Core beliefs
A well-informed patient has a right to choose an appropriate medical therapy. Patients have a right to use their own cells in medical treatment. Peer oversight is critical for the advancement of safe medical procedures.
These beliefs connect directly to informed consent, independent review, evidence standards, and patient-protection workflows.
