I recommend being careful with Maté. He's worth listening to inasmuch as he has unique experience and some clearly legitimate grievances with the medical establishment, but he also seems indifferent to the limits of his own knowledge. In my (layman's) opinion he tends to be too credulous toward fringe theories/therapies and to make sweeping, radical generalizations that don't comport with the broader evidence base. For instance, his views on ADHD were called "worse than wrong" by Russell Barkley, who is arguably the leading expert on ADHD [1].
