Rubio Cancer Center

I'm very pleased with my results. I am almost completely cured of Lupus. Everyone at the clinic is very caring. I liked that it was a low key environment where it felt more like a hotel and less like a hospital. It is a safe and secure facility.

I am only starting my third week of treatment here, out of an estimated projection of 6-8 weeks, so results are preliminary. I can definitely FEEL a difference in my body and mental state, though. I like that they use immunotherapy here because it integrates science AND natural healing. Here, they use stem cells and cancer vaccines, along with natural supplements and a number of different detoxification methods. Also, because they are a small clinic (9 patients at a time), they are able to truly give each of us significant individual attention.

Can you share any important tips for anyone considering this clinic?

The only drawback I have had here is the food. As a vegetarian with advanced cancer, I wish the meal options catered a little more to my needs, but they don't. Breakfast is fine, but lunch and dinner are often just salad, plates of heated vegetables, sometimes rice, and sometimes soup. There just aren't vegetarian entrees offered, so the food becomes redundant and unfulfilling after being here a week. Also, I had done research on cancer-fighting foods prior to coming here, so I was expecting to be eating some of those foods regularly with my meals (e.g. beets, red cabbage, flax seeds, dark leafy vegetables, legumes, etc.), but I'm not. I'm currently discussing this with multiple staff here in an effort to get them to make some changes. Other clinics focus a lot more on nutrition than this place does, but those same clinics don't necessarily have the level of experience with stem cells and cancer vaccines that they have here.
