Do you have any legal recourse? Perhaps at least to recover any monies paid. File a complaint with whatever agency monitors his license etc.... |
I can't afford an attorney, altho the anguish he caused Krysten should be worth some $$. He yelled at her because her jaw wouldn't go numb - well, duh - he caused the injury to the nerve jabbing the needle and scraping it. He told her it couldn't be pulled, she had to have a root canal - $2000.00. He also told her she had at least 8 cavities that needed to be filled immediatly - another bunch of $$. He told her she had a horrible infection and put her on antibiotics - gave her a prescription for 4 days only and told her she had to be on them for 30 days

. Oh, there was no infection and there is only 1 other tiny cavity that isn't even to the point of the new dentist being able to fill it. The 1st one opened the molar and put in a medicated filling that the 2nd dentist said looked like she might have put in herself - it was such a botched up job. This was all done with a small xray - not the panoramic one. #1 wanted her to come back for another visit and charge for that one. I spoke to the receptionist and she was extremely rude to me when I tried to find out what was going on. She didn't even know what was done and was going to overcharge me until I called back again to tell her that the tooth didn't get fixed. The day after the visit, the recpt. called Krysten and wanted to schedule the panoramic xray visit. When K said she wasn't sure when, the recpt hung up on her. The lady that loaned the $ to K for the surgery is going to see what she can do about #1. She knows ALOT of people and can get things done. #2 is her dentist and he was so nice - he didn't charge anything for the 1st visit, gave her darvocet so she could get some rest and eat something and only charged her $15 for the panoramic xray that she got today. #1 wanted $100+ for it. I just hope she gets thru this without a seizure since she hasn't been on any meds for awhile.
