个人简介
Fisher chaired the World Health Organisation's working group on homeopathy and served on their Expert Advisory Panel on Traditional and Complementary Medicine
As a prominent practitioner of alternative medicine he was frequently criticised by sceptics.[5][6] In 2006 he participated in a debate with science writer Ben Goldacre at the Natural History Museum on Does Homeopathy Work?[7] and his contribution was described by evidence-based medicine campaigner David Colquhoun as "shameless cherry-picking of the evidence".[8] His claim that randomised controlled trials "cannot capture the possible benefits of homeopathy" and his defense of the disproven "water memory" hypothesis of homeopathic medicine was critiqued by Rose Shapiro in her book Suckers.[9] Fisher had said of sceptics, "What they prefer to do is to blog, or tweet, so they can make nasty sneering public remarks and you can’t come back at them."
Fisher was awarded the Polish Academy of Medicine's Albert Schweitzer Gold Medal in 2007.
He had two daughters, Lily and Eve, from his marriage to Nina Oxenham, from whom he was divorced in 2015.
Fisher's other interests were gardening, sailing, swimming, skiing and scuba diving. As well as English, he spoke French and Afrikaans, along with Dutch as a child.
