I frequently refer to one of the most famous medical quotes made in last century by a Harvard professor Dr Herbert Lay in 1969.
Five decades have gone since this observation was made by Dr Ley .Mind you ,Dr Ley is not a lay person , he was heading the same FDA which he targeted ! I guess when Dr Ley made this statement there was little commercialization in pharma Industry . Now along with it an entirely new field of medical device industry has grown to gargantuan proportions !
I wonder what Dr Herbert Ley would have to say as on 2014 !
Many modern medical professionals would shrug these views as controversial , pessimistic and negative forces of science !
Here I borrow my own quote from venkat@thoughts
Dr.S.Venkatesan MD
