Parkinson's requires a doctor who specializes in nervous system disorders (neurologist).

So you find it puzzling that a radiation oncologist would be speaking as an expert on the use of alternative medicine to treat Parkinson's, or congestive heart failure, or liver failure? And that he would suggest you take his advise over that of a doctor who actually might practice in the area. I did wonder how he would feel about a podiatrist giving a talk about how the radiation oncologists in the area are treating cancer wrong and patients should just take some vitamins he could suggest.
