reader comments: psychic surgery

06 May 2000 
Stephen Turoff, the so-called psychic surgeon, is well known to me. I went to see him about 2 years ago.

You wait in his surgery while endless films of Sai Baba play. Sai Baba has been exposed as a sham and a charlatan in several books and also the Skeptic's Dictionary. There are books on the www exposing him too.

Stephen Turoff is a follower of Sai Baba.

In the Turoff surgery are many people - all foreign - and most with no command of English. This 'free' healer takes £200 in under ten minutes.

I saw him for spasmodic torticollis.

He had never heard of dystonia but nevertheless performed an 'operation', i.e. his 'guide' did.

He then pronounced me as being completely cured.

I felt nothing - especially no benefit.

Stephen Turoff was then investigated by the tax authorities.

That's all I know.
