Natural Optimum Wellness Sorai Susanne S. Stuart Deceptive advertising of non-existent credentials; a scam artist Arlington Texas

The State of Texas lists Clayton College of Natural Health to be an institution whose degrees are illegal to use. The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board writes:

The Texas Penal Code (Section 32.52) prohibits the use of fraudulent or substandard degrees "in a written or oral advertisement or other promotion of a business; or with the intent to: obtain employment; obtain a license or certificate to practice a trade, profession, or occupation; obtain a promotion, a compensation or other benefit, or an increase in compensation or other benefit, in employment or in the practice of a trade, profession, or occupation; obtain admission to an educational program in this state; or gain a position in government with authority over another person, regardless of whether the actor receives compensation for the position." Violation of this law is a Class B misdemeanor.

You may be able to submit a complaint to the Texas Medical Board and to the Texas Higher Education Board, as Susanne Stuart appears to be engaged in the unlicensed practice of medicine and using a degree to promote and practice this trade with an illegal degree.

I have rechecked the references on Sorai Stuart, naturopath in Arlington, Texas.  Although one website for national provider number 1497099618 returned "invalid number", another website returned this number as valid.

Although the American Naturopath Medical Association originally e-mailed me that Sorai Stuart was not a member, the same association reported today that she was a member.

Although the International Association for Colon Hydrotherapy also originally e-mailed me that Sorai Stuart was not a member, the same association reported today that she was a member.

This rebuttal retracts my earlier statements some of Sorai Stuart's references were invalid .

However, it is still true that her laxative capsules sold to us for my husband produced vomiting, diarrhea and dehydration which led to my husband's hospitalization on June 13, 2015.  My husband subsequently died on July 23, 2015.

 Her husband’s session was on June 2, I phoned on June 4^th to check in at that time and there wasn’t any mention of any problems.  I told her to stay in touch and phone me with any concerns or questions.  (All patients and clients may contact me as needed up until nine PM, a practice I have offered in my nearly thirty years of service.) I phoned again on June 25^th and was presented with his updated health condition, which was unrelated to his health concern scheduled consultation appointment on June 2^nd.  Even  during that phone conversation,  there was no mention of any of the above listed comments.
