QFTGDMFT. I had issues with these touchers before in a different profession, and I wouldn't trust them to tell me what day it is.
Brother I feel for you, especially if the issue involved a loved one. It's been nine years since my dealings with them and my hatred is as white hot now as it was then.
WARNING TO ANYONE READING THIS: THE FOLLOWING IS LONG AND POTENTIALLY BORING -- BASICALLY THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF MY JOHNSON, WELL, EXCEPT, THAT IS, FOR THE BORING PART -- BUT, HEY, I NEED TO BLOW OFF A LITTLE STEAM. FEEL FREE TO SKIP.
Without going into all the details (that would take several pages and a couple hours), I filed a grievance with the Board against my dad's "oncologist" Harry Carloss over his complete mismanagement of dad's case. Among other things, "Dr." Carloss:
Failed to properly manage dad's original non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). How? In three years, Carloss ran exactly ONE (1) CT scan, and that was 6 months after he initially declared Dad to be in remission. The remainder of his "exams" consisted
entirely of ordering CBCs -- i.e. the cocksucker never even tested for basic cancer markersFailed to recognize the obvious symptoms and clinical signs (dad's RBC count, one of the few tests Carloss did order, fell continuously and precipitously for 36 consecutive months) of yet another burgeoning blood cancer, multiple myelomaHe attributed Dad's sudden and unexplained back pain (never had a history of back trouble whatsoever) to, get this, osteoporosis -- a disease of little old ladies -- WITHOUT EVEN ORDERING A BONE DENSITY SCAN. A sudden onset of unexplained (i.e. no injury, no obvious herniation, stenosis, etc...) back pain in a man over 40 is one of the cardinal symptoms of multiple myeloma, especially when coupled with anemia and elevated protein in blood (which Carloss's meager "testing" repeatedly showed). But noooo, 'Harry the Idiot' Carloss ASSUMED that a 6' 2" 215 pound, big-boned man had osteoFREAKINGporosis WITHOUT EVEN TESTING FOR IT.He allowed Dad to stay on a drug called Methotrexate (prescribed erroneously by another doctor for treatment of his back pain because that doc said it was from rheumatoid arthritis, even though he had no symptoms or clinical evidence of RA) without closely following for lymphoma relapse. Methotrexate is a potent immunosuppressant and has been associated with development of lymphoma. In other words, Carloss the Cocksucker felt it was ok for dad to stay on a drug which can cause a cancer for which he was supposedly in remission in order to treat a disease he demonstrably DID NOT HAVE.Once a diagnosis of multiple myeloma was made for Carloss by his goddamned assistant (who was not even a physician) -- YOU READ THAT RIGHT, HARRY CARLOSS, WHILE PLAYING AN ONCOLOGIST, COULDN'T DIAGNOSE TWO OBVIOUS BLOOD CANCERS, YET HIS ASSISTANT DID BY SIMPLY LOOKING BACK OVER CARLOSS'S OWN RECORDS (I'll perhaps elaborate in yet another agonizingly long post) -- Carloss prescribed a treatment regimen which was
not FDA approved for either myeloma or NHL (by this time Dad's NHL had in fact relapsed).Carloss never once got Dad's written, verbal, or even tacit approval for this improper course of treatment. This amounted to little more than unsanctioned, unapproved human experimentation without the patient's consent. Mengele would have been proud.As if all this wasn't bad enough, his own goddamned records prove Carloss improperly dosed his own unapproved treatment on at least FOUR separate occasions, once over-dosing him by 31% (studies show that cardiotoxicity occurs at 15% overdosing -- Dad had a 67% reduction in his cardiac output following Carloss's treatment) and under-dosed Dad by 52% three other times. It's no surprise that his both his myeloma and NHL demonstrably worsened under Carloss's "care."
To top off this shit-sandwich , Harry Carloss isn't even a trained oncologist -- although he practiced oncology in Paducah for 30 years and even advertised himself as "board-certified." Oh he's board-certified alright...in internal medicine, not oncology. To be a board-certified oncologist a physician must first complete a three-year internal medicine residency, and then complete an additional four-year residency in oncology/hematology, i.e. seven years total. Carloss completed two years (out of a required three) of internal medicine training in Louisville and then did one year (out of a required four) of oncology at some place in California (which only fulfilled his internal med requirements). He's no more a properly trained oncologist than a G touching P (not that there's anything wrong with GPs). Basically for 30+ years he perpetrated a fraud on the citizens of western Kentucky, often with deadly results.
Despite all this, despite copious documentation from Carloss's own records and citations from multiple medical sources, the good ol Kentucky Board of Medical Licensure said, and I never will forget this, that "
not only did Dr. Carloss properly care" for my father, but he did so "
in an exemplary fashion." EXEMPLARY. TOUCHING. FASHION.
I never wanted any money, never even filed a lawsuit. I simply wanted a jury of his peers to stand up and say that Carloss was a piece of shit that royally effed up on my Dad. I asked for them to revoke his license, but I would have been satisfied with a slap on the wrist -- just something, anything, so that arrogant, touching jackass would get put in his place. Instead, they said he acted in an exemplary fashion. Talk about pouring salt in a gaping wound.
If I wouldn't spend the rest of my life in prison I'd beat every one of the cocksuckers on the KBML who supported Carloss to within an inch of their miserable, worthless lives. I'd save my real wrath for good ol Harry
-- suffice it to say it'd make Marcellus's medieval work on Zed look like a full-body massage with a happy ending from the supermodel/babe of your choice in comparison. Lucky for him I'm a peaceful man and not prone to violence.
