    A Good Doctor for Crohn's in Portland, OR?

    New to Crohn's, which of these books do you recommend?

    Hi, I'm new to this forum. My partner has Crohn's. Has anyone read the book "No More Crohn's Disease", by Cathy Rubert? She claims her system cures Crohn's. Sounds almost too good to be true.
