A false claim of a disfiguring jaw surgery I never did that way
This account was submitted by a healthcare provider and de-identified before publication. Details that could identify a patient or practice have been removed, and it is shared with the provider’s consent.
What was posted
A post claimed I had "disfigured" a patient during corrective jaw surgery, with dramatic before and after language.
What actually happened
The description does not match the procedure performed, but a public rebuttal would disclose the patient's care.
Impact
On a platform where patients compare surgeons, one vivid claim can outweigh a hundred good outcomes.
Steps taken
I built a documentation packet for counsel, who advised against any public response.
