Anti-Aging Doctor Cleared of Wrongdoing in Federal Indictment
Copyright Channel 4 News KRNV, August 10, 2007
Well-known Nevada medical oncologist and anti-aging physician, James Forsythe M.D., H.M.D. was cleared today of any wrongdoing in a thirty-month federal investigation and criminal indictment by the Federal Drug Administration and the U.S. Attorney’s office into the use of human growth hormone.
“It was unfortunate that this investigation was ever initiated. Everyone now understands that questioning the use of human growth hormone was terribly misguided, and I am grateful to be vindicated,” says Forsythe.
Dr. Forsythe’s attorney, Kevin Mirch, says not only has justice been served, but the FDA has requested that Forsythe author the very first protocols for the use of human growth hormone in the medical community across the nation.
“This is the first time in the history of the FDA that they have asked a doctor in private practice to draw up the guidelines for using a drug,” says Mirch. “This is a complete reversal of their original intentions when they went after my client two years ago.”
The 68-year-old Forsythe has been a pioneer in integrative therapies and wellness medicine for more than thirty years. His Century Wellness Clinic and Cancer Screening and Treatment Center of Nevada have drawn thousands of patients from all over the world and have turned Forsythe into an educator in his own profession.
“There is far too much misunderstanding in the medical establishment as to the efficacy of a number of alternative therapies such as hormone replacement therapy,” says Forsythe. “I’m sure this has been a learning experience for the FDA and the federal government, and I am looking forward to working with the FDA in educating medical professionals and regulatory officials as to the best uses for human growth hormone.”
Forsythe, a retired Army colonel and doctor in Vietnam, has been through many tough situations in his life but says that the last two years have been the most difficult. Not only did he know that what he was going through was totally unjustified, but the investigation was also placing a tremendous burden on his ability to treat more patients.
“I have never lost my passion to bring healing and hope to as many people as possible. I can increase my patient workload again now that the federal government has seen fit to drop all charges and even go as far as to encourage me to keep doing what I’ve been doing all along.”

I total agree with the quote above. Couldn’t be more true.
