Welcome!
This is the discussion area for and the archive of my newsletter The Renegade Doctor.
I started publishing a newsletter in March of 2011 and distribute it exclusively to my opt-in email list each week.
Not only will subscribers get to read content that isn’t available in my open-public blog, but there are lots of bonuses, specials and extras, too.
For example, I recently gave a free bottle of Omega-3 fish oil away to each subscriber — and I even paid the postage!
Like some other company said, “Membership Has It’s Privileges” — so don’t be shy. Sign up using the form in the upper right corner. It’s totally free and you can opt-out at any time.
I hope you will enjoy my weekly newsletter “The Renegade Doctor!”
Take care and be happy!
