I filed a claim with The Doctors Company against Dr. Manish H. Shah, DR0043479, 101 University Blvd #220, Denver, CO 80206, but their alleged thorough investigation was cursory at best and did not include viewing the permanent CO2 laser peel burn injury damage burned into my skin/face by Dr. Manish Shah's aggressive CO2 laser. TDC relied on photographs which can be digitally-altered and time stamps manipulated. Photographs are NOT proof, and definitely not evidence. A claims investigation cannot be deemed complete without first-hand viewing of the damage which I requested both verbally and written on several occasions. The Doctors Company denied my claim TWICE without a first-hand viewing of the CO2 laser peel burn injury damage to my skin/face. TDC's so-called 'independent expert' also ignored evidence of substandard medical practice in my medical record and email documentation which document the lack of pre-/post-procedure medical care.
Dr. Manish H. Shah permanently burned CO2 laser peel burn injury damage into my skin/face. There are lines, gouges and craters (loss of volume) that were NOT present on my skin/face prior to Dr. Shah's aggressive CO2 laser procedure. There was ZERO pre-procedure medical care despite a prescribed prescription/skin care protocol (Dr. Shah and staff didn't bother) two weeks prior to the procedure. When I expressed extreme dissatisfaction with the damage Dr. Shah burned into my skin/face, he cancelled the remaining appointments in writing denying me medical care meant to follow-up the procedure. Dr. Shah offered me a complementary fat grafting treatment (approx. $5, 000) in writing in an attempt to resolve this issue, but I would never trust him again. Dr. Shah has tried to blame previous damage, but it was minuscule compared to the extensive, extreme damage from Dr. Shah's CO2 laser procedure. I'm devastated. I would give ANYTHING to have my skin as it was before Dr. Shah's aggressive CO2 laser procedure. If Dr. Shah responds to this review, it doesn't matter what he says. I'm speaking truth. read more
