Dental Board Case Dismissed for Garcia Law Client
Garcia Law is proud to announce a significant win for one of our clients—a general dentist—after a complex and emotionally charged Dental Board complaint was officially dismissed.
The complaint, filed by a former patient, alleged that the dentist had:
Abandoned the patient during treatment,
Refused to prescribe pain medication,
Provided negligent care, and
Falsified billing records.
These are serious accusations that could have had lasting consequences on the dentist’s professional reputation and license. However, Attorney Stacy Garcia worked closely with the client to craft a detailed and compelling response that addressed each allegation head-on.
Through careful documentation and a thorough understanding of the case, Ms. Garcia demonstrated that the patient was not a credible witness and provided the Board with overwhelming evidence that the allegations unfounded and should be dismissed without a hearing. In fact, the evidence showed that the dentist had gone above and beyond to provide care—making multiple follow-up attempts and offering evaluations that the patient ultimately refused.
Over the course of several months, Ms. Garcia remained in close communication with both the client and the Dental Board investigator. She ensured the Board was kept informed of ongoing, unsolicited communication from the patient and continued to advocate for the dentist’s position with professionalism and persistence.
This dismissal of the complaint is a testament to the power of a well-prepared defense and the importance of having an experienced advocate in your corner. At Garcia Law, we are committed to protecting the careers and reputations of deserving healthcare professionals across Texas.
