As a tech, I work for a handful of ODs and MDs. I get that a surgeon, especially a good one, can be hard to come by. I consistently see patients from a particular MD, that I don’t work with/for, but works for the same company.

It’s about, just me handling her post ops that get last minute scheduled to my OD/MD, her surgeries go rather bad.

As an example; yesterday I saw a one day post op, whose vision had actually gotten worse. Which I can get happens, although this patient explicitly stated that the surgeon said “whoops”, during the surgery. Then didn’t elaborate when the patient asked about that, which understandably freaked her out.

After talking with another two techs who more regularly work for her, they had similar patients from just this month.

This, along with her patients I’ve dealt with first hand; a bad shunt put in, and a patient that never had his drops sent out for pre- nor post-op, make me wonder what’s supposed to happen to a surgeon like this.

Normally I’d chop it up to hearsay, although it seems rather consistent between the 4-5 offices she goes to, and it seems like whoever at the top just doesn’t give a fuck.
