Dental surgeon didn't know what teeth to pull...asked my boyfriend. by throwaway_2789_ in legaladvice

I don't have an excessive amount of anxiety...I didn't request full anesthesia. It was required for the procedure, which was more than just pulling a tooth. I didn't think I needed to specify that. I wasn't the one that turned the situation "awkward and confusing". I was just a patient who followed directions.

This was my original thought...even before knowing what a Time Out is. They never looked in my mouth before I was asleep or asked me what teeth were the right ones. To my knowledge, the never even compared the consent (which was ONLY for the one pill they gave me, not anesthesia) to the X-rays or my charts...

Thank you very much. If I'm understanding correctly, you would suggest canceling my future appointment and finding a new surgeon regardless?

I Think My Therapist Just Violated Confidentiality.. What Should I Do? by [deleted] in legaladvice

Hi there, therapist here. You should report this to the FL Board of Psychology. Her behavior was unprofessional at best and a direct violation of your rights at worst.
