I do not recommend this doctor after having oral surgery around 2015 or so and to this day have severe neck problems as a result. The operation was a lingual frenectomy, z-plasty. The experience going in and service from the Doctor was good and I felt assured that it was a good idea and a relatively low risk operation that would improve my speech and tongue mobility. Basically, I was tongue tied and thought the operation would not extend beyond my mouth. After awaking from the surgery, I was told I would need to do stretching for the fascia in my neck and immediately felt major tension in my face, neck, collar bone, shoulder and scapula area, all on my right side. I thought that it was just soreness from the surgery but it only became more severe and restrictive over time. After that, I never felt the same and essentially my neck is now spring loaded with a twist to the right side that also makes swallowing and breathing a challenge. It is a perpetual distraction that causes pain, frustration and misery that much of the time hinders my ability to enjoy life. It takes major mental discipline to continue on without it hijacking my mood and attitude towards everything. I have difficulty working and socializing because of the effects. I spend a ton of time every single day cracking, popping, stretching, twisting, massaging and basically trying to find symmetry, rest and comfort in the bound tissues that are reconstructed as a result of the surgery. Every breath seems to be a reminder of the restrictions. I regret this operation and wish I new more about the risks and how invasive the actual procedure was before choosing to do it. I also take blame for this and advise anyone wishing to elect for a surgery to seriously consider and research it before proceeding. I find some relief from Yoga, ice baths, physical therapy and many other types of practices/therapies but nothing seems to give me the relief I so deeply need to feel "normal". Please understand the risks of letting someone cut on your body. You may wake up regretting what was done to you.
