Avoid Kaiser: lousy MDS, botched operations, and bad medical opinions

My Dad had famous Dr. Iantoska operate on one cataract eye: perfect.
The next eye was botched operation by Kaiser and Dad bled during surgery and almost lost the eye.

I had my cut foot only partially sewn closed. "Stay on your Mom's  couch,foot elevated over the top back, and replace daily the sterile gauze packing to prevent infection." 7 months !! Gave up on female orthopedic surgeon  and let scab over 3-4 times without any infection. Went back to work.

Asked for a "second opinion" on "partial quad thigh muscle tear" diagnosis. It was a complete tear,not partial . But second Kaiser MD lied too, "partial tear, just rest easy and it will heal perfectly."
