Dr. Lawrence Burton, one of the most colorful and controversial figures
in the alternative field, died on March 8 [1993], at the age of 66, in Freeport,
Bahamas. He suffered a heart attack. His Immuno-Augmentative Therapy (IAT)
cancer clinic, which has treated over 4,500 people, will remain open under
Dr. R.J. Clement. Burton developed IAT at St. Vincent's Hospital, New York
in the 50s. In 1967, he made mouse tumors disappear before an ACS Seminar.
Widely opposed, he left for the Bahamas in 1977.
