Hello family,

My father has been battling this terrible disease for four years now. AFter his mandibulecotmy with a fibula free flap he has experienced hell. The surgery never healed right and about a year now from surgery his titanium plate is showing through his skin. The surgeon my dad used was a hot shot in the Midwest area and we heard a lot of good things about him but follow up has been terrible. His attitude and willingness to explain is terrible. Now he has told us he is at the end of the rope with my dad seems he is just too busy.

Ohh well kind of expected it knew health care is a big business now. But either way has anyone had similar experience with their plate being exposed. I have no idea what to do for my father now as I feel helpless. The surgeon has really put us in a tough spot.
