Physician punished for custom Lyme Disease treatment
Categories: Diet & Weight Loss
In Connecticut, a physician was fined $10,000 and reprimanded recently for using his own process for treating Lyme Disease. Although patients raved about it, the state medical establishment did not.Dr. Charles Ray Jones prescribed antibiotics for two young children after just a phone consultation and months before he actually examined the children.
In addition, Dr. Jones failed medical standards by rejecting test results that found both children to not have Lyme Disease. Jones insisted that long-term antibiotic courses are the best remedy for Lyme Disease infections. He's reportedly treated 10,000 patients with the condition.
Do you think Dr. Jones breached ethics be prescribing medicine without performing an actual exam?
