Patient Reviews
Jan 07, 2024
He never stood up to the vaccine industry which would have been optimal because both aluminum hydroxide and formeldehyde are both associated with cancers and aluminum hydroxide is associated with breathing cessation and death but this is what he did do. Once Danny was in excruciating pain because he was sent home with mucositis due to chemo for A L.L.. People with Down's are at higher risks for mucositis with some chemotherapies so the oncologist should have diagnosed him but didn't. Dr. Howes made sure his pain issues were addressed and when he was receiving chemo so we wouldn't have to go back and forth from New Orleans he would administer Danny's chemo. He also advocated for Danny, routinely, which was appreciated. He failed to advocate for me when I was disrespected by the lab technician but he always advocated for Danny which has to count for something.
