Attached is a cephalometric of Dr. Schendel's surgery (attachments aren't yet showing up -- hopefully Google fixes this). As you can see, I was 15mm recessed before surgery, and still 13mm recessed after surgery. The 2mm of "advancement" came from clockwise elongation of the jaw. I required counter-clockwise rotation, yet Dr. Schendel moved the jaws clockwise, as clearly shown in the cephalometric. Yet, despite all the evidence in the ceph and in the flesh, he stubbornly claims that he corrected my skeleton, rotated it counter-clockwise, and that it looks great. Meanwhile, every doctor I have seen has been shocked at this result, and informed me I need revision surgery to correct the bite stably. Unfortunately, I gave him 60k out of pocket to do so, my entire life savings, so I cannot get the surgery I need. I asked him for a refund so I could get the surgery I need, and he said to, "talk to his insurance company", essentially starting a lawsuit. I had to sue him. In court, his attorney talked him up as a great guy who goes to Africa to do charity work. Yet, for his own patient who gave him 60k cash in life savings, he could not even issue a refund despite the glaring problems with his surgery. What kind of sociopath does this? In court, he denied and/or lied about almost everything and said (paraphrasing) that the anterior and posterior maxilla are the same and that the way you move the jaws doesn't matter. Can you believe this? I hope other informed patients and maxillofacial surgeons read this and realize how embarrassing Schendel's knowledge base is. It's sad when a patient knows more than the doctor. He is a flat out liar to patients when things go wrong, and he even will lie under oath. Apparently nothing, not even a court of law, can stop his sociopathic lying. His friend Clark O. Taylor was his expert witness, and is also an avid and adept liar. He knows I am in extreme pain 24/7 because of how he left the bite (see photo of massive posterior open bite). I can no longer chew food properly or sleep because of how the malocclusion. He doesn't care. He only cares about protecting his falsely acquired reputation and the money. His peers state that in the medical field he is viewed as a poor surgeon who looks great on paper yet cannot deliver in the operating room. In court, the jury did not see all the evidence. His attorney, John C Kelly out of Long Beach, selectively choose images that didn't show the severity of the open bite and also succeeded in having the judge dismiss key evidence (evidence they were afraid of because it clearly showed the problems), yet despite having the best evidence inadmissible for technical reasons, 3 jurors still voted in favor of malpractice. What can you say about a doctor who does all this and puts his patient through all this? I don't have the words, but the images say 1,000 of them. In my experience and opinion, AVOID this surgeon at all costs.
