    @jegga not sure that is entirely fair...this is an industry where part of thier pay is driven by them delivering a baby or less pay if the Dr has to do it.

    Most people I know have nothing but utmost admiration and respect for thiers, with the care and mum and baby at the forefront of everything, however I think like with anything, there will be some nutters, and this one sounds like a dumbarse.

    I heard they were saying she may need re-training and to go over the processes...I suspect lack of knowledge about how to birth is least of her problems...makes you wonder how many she has gotten away with giving placebos.

    It would be unfair if I said all of them are dangerous nutters, a decent minority are anti vaxx, militant about homebirths , anti science and other dangerous quackery . The one we used was good, I know other people who came across these sorts of loons.

    This loon was behind getting Helen Clark when she was health minister to kick the dr out of the delivery room and midwifes being in charge of home births, she was also an anti vaxxer, anti science and a socialist '

    So the homeopath had no "published credibility"

    Really?

    "Published" is redundant in that sentence anyway.

    "Hes not prescribing drugs" No the crook is prescribing water . This explains the scam quite nicely http://darryl-cunningham.blogspot.com/2010/06/homeopathy.html

    The man contradicts himself:

    "We use homeopathic remedies. I am trying to help the people."

    @booboo isnt there evidence about the use of placebo's works on some ailments and/or people?

    HAve to assume some of those same people are the ones who are likely to benefit from pretend Dr's?

    There is evidence that homeopathy doesn't even work as well as placebo.

    Read 'Bad Science' by Ben Goldacre

    C'mon cut her some slack. Human excrement is a well known homeopathic remedy for everything from cold sores to cancer

    @jegga
    A level 10 tertiary Doctoral Degree was required to obtain the title 'doctor' in New Zealand.

    Rehan's Diploma in Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery from Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar Bihar University in India only translates to a level seven graduate diploma, certificate or bachelors degree.

    Rehan said Dr Preet was simply a nickname to avoid confusion over the pronunciation of his name, but he was free to use the title as it had been awarded to him in India.

    "Why is it a problem?" he asked Stuff.

    At the risk of upsetting people who don't understand why generalisations tend to exist, none of that surprises me.

    @booboo that's actually a pretty funny read. 35 shows is astonishing though. That's not even including the spirit weekends!

    with regard to that Psychic article above, that is on dangerous ground as Hypnotherapists, EFT etc...these guys are doing stuff on Skype with people in other countries, particularly the US, so opens a whole can of legal worms there.

    Think I have mentioned in this thread, some of these ones claim to be able to 'cure' allergies (such as nut allergies)
