No surgeon is infallible. And complications can happen with the
best. Growing up, everyone used to tell me what a brilliant
surgeon (oral maxillofacial surgeon) my father was. And he was
one of the best. He and I had a conversation the other day. He
told me that there were some cases that he wouldn't do. And he
would refer them to Dr. LW. And I asked if they went well. And
my father said yes. My feeling from what I have gathered is that
he is that good. And it sounds like he has the guts, ability, and
experience to take on cases other's don't. As for making a
name for himself- he has already done that. As for over-
promising a bit- that may go with the territory of being a
surgeon. :)These are just my opinions and those of my father and a couple
of other oral surgeons. Perhaps you can ask him for some
names of his most challenging cases and ask them how things
went.I wish and hope the best for you.
