Dr. Michelle Cohen at cbc.ca on Naturopaths: Misleading, Misrepresentation, Sowing Confusion

here, criticism of Canadian naturopathy:

001. MD Cohen writes at cbc.ca in "Why Can Naturopaths Mislead the Public About Their Credentials? Because No One Bothers to Stop Them" (2018-11-05):

"Canadian doctors will tell you that have noticed an uptick in health provider misrepresentation over the past several years [...] the College of Physicians and Surgeons of New Brunswick recently conducted an investigation and found that 41 per cent of the province's naturopaths were using restricted terms like 'physician' and 'medical practitioner' in contravention of New Brunswick's Medical Act [...] their representative organizations model the same behavior [...]";

well, when you let nonsense regulate itself, what do you think happens?

"using the terms 'naturopathic' and 'medical' as if they are interchangeable is a bait and switch designed to confuse [...] 'naturopathy' be a sufficient descriptor. The only reason to start throwing the term 'medical' around is to deliberately sow confusion about your education [...]";

hear, hear.
