Hold on there, cowgirl!

I have been a on this site for a couple of years now, and I can only think of one or two people who had TMJ pain.

I also can't think of anyone who had their nose ruined, either.

I had just about hundred percent, and so did a bunch of other people.

And I have not seen ANYONE complain about anything like that who went to Palo Alto. Never.

As for insurance, I had no hassle, and most, with persistence, work it out.

My advice: By all accounts, Dr. P is a straight shooter. He will tell you what he thinks. We had another poster who was freaking out, and Dr. P just said, "Its not for you." So just go and hear what he says. He does not need your money.

And reread BillinSeattle's Posts, and RFK's, and sleepy's. Read posters who went to Dr.P, (Or my guy, he was good too, or the Kentucky dude). The isolated horror stories tend to relate to the surgeon, not the surgery.
