This Cancer expert is no expert.

The quack probably has patients waiting to see him and he doesnt know “stuff” from Shinola.

He should have his license pulled.

There is only one form of compassion I would have given him. I would that given him the choice of the caliber of bullet he would like his head blown off with.
