An article on a website does not constitute evidence sorry, I have no faith in an author's ability to properly interpret the results of scientific research and write about it, since the # of times when they get it right is almost zero. There's a handful of science writers I trust, otherwise you have to go right to the source.
As for a doctor who set out to disprove something and became convinced, that is basically an appeal to authority... not that that's necessarily wrong to do in the right contexts, but why should I give his conclusions more weight than the conclusions of (say) the paper we've been discussing?
