A British TV doctor known for his advocacy for intermittent fasting diets has disappeared while on vacation on a Greek island, with a search operation underway Thursday.
Michael Mosley, who regularly appears as a health expert on U.K. networks, went missing on the island of Symi, his agent confirmed to the Press Association. The 67-year-old vanished after going for a coastal walk on Wednesday afternoon, according to The Daily Mail, a paper for which Mosley is a columnist.
Mosley’s wife Clare Bailey, who is also a doctor, raised the alarm after he failed to return by 7:30 p.m. local time on Wednesday—around six hours after he set out on his walk, the Mail reports. Multiple agencies joined the search operation Thursday which included the use of drones and the support of volunteers.
