Ted Schwartz doesn't deserve the respect to be called a doctor. He has ruined my life by performing a root canal on an absessed tooth that would not get numb because it was so infected. I was in so much pain and after multiple unsuccessful shots of Novocain,he continued drilling. The pain and fear was indescribale. He yelled at his nurse and I that this wasn't his fault, he claimed that he gave me enough shots for 3 people, he said I was resistant to the anesthetic, he knew i was in excruciating pain and scared to death but he still continued. I screamed for help and his receptionist would not let my driver come back to the room. She said sometimes this happens and everything was fine. My nurse in the treatment room worked for Schwartz for 15 years said she's never seen anything so bad. I was violated by a man with an electric drill holding me down in the chair to finish a root canal he never should have started without antibiotics for the infection. He should have stopped when begged over & over"please stop". Schwartz has a reputation for being a good doctor with bad bedside manner. For me it was assault. The infection spread throughout my body and almost killed me. Ater 2oral and 3major sinus surgeries to fix it,I'm still here
