What happens when desperation meets deception in the shadowy world of underground medicine? Meet Rick Van Thiel, a convicted felon with no medical training who operated an "alternative clinic" from a filthy trailer in Las Vegas, performing procedures he learned from YouTube videos—often while completely naked.

This episode serves as a powerful reminder about the vital importance of medical licensing, regulation, and accessible healthcare. If you've ever been tempted by miracle cures or alternative treatments that seem too good to be true, this cautionary tale might make you think twice.
