In the 9 years since I had my surgery that I now describe as "torture" because it should not have happened other than for money under the table by Carole Wells Doheny, and billing both Medicare and Medi-Cal, I have learned so much about the medical profession and the almighty dollar.
I hope from my horrible experience that something good will come out of my pain, and to prevent someone else's pain - both men and women. The word CANCER scares the heck out of every person who is told that directly, for themselves or for a loved one, whether they are family or friend. Therefore, this blog is for things to look out for if you find yourself in a doctor's office and you hear that word, CANCER. There is a very good reason why the federal government made it law that all persons diagnosed with cancer are required to be listed on the NATIONAL CANCER REGISTRY. Had it not been for that law, I could not prove to myself and the federal authorities that I never had cancer, and Dr. Oliver Dorigo and UCLA Health System would have gotten away with the fraud and torture they subjected me to on may 28, 2008.
When I finally left UCLA in September 2009, I was referred to a general practitioner at Saint John's Medical Center in Santa Monica. Had it not been for Saint John's, I would never have known about the meaning of the CA-125 test and how vital it is for any woman who is told she has cancer from the waist down. I will not name the doctor here because it would make life miserable for him or her by the medical professionals on the "Westside of Los Angeles." This doctor told me that anything under 35 on the CA-125 test means "no cancer" and anything above 35 has to then be double checked to be sure that cancer cells are in fact in the body (female body). My number was 29 one week before surgery!
The National Cancer Registry and the CA 125 Test gave me absolute evidence that I never had cancer, and that Dr. Dorigo and all people involved knew this one week in advance of my surgery on May 28th. They had and needed Dr. Elizabeth Wagar, the Head of Pathology at UCLA to falsify the medical records, changing Carole Wells Doheny's name to mine. No one expected me to become a "Dr. Watson" (without Sherlock Holmes) to uncover the whole fraud and massive implications nation-wide.. from Tampa, FL to Seattle, WA to Los Angeles, CA.
Medicare Fraud is on the same scale as Organized Crime in this country. Thank God, Dr. Fata in Michigan was sentenced to 45 years in federal prison for Medicare Fraud and subjecting his patients to unnecessary chemotherapy. And that's just for chemotherapy... do you get 100 years in prison for "torture"?
