Psychiatrist Paul Fedoroff and the ROMHC have come under criticism for claiming they could cure pedophilia. Sexual behavior scientists and pedophilia researchers reported that there was no evidence to support Fedoroff’s claims and expressed concern that the ROMHC was releasing pedophiles out into the community without therapy or supervision.
