Is Dr. Murthy a renown expert at treating patients or researching diseases? No, not at all, Barrasso said. Has be actually built a career teaching medicine, or leading public health organizations? No, not yet. In fact, Dr. Murthy only completed his medical training, his residency, in 2006, just eight years ago, he said. The majority of his career has been spent not as a doctor treating patients, but as an activist. An activist focused on gun control and political campaigns. But Democrats defended the nomination by saying Murthy was qualified. Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.), who represents Murthys home state, said the nominee is as qualified as anyone has ever been.
