Heading to the dentist. Feel sick

He hurt me in Aug. Blown off about pain. Tried to see a specialist yesterday and they contacted the fucking dentist, so I get a call! Just want this over with. Scared they won't finish the work. Been dealing with this 18 mos. I'm injured. I cannot find a lawyer.

ruined my right eye in 2018, doing cataract surgery. I found out all of the local eye doctors all hang togehter. I don't want anything to do with any of the local eye doctors ever again. I drove 2 1/2 hours to Cleveland Clinic for months for treatment, which controlled but didn't reverse the damage. The eye doctor who treated me in Cleveland listened to my story, had the records and didn't take sides. I had to stop going because of Covid and remain partially blind in my right eye and fearful of ever getting cataract surgery on my left eye.

My suggestion is to go as far as you need to and find a dentist, lawyer and other professionals who will treat you and maybe take a case against the dentist who harmed you.

Hope something changes for you.

Omg your EYESIGHT! Once this is over and all the crowns are laid- He found out i made an appointment with a tmj specialist bc they contacted his office! I'm going to ask about a referral to the hospital. They take Medicare. The specialist I just wanted imaging and a consult with canceled yesterday. That gave me a panic attack. I'm halfway done. The right side crowns are too high or something. Hard finding a lawyer tho. The dental one told me almost impossible to prove these cases. That was depressing.
