Well, according to Dr Kaufman in their latest Unraveled podcast on YouTube they can get many of us to 80%+
Honestly, listening to this naively as a desperate ME/CFS sufferer, I‘m more than willing to go broke for the rest of my existence if they can get me back to living some sort of a life.

I am skeptical of this statistic that he’s getting people back to 80%+, and unfortunately, we can only take his word for it, because he and other doctors making these type of claims don’t have rigorous trials to indicate what’s happening one way or another to their patients.

I think for docs like Ruhoy to be charging $4,250 an hour, there should be some compelling evidence that what she offers is going to help the patient.

It is a scam dressed up as evidence based medical treatment. Most ‘intergrative doctors’ push the regulatory boundaries the same way.

If they actually had some magic that worked, they’d surely run a successful stufy with the money they have.

Yeah, from what I gather, their magic pill is the „septad“. It’s a diagnostic process that’s explained in more detail in this post over at HealthRising.
They also did an entire episode about it on their Patreon, which they made freely available a few months back.
They are currently in the process of moving all their Patreon stuff to their YouTube channel.
