Excellent! It happened in my profession too; I.e., the sovietization aspect of replacing leadership and Board positions with politburo clowns. Lysenkoism has deep roots.
The smartest medical school professor I ever knew was Don Deldin, MD, Chief of Internal Medicine at Southwestern Medical School encouraged all of his residents to pass the Internal Medicine Boards, although he said the "Boards" do not make the best doctors. By the way, Dr. Seldin did not have his medicine boards. The reason being, he took his written boards and easily passed. When he went to Chicago to take his oral boards he was presented a difficult case or his diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Seldin made the diagnosis, but was told his "answer was incorrect". Dr. Seldin then challenged the examiner and told him why his diagnosis was correct and the examiner was wrong. THe examiner "failed" Dr. Seldin. Dr.eldin appealed the failing of his boards to the ABIM. THe result of the appeal was that Dr. Seldin's diagnosis was correct, "but he should not have challenged the examiner", so he still failed. Dr. Seldin never took the boards again stating he knew more than the ABIM, so why continue to send them any money because HE DID NOT NEED THE BOARDS to continue to do what he did. I agree with r. Seldin.
Peter McCullough is a great physician and can teach the ABIM more than they can learn , for lack of a better term. Dr. Seldin is agreat example
