Need Help Finding A Pharmacy To Fill Dr. Bynes Prescriptions (Page 8)

I live in Savannah, Chatham County, Georgia. Diagnosed suffering from Degenerative Disc Disease, with Cervical Radiculopathy (one bulging disc) and Lumbar Radiculopathy (two bulging discs). These spinal problems are diagnosed by three (3) recent CAT Scans, with radiologist analyses. And yes, I have ALL of the CAT Scan CDs, and radiologist reports. I went to Frank Howard Bynes, M.D., a retired trauma surgeon, and practicing internal medicine M.D., here in Savannah, Ga, for help with severe pain control. I was written valid prescriptions for: Roxicodone 30 mg; Dilaudid 8 mg; Xanax 2 mg; Fentanyl 100mcg/hr transdermal patch; Soma 350 mg; Neurontin 800 mg. ALL, YES ALL local pharmacies, will NOT honor ANY of these prescriptions. I was a previous patient of David M. Nelson, M.D. here in Savannah, March 2010 to March 2013, and had to endure this same B.S. then, also. This medical community, with the exception of Dr. Bynes, refuses to help me- Where is their Hippocratic Oath allegiance??? I cannot work, nor even function normally each day, because of the severe pain. I have been living off of the proceeds from the Workman's Compensation settlement I received in October 2012, from the accident at Georgia Port Authority in October 2009, here in Savannah. About out of money now, and have no income. I need help with pharmacy information.

Hey meanie Graham35 LoL I'm just kidding sweetie or sir which ever you are. But I talked with the after hours # & you ARE CORRECT! She said they are opening back up next week but with a different doctor, but then she did say she's checking with Dr's. Sounded like she had a lot going on in the background. So just be patient ppl. That lady needs her $, she is trying, and she is very nice & I hate she is going thru this mess. I truly wonder what they had on Bynes to make his over confident butt surrender!?!

Graham35 (# 143) -

The internet is so full of mistaken info that I hate to post more. I usually only say what I've been told first hand by a verifiable source, but in this case I can't confirm this because it's "third hand" and the person who told me is often wrong: That being said if somebody was there, they can verify it.

I was told by someone who "knew" someone that the DEA sent a perfectly healthy undercover agent into his office as a "new patient" Apparently this agent convinced Dr. Bynes to write them a prescription for pain killers, then the DEA arrested him on the spot. He was given the choice of surrendering his license or going to jail.

So who is right, Max or Graham?

My vote is on Max. It's about time that pill pusher is gone, and can't hurt anyone by getting them addicted to opiates.

Re: Steve (# 145)

I dont understand what you mean by who is right, Max or Gram. I saw what Max wrote about why he was shut down (hear say, and he let us know it was hear say), but dont see Gram giving any explanation.

Tammy --

We now know for a fact that he voluntarily surrendered his medical license. You wouldn't do that if you were planning to go into pain management. Don't get me wrong, we LOVED the man, he was caring and compassionate and we are having a very difficult time finding a replacement. I wish that we had the luxury of "waiting a couple of weeks" for him to reopen his office or start a practice somewhere else but
the facts that I know for certain don't support that happening.

Re: Tammy (# 148)

So many of y'all in denial about bynes he is done he is not coming back and from my understanding from someone else who was also there that day they made all the patients leave so how do u know what happened later his license are gone and most likely will never get another license in Ga he has 2 go back to school for pain management because that was not his specialty

Oh My, this Dr Byrnes worked for our government CLINIC!!!, YES, plus you will pay cash 175.00 straight up to see him. He's been busted 3 times in less than 6 months. He worked in the Hood and the Hood sold them. If you look up his record he was run out of New York. The man is not all there, maybe taking to much of his own medicine. How many doctors open an office in a diabetic shoe store? LOL. True I know it I saw it.

People please, Medicaid pays for these prescriptions then they sell them to supplement their government monthly checks. Believe me, the system sucks but I'm glad he got escorted out of Garden City and they don't play. Matter of fact I think I'll call their Mayor. He definitely won't be back there. He's never done a urine test to even see if the patient even took the drugs. A Rat is a Rat and I'm tired of seeing it day after day and think of the little check I get working everyday with these people. I see it first hand so all y'all know I'm telling the Truth Straight! Take Him off the Street and take his License!! If he even has a Real One.

When you are this unhappy with a physician that is of no use to you, then you must change. I would look on Yelp or the equivalent in your area and I now ALWAYS pay $9.95 to research your prospective Physician. I went 12 yrs to a Pain Specialist, 1 hour away and until he injured me badly with clogged pain pump which almost paralyzed me, I found out he was on 3 year probation. I complained to the Medical Board in CA. and he got 1 more probation year. ALWAYS CHECK.

Re: unknown (# 3)

SO AGREE with 'unknown'. When your Doc wrote all those scripts all at once the pharmacy said,' Oh heck No"!! FDA is monitoring pharmacies in all states to watch for abuse and the Doctor that orescribed them. I think unknown is correct!

He isn't coming back, totally correct! BUT the office is looking for a new doctor. I went back to my old doctor in the mean time.

Re: cardiB (# 156)

Can you share your old Dr's name? My mom also used Bynes and she needs a primary care for her heart conditions.

Re: cardiB (# 156)

What really sucks is that we still need a new Dr. and nobody wants to post a Dr's name online (rightfully so). But this site does not allow personal phone numbers or email addresses.

Re: unknown (# 3)

Yes, please do find another Dr. That is very unsafe medication prescribing. People are dying from taking this amount of narcotics.
