I want to express my heartfelt apologies to anyone who may have been harmed or lost a loved one because they trusted Sheba Roy, believing she was a licensed doctor in Michigan.

I sincerely hope the number is zero. Unfortunately, most people, myself included, tend to associate the title “Doctor” with licensed physicians in their state, and that assumption often leads to misplaced trust.

When I first encountered Sheba Roy’s website and credentials, I was under the impression that she was a licensed physician, and so were almost all the people I shared the website with. Her use of an email address like dr. roy@aimnatural, references on platforms like Sharecare and Healthgrades, and terms such as “integrative oncologist” give a misleading impression. While some of these claims may be technically accurate, they feel deliberately crafted to obscure rather than clarify her lack of licensure. The reviews she receives only reinforce this, as most people refer to her as “Dr. Sheba Roy.”

I had a difficult decision to make: protect the general public or prioritize my wife’s health. My wife, recovering from cancer and dealing with her own issues involving Sheba Roy, expressed concern that exposing Roy could take a toll on her recovery. Out of love and respect for her well-being, I initially chose to wait. At that time, my wife and I hoped to address the issue quietly. 

We sought a simple solution: Sheba would place a clear, permanent disclosure on her main page that she was not a licensed doctor in Michigan and confirm she wasn’t using dangerous or discredited treatments like colloidal silver or harmful herbal remedies.

At first, Sheba complied and posted a thoughtful disclosure. Unfortunately, she removed it shortly after. I’m unsure whether she did this because the honesty hurt her business or because she decided no one could force her to act ethically. Regardless, that disclosure disappearing is why this site exists today. Had she maintained it, I likely wouldn’t have pursued this path.

Reflecting on her actions, I’ve come to see a troubling pattern: a focus on reputation and profit above the well-being of her patients. While she is undeniably intelligent and could help people in an ethical way, her choices make it clear that when faced with a decision between her own interests and a patient’s welfare, the patient might not come out on top. This realization has been devastating for me, as someone who believes in protecting vulnerable people from harm.

Alternative medicine is largely unregulated, and while there may be ethical practitioners, I no longer believe Sheba Roy is one of them. My mother allegedly lost her life due to the actions of an alternative doctor —not Sheba Roy—but this personal tragedy has left me deeply committed to protecting others from the same fate.

Thanks to licensed physicians, my wife has regained her strength, but the experience has been a sobering reminder of how critical transparency and ethics are in medical care. Some states have laws to prevent the misuse of the title “Doctor” in healthcare settings, understanding how misleading it can be. Michigan lacks such protections, leaving patients vulnerable to misrepresentation.

Moving forward, I will be sharing contact information for lawyers who may benefit from information that isn’t publicly available but can support their cases against Sheba Roy. My goal is simple: to protect vulnerable patients from harm. I am not seeking money; instead, I’m willing to invest tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in time and resources to achieve this mission.

I never wanted to go down this road, but standing by and doing nothing isn’t an option. To those who trusted Sheba Roy, I hope to shed light on the truth and prevent others from facing the same risks. Thank you for your understanding.

Someone like me shouldn’t have to push Sheba Roy to do the right thing.
