Oral Surgeons - Fort Lauderdale, FL

"I had one the worst experiences with this Oral Surgeon that I’ve ever had in my entire life. He lacks compassion and empathy. This review doesn’t relate to melrose park. I had this experience at the office in Hyde park.He entered and introduced himself and said I can pull this tooth or you can come back another day. The crazy thing is The appointment was scheduled for an extraction so what was the point of the question. I then told him that’s why I scheduled the appointment for an extraction he then says so is that a yes? That was rude and unnecessary. The 1st thing he did was grab my chin and throw my head back and told me to open my mouth that hurt my face and my feelings now I know how horses feel. During the procedure he didn’t treat me like a person he threw his tools on my chest while he was working I haven’t experienced that before. Also I was in extreme pain to the point I pushed his hand away which I apologized for I’m 43 years old and have had many extractions and two root canal’s and have never felt that much pain from any dentist. I apologized it was like a reflex when I did it I felt so bad. He gave more medication it was still hurting so I was balling my fists up and shaking from the extreme pain. This upset him so he screamed at me and told me to stop being so tense telling me it’s not pain it’s just the vibrations from the drill and me moving was making it worse. There were tears coming out my eyes from the pain. The pain I was feeling caused me to tense up. Ladies and Gentleman I can take vibrations I was feeling extreme pain. So he said I’m going to stop and we will sedate you for this tooth extraction that was a good call. Now his assistant went to re-explain why we need to reschedule the visit was due to me not being able to calm down, so I told her I was very calm I was feeling extreme pain while I was telling her that this surgeon started yelling at me again saying yea we gotta reschedule because you need to be sedated so you can be calm. I asked him what should I do for pain in the mean time since you drilled some of this tooth away. He yelled from the hallway take some Tylenol. He didn’t ask me how I was feeling, I don’t know if he was having a bad day or what? If a tooth is so bad that you can’t even get it numb enough it would stand to reason he should’ve at least offered to prescribe me something for the pain. This surgeon is not much for small talk either. Normally dentist and oral surgeons do multiple checks to see if your experiencing pain and they don’t yell at you for being in pain. I’ve gotten better dental care on Medicaid. "
