For sure, when I read about doctors being banned from practicing it was a shock in itself and if it is not the case in US that's great. But isn't there a binding structure which they have to follow? If I had cancer for instance and Doctor gave me herbs and not chemotherapy and I am on death bed, he wouldn't be held liable?

Liability in the US is tort law, meaning the family would have to sue and then prove that the doctor had not followed sound scientific principles AND had not provided information on alternatives to his planned therapy to allow the patient to make an informed choice.  If an adult were to elect to use prayer and fasting or a dietary therapy as long as the physician had informed him or her of the alternatives the physician is blameless.  I once had a patient refuse HIV meds for years until he finally died of the disease; that was his choice not mine.  If, on the other hand, I advise a patient to use an unproven therapy and do NOT make him aware that this is unproven and alternatives are available and what they are, then I am liable for I have failed to provide him with the information needed to make the choice.

This would also apply pretty much to licensure issues unless the therapy were totally discredited by scientific study, then the medical board of the state might well act.

Dr. Linus Pauling was a brilliant chemist and his first Nobel Prize, awarded for his determination of an element of protein three dimensional structure, was well deserved as was his second, a Nobel Peace Prize, awarded for his antinuclear activism.  That being said his later work concerning "orthomolecular psychiatry" and vitamin C and colds has been soundly discredited by randomized, blinded and controlled scientific studies.  Like many brilliant men, Albert Einstein included they are limited in their fields of expertise and when outside of them can appear great fools because of the credulity of the unsophisticated regarding the limitations of their knowledge.

Here is on Dr Simoncini and there's Dr Hamer from Germany amongst others.

Dr. Tullio Simoncini is a Rome born physician. To be accurate, he is a  former physician. He was an oncologist, surrounded by patients who have  heard the rumors of his cancer treatments and come from all corners of  the world. He was the first person in medical history to discover cancer  is caused by a fungus called candida albicans.

At the same time, physicians, drug companies and academic societies that  could not eradicate cancer (malignant tumors) with chemotherapy and  radiation therapy, and suffered enormous cuts in profits because of the  Simncini Protocol, consider the possibility of Dr. Simoncini eradicating  or curing cancer (malignant tumors) as a serious threat to their  profits.

As a result, Simoncini had his doctor’s license revoked.

Now, in Japan, the world’s first Simoncini Cancer Center utilizing Dr.  Simoncini’s “Simoncini Protocol will be opened. Furthermore,  Chironcology Inc. will open an official training school for the  instruction of the “Simoncini Protocol”, in order to provide aid to as  many cancer refugees with nowhere else to go.

I think everybody knows by now that an Oncologist is not allowed to discourage a patient not to have chemotherapy or radiation and treat them with 'other'.

Dates, names.. people who have been confronted with this know very well . Others will not accept it for what it is and make up other reasons why...that's life**

I stand by what I know and if you are a Doctor you know 'the rules'. I am sure you can put your finger on data much quicker than I.

As you said, you heard most amazing crap and they are still practicing.

Of course they are because they did not put it into practice. If they had according to their best knowledge and conscience advised their patients to follow any other path except what is approved by medial boards etc. they would not be still practicing.
