quackerywatch quackerywatch dr terry polevoy s contribution to the understanding of alternative medicine its risks its practitioners and its quacks instead of taking the blame for all of organized medicine s problems and claims that we kill hundreds of thousands of patients every year in north america polevoy rises above it all and lets you decide who is right monday october 15 2007 patricia chavez speaks about her mother s death at the hands of hulda clark clipped from www mandjshow com alternative cancer treatments is the medical establishment wrong about cancer mike and juliet of fox tv s morning show look at alternative treatments that advocates say may save your life but critics warn could kill you dr stephen barrett and others appear in this clip from part of the show patricia

10 20 am 4 comments thursday june 29 2006 why do you need quackerywatch quackerywatch is the creation of dr terry polevoy a canadian medical doctor who lives and works in the kitchener waterloo ontario he graduated from michigan state university where he obtained his b s and then completed his medical degree at the wayne state university school of medicine in detroit he completed his pediatric residency at the university of western ontario and at the hospital for sick children in toronto he became interested in alternative medicine early on in his practice in both the united states and in canada after many years of experience he became totally disillusioned with the growth of blatant quackery in medicine and the acceptance of bogus practices by mainstream medical organizations and government funded institutions in 1997 dr polevoy started his first web site that included a section on alternative medicine known as www healthwatcher net he then expanded his web presence to add several other separate sites these include www quackerywatch com www chirowatch com www pigpills com in april 2003 he co authored the e book called pig pills inc with medical reporter marvin ross and former health canada inspector and private detective ron reinhold the book is the result of a two and a half year investigation of the tony stephan and david hardy and a nutraceutical known as empowerplus the publication of the book resulted in major actions by health canada against the synergy group of canada and their truehope suppport organizations they sold this concoction to unwary customers who had serious mental health problems their research did not have the approval of health canada dr polevoy has appeared numerous times on major north american television and radio programs to discuss medical quackery and scams in the nutraceutical and weight loss industries he is perhaps better known to u s viewers for his two part tony brown s journal on pbs tv that he did with stephen barrett on cancer quack hulda clark and her crazy theories and devices in march 2004 dr polevoy was a featured guest on the mitch albom radio show in detroit to talk about plastic surgery scams in texas and california on canadian tv he has helped both ctv and cbc with news specials on diet scams and medical quackery in a major documentary about truehope which ran on discovery health in canada as well as on other cable networks in the u s dr polevoy was a prime force in convincing the government to investigate their organization his efforts to expose major cancer quackery other health scams and in particular anti vaccine activities of alternative medical practitioners has made him one of the most hated health professionals by those who practice quackery and deceive their patients a special pet project that is closely tied with his day to day medical practice is the international skin cancer awareness network iscan this web site focuses on the growth of the sunbed industry in north america and the increased risk of skin cancer and other problems created by the overexposure of children and young adults to artificial tanning devices in particular the growth of malignant melanoma and his experiences in his own family with this horrible cancer have helped motivate dr polevoy to help educate the public and politicians to the dangers caused by sunbeds and those who promote them to our children feature articles about dr polevoy challenging quacks and frauds medical post november 2 2004 by barbara kermode scott dr terry polevoy is a self appointed health watchdog he investigates and challenges products services and theories that are marketed with claims he believes to be false unsubstantiated or even illegal the original article was pulled from the medical post s web site in december 2004 allegedly because one of the people mentioned in the article called the publisher and demanded that it be removed if i guess right he is now consulting his lawyer to shore up his defense against numerous legal charges made against him by health canada links to the discussion on our web site are here raid medical post sept 02 2003 by barbara kermode scott first by halting a calgary trial and then by seizing product shipments health canada has pulled the plug on a controversial neutraceutical being sold as a treatment for mental health disorders now protractors and supporters of the product are making their concerns heard cures of last resort eye weekly april 20 2000 by nate hendley alternative cancer therapies bring high priced hope and deadly

june 30 2005 tragic victims of medical quackery tyrell dueck 13 year old boy from saskatchewan tyrell dueck died after his parents were advised by cancer quacks to go to tijuana instead of living with an amputed leg that was riddled with bone cancer the case involved religious fundamentalists a chiropractor who was also an mp and of course the ccrg in ottawa scores of interviews and phone in shows across canada added to the story as the nation watched of course years later his death seems to have been forgotten the cancer quacks are still operating in ottawa and tijuana untouched by the government or consumer protection agencies for more details sandra schmirler champion curler age 36 as she neared the end of her fight with cancer curler sandra schmirler travelled to ottawa for a last ditch attempt at treatment there the former olympian sought out the services of the canadian cancer research group ccrg a controversial medical centre that practises alternative cancer therapies in spite of schmirler s unsuccessful treatment william o neill ceo of ccrg says his centre is at the forefront of cancer research he describes his outfit as the largest private cancer think tank research lab treatment development laboratory and outpatient treatment centre in the country founded in 1992 the ccrg saw about 2 000 patients last year these patients paid fees ranged from nothing to a maximum of 10 000 for up to 12 months of treatment the treatments schmirler received cost between 3 000 and 4 000 more about the ccrg and bill o neill complaint against the ccrg with detailed documents hope monaghan died of brain tumor age 3 dave wickware bragged on curezone com that he gave a ginseng product to the family and it seemed to help this poor unfortunate girl near the end of her life unfortunately for dave and his associate lu lanzon who practiced in the same office in waterloo ontario it proved to be nothing more than an attempt to spread the word about their practice it didn t help hope at all wickware on quackerywatch jake and willy harms in wheel chairs ravi devgan scammed a poor mexican mennonite family from wallaceburg ontario out of 40 000 to treat their two 13 year old kids who were born with cerebral palsy he did this even after his medical registration was revoked his history of scamming patients goes back over one decade the college of physicians and surgeons of ontario should be ashamed of themselves he was arrested on july 1 2005 and charged with fraud again let s hope that this will be the last time that devgan sees the light of day more on
