Dr. Jihad Hussein Kaouk Reviews

  • Oct 9, 2017

Federal prosecutors are investigating Dr. David Samadi, a foreign trained urologist for performing concurrent surgeries without patient knowledge or consent using residents to perform the surgeries for which Samadi billed. Samadi had financial ties to Intuitive Surgical, Inc., the manufacturer of the da Vinci robot, known to be defective and causing devastaing harm to patients. The Boston Globe estimated Mr. Samadi's annually income to be nearly $7M. read here

Jihad Kaouk at the Cleveland Clinic, a foreign trained urologist, also from Lebanon like Dr. Samadi, was cited in CMS investigations for performing concurrent surgeries without patient knowledge or consent using resididents to perform the surgeries for which Mr.

Kaouk billed. Federal prosecutors are not yet investigating Mr. Kaouk. read here

Mr Kaouk represented positive surgical outcomes of 95-100% to patients and then told CMS investigators that only "one third" of his patients recovered after his surgeries. Cleveland Clinic in adverstisements displaying Mr. Kaouk in images and quotes also represented similar outcomes. Mr. Kaouk stated the da Vinci was the "Gold Standard" and did not inform patients of his conflict of interest with Intuitive Surgical.

Mr. Kaouk represented to patients he had performed 2000 prostatetomies, 1000 open and 1000 robotically. Court records show that he had performed approximately 400, many of which were performed by his residents, not him.

In addition to false claims of volume experience and outcomes, Mr. Kaouik respresented many false claims including an Iowa Medial License, "Board Eligible" by the American Board of Urology, Urology Board Certified in his "home country", AMA, Fellow of American College of Surgeons, and three Cleveland Clinic Fellowships - all false.

The Iowa Medical Board stated he withdrew his application because he did not meet their minimum requirements.

The American Board of Urology said they did not recognize the term "Board Eligible" at the time Mr. Kaouk made this statement under oath in the Gagliano trial.

The Arab Board of Urology stated he was NOT Board Certified in Urology.

At the time Mr. Kaouk claimed to be a member of FACS, he was not Board Certified and ineligible to be a member.

The AMA stated he had NEVER been a member.

My attempts to bring accountability for my harm, harm to a "staggering number" of other deceived patients, was met with the full force of the Cleveland Clinic legal team. A google search of "Jihad Kaouk Medical Harm" will display some of these efforts.

A botched live donor kidney transplant patient and family created a website "kidneytransplantkiller" to share their story. Kaouk's patient, the donor, had the kidney "ripped" out of her and destroyed, and for which she had to undergo reconstructive surgery to repair the damage caused by Kaouk.

Another botched live donor kidney transplant complaint was recently filed in Cuyahoga County Court.

Mr. Kaouk has filed a legal complaint to stop me from posting truthful entries like this one. Truth is a complete defense against such actions.
