Medical Mythology
The Evolution of Modern Medical Practice and Its Devolution into Religious Dogma
Rudy J. Triana, Jr., M.D., F.A.C.S. · Triple Board Certified Physician
Drawing on twenty-seven years of clinical practice, surgeon Rudy J. Triana, Jr., M.D. explores the historical, scientific, and economic forces that transformed medicine from a method of inquiry into a system in which challenging accepted doctrine can carry professional consequences.
Distinguishing True Science from Institutional Dogma
Medical Mythology is a provocative examination of how modern medicine — once grounded in scientific inquiry and individualized patient care — has increasingly become shaped by institutional authority, financial incentives, pharmaceutical influence, and unquestioned consensus.
Through extensively referenced research, firsthand clinical experiences, and examinations of pharmaceutical medicine, nutrition, functional medicine, COVID-era policies, medical iatrogenesis, and the economics of healthcare, the book asks readers to distinguish true science from institutional dogma.
Ultimately, this is not an argument against medicine, but a physician's call to reclaim it — returning curiosity, scientific skepticism, clinical judgment, and the individual patient to the center of medical practice.
"Doctors are men who prescribe medicines of which they know little, to cure diseases of which they know less, in human beings of whom they know nothing."
