Ghostwriting and Big Pharma

[Guest guest]

About 20 years ago, a friend who had just become a new physician was offered

several hundred dollars to deliver a speech for a drug company.

I can still remember her sharing this story. She was enraged and declined the

offer saying " I didn't even write the speech! They wrote it! and I didn't agree

with what it said. So I said I'm not doing this! "

She had the integrity to not accept the money to deliver a speech she didn't

agree with. And believe me she needed the money cause she was in debt to her

ears from medical school.

About 40 years ago I was offered an all-expense paid trip to Germany by a drug company! I too turned it down. Chapter Seven of my book is entitled Big Pharma, the FDA, and the Medical Profession: An Unholy, Very Lucrative Alliance. Read and have your eyes opened. The Truth About Statins will be released one month from today.Barbara , MD Sent from my iPad
