"Dynamic team of VM providers helps medical center earn highest survival rate worldwide for pancreatic cancer patients."
You cited the VM story in your reply - the interesting thing is that they do not report what that "survival rate" might be - only that they successfully perform the surgery without death on the operating table.
Dr William Kelley, a dentist, successfully treated his own pancreatic cancer with digestive enzymes, and then went on to successfully treat many others, not only with pancreatic cancer, but other cancers. He was shut down.
A Dr. Nickolas Gonzalez, an MD who was a student of Dr Kelley's, is now persuing this with NCI grant money. This is an alternative treatment that is more than 100 years old, but has been suppressed, though it has proven success.
This treatment is often used, either by itself or complementary to other treatment protocols in Mexican clinics.
Many alternative treatments that work are used in this country, but under the radar. Occasionally these get "nailed" by the establishment and lies have actually been created to aid in the suppression. Some of those most outspoken about the suppression are MD's who have been a part of the establishment, but who have become knowledgeable about the successful alternatives.
If you were not so protective of "great American medicine" you might search out some of this yourself. There are many case histories citing suppression by the establishment. It really is all about money.
And why should we not have the freedom to choose what our medical care should be and who should provide it with what? Why do we have to be dependent on a system that condones killing with bad medicine? A system that suppresses SAFE HEALTH Alternatives? Patients should not have to go to Mexico to get viable, life saving treatments.
"The VM survival results after the Whipple resection for pancreatic cancer followed by the “VM protocol” of chemotherapy and radiation therapy were published in the May issue of The American Journal of Surgery. The results showed that Virginia Mason had the highest survival rates for patients."
