| 2009-11-10 | Bill Maltby | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Although the answer I got was totally not the one I wanted, you did make it very clear. I wish to thank you for your time and effort. I just don't know what to do now, with no job, no insurance and physically unable to work means no income. Just another person falling thru the crack of life. |
| 2009-11-05 | Shannon | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you again, only she really knows her relationship thus far with her Dr. if it is indeed all that she has said then this correspondence has been more then helpful! Thank you for your time, I hope this can help someone else in the future. |
| 2009-10-18 | Sheila | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | |
| 2009-10-15 | A | 10 | 7 | 6 | 3 | No | Thank you. Yes I will be getting it removed. I've been reporting the adverse event to the company, Bayer, and I update as I have updates. I am also contacting the FDA and reporting to them. I will not be getting another IUD inserted and I agree Mirena should be taken off the market. |
| 2009-10-07 | Megan | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks so much for the advice. It is greatly appreciated! |
| 2009-10-07 | Rick | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you. |
| 2009-09-23 | Thea | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you Mr. Dorfman for your time and expertise. |
| 2009-09-21 | Mary Burleson | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you so much for your timely and thorough response. I agree and see this as a nuisance type of case. She would be disrespectful and unappreciative if she complained but you know people do it all the time. Disrespectfulness would not be a reason to dismiss a case, however, it may be difficult to find a representative. Nonetheless, the only question I have been unable to answer is if there is such a situation as when a decision is made under the duress of pain. Is the "duress of a person's pain" cause for litigation. Ex. This lady claims she was under the duress of labor pain when she verbally requested the epidural. I only see "duress" being defined as an immediate threat to a person's life or well-being if that person does not perform an act. Again, I am very thankful for you taking the time for this discussion. |
| 2009-09-20 | Sandra | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for answering my question so quickly. I am not seeking to get rich from this, I just want to be normal again. I want my life back. As far as compensation, I feel this doctor should be the one to pay for my treatment. I currently have no insurance and I have no bank account. How am I supposed to get a neurologist to take my case and fix me without insurance. i am having a cat scan run on monday so hopefully they will find the problem and my doctor is sending me to a neurologist but I dont know how I will pay him. Anyway, thak you for your oponion and your help. |

| 2009-09-16 | Christina | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | |
| 2009-09-16 | Christina | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for getting back to me so quickly! Your answer has saved me a lot of time. |
| 2009-09-06 | Mary | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for your speedy response and expert opinion |
| 2009-09-06 | Debra | 8 | 8 | 10 | 8 | No | Mr. Dorfman, You have made sense and I thank you for taking to time to read and respond to both my questions. I suppose I had more emotions then I intended in my questions. I hope you don't take offense. While I still feel some communication was needed in my situation between me and my doctors that would have allowed me some choice or forwarning, I understand and appreciate what you said. Thank you again. |
| 2009-09-06 | Conrad | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Extremely fast and helpful response on a situation that has had our family going on a physically and mentally roller coaster,thank you so much for your input. |
| 2009-09-05 | katherine | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for your reply. Bless you and hope I can find someone. |
| 2009-08-20 | Paul Mayer | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | I thank you for your answer.I understand about the infections. I think its wrong my quality of life has changed and at the moment I face brankruptcy from this. |
| 2009-08-18 | Brenda | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | I'll score your response as a 5. You have not seen all the evidence. I don't agree with your accusation that my daughter obtained the phentermine illegally. I would bet my life that she did not. Your statement: "Yes, it would have been malpractice to automatically renew such prescriptions without some level of monitoring." I did indicate that this was the case -- there was no monitoring whatsoever! The Phentermine should not have been given to her in the first place... but it certainly should not have been re-prescribed for over a year. I have records showing that from 11/28/2009 to 12/24/2008 that he (or someone in his office) approved 22 prescriptions totaling 750 pills. Dosage is 1 per day. |
| 2009-08-17 | Keli | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | thank you so much I appreciate your time to answer my question!! |
| 2009-08-11 | Jamila | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | He was very prompt in answering my question and answered it to the best of his abilities. |
| 2009-08-05 | Cathy Potgieter | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Dear Glenn I thank you for you quick response. Unfortunately I live in South Africa. I will take action immediately now that I got you you response back, I feel more confident. I will definitely start looking for a firm in South Africa that specialises in these cases. Thanks again for your quick response, It is greatly appreciated !! |
| 2009-07-30 | Kevin | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | |
| 2009-07-26 | Rob | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you very much for the quick and professional response. |
| 2009-07-26 | Wanda | 9 | 9 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for your timely response. I only take the methodone maybe once a week I am really afraid of it as well as the other narcotics. Again, thanks. |
| 2009-07-07 | Marie | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | |
| 2009-06-24 | Amanda | 9 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | The answer does make sense, thank you. Just to add on Methotrexate, it is given to treat ectopic pregnancies also. As a cancer drug it goes after rapidly producing cells such as that with a growing pregnancy and breaks it down. |
| 2009-06-23 | MommyOF3 | 8 | 8 | 1 | 1 | No | I asked for your thoughts and you answered like a lawyer would. I never planned on taking any action besides leaving this dentistry. My point was the care and consideration for the patient was absolutely disregaurded. Yes, it is a "emergency" when a 3 yr. old looses a tooth, considering they don't get new ones for 4 more yrs. and it could have been saved in milk and put back in within 30 minutes of the incident. Life threatening no but not the type of medical attention I want my child to receive when I call with an emergency. Thanks for answering my question. |
| 2009-06-17 | John | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | |
| 2009-06-17 | Randy | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thankn you and God Bless |
