Good try, but I see two obvious flaws in your comeback. Firstly, oncologists focus on treatment of cancer, not prevention. Secondly, if your oncologist is a man, he will most likely contract prostate cancer during his lifetime and a woman might get due to unfortunate genes get breast cancer. Does it make them any less credible?
Not to mention occupational exposures and other types of exposures throughout their lives, their general genetic makeup and so on.
Logic is logic regardless of who is presenting it.
I'll not fire every oncologist who's had cancer and hire people who's never had cancer before to take their place. That's crazy.
