Dr. Petropanagos discusses the benefits, risks, ethical concerns and societal implications of this practice to provide family physicians with the tools to offer balanced information to clients who seek it. Dr. Petropanagos has co-authored an analysis article with Alana Cattapan MA, Françoise Baylis PhD, Arthur Leader MD, published in CMAJ on April 13, 2015.
