“Happy Holidays!
Lynn K. finished treatment today (Melanoma).
He had a very impressive response. His bukly disease 'melted away' and he was very happy.
He had the nicest comments regarding the care he received with you and Cyrus et al. and I wanted to pass along how appreciative he and his wife are.
Actually all the patients say that!

Talk soon. Phil”

Dear Cyrus Rafie and all at the Center for Thermal Oncology,
Just a note to say THANK YOU a million times and more.
Since just before Christmas, when the catheter was finally removed and I “walked free,"  all has gone really well. 
I was told by the first urologist I visited, that I would never be without a catheter of some sort.  I feel absolutely over the moon that I might even be riding again soon.
The thermal treatments (hyperthermia) combined with the Chemotherapy, radiation and brachytherapy eradicated the tumor. There is little sign of it. 
You gave me the best Xmas present I have ever had!  As each day goes by I am so much stronger and have more energy.
Thank you for your knowledge & faith that this combined treatment would succeed. Thank you too, for the wonderful, kind and loving care I received.
With best wishes for the New Year.
With Love From
Helen and family.

“Keep doing what you are doing! The atmosphere here is really excellent and patients feel welcome and cared for. Thank you! The Center was very flexible coordinating our appointments with (other offices). We are grateful as that was one less thing to worry about.”

“ My initial thoughts (about hyperthermia) were- I don’t think so, I doubt it, why isn’t this widespread?  As I researched it and understood it, I about fell over to find out I’m getting a therapy to make my radiation work.  And this could save my life…. and it did.  I don’t have cancer anymore.….Did they do a good job? YES…. It’s gone! "

“I am 81 years young. In the month of August, I went from 146 lbs. to 119 lbs. I was always tired, not normal for me. After my liver cancer diagnosis I was referred (for hyperthermia). I highly recommend Thermal Therapy to anyone requiring treatment for cancer. The machine is a miracle that has changed my life for the better. My weight has increased from that 119 lbs. to 131 lbs. and holding for 2 months. My appetite and energy levels have increased. My mood and sense of well-being greatly improved.”

This will save your life.  It is maybe one of the most effective therapies and procedures you could possibly have for cancer, anywhere. It wasn’t hot.  It was enjoyable, it was effective.  There were NO drawbacks…..It feels good to know you are going to live. This is the top place in the world to go.  Top place. To come here, get this care, be back in action….is there a reason you would go anywhere else?  Everybody should come here.  You want to save your life?  Come here.”

“I wanted to give you an update as I now have a substantial amount of information since my visit today. The PET/CT Scans came back with 95+%  of the cancer gone. There has been no spread anywhere in my body. My medical oncologist was quite happy and said the cancer was almost undetectable. I have the Scan reports which I will show you tomorrow. My ENT doctor did a scope through my mouth and nose and took pictures. She said that the tumor is now completely gone, there is no trace of it any more. Could not be better news! There is no doubt in my mind that the combination of Chemotherapy + Thermal Therapy has had simply a stunning impact on my health and potential recovery. Three months ago my outlook was bleak, now I am almost speechless with this latest great news and reports. Thank you so very much, you have been simply awesome in the way you have cared for me and looked out for me.”

“I wanted to drop you a note to first of all to thank you for the way you are taking care of me and secondly to provide you some feedback on the Thermal Therapy. I have to tell you that when I am feeling well between Chemo treatments and have 5 days of consecutive treatments I feel quite a bit better. The tumor is obviously shrinking, my breathing has improved and the wound on my neck, which was quite bad when we first met, is now almost gone. Immediately after Chemo when I can’t make my Thermal Therapy appointment some of the time I don’t feel nearly as good and I think the Thermal Therapy has something to do with my improvement. Thanks so much, I really appreciate your caring attitude and taking the time to help through the Thermal Therapy.”
