If you ascribe to the 25-year-old notion that Dr. Andy Wakefield is a discredited, debunked, delusional, dangerous, deranged doctor who lost his license for spreading misinformation across the planet, please watch this. (You’ll enjoy it even more if you disagree with the former statement.)

Drs. Marik and Wakefield’s conversation shows both men to be classy, knowledgeable, and immensely compassionate human beings.

From the Show Notes

Dr. Andy Wakefield has long been one of the most controversial figures in modern medicine. A former gastrointestinal surgeon, Dr. Wakefield became globally known after publishing a 1998 paper in The Lancetdescribing a striking pattern observed in a small group of children: gastrointestinal symptoms and developmental regression appearing after MMR vaccination.

Dr. Paul Marik welcomes Dr. Wakefield for a timely conversation about his early research, the backlash that followed, and how his voice continues to resonate in today’s medical climate. They’ll also explore Protocol 7 (with a clip), Wakefield’s new award-winning film that marks his transition from researcher to filmmaker.
