Summary

  • John Hunt, MD is a pediatrician, pulmonologist, allergist/immunologist who resigned his tenured academic position when the insane took over the asylum. He’s been a CEO, CMO, CSO, CFO of small and mid-cap companies. He’s an investor, and author of Assume the Physician, and co-author with Doug Casey of Drug Lord and other novels. If he has a superpower, it’s the ability to see through the thick clouds of BS that surround us. He examines the world through the lens of a diagnostician. His passion is to re-invigorate the doctor-patient relationship, and so he explores the foundations of the medical system to discover where, how and why those foundations have failed.
