It was a small trial — it involved only 26 people — but one in three of them benefited from the faecal microbial transfer (FMT). Today, at least 30 FMT trials are under way around the world. They hint at a new era of ‘ecological oncology’ and aim to uncover how the gut microbiome influences the progression of tumours, the effectiveness of treatments and the organisms that live in tumours themselves.
I am a Toronto-trained Urologist. I practiced in downtown Toronto, from 1977 to 1997, when I went to Saudi Arabia as chief of Urology at the Armed Forces (teaching) hospital in Tabuk.
Returning to Toronto in Y2000, I switched to family practice.
In 2007, began to prescribe Hormone Restoration Therapy and in 2012, I became a member of the American Academy of Antiaging Medicine [A4M].
I successfully wrote the A4M's written examination in December, 2013 and In May, 2016 I passed the oral examination, for accreditation as a BHRT consultant.
In 2014 I began BHRT practice in Collingwood, Ontario and in January, 2017, joined the Stone Tree Naturopathic Clinic.
Now I am 82 and have retired, but it seems wasteful to jettison my learning and experience: the medical establishment knows nothing of BHRT / Functonal medicine and I feel obliged to offer my knowledge in the interest of those who are willing to think outside the box.
