ATLANTA - The FOX 5 I-Team has learned the FDA has opened an investigation of a woman who claimed to be a doctor while selling so-called health drinks to the public.
Late last year, the FOX 5 I-Team investigated Azalea Blalock, who calls herself Dr. Azalea. A medical board complaint was filed claiming Ms. Blalock claimed to be a doctor. There is no record of her being a medical doctor in Georgia.
After our report aired, Soliel Hamlette reached out to say she came oh so close to letting a woman she knew as Dr. Azalea treat her for Stage 3 lymphoma.
Soleil was producing one of her R&B music shows around the time she met Azalea. She became suspicious when Azalea told her Soleil was no longer human because she had gotten a COVID-19 vaccine shot before beginning her cancer treatment.
"She was going on to tell me I was no longer human. The government wouldn't consider me a human because I was now vaccinated, and I had toxins in my body, on top of my cancer toxins," Soleil said.
Soleil said the final red flag was when she saw a flyer describing Azalea's 5-Day Total Detox Special. The flyer said the cost was "normally $10,000" But was, "Special only Today" for just $3500.
"I didn't even go any further, because I was like, this is weird. I'm not paying that," Soliel said.
She decided to stick to traditional immunotherapy and forgot all about it until she saw Azalea Blalock in a FOX 5 I-Team Investigation of Dr. Azalea.
On social media posts, she calls herself Dr. GreenSoul Azalea on her webpage and social media. But there is no record of her being any kind of doctor with the Georgia Medical Board.
"I thought she was a doctor, because that's the way she introduced herself," Valerie Hamlin told us.
The I-Team reported how Valerie Hamlin filed a police report stating a woman she knew as Azalea Blalock conned her and her husband out of more than $12,000. They went on to spend more than $20,000 on treatments. Mike had stage 4 pancreatic cancer.
Valerie told the police Azalea claimed she was a doctor and she tried a variety of holistic treatments on Mike before Valerie realized Azalea wasn't a medical doctor. The Hamlin’s returned home to Michigan. Mike died a short time later.
Reporter: "Why do you tell people you are a doctor?"
Blalock: "Because I am."
Blalock later texted FOX 5 to say she never claimed to be "a MEDICAL DR. I am holistic healer based on Ecclisatical law."
The I-Team also tested Azalea's gkChlrophyll. A drink she sells that she claims is packed with chlorophyll and can help a shopping list of serious ailments including cancer. The lab wrote back to say: "The data shows there is essentially no chlorophyll….in the product."
FOX 5 told Azalea Blalock what the lab found. She texted to say: "there is nothing but the herb plant itself used in the product fresh the chlorophyll is the plant."
Reporter: "What did you think when you looked up and saw her on FOX 5?"
Soliel: "I literally was like, ‘Oh, my God,’ I was screaming."
Soleil immediately put the story on her Facebook page writing "OMG this woman tried to treat me."
"You’re not a real doctor, so it's sickening. Where is that money, what are you doing?" Soleil asked.
And, she wasn't the only one who noticed. The I-Team has learned the Food and Drug Administration has opened an investigation into Azalea Blalock's businesses. The FDA has the power to remove illegal products from the market and punish offenders.

Plenty of crooks out there like this, fooling people left and right
There are times you get the cure through dreams and it's very easy. that doesn't makes you a crook.
This woman needs to go to jail
She should go to prison point blank
Facts 💯%
“OMG THIS WOMAN TRIED TO TREAT ME….” No, honey she tried to TRICK you.
Hell everyone in Atlanta is a doctor.
That is so horrible what she did to so many people.
LOCK HER UP!! Shame that she's preying on people who are desperate!!
Just like Biden.
That woman needs to be locked up. Hope they do lock her up for a very long time.
Why isn’t the fake doctor in prison?
🤣 she said "you no longer human because you took the vaccine" 🤣 this woman is evil
actually dimwit that shot is toxic and do not supposed to be use on autoimmune ppl or cancer ppl
If you only knew
It’s true though even a broken clock is right twice a day
Lawd have mercy people are sooo foolish
Yeah, A Witch Doctor!😨
PT Barnum said, "There's a sucker born every minute"
Chlorophyll is not a plant🤦 1st grade science
Look at the smile and she knows she’s full of it smh unless she gets jail time nothing will happen
Another con artist
Wow. Never heard this story. Really sad
Why jeopardize someone health when you know you’re lying. She has no conscious & needs to pay back all the money she stolen. Lock her up.
But its a fresh plant. If it's liquified in a jar then it isn't fresh.
She was selling snake oil to people and the people suffered for it.
So sad that this female is taking advantage of desperate people. Good old Georgia !
lol you not human you know this yall upset she talked about that jabby
She'll treat me! If your not in a hospital, I could never! Cancer is no joke! I've had it and I would never trust my life to someone like her. These narcissist will kill you! They become whom ever you need them to be at any given time! They refuse to quit putting themselves in the pathway of decent people 😒
Lock her up!!!
She went to medical school at Hillman and she learned Under Dr Dre
Mr. Russell dresses in some fine threads, baby! I really like his suitcoats.
All I can say is 😂😂😂 Can't say much because these type folks are overbearing, bulldozing,evil. Point blank nothing more than criminals. 😪😪SMH
‘I have a fine bridge in Brooklyn, for sale, for a really good price’. Just saying.
I would rather trust this female of Fauci lol
She’s a hustler baby
so are the MDs
This non human thing is very serious and may cost millions of people. Azalea is a crook. But people need to look into the non human thing
The usual suspect. Bw lying and stealing. Lovely. Stereotype upheld yet again
She right about vaccine, that’s why your trying to discredit her.
