The unedited, original version is below and note the sentence regarding personal responsibility for health has been removed, even though this was submitted in bold as shown to highlight its importance.
Dear Editor,
Recent articles in your paper made damning allegations about Serge Benhayon and his business. However, the overwhelming evidence of many professional, intelligent, highly qualified people is in favour of Benhayon and his work through Universal Medicine. It is astounding and insulting to us, our professions and our qualifications that our views may now be dismissed as the irrelevant ramblings of ‘brainwashed devotees’ based on nothing more than the hearsay of the anonymous few with an axe to grind.
As a Surgeon, I am aware that many doctors would at first glance dismiss Benhayon and his understandings. There is more to us than meets the eye and more to illness, disease and healing than we know. Modern medicine is not winning and as medical professionals we should have the humility to be open to new paradigms of understanding. Benhayon’s presentations make sense, are complementary to modern medicine and if applied lead to improved wellbeing. This man has an understanding of the human body and the human condition and his work should at least be listened to by anyone who is truly interested in healing.

As a Surgeon, I am aware that many doctors would at first glance dismiss Serge Benhayon and his understandings. This is a grave mistake. There is more to us than meets the eye and more to illness, disease and healing than we currently know. Modern medicine is not winning and as medical professionals we should have the humility to be open to new paradigms of understanding. Serge presents in detail how our ways of daily living can be ‘our best medicine or our worst poison’ and this engenders personal responsibility for health. His presentations make sense, are complementary to modern medicine and if applied lead to improved wellbeing. This man has an understanding of the human body and the human condition and his work should at least be listened to, if not embraced by, anyone who is truly interested in healing.
