> Since you are communicating on PB over the Internet, I assume you have a computer and access to the Internet. Why don't you do a Google search on Dr. Elliot S. Gershon? He is one of the most highly respected psychiatrists in the country.---------------------------------------------
And comb through 925 entries to dechiper what sponsorship and affiliations that he has with the pharmecutical industry when a simple statement of full and complete disclosure by him or his staff would answer a simple question?
No one here is doubting his crentials. What is in need of clarification is to what extent one is paid or might perhaps be otherwise influenced directly or indirectly by the pharmecutical industries.
In this day of commercially driven lecuture circuts and similar it almost goes without saying that transparency should be welcomed by the profession itself.
