OK, so both the defendant and plaintiff agree that mercury was involved.  In that case, the defendant stating that fact is not libel - it's simply a statement of fact.  Libel is intended to prevent *untrue* statements from being presented as fact.

You can get a lawyer to sue for anything, if you look hard enough......and i work for them!  lol.  The ones I work for wouldn't do this, but there are some lawyers, usually the young ones that don't get into a firm and have to hang a shingle, or older, slimier ones that are only looking to make money.  I think it would be interesting to know if the lawyer that filed this suit is working on an hourly base or a contingency fee.  I'm almost willing to bet money that it's an hourly fee.  So, what does he/she care if they win or not, they get their fees either way.</p><p>Of course, that type of lawyer is always taking a risk, because it is against the professional code of conduct to file \"frivolous\" lawsuits.  He/she could get in alot of trouble for this, possibly even get disbarred if they make a habit of it.</p>        </div>	<div class=\"reply\">	 <div class=\"reply-button\"><a title=\"Reply\" href=\"javascript:void(0);\" onclick=\"mtReplyCommentOnClick(10040020, 'Flame')\">Reply</a></div>		 	    </div><!-- end reply- button -->    </div></div>                <!-- Display comment (reply comment, which may be a parent of more replies) -->            <div class=\"inner-reply-container\" >                 <!-- For each reply comment, recursively display any reply comments -->          	    </div>        	</div>     <!-- For each reply comment, recursively display any reply comments -->          	    </div>        	</div>     <!-- For each reply comment, recursively display any reply comments -->          	    </div>        	</div>    </div>","<div class=\"comments-content\">        <div class=\"comment\" id=\"comment-10028000\">    <div class=\"inner\">	 <div class=\"user-pic\">        <a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;amp;blog_id=1&amp;amp;id=101399\"><img        src=\"/css/images/default.gif\"        width=\"60\" height=\"60\" alt=\"user-pic\" /></a>    </div>        <div class=\"comment-header\">            <div class=\"asset-meta\"> <div class=\"vcard author\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;blog_id=1&amp;id=101399\">jdmba</a>        </div>				<div class=\"comment-date\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/2009/01/pediatric-dentist-sues-parents-over-negative-yelp-review.html#comment-10028000\"><abbr class=\"published\" title=\"2009-01-13T23:43:40-05:00\">January 13, 2009 11:43 PM</abbr></a></div>				<div class=\"comment-moderate\"><span><a href=\"javascript:moderateComment(10028000);\">Moderate</a> |</span><a href='javascript:void(0)' onClick=\"return moderate(this, 'http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/plugins/Moderate/moderate.cgi?__mode=flag&comment_id=10028000');\">Flag for review</a></div>            </div>        </div><!-- end comment header -->        <div class=\"comment-content\">            <p>If you are suing one (posters) it doesn't cost that much more (process serving, basically) to add more (Yelp).</p><p>While it is ridiculous to do so, it is also her only choice, so I don't blame her for the attempt.

The dentist is also a moron for thinking that they can sue a person for being upset by what they agreed to.</p><p>Happens every day of the year. There is no reason to sue someone about it though.</p><p>Dentists give you options, its your choice. Just don't bash the dentist after the fact. I am sure they also offer an option of an injection, topical or the laughing gas. Some people just don't want a needle.

Many dentists question their safety during a sales pitch to sell people the more expensive \"mercury free\" options, even though it's well established that the regular ones are just fine. If you want to pay more for those, it's a free country. But the regular ones are fine.</p><p>There is sometimes more mercury in local drinking water than a person would be exposed to with dental fillings.

Avoid her like a disease!</p><p>My son went there for two years. She treated two cavities plus the usual cleaning. She was fast, I mean really fast. I won't necessarily say that is a bad thing, but my son was light headed for several hours after the filling. So we decided to try another dentist after half a year.</p><p>I wish I had gone there earlier. First, the new dentist discovered seven cavities. All right all of those appeared during the last half a year. Second, he would never use the laughing gas on kids, which was the cause for my son's dizziness. To apply laughing gas is the easiest to the dentist. There is no waiting, no needles. But it is general anesthetic, not local. And general anesthetic harms a kid's nerve system. Heck, it harms mine too. Third, the filling Yvonne Wong used is metallic silver color. The new dentist would only use the newer, white color filling. Why does the color matter? Here is the part that made me really, really angry. The color tells the material being used. The metallic filling, called silver amalgams, has a small trace of mercury in it. The newer composite filling, while costing the dentist more, does not. In addition, it uses a newer technology to embed fluoride to clean the teeth for you.</p><p>I regret ever going to her office.</p><p>P.S. Just want to add one more thing. Dr Chui, who shares the same office with Yvonne Wong, is actually decent.</p><p>People thought this was:</p><p>Useful  (1)<br /></p></blockquote><p>Lets hope they dont sue me!</p>        </div>	<div class=\"reply\">	 <div class=\"reply-button\"><a title=\"Reply\" href=\"javascript:void(0);\" onclick=\"mtReplyCommentOnClick(10032588, 'closed_account')\">Reply</a></div>		<!-- if it's a top level category ' -->		    </div><!-- end reply- button -->    </div></div>        <!-- Display comment (top level parent) -->    </div>","","<div class=\"comments-content\">        <div class=\"comment\" id=\"comment-10033355\">    <div class=\"inner\">	 <div class=\"user-pic\">        <a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;amp;blog_id=1&amp;amp;id=213205\"><img        src=\"/css/images/default.gif\"        width=\"60\" height=\"60\" alt=\"user-pic\" /></a>    </div>        <div class=\"comment-header\">            <div class=\"asset-meta\"> <div class=\"vcard author\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;blog_id=1&amp;id=213205\">bobcatred</a>        </div>				<div class=\"comment-date\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/2009/01/pediatric-dentist-sues-parents-over-negative-yelp-review.html#comment-10033355\"><abbr class=\"published\" title=\"2009-01-14T04:50:53-05:00\">January 14, 2009  4:50 AM</abbr></a></div>				<div class=\"comment-moderate\"><span><a href=\"javascript:moderateComment(10033355);\">Moderate</a> |</span><a href='javascript:void(0)' onClick=\"return moderate(this, 'http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/plugins/Moderate/moderate.cgi?__mode=flag&comment_id=10033355');\">Flag for review</a></div>            </div>        </div><!-- end comment header -->        <div class=\"comment-content\">            <p>I'm surprised that the lawsuit was filed as libel, and not the more general defamation.

I have no clue what the laws are in their area, but defamation laws frequently have clause for \"damaging\" statements.</p><p>That aside, what dentist still uses amalgam fillings exclusively anymore? I haven't been to a dentist that used them in years. And how stupid do you have to be to not realize that your kid's going to be dizzy after being given a gas that's used as a numbing agent? If you were given a waiver for a freaking filling, maybe you should have read it beforehand, rather than waiting until after to throw a tantrum about it online.</p><p>This is what happens when stupid meets stupid.</p>        </div>	<div class=\"reply\">	 <div class=\"reply-button\"><a title=\"Reply\" href=\"javascript:void(0);\" onclick=\"mtReplyCommentOnClick(10033355, 'bobcatred')\">Reply</a></div>		<!-- if it's a top level category ' -->		    </div><!-- end reply- button -->    </div></div>        <!-- Display comment (top level parent) -->    </div>","","","<div class=\"comments-content\">        <div class=\"comment\" id=\"comment-10036639\">    <div class=\"inner\">	 <div class=\"user-pic\">        <a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;amp;blog_id=1&amp;amp;id=371261\"><img        src=\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-371261-100x100.png\"        width=\"60\" height=\"60\" alt=\"user-pic\" /></a>    </div>        <div class=\"comment-header\">            <div class=\"asset-meta\"> <div class=\"vcard author\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;blog_id=1&amp;id=371261\">hankrearden</a>        </div>				<div class=\"comment-date\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/2009/01/pediatric-dentist-sues-parents-over-negative-yelp-review.html#comment-10036639\"><abbr class=\"published\" title=\"2009-01-14T13:26:24-05:00\">January 14, 2009  1:26 PM</abbr></a></div>				<div class=\"comment-moderate\"><span><a href=\"javascript:moderateComment(10036639);\">Moderate</a> |</span><a href='javascript:void(0)' onClick=\"return moderate(this, 'http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/plugins/Moderate/moderate.cgi?__mode=flag&comment_id=10036639');\">Flag for review</a></div>            </div>        </div><!-- end comment header -->        <div class=\"comment-content\">            <p><p>Actually, for those of us who are physicians, dentists, etc., I think we should be more active in pursuing these things.</p><br /><p>There is a glut of \"get-rich-quick\" attorneys out there fueling the fires of malpractice litigation.

A single bad review - for any reason whatsoever - can overwhelm a lot of good customer experiences.  What it forces a small business to do is spend inordinate amount of time managing these reviews at the expense of managing a business.  But maybe it will all work itself out.

Most people who have posted their replies and opinions apparently love these articles and can't wait to jump on the bandwagon without first doing some fact checking.  If you read the REAL story, Dr. Wong is suing her patients for libel because her patients claimed that the dentist never told them about the mercury content in the fillings, when in fact the patients actually SIGNED the Informed Consent in their chart stating that the Dr. indeed had revealed the fact that the silver filling does contain mercury.  THAT IS LIBEL.  With that said, I think it's a horrible decision to pursue a lawsuit over this.  That's just a poor business decision.  Even if she gets a nice settlement or wins the lawsuit (it'll NEVER go to court), no amount of money can clean up the negative publicity she will suffer over this mess.  I think the sensible solution is to have the patients admit that they had lied on their review on Yelp, apologize, and have Dr. Wong drop the lawsuit.  This way the only people remaining upset would be her lawyer, boohoo.</p><p>By the way, big ups to \"Carey\" for living up to my expectations on how manipulative and irresponsible media is these days.  Did you not know about the facts or did you just choose to ignore them when you wrote this?</p>        </div>	<div class=\"reply\">	 <div class=\"reply-button\"><a title=\"Reply\" href=\"javascript:void(0);\" onclick=\"mtReplyCommentOnClick(10061806, 'Rob Lee')\">Reply</a></div>		<!-- if it's a top level category ' -->		    </div><!-- end reply- button -->    </div></div>        <!-- Display comment (top level parent) -->    </div>","<div class=\"comments-content\">        <div class=\"comment\" id=\"comment-10065003\">    <div class=\"inner\">	 <div class=\"user-pic\">        <a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;amp;blog_id=1&amp;amp;id=131536\"><img        src=\"http://consumerist.com/assets_c/userpics/userpic-131536-100x100.png\"        width=\"60\" height=\"60\" alt=\"user-pic\" /></a>    </div>        <div class=\"comment-header\">            <div class=\"asset-meta\"> <div class=\"vcard author\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;blog_id=1&amp;id=131536\">boxjockey68</a>        </div>				<div class=\"comment-date\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/2009/01/pediatric-dentist-sues-parents-over-negative-yelp-review.html#comment-10065003\"><abbr class=\"published\" title=\"2009-01-15T14:27:21-05:00\">January 15, 2009  2:27 PM</abbr></a></div>				<div class=\"comment-moderate\"><span><a href=\"javascript:moderateComment(10065003);\">Moderate</a> |</span><a href='javascript:void(0)' onClick=\"return moderate(this, 'http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/plugins/Moderate/moderate.cgi?__mode=flag&comment_id=10065003');\">Flag for review</a></div>            </div>        </div><!-- end comment header -->        <div class=\"comment-content\">            <p>well, the customer is not always right, but they do have the right to be unhappy and talk about it, like it or not that's one of our rights.
