A TALK WITH DR. PAUL MARIK (PART 3): Integrative Oncology as an Enlightened Path to Cancer Care

“It's not the destination, it's the journey” is the infamous quote attributed to the great American poet Ralph Waldo Emerson. It has been my pleasure to present Dr. Paul Marik’s amazing journey to the destination of Integrative Oncology. The destination is itself a story. Yet, it is his perseverance, curiosity of mind, and dedication to the Hippocratic oath that sets the journey of Dr. Paul Marik apart from most others. Is the destination complete from vitamin C and sepsis through integrative medicine during the COVID-19 pandemic to the founding of the FLCCC, now to repurposed medications stepping into integrative oncology? Time will tell, but I suspect repurposed integrative oncology medications are simply the next step in his journey. That has been my experience. There is no going back once you open the door of integrative cancer care.
