Overview

The doctor who leads the movement to restore sanity to American medicine explains why we must rid it of identity politics. Wokeness has taken over the medical establishment of the United States—and the future of healthcare hangs in the balance. So does the health of every American. Dr. Stanley Goldfarb, a distinguished nephrologist and medical school dean, was cancelled for questioning the effect that DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) was having on medical schools and the wider world of medicine. But Dr. Goldfarb didn’t stay cancelled. He founded Do No Harm, the nation’s leading organization in the fight to protect healthcare from the disastrous consequences of identity politics. Dr. Goldfarb refused to accept the repurposing of medical schools as places to produce gun control and climate change activists rather than doctors whose job it is to heal the sick. In Doing Great Harm?, he exposes the ways in which identity politics, DEI, and gender radicalism have infected medical schools and the practice of medicine. Besides doing a disservice to the many outstanding physicians of color, identity politics have dismantled standards for admission to medical school, decreased the quality of medical students, increased the number of incompetent doctors throughout the land, and enabled the chemical and surgical mutilation of minors. A radical, divisive, and discriminatory ideology has captured the commanding heights of the medical profession. But Americans don’t want this in healthcare any more than they do in public safety or education—and neither do most physicians. Dr. Stanley Goldfarb calls woke medicine what it is: dangerous, un-American…and profoundly harmful.

As chairman of Do No Harm, Dr. Goldfarb has published widely in various periodicals including the Wall Street Journal, City Journal, the New York Post, and The Free Press on the threats to medical education and medical care in the United States posed by introduction of critical race theory into these enterprises.

Do No Harm is committed to the welfare and safety of these children by demanding that healthcare institutions follow the science and severely restrict this potentially harmful form of treatment.
