Dr. Roger Leir scoffed when a UFO researcher showed him an X-ray of a woman's foot, claiming that the T-shaped spot was an object implanted by aliens.
Leir, a podiatrist, had seen similar spots in numerous X-rays. They invariably turned out to be screws or wires from an old surgery, splinters or other foreign objects.
The UFO researcher insisted. So, to prove him wrong, Leir offered to surgically remove the mysterious item.
"It was worth my time to show him this was a bunch of nonsense," Leir said.
But when Leir bent over his patient, scalpel in hand, he noticed that things were out of kilter. There was no scar or visible sign that something had entered the body. The patient was well anesthetized, yet she almost leaped from the table in pain when he touched the object. But the surrounding tissue showed no inflammation or reaction, as if nothing unusual was going on.
And when Leir retrieved the object, it became even more of a mystery: It appeared to be an unfamiliar metal-like substance, and it was encased in a tough biological membrane that resisted even the sharpest scalpel.
"I'd never seen anything like that come out of a human," he said.
That was in 1995. He subsequently has done surgery to remove 10 more objects which, despite analysis by some of the most sophisticated scientists in the country, continue to defy earthly explanation. At least one analyst compared the composition of the object to that of a meteorite; others have pointed out metallurgical anomalies.
Leir will talk about those objects and his other research related to UFOs when he speaks at McMinnville's annual UFO Festival.
He will be part of a speakers' bureau at 7 p.m. Friday in the Mack Theater. Admission is $7 for the event, which also will include a screening of the Trent case documentary.
Leir will sign books at 9:30 that night in McMenamins Hotel Oregon. Saturday morning, he and Peter Davenport, director of the National UFO Reporting Center, will give a workshop at 10:30 in the hotel. Admission is $7 per person.
He will serve as grand marshal of the UFO parade downtown at 1 p.m. Saturday, as well.
Alien implants
Based on this analysis and on patients' memories of being abducted and spirited up to spaceships, Leir guesses that the tiny objects were implanted by aliens.
Abductees he has met in 42 countries have told him eerily similar stories of awakening surrounded by aliens in what appears to be a surgical suite. He receives hundreds of e-mails each month from people who believe they have such implants — some because they recall an abduction, some because they feel a lump in a spot that has never been subject to surgery.
In some cases, people complain of physical pain in the area where the object is embedded, Leir said. Others don't feel it at all.
Two of Leir's patients were interviewed by a psychologist both before and after implant removal surgery. Using almost the same words, both reported a newfound sense of freedom once the object was removed.
So what are these implants?
Clearly, they were created using nannotechnology, Leir said. They are extremely tiny recording transmission devices.
Some ufologists theorize the objects were implanted to control our behavior. But Leir said his best guess is that they are monitoring devices which keep track of genetic changes in human beings.
One thing is sure, he said: They are absolutely not designed to follow our movements.
"I don't think a civilization millions of years older than ours would need a tracking device to know where we are," he said. "They would have other ways."
Leir, who has been a doctor for more than three decades, was interested in ufology long before he started doing implant removal surgery.
In fact, he had covered UFO speakers for the magazine "Vortex." He said he gave positive reviews to those whose claims were based on research and the scientific method and panned those whose assertions "sounded like nonsense."
Research in Brazil
In recent years, Lear has served as a technical consultant to the TV series "The X-Files" and has appeared on numerous TV specials. While traveling the world speaking about implants, he has been intrigued by UFO reports in every country.
During a visit to Brazil, he heard about a Roswell-like incident that took place in 1996. About 80 witnesses so far have come forward with stories about a UFO crash and cover-up near a small agricultural town, he said.
Leir talked with some of the witnesses, including an orthopedic surgeon who said he was recruited to repair an alien's fractured limb. "We could talk in medical language with no barriers," he said, although he depended on a Portuguese translator as well.
As a result of his research, he recently authored a new book, "UFO Crash in Brazil." It joins his first book, "The Aliens and the Scalpel: Scientific Proof of Extraterrestrial Implants in Humans."
Leir said he doesn't claim to be an expert on UFOs, but he is interested in learning more about them. He has only to look at the sky on a clear night to know something is out there.
"Look at the stars. You can't possibly believe we are the only intelligent thing in the vastness of the universe," he said.
And it's easy to conclude that aliens hover over us, abduct people and implant ... something.
"Maybe they are coming to study us," Leir said. "Or maybe they're just visiting Earth to get a look at us, just like we go to the zoo."
