Clinic Tricks Patients into Thinking They Had Alzheimer’s

Clinic lies about alzheimersMore than fifty former patients from a now-closed Ohio clinic are suing the clinic’s director and owner, claiming that they tricked them into thinking they had Alzheimer’s disease when they actually did not. Some of the patients claim that they underwent treatment for almost a year before realizing that they were not suffering from the disease. As a result, the patients’ families were devastated, and several contemplated taking their own lives. Ultimately, it was found that the clinic director did not have a license to practice medicine.
