Doctors knows the cure of cancer. Cancer is a 95.5 billion dollar industry. I don?t really believe they want to stop the cashflow so doctors who cure cancer naturally are being killed or arrested. Why?Where is the humanity? Thank you.

We have natural therapies since thousands of years. Cancer is also there since that many years. Why has the cancer survival increased only in last few decades since chemotherapy and radiation have come up to support surgery. Targeted therapy like imatinib has been a boon for AML Leukaemia patients. Immunotherapy has found benefits after trying for decades. I agree that the science is far from perfect but it is not a gimmick. If scientists earn millions then billions have been invested for the research. Just to improve the cure rates, which improve slowly, not by leaps and bounds. In India we see many patients diagnosed with cancer who go for alternative medicine (various reasons like distrust on doctors, what rumours like cancer is a sham, chemotherapy kills, feel doctors are looting them.) Believe me I have spent 20 years learning and researching medicine and cancer before becoming a consultant and treating patients. But still Patients prefer a local Ayurvedic doctor. People are ok with a cricketer, actor, builder, politician or an engineer making money, but not a doctor. None of the above serve you for free at personal level. Many doctors do see patients for free, without making a show of the same. Would a poor person who is hungry get free lunch at Tendulka restaurant? But I treat atleast 3-5 patients for free, infact help them through various NGO� aswell because treatment material cost is not free. Sad is the situation where patients trust more than Specialists, which gives rise to cut practice in society. I agree all specialist don'�t do clean practice, but there are those like me who do it. The whole profession cannot be grouped into the same category because of a few rotten apples. Especially when your life depends on those lifesavers. Please trust me, no doctor wants to see his Patient ill. I entered this field because I lost my mother to esophageal cancer. Believe me we are no where near to curing this disease, but we have made significant progress in the last 50 years.
