Leandra Smith's Experience with Hulda Clark
Leandra Smith, a sarcoma patient who unfortunately has since died, visited
Hulda Clark's clinic in Tijuana, Mexico and posted a message about what she
observed to the CANCER-L mailing list on Aug. 30, 1996, and she also wrote
about it some more in a message to me. What follows is an edited version of
her reports. It's important to note that her observations don't directly
address the question of whether the treatment works or not, but the
conditions she describes are surely a very bad sign.

"Quacky Mexican Clinics" by Leandra Smith
I went down to Dr. Hulda Clark's clinic in Tijuana yesterday..... She's the
lady who wrote The Cure for All Diseases and The Cure for All Cancers. She
believes that all diseases are caused by parasites in the body and if you
kill all the parasites and rid yourself of all chemicals in your environment
and prevent all metals from getting into your system then you will be cured.
I did notice, however, that she did say that if you do not rid yourself of
every single little pollutant than it will not work......hmmmm sounds like a
loophole in her theory if it doesn't work for you.......
The clinic itself was.....well.....sketchy. There was chaos everywhere and
people strolling in and out. There was a weird looking guy walking around
stalking all the flies with a swatter.....some very sick people were there
getting treatments and they were lying on plastic lawn chairs with cushions
covered in plastic garbage bags.....they were getting IV treatments and
their tubes were nailed up on the wall.....the whole place didn't look very
sanitary and the device they used to test me if I had any parasites was
obviously pure quackery. It was this audio thing that if you held one end of
a conductor and they pressed the other on your other hand and they placed
jars of the stuff they were testing on this metal plate......then when they
connected the electric current through your body it made
sounds......supposedly the woman doing the testing, also the receptionist,
could tell the difference between positive and negative (I heard no obvious
differentiating sounds).
I saw an elderly couple from Tenn. there and it was so sad. The husband was
so sick and he was just lying there trying to ignore the flies landing on
him in the hot, hot, hot clinic care room, just adjacent to the waiting room
with no door for privacy. His wife was running around trying to track down
anyone who could possibly find her some ice to cool her husband down and no
one would help her. I feel like if they could have had a resource to hear
about the conditions of the clinic before they traveled there they never
would have come......
I was supposed to go back today and pay $150 to hear what her treatment plan
would be, but I did suspect it meant staying at the clinic, to make sure
that I maintained a "non-toxic environment" (but also I guess pick up a
couple of Mexican bugs while I was at it). That didn't seem like something I
wanted to do, so I decided to keep the $150 and go out to dinner with
friends, which in my opinion would do better for my health than Dr. Hulda
Clark could provide.
Anyway, I think I'll stick to more mainstream holistic healers......
I don't know. I feel like I should go to more than one clinic in TJ before I
declare them all quackery......sorry if I offended anyone.....this just
happens to be my experience.
