Is Dr. Bazan a quack or what?

Post by Tricia »

He's saying that he's ready to do HM. I have a hard time believing that. I think he's taking a little bit of science (that's not ready for prime time) and making some money off of it.

I haven't seen any pictures of any of his patients that look good. I've heard that Bazan has had some treatments himself, but i haven't seen any recent pictures of him.

I get a creepy vibe about him. Elaine Fuchs is working on HM and she's not openning shop in Mexico and selling it.

It's not clear to me at this point. For a long time I thought Gho may have been a fake, but it turns out he actually is doing some promising research.

However, with regards to Bazan, I think even if he is onto something, it's my opinion at this point that the circumstances surrounding him and his practice are somewhat questionable. Here's to hoping I'm wrong.

:wink:

I'm not too sure about Bazan or Gho. But, I think some people (like Fuchs) are very close to trying this out on people.

Let's hope that all the hype on HM does lead to a real cure sooner than later. I am still of the opinion that it will be five or more years before it becomes really viable in the following ways:

1) high quality with a good level of effeciency
2) safe
3) affordable

I agree with you on the timeline. 5 yrs would be super fast. I'd be happy with that. :D
