    Spouse comes from a family believing in this shit. They have a go to doctor for regular health issues (that one seems to be okay) and one for the bad issues (that’s the fraud).

    I’m sick for > 5 years now so I’m at the stage where I try everything if it doesn’t seem to kill me so about 3 years ago I went to see him.

    It was wild (quantum physics are easy to use and he heals his grandchildren in Africa regularly, pendulums and quartz stones were used, he shoved me around a few times, …) and in the end he explained that I’m suffering from worms that can’t be detected with school medicine tests. His treatment was as follows:

    • No alcohol and caffeine for two weeks so he can remotely undo my corona vaccine
    • Taking a few drops of his medicine daily so he can remotely attack the worms through this

    The whole session was expensive as fuck and I had some very long talks with my spouse about this afterwards. He stopped giving money to this guy now, after the fraud doctor started to call him and say he saw that my spouse is becoming sick (fraud dr has a drop of spouse’s blood and claims it changes when spouse becomes sick) and that he needs to start his remote therapy…

    If you can speak German or are willing to translate: behold fraud dr website

      I thought my dad was crazy because he thought rubbing his fingernails together would regrow his hair (he’s bald like Mr. Clean).

      This is the truly wacky shit right here though.

        Desperate people are so willing to believe… I guess that goes for some bald people too :/

        I know a few people who got their hair transplanted to their heads and are very happy with it. JIC your father gets tired of rubbing his nails someday.

        “Best” part of this is that our public health insurance pays out for this nonsense. Some providers allow you to opt out but I don’t think the majority of Germans bother.

        The Nazis and (racial) pseudo science. Name a more iconic duo.

        But even before that, health at least to a certain degree, has become a product. This is the breeding ground for these kind of people.

        It’s a problem here. Studied apothecaries are peddling that bullshit as medicine. Most health insurances even pay for that shit.

      Wow, this doctor is definitely not suffering from low self esteem. What a hack. Hey, hope you will get better soon!
