We will add to this section. Meanwhile, if you are as creeped out by the Cancer Treatments Centers of America ads as a lot of people, you have come to the right place.
A good place to start is here – great site dealing with quack ads: http://www.quackwatch.org/
If you want to catch up on the CTCA discussion, check here: http://www.cancercompass.com/message-board/message/all,38947,0.htm

A little hint – if you really want to asses how effective CTCA is curing cancer, compare the percentage of their patients that go into remission for specific cancers compared to other medical facilities. If you haven’t figured it out already, Peggy Kessler on TV is NOT proof of their efficacy. You have to look at the entire patient population and overall remission rates. CTCA knows that, but are not ashamed to use this technique to get those poor people who are terribly sick, desparate and willing to try anything. It’s sad.
