What an awful, judgemental, discriminating organization. I was seeking help for my BPD diagnosis and their search states, "Borderline Personality Disorder is a kind of mental illness". Obviously to these psychopaths looking to help those of us with a 'kind of' mental illness, they probably need help in dealing with narcissism, insensitivity and stigma causing themselves. Just terrible. Heartless souls. Might be 'University experts', but we can read false news too. Its in built and its absolutely draining to have to read people all the time, whether face-to-face or through words. As if we do not have enough emotional turmoil going around in our heads. If you are a US citizen paying these crooks, dont give them a penny more. Obviously the writer of this article took out 'kind of' but its visible in search results. Its a f££king crippling mental illness and ten percent of us will die by suicide. These 'medical experts' have no idea!

I am a physician, a patient, and a patient advocate. My surgery involved three Johns Hopkins department directors - Dr. Nicholas Theodore, Dr. Christopher Lippincott, and Dr. Chad Gordon. Contrary to the accepted standard of care for hardware-associated delayed surgical site infections (C.Acnes and CoNS) with exposed occipital hardware and cervical scar dehiscence - and despite the irrefutable evidence that my dehiscing cervical wound is indeed infected according to clinical history, countless photos, and the July 2022 Cervical MRI - Dr. Theodore and Dr. Gordon opened and closed my cervical spine without obtaining cultures, without debridement, and without removal of the infected cervical hardware, then they put complex, poorly vascularized grafts over the infected area. Afterwards, Dr. Lippincott refused to answer my reasonable questions within his area of expertise, assuring me that Dr. Theodore can "eyeball" an open surgical site containing hardware to rule out infection. Apparently, Dr. Lippincott believes that Dr. Theodore, with his superhuman vision, can detect the presence or absence of biofilm on embedded cervical hardware, absolving him of the need to adhere to the accepted standard of care for hardware-associated delayed surgical site infections. I beg to differ, so I filed a twenty page complaint with all relevant government agencies and Johns Hopkins Hospital, to which Dr. Henry Brem responded with platitudes. Dr. Brem failed to address my detailed list of the egregious lapses in the accepted standard of care for hardware-associated delayed surgical site infections and hardware-associated cranial osteomyelitis - or the many violations of medical ethics, so I have now made this twenty page complaint and his response public. Patients need to know.
