No.
Room Conversation -- October 25, 1972, Vrndavana:

Gurudāsa: Did you ever...

Prabhupāda: Dr. Rao you know?

Indian man: I know Dr. Rao.

Prabhupāda: He is a...

Indian man: (indistinct)

Prabhupāda: Yes, he is a scientist.

Indian man: He is a scientist or something. What's he doing now about that machine?

Gurudāsa: Have you ever continued the correspondence with that heart surgeon?

Prabhupāda: No.

Gurudāsa: He was not serious?

Prabhupāda: No, he admitted. He admitted that "You know better than us."

Gurudāsa: So then why he didn't scientifically try to find out more?

Prabhupāda: Our process of presentation is different. Their process is different. But they can appreciate that we know better than them. The same example: just like we accept cow dung is pure. Why pure? Because Vedas says. The scientific way is not like that. Is not that?

Indian man: Yes.

Prabhupāda: They must prove by analysis, by chemical analysis. There is difference between the modern scientist and our process of understanding.
