Critical Thinking in Medicine

Blog

There are thousands of claims in healthcare, most are untrue. Your inability to assess these claims for yourself renders you vulnerable to experts. The purpose of my blog is to apply Critical Thinking to medicine to help you evaluate claims for yourself. Each post aims to provide you with good information (clear, understandable, accurate, unbiased, relevant, and complete), and instruct you on how to distinguish good evidence from bad evidence. Below, find my most recent posts and a sign-up form. Also don't hesitate to explore my lectures on YouTube.
