So there's Peggy. I'm sure you've all seen her story. Cancer Treatment Centers of America told her she had no "expiration" date, and they fixed her all up (which, of course, is a wonderful thing). She goes on to say, "I felt like I was surrounded by friends and people who really cared and who gave me hope". They keyword here, being "hope". The problem here is that a banner runs across the top of the TV ads, saying that you shouldn't expect these results. And a pop-up immediately displays on their web page saying: "Those results may not be typical or expected for the particular disease type described in this testimonial".
So, what exactly are they saying? It's a place that gives you hope, but don't hope to get any results? As far as I'm concerned their ads reek of deception.
Our friends were romanced into the Cancer Center for America in Tulsa. After a diagnosis of terminal liver cancer by world reknown University of Minnesota physicians, CCA claimed the UofM was “smoking something” and “this man can be completely cured by us.” As I predicted, three months after milking the insurance company for $1 million, they admitted nothing could be done and told them to try to the Mayo Clinic. He died 5 days after leaving Tulsa. CCA is nothing but a spa for the terminally ill. No self-respecting physician would put his or her reputation on the line by practicing medicine here.
