This is exactly the sort of thing that agencies tasked with policing the medical marketplace should take issue with. Hiding behind separation of church and state is extremely sinister. If someone wants to make a health claim, they need to back it up. Its not just semantics or a matter of belief, people in need of medical attention that do not receive the proper treatment are at risk of serious illness or death. Those individuals or groups who put people in this position should be litigated. What next, do we allow human sacrifice because it's an article of faith and the participants are willing? And can I sue a preacher for malpractice, because that's the position a physician finds himself in when he/she misrepresents treatment options or botches said treatment.
Personally, I think our reluctance to seriously hammer these people is spineless and reprehensible. So you want gather together every sunday and regurgitate bronze age myths, fine. The minute you get into medicine then you've crossed the line and lose that protection. Again, just my opinion.
