Doctors Don't Like To Take a Stand Against Each Other!
What will you do if the unexpected happens? You end up with a complication
that cannot be "fixed" and realized that you were not properly informed of
the risks, or you think you have suffered malpractice.....



It's a tactic well-known, repeated countless times, that your surgeon will
probably tell you "Just give it another six months" or "The cornea heals
very slowly and you just need to be patient". Sometimes, that's enough to
keep you pacified until after the statute of limitations (during which you
can file a lawsuit) runs out. Once you realize that you are not getting
better, it's too late to sue.

Even if you know there's been malpractice, where are you going to find a
doctor who will take a stand against his colleagues and to some degree, the
refractive surgery industry? Remember, they don't like to admit that this
surgery has disabled many, many patients. They prefer to remain in a state
of denial and pretend that LASIK never harms anyone because it's an elective
and UNNECESSARY surgery. The worse LASIK and other procedures begin to
look, the less money they make. Plain and simple, this is strictly about
MONEY. Refractive surgery is completely unregulated and it's become a
free-for-all for surgeons who can take a one-day class and call themselves a
LASIK surgeon. Then as they gain experience, they double it by calling each
patient "two cases" because they have two eyes!

What you can expect to hear:

"I don't see any malpractice here."

"Your doctor did nothing wrong."

"That's not exactly what I said," (when your attorney calls the doctor to
verify what he told you).

"There is new technology coming that can fix this, so there are no damages
here."

"He is an excellent surgeon and I know he fully informs his patients."

Chances are that you will not find an expert witness near your home.
Finding one is the most difficult part of litigation, but once you have an
reputable expert who says that malpractice occurred, you've got a case!

If it were not so pathetic, this would be getting downright funny. In
one post you list successful malpractice claims, all requiring expert
testimony, and then in this post you go on about how patients can't
get expert testimony for malpractice claims.

Well, getting an expert witness is a problem, but for damaged patients who
could find a surgeon with a conscience
who was willing to testify, some have prevailed.

Well, at least you acknowledge that some of what you post is bovine
fertilizer.

Nothing that I posted was bovine fertilizer. If it weren't true and
unsettling to the parties involved
there would not have been threats of lawsuits against the original owner of
the site LASIKtruth.com.

Maybe if there was any truth on "Lasiktruth.com" there would be no
threat of lawsuits.

Lasiktruth.com is true. That's why the named individuals were so rattled.

What "named individuals"? There is nothing here but unsubstantiated
innuendo wrapped up in paranoid fantasy and persecution complex.
