I think I have to react to the above mentioned posting because I feel
that people with interest in the UFO field can be mislead by the
information presented.
I am a physician, specialist in anesthesiology, head of a Department in
a teaching hospital in Israel. I have also a long time interest in UFO
phenomena.
I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Derrel Sims personally during a recent
visit he made in Israel.At that occasion he presented in front of a
small audience some of the results of his research.
Let me point out some details:
Dr. R. Lear, Mr. Sims' collaborator is not a physician (MD), and much
less a "surgeon", but a podiatrist (licenced to make small surgical
interventions on the foot only.) Mr Simms could be a "qualified
Hypnotherapist" - I do not know.
What I know for sure is that Mr Sims stories have medical inaccuracies
regarding details of the operations performed for the removals of what
he and his organisation (FIRST) claims to be "implants" (with all the
implications of this term -in the way it is used -namely implying to
describe an object manufactured by extraterrestrial beings with the
purpose of monitoring/controling humans, etc.)
Absolutely no evidence of such was presented by Mr. Sims at the
presentation which I personally witnessed. I could add that he became
visibly disturbed when I asked him specific questions regarding the
alleged "implants" and he gave inadequate answers regarding such
specific topics as the dose of local anesthetic used for the extraction
of the so called "implants".
I specifically asked him to provide me with color slides of the actual
pathological specimens that he extracted from the subjects studied. He
declined under various motives.
No other evidence or specimen was available to my specific request. I
asked him for such because I have the possibility to made them examined
by some of my friends either in the pathology Dpt of my Medical Center,
The Forensic Medical Institute at Abu Kabir or at The Weizmann Institute
in Rehovot - Israel.
No specimen, pathological slide or other material was available from Mr.
Sims for examination by an independent specialist or laboratory - as I
have asked.
I am afraid that all claims made by Mr Sims or his associates have not
been confirmed or underwent a pair review process, therefore I
personally have serious doubts as to the veracity of those claims.
I would like to emphasize that I am a physician with about 20 years of
experience in the operating room, in the field of anesthesiology and
emergency medicine. I know a thing or two about what we call "Foreign
Bodies" (FB) found quite often, especially in the feet of some
unsuspecting patients by an incidental X Ray made for another purpose.
They get there by a variety of methods : waking or playing bare foot on
the beach, grass etc, and not noticing when the FB is getting in.
(during a fall, running, getting hurt by some other bigger object from
which a small splinter can get into one's foot and remain there for
many, many years under the skin - until sometimes they are discovered by
chance while some other physician or medical practitioner - like a
podiatrist - is examining the patient for another, unrelated complain -
and sometimes X Ray their feet!) If it is a substance that degrade
slowly, then after years only a small notch of"reaction" tissue remains
in the place of the former FB. It is composed of human tissue components
- etc.. No mystery, no "implants".
This is my two cents of caution about the above mentioned subject.
I firmly belive that "UFO phenomena" exist.
I also firmly belive that meticulous research by competent persons is
the way to the truth.
Sincerely yours:
Virgil Priscu MD
