The central point of his article is that he went to a doctor who followed the guidelines, tested him and found he wasn't at risk for heart disease.
But then he went to another, very expensive concierge doctor, who did special extra tests, and discovered that he was likely to develop heart disease and have a heart attack.
Therefore he is arguing that THE STANDARD GUIDELINES ARE WRONG AND EVEN IF YOU DO EVERYTHING RIGHT AND YOUR DOCTOR CONFIRMS IT YOU MAY BE LIKELY TO DIE OF HEART DISEASE ANYWAY, SO ONLY THE SPECIAL EXTRA TESTS CAN REVEAL THE TRUTH.
I want a second opinion from a doctor. Is this true? Is this for real? Because it smells funny.
Hang on a second.
