My 19 yr old daughter had four wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Tidwell. He did surgery without effective pain medication, and humiliated her with inappropriate comments. Although she firmly protested that she was not numbed, he proceeded with the surgery. In response to her protests, Dr. Tidwell told her that she "was a wimp", and she would not remember afterwards that he was saying this to her.
I asked Dr. Tidwell, since he knew she was not adequately pain medicated, why he rushed with the surgery. He told me that she was just nervous and therefore proceeded over her protests. He felt no need to contact me prior to proceeding. He acknowledged the comments that he made to her, and said he was kidding.
Others should be aware of Dr. Tidwell's total disregard for the well-being of his patient, and his mistreatment that resulted in my daughters horrific experience of unmedicated dental surgery accompanied by his inappropriate and callous remarks.
