wish everybody out there
health and happiness during
this holiday season!
Have you been told you need a coronary artery bypass graft. My site tells why you need to get a second opinion. Please read it carefully, it may save your life or the life of someone you love.
The trouble was, its very first TV commercial with Dr. Jarvik was downright deceptive. It suggested that he was rowing a racing shell across a mountain lake when he was not, in fact, rowing. A stunt double was at the oars. And while the commercials have Dr. Jarvik enthusing over Lipitor “as a doctor and a dad,” he is actually an inventor and researcher. He has a medical degree, but did not go through residency training and is not licensed to practice medicine or prescribe drugs.
The commercials also fail to note that Dr. Jarvik only started taking Lipitor about a month after he started touting its virtues under a contract that would pay him a minimum of $1.35 million over two years.
Rather than fight with the House Energy and Commerce Committee, Pfizer folded its tent and ended the ad campaign. The committee plans to continue its investigations of the Lipitor marketing campaign and of possible deception in other drug advertising aimed at consumers. We encourage the committee to delve deeply.

Hi. You invited me to view your blog, so here I am. I have a question. Did you do something else besides not getting a CABG to help you be healthy now? What did the second opinion recommend? Maybe I'm missing the point, but all I'm reading is your advice to get a second opinion and not have surgery. Thanks.
Jeff - pardon my premature question. I cruised your blogchives and found references to Dr. Howard Wayne and have now found his website. I'm looking forward to learning more. So glad you are doing well without surgery! Angels are always a nice help too!
