I do not understand why he is still allowed to walk around free and even worse practice medicine? He ruined my mother’s life, and he should be locked up. He did an unnecessary surgery on my mom. She is now dead, and the last few years of her life were hell because of this “dr.”

Comment on The Quaid Foundation – Chasing Zero by Barbara LaMore

I was a kidney donor many years ago. I was left sitting in a chair as my bedding was taken and then never replaced . I was left without any ability to reach the call button. I had no pain meds administered ,nothing to eat or drink for many hours.I was crying in pain and agony when my husband came to my rescue. He went into the hall and yelled”so you throw away the donor once you take the organ”%&%#! As it was I had been in surgery 4hrs longer than I was suppose to be. When I emerged I had been gutted. the incision was not small in fact it went from my sternum to my belly button. When my husband and I asked what had happened we were never told . Along with my DR’S , I was unable to obtain my records for 7 yrs. Even then there was no explanation for the lengthy surgical stay. Nor was there any explanation for the large incision or the cut to my diaphragm.We trust total strangers with our lives. We teach our children not to.

I went to a Walgreen Pharmacy unfamiliar to me, since our preferred Walgreen pharmacy was unable to fill my son’s prescription of Lovenox. I asked the Pharmacist ” Are there any special directions I need to be aware of?” He stated “Just give one syringe Twice daily (am & pm) . I stated ,”OK, I am not familiar with this med so I will sit and read the instructions” If I had listened to the pharmacist; I would have given my son .1ml TOO much of Lovenox at each administration( twice daily). I made sure that the Pharmacist was aware that he had given me the wrong dose to administer and I notified Walgreens Pharmacy also. Always read the instructions – You are the first line of defense!!

Warning ! Be very careful if you are required to administer Lovenox. The syringes are not scaled. If you are prescribed .2mls of Lovenox, You will receive pre-drawn syringes of .3mls of Lovenox. You will need to find a vessel/ measuring device in order to discard .1ml of Lovenox to ensure the proper dose is administered . I notified Sanofi that their company should include a measuring device for discarding unwanted medicine to ensure the accurate prescribed dose of medication is administered. By using a scaled syringe filled with .1ml of water : I finally found that the center of my plastic compass used for geometrical measurements in Math held .1ml of Lovenox. I was able to then discard the unwanted amount of medication and administer the proper dose of Lovenox to ensure my child’s safety. Talk about the room for medication errors!!!!!! Why is this allowed???
