The doctor many believe can cure cancer

Over
a period of 30 years, highly qualified Perth-based surgeon Dr John Holt
has had some startling successes with a radio-wave therapy treatment
for cancer patients.
However, this radical treatment has
polarised the medical community in Australia. His supporters say he's
been vilified, while his detractors point out there is no scientific
basis for his claims.
Elvina Johnson had a lot of living to do
when she was told she had an aggressive form of bone cancer. At 18,
doctors discovered she had a "galaxy of tumours". She lost her leg and
underwent intensive chemo treatment to try and stop it spreading. Her
cancer was so severe that she relapsed soon after.
"It was through both of my lungs and by that stage it was pretty terminal," she told Ray Martin.
Elvina was desperate. Quite by chance she heard about a cancer specialist with a highly controversial procedure.
"By
taking the chance and finding this man, I am here six years later and
probably feeling better than ever, so I have had a rebirth," she said.
Dr
Holt's controversial treatment works, in layperson's terms, by giving
the patient an injection of a glucose-blocking agent. He then shines
"radio waves" into the body at a specific frequency. Dr Holt doesn't
guarantee it will cure every cancer, but it's not expensive and there's
no quackery about it.
Born in Bristol 80 years ago and a
member of the Royal Colleges, Dr Holt has 26 medical letters after his
name. For more than a decade he was in charge of Western Australia's
main cancer institute, until the late '70s, when he was blacklisted by
his medical colleagues and politicians.
"The doctors took up
such an action initially, they said the treatment was fake and
useless," said former WA Premier John Tonkin. But Tonkin added, "There
is no doubt whatsoever in my mind that this is the most advanced form
of cancer treatment in the world today."
The polarisation of the medical and scientific community in Perth over Dr Holt's treatment has been evident since the mid-'70s.
"It
is an unproven form of cancer treatment and it's not part of the
armoury of orthodox ways of treating cancer in Australia," said Clive
Deverill, the former boss of WA's Cancer Council. "Equally, there are
legions of patients who have been down that track who can't say
anything about their position because they're dead."
While the
medical community continues to argue the merits of Dr Holt's unorthodox
measures, the families of his successes feel they owe everything to
this gentle man.
After two brain tumours and a tumour on her
spine, Sophia Rosa was sent by pre-eminent brain surgeon Dr Charlie Teo
for the radical treatment. Two years later, the only sign Sophia had
cancer are the side-effects from the massive doses of chemotherapy
given in Sydney.
"Sometimes I think maybe Sophia's reason for
getting sick was so people would know about Doctor Holt," said Louisa
Raso, Sophia's mum.
