Dr. Aseem Malhotra is one of the many opponents of this corrupt system, claiming that the lack of transparency of information being handed down by the drug companies to doctors is profound. He describes the pharmaceutical industry as a \u201cprofit making business\u201d that is \u201ccreating an epidemic of misinformed doctors.\u201d Dr. Aseem is a United Kingdom National Health Service cardiologist, as well as a King\u2019s Fund health think tank trustee.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, it is quite true that pharmaceutical companies often do not have the patient\u2019s best interest in mind.
