Dr. Robert Faizon performed a Myomectomy on me in a way that directly violated the standard medical protocol for this procedure. He was well aware of the importance of abiding by the protocol that established that all uterine growths (even fibroids) are to be removed in tact because of the danger of possibly dissemenating an unidentified tumor, thus causing the undiagnosed cancer to infiltrate the Lymphovascular system, which essentially makes the cancer now untreatable and therefore, terminal. This doctor told me about this established protocal when a 12.3cm growth was discoverd in my uterus. He explained that because of this protocol and the size of the mass, he'd have to remove it using a large C-section type incision. I also spoke to him on several occasions about my fear that this growth was cancer and not a fibroid. At 40 years old, I had never had a fibroid nor polyp in my life. I have a few girlfriends that have had experiences with fibroids and the physical symptoms I was experiencing were incredibly more intense and life-altering than what my friends had described. The doctor simply reasured me that fibroids are extremely common and implied that I was being irrational. Fast forward to November 12, 2019 when I wake up in recovery after surgery feeling pretty good considering I was just waking from anesthesia. The doctor stopped by and told me he had gotten "it" out successfully and my uterus looked healthy. (I had asked him on several occasions and in front of medical staff as well as my mother to only leave the uterus if it was exceptionally healthy. I asked that it be removed if it was damaged in the least, because at almost 41 years old I'd already be very high-risk were I to get pregnant, even with a completely healthy uterus) When he told me how successful he had been in removing "it", I paused, tilted my head, and asked him once again, "Isn't it odd that a 12 centimeter fibroid pops up out of nowhere in a 40 year old with no history of fibroids?? I had expected that you'd find more because maybe my body's just changing." So that information made me feel even more afraid than I was before surgery. If this man was so oblivious as to not think this growth (which I later found out had reached 15cm by the day of the operation) could be anything other than just a huge, mutant fibroid, I was a fool for trusting a fool to decide whether or not my uterus looked viable. I was kicking myself for not just making the strong decision of having my uterus completely removed. I trusted this inept and clueless male doctor more that I trusted my gut and I knew I'd regret it. And nine days later, my fears were realized when this empty-headed doctor blankly told me that the growth was malignant and he'd be transferring me to a Gyno-Oncologist to schedule a hysterectomy. Two major surgeries in less than a month, both using the same incision. The whole experience drained me to my core, physically, mentally, and spiritually. ...but what I learned next nearly destroyed whatever little remaining spirit I had left in me.... Right in front of my face, a clear cut statement that cut me to my core: "The fibroid was removed in sections due to his dense adhesions but although the fibroid was removed and a portion of the endometrial cavity had to be removed as part of the surgery. There was a large defect in the uterus and using a 0 Vicryl we closed the defect from the base and advanced until we were at the serosa." He had lit the fuse on a bomb then sealed it back inside my body... Then I thought back on the moment months prior when my Mother and Sister happily came into my hospital room and excitedly told me that Dr. Faizon had spoken with them immediately following my surgery while I was still in recovery and told them how well the surgery had gone and that my Uterus looked "pink and healthy"... I truly believe that there is something deeply wrong with this man. And I'm not merely referring to his outrageously incompetent practice of Medicine, I'm referring to the immorality of using a surgical technique that is well-known (by HIM especially. HE explained the science to me in his office!) to cause rapid and painful deaths in otherwise healthy young women ON a woman you spoke to about it's dangers, deviously making that decision only after said young woman is unconscious with her abdomen sliced open... What he did caused what turned out to be a SARCOMA to completely devour my ENTIRE Uterus within a month. Dr. Robert Faizon has refused to have a discussion with me about the events of that day. The day that irrevocably altered my life, and indisputably greatly shortened it's expectancy. I think I'd have a hard time facing the person that is going to die as a result of my own arrogance, too... But it's disrespect piled on top of what's he's already done to me and my family. I DESERVE to hear you explain your rationale behind the mind-boggling decisions you made that day, Dr. Faizon! I'm a human being. read more

Robert A. Faizon, MD - Dr. Faizon is a liar, and apparently a con-artist. He never even did an Oncology ROUND in Med School! Oncology SPECIALIST??!! Unreal. - Doctors Near Me - Lancaster, Pennsylvania

"I was going to die, sooner or later, whether or not I had even spoken myself. My silences had not protected me. Your silences will not protect you.... Our speaking out will irritate some people, get us called b****y or hypersensitive and disrupt some dinner parties. And then our speaking out will permit other women to speak, until laws are changed and lives are saved and the world is altered forever." -A.L. 1978 Dr. Faizon was to perform an abdominal (C-section style cut) Myomectomy on me, in order to remove a 15.5cm Uterine mass 'en bloc'. He explained the importance of removing Uterine masses in one piece was due to "the unlikely event in which the fibroid is actually cancer." However, once I was anesthetized, unconscious and vulnerable, Dr. Faizon decided that the 15.5cm mass within the Uterus of a woman who had never even had a fibroid, was taking too long to remove 'en bloc', so he used his scalpel to DISSECT what turned out to be a deadly Sarcoma INSIDE me. He went to great lengths to hide this fact from me for months. He is a reckless, impulsive SURGEON, lacking even in character. In spite of his horrible record, LGH Penn Medicine has now made him the MEDICAL DIRECTOR of Ob-Gyn??!! THIS MAN SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO DESTROY ANOTHER WOMAN'S LIFE!!! read more
