Richard Kaplan Oral Surgeon placed dental implants in the wrong area of mouth for restoration, did not place back implant deep enough (failed) and did provide adequate follow up care. Ripoff West Palm Beach Florida
I was referred to Dr. Richard Kaplan for dental implants. Dr. Kaplan did not place the 2 implants correctly (area or depth). Back implant became uncovered less than 10 days after surgery. I called and said it was uncovered and he told his assistant (I could hear him) - tell her not to worry about it.
My website is a teaching website for bad dentistry and stresses the need for the public to give informed consent for any dental treatments. Make sure that the person performing the work is skilled and competent.
The implant was just removed by another dentist and the area grafted.
Dr. Kaplan is now suing myself to try and remove my website from the public's view.
sorry, allowing you to give a competitors name would instigate others to just file against their competition, to only come back later to suggest their company your comments on this policy are welcome!

I would really like to get in touch with Elaine about my situation. I think what she did was an excellent idea. I love the idea of a non-profit organization.
I am experiencing my own nightmare. I plan on reporting it but after I get my own information gathered to cause some real problems for the dentist and receptionist who ruined my life. I'm afraid if they find out about the information I'm gathering, it will give them a heads up and they'll do everything in their power to cover it up.
I'm referring to unethical practices, insurance fraud, and the manipulation of identity information in order to get a higher financed loan amount.
The loan would have never been approved had his receptionist not made false statements about our identity. WE NEVER EVEN SIGNED IT!
