E5Faith Healers: Saints or Scammers?May 15, 2026 · 30m · Sahar Zand reports from the Philippines on the controversial world of spiritual healers. Across the country, with high medical costs and difficulties accessing healthcare, patients put their trust in alternative treatments to cure anything from chronic pain to cancer.

Their clinics attract patients from across this country of 112 million people, and even overseas. Sahar meets families placing their hopes in these treatments, including those who've turned away from conventional medicine.
