When he was practicing medicine, Dr. Atlas was a leading expert on the use of MRIs for diagnosing neurological disorders. He is not, in fact, more qualified to discuss epidemiology than the majority of epidemiologists who disagree with his advice.
His job since 2012 involves writing on health issues for the Hoover Institution, a conservative think tank with a mission statement that commits it to support private enterprise and personal freedom. He has written two books against “Obamacare.” So, he is not exactly a politically-neutral expert when he calls for government to reduce its role in health care.
