to I hate RateMDs, edi...@nationalreviewofmedicine.com
The following is a search for articles and letters about RateMDs.com
that are available from Canada's National Review of Medicine. From the
short review it's obvious to me that RateMDs creator, John
Swapceinski, loves the publicity. It's potentially easy to sabotage
their system by creating glowing reports, even of non-existent
doctors, dentists, or chiropractors. Just make up a name of your
choice, give then a fake title, and then you've done the job that
should have been done months ago.

Here's a search you should check from time to time of the NRM's web
site:

I challenge any health professional who is concerned that they have
been defamed by anonymous posters to start posting fictitious names to
RateMDs.com to destroy any little credibility that they have left.
John Swapceinski has no way to control who posts, and no way to know
if the posts made are for real health professionals. Unfortunately,
when some doctors are defamed, they have no way to know who made the
post.

Also, complaints should be filed with any regulatory body of the
"doctors" who allow their names and offices to be used by RateMDs.com
in their Google ads. Anyone who allows their professional office to
be used by RateMds.com to advertise themselves should be avoided.

Good luck, and send us your posts or links when you send them to
RateMDs.com.

Also, let NRM's Sam Solomon know what you have done. E-mail him at
edi...@nationalreviewofmedicine.com

Thanks for doing the right thing.
