The Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons (formerly the Medical Sentinel) is the independent peer-reviewed medical journal of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons.
It has often been in the news on medical issues relating to immigration, vaccines, abortion, homosexuality, cholesterol and radiation. The Journal has sparked criticism by liberals and organizations who may dislike or disagree with the data and results presented.[1] This journal has been labelled "fundamentally flawed" by Quackwatch.org,[2] which has also criticized liberal publications such as the Huffington Post and Whole Foods' trade publication.
The Journal is an open-access journal, meaning that unlike other, hard-to-access and expensive to obtain scientific journals, it is made available to the public over the internet without charge. It is among a growing number of open-access journals.[3]
