'''{{FULLPAGENAME}}''', {{MD}}, ({{LifeData|birth=1889-07-22|birthplace=St. Louis, MI|death=1976-09-27|deathplace=Chicaco, IL}}) was an American physician and editor of the ''Journal of the American Medical Association'' (''[[JAMA]]'') from 1924 to 1950.<ref name="WP">{{REFweb

Fishbein is vilified in the chiropractic community due to his principal role in founding and propagating the campaign to suppress and end chiropractic as a profession due to its basis in pseudoscientific practices.<ref name="WP"/><ref>Donahue, (1996), 16(1):39-49.</ref>

== Quacks<ref name="WP"/> ==
He was also notable due to his affinity for exposing quacks, notably the goat-gland surgeon John R. Brinkley, and campaigning for regulation of medical devices. His book ''Fads and Quackery in Healing'' debunks homeopathy, osteopathy, chiropractic, Christian Science, radionics and other dubious medical practices.<ref>{{REFjournal

In 1938, Fishbein authored a two-part article "Modern Medical Charlatans" in the journal ''Hygeia'' which criticized the quackery of Brinkley.<ref>{{REFjournal
