I am writing this on behalf of my uncle to find the legitimacy of Dr David A. Alanis M.D. He is from the Institute of Cellular Medicine:
www.cellmedicine.com


Dr Alanis claims that he will treat MS with a Series of intravenous and 5 intrathecal injections consists of ambbellical chord over a two week time period.

Have any of you heard of this? Is this a scam?

Hi Everyoung...
The only doc with that name on the web is a sports medicine practitioner in Hawaii. Don't think he'd be qualified to administer stem cell treatments.

David A. Alanis, MD
Comp. Spine & Sports Med of HI
PO Box 579
Kamuela, HI 96743
(808) 885-1965

Trust your gut...you obviously had doubts, and are looking out for your uncle (who I assume has MS) Good for you.

If your uncle is truly interested in stem cells, he needs to learn about how they can help MS.
Here's a terrific publication posted on another thread:

http://www.msif.org/docs/MSinFocusIssue11EN.pdf

I would also have him research Revimmune at Johns Hopkins University. This is a proven treatment, which is working and helping people.
Read about it here:

best to you and your uncle,
AC
