Lede

Regarding the statement, "Many of the treatments offered there have been found to be ineffective, and criticized as quack remedies; the clinic itself has been characterized by Quackwatch as "dubious"," no reference is given. An opposing, strongly stated view is available in an interview granted by Donald Factore, monied heir and 2nd owner/operator of Max Factor cosmetics, Donald Factor, aka 'Max Factor, Jr.,' reviewing his experience with lung cancer and subsequent successful treatment at Oasis. --JnetNorthwest (talk) 19:52, 8 March 2016 (UTC)JnetNorthwest, 11:52 AM, March 8, 2016[reply]

The lede summarizes the body and does not require citations so long as the equivalent content is cited in the body (it is). The Donald Factore source is not reliable and so of not use to us. Alexbrn (talk) 19:58, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This feels very like a smear.

Is there any data on the number of patients that recover compared to hospitals treating with conventional methods? Surely that is what counts. 79.154.113.253 (talk) 16:40, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Treatment section

Could this do with some additions? It's referring to studies in the late 1990s and also something from 2005 but nothing more recent? LaPlaya (talk) 15:15, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
