You must have been in the waiting room the same day my appt was. A full house of what 20 people back in 2003 while we all sat for 4 hours. Yep, i was dumb enough to sit that long and miss that much work. But as we all started talking to pass time one by one shared how he saved each others lives. Was i sent to a saint?

He did what he could conservatively with me, I feel. However, he performed an additional surgery on my elbow (ulnar nerve transposition) never discussed with me and my husband, no chart documentation nor did we consent to the elbow surgery. Sent me home within-in a 24hr recovery after a 6-hr bilateral costaclavicular decompression surgery & right ulnar nerve decompression, with absolutely no instruction or pain meds. Call afeter call then ended up in the ER in such severe pain worse than pre-surgery... As the days i recovered post op the news spread rampant in the OC Register. O geesh, our hearts dropped into our stomachs as we reasearched the list of no-no's, firings from hospitals and procedures he performed not approved at UCI and...(?) Then when my symptoms reappeared within 30 days and told me to "give it time" each and every month for a year. He finally threw up his hands after a CTS which didnt rectify a thing except send me to the ER after PVC's and a BP of 170/100 spiked, a cardiologist and 30-day holter moniter. It was a mess to say the least.

Now people and professionals had a serious beef with Chambi but as you and others are proof positive he took trauma patients and brought them back to life. Is he still in practice?
