Im a huge fan of one of my favorite lecturers at UCT. I also fondly remember Profs Belonje, Gevers, Koeslag (oh that hilarious key sole scratch he gave you Susan to confirm a good Babinski reflex after you accidentally head-butted a fire hydrant ... Ouch ! :) ) and the genteel prof Epstein. You gotta love these men. This for me is at the core of what Prof Noakes says the current pharmacological model that allows patients to get sick and only then treat them with one or other chemical. It’s a model that clearly doesn’t work, because it doesn’t try to understand what caused the disease in the first place. Without that knowledge, medicine is powerless to prevent disease. So this model makes us doctors of disease, not health. Yudhika I will believe in Prof Tim Noakes any day...
