Business ProfileforNevada Oral & Facial Surgery

If I could leave a zero star review that would be more accurate! Dr. ****** was educated on how to read MRI results however he neglected to inform me that I have thyroid CANCER. I found out by accident nearly 3 years later, the cancer doubled from what was measured on the MRI results that Dr. ****** signed off on. The cancer spread to distant lymph nodes. It is apparent that the metastatic spread could of been avoided if Dr. ****** would of informed me that I have cancer. He refused to speak to me when I called his office. He had his office staff relay the message that I had a cyst on my nose and should see an ENT doctor. His message to me was to look in the phone book for a plastic surgeon to operate on the infection I had from previous dental surgery. Dr. ****** never once mentioned the large thyroid nodule that was found. He was educated to know a nodule that size indicates cancer. I was referred to him because he is supposed to be an oral surgeon and if the tests indicated that I had an infection he would be the doctor to operate on me to remove the infection. Dr. ****** refused to operate on me. I found a qualified oral surgeon to operate on me, an oral surgeon who has a degree as a medical doctor and a dentist. Dr. ****** only has a dental degree. Dr. ****** was the ordering physician who signed off on my MRI results. He had a duty to inform me of the findings. Dr. ****** refuses to take responsibility for his failure and now blames others for his incompetence
