No, but doctors has to disclose it and in addition to that, they should only lose their license if it's proven to harm the patient.

Doctor should be giving factual advice and should provide correct information to the patient and not have a bias / opinion on their condition

 @9ZRFRY4answered…10mos10MO

Yes, in issues where there is a clear consensus and the doctor should lose their medical license. However, for issues where a method or process is new and still being investigated and discovered, they should only be penalized if it is not disclosed that the advice contradicts contemporary scientific consensus.

No, but only after first providing health advice in line with contemporary scientific consensus.
