Detroit-area cancer doctor gets 45 years in prison for fraud

DETROIT – Calling the scheme "horrific," a judge sentenced a Detroit-area cancer doctor to 45 years in prison Friday for collecting millions from insurance companies while poisoning more than 500 patients through needless treatments that wrecked their health.

Say what you want but I never give money to ANY cancer organization without checking them out. Same goes for doctors. Just because they have MD behind their name doesn't mean they were top of the class.
