He also had a series of podcast interviews about this with Tom Dayspring.

I believe his explanations are all mainstream, except he favors treating LDL and LP(a) more aggressively than normal doctors

Epstein files showed he neglected to visit his seriously sick son because he was hanging out with Epstein. He still knows his stuff, asshole or not.
1700 mentions of his name in the Epstein files that Trump released.
