I had my own experience with a "Key Thought Leader (KTL)." He continually refused my requests for insulin and every time I would see him he would say that I had diabetes because I was fat and then he would cycled me through another mix of triple oral medications never actually admitting that nothing worked. He also suggested I needed to get my 53 year old body down to 8% bodyfat. When I found out he had accepted $250,000 in payments form pharmaceutical companies I realized that a KTL doesn't work for their patients.
