+Despite being frequently referred to as "Doctor" San, his medical credentials have been disputed. He felt that other doctors relied too much on medication that balanced emotions, putting them through life in a "gray tone," positing that they were "probably killing the artists of the future."[(cite:s04e03>[[s04e03]])] Dr. San did not take medical insurance for his treatments, which cost $50 a session, often several times a day.[(cite:s04e04>[[s04e04]])]
+===== History =====
+In January 2014, Heidecker began to complain of a numbness in his foot.[(cite:s04e01>[[s04e01]])] After a recommendation from [[tims_nephew|his nephew]],[(cite:s04e02>[[s04e02]])] Heidecker met with San, who immediately took him under his care.[(cite:s04e03)] Stating that Heidecker had to be under constant medical observation for 72 hours, San was brought onto Heidecker's movie review show //[[ocatc]]// during [[s04e03|S04E03]]. Heidecker also declared that San was now a permanent part of the show,[(cite:s04e03)] which was revamped into //[[onalternativemedicine]]//.[(cite:s04e04)]
+However, Heidecker soon discovered that the needles used by San were unsanitized, leading to Heidecker developing infected sores at the points of insertion. Heidecker cut ties with San, threatening legal action. San subsequently went into hiding, with Heidecker demanding that viewers of //On Cinema// send in any known information as to San's whereabouts. Heidecker pledged that they would never speak of San again on the show.[(cite:s04e05>[[s04e05]])]
+After [[ayaka]] returned to the United States with [[tch]] and married Tim, she began to work for Dr. San. Tim, oblivious, thought Ayaka was working for a Dr. Luther, mistaking her pronunciation of "Luther San" as a Japanese honorific ("Luther-san"). However, [[gregg]] discovered Dr. Luther's identity after he and Ayaka were invited to a "wellness picnic." Gregg informed Tim, who was enraged that Dr. San had been "right under my nose" all along.[(cite:s07e03>[[s07e03]])] However, Tim chose to forgive Dr. San for his past transgressions, and hired him as a full-time live-in doctor, treating Tom Cruise Jr.'s growing health problems.[(cite:s07e04>[[s07e04]])]
