I was referred to Dr. Alex Walker when it came time for my wisdom teeth to be extracted. The extent of my dental work up until then was one root canal and tooth extraction, for which I was sedated by the very pleasant Dr. Gordon Green in Lyons, IN. I was told that I would be sedated sufficiently for the procedure, and yet I remained awake the entire time. The aftermath of the surgery was horrifying; I am still having to explain to strangers that I didn't get beat up. Walker was so rough with my tiny face that there was bruising all the way up under my eye, making it look as though someone punched me and gave me a black eye.
When I returned to see him for a follow-up (which I was very reluctant to do in the first place), he proceeded to tell me that I was a difficult case, with at least one of my wisdom teeth growing over a nerve, and all four having been impacted. Yet he refused to prescribe me anything more for my immense pain, telling me that 60 total 5mg hydrocodone pills were sufficient, even though I made sure he knew they were gone and I had nothing to treat the incredible pain. He has a very poor bedside manner and I have never been treated so poorly by a medical "professional." This man deserves to lose business.
