After news broke that patients of Dr. Wayne Scott Harrington's dental practice may have been exposed to HIV and two types of hepatitis, thousands of patients across the state were urged to get tested. It's a medical scare that's left many wondering how this could have happened, and how to keep it from happening again.

Church Street Health Management's Small Smiles Dental Clinics–Multiple Oklahoma Lawsuits- Megann Scott, DDS and Monica Switzer, DDS Defendants in at Least Three
| February 2010 Suit: | February 2011 Suit: No. CJ-2011-921 Oklahoma County |
| MONICA DEAUN SWITZER, D.D.S.; | MONICA SWITZER, D.D.S. |
The list above reflects even the part time dentists. Good! You just can't play with trash without getting dirty, can you?
In the first case above, CJ-2010-1632, Douglas Durst, DDS has been removed without prejudice, at the request of the plaintiff in fact. However, as of today, Dr. Douglas Durst remains on the case filed in February 2011.
There have been two other Medical Malpractice lawsuits naming Dr. Mathew A. Berg in Oklahoma- CJ-2009-10685 with Charles Goodwin, DDS and CJ-2009-01390 in connection with Dr. Paul Esau and New Smiles, PLLC. I think this makes Dr. Mathew Arnold Berg the wining Small Smiles dentists with 4.

Church Street Health Management–From Arcapita's Website
I know I'm not the only one to notice, nobody says they "own" the clinics anymore.
I've made a complete copy of their blog accessdentistry.blogspot.com. There is not one word there that says anyone owns any clinic. Everyone is always a "lead dentist". Well, until it comes to the income, then FORBA wants to claim that, or the lawsuits, then those lead dentists suddenly become owners. Cracks me up sometimes.
Even in the local news video they posted, no own is introduced as "owner" of the Small Smiles clinic here in "fill in the name of the city".
All these Small Smiles dental clinics are either "affiliated with" or "associated with" Arcapita or Church Street Health Management, aka FORBA.
I'm sure they all hate the fact those initial press releases when Arcapita "purchased" these clinics were wiped off the web, sorry guys.
I get what they are thinking, they don't want their name on documents like this.
As you can see, and everyone working for Small Smiles and Church Street Health Management should take note of, everyone will be named in lawsuits.
The cost of hiring an law firm to initially take the case will be very expensive. Responsible or not, you've been named in a lawsuit. Everything for you changes at that point. And I mean everything!
Think your family won't be effected, wrong. Think your kids won't be effected? Wrong.
Try going out on your own with a pending lawsuit hanging over your head. Try doing much of anything with this kind of lawsuit hanging over your head.
I hope everyone is looking over what kind of documents you've signed.
Church Street Health Management (CSHM) is not going to protect you from the above. They are hanging you out to dry, in the end, you will be in this all alone.
Everyone will need their own attorney. Don't be stupid and think FORBA aka Church Street Health Management (CSMH) and their vast number of law firms and attorneys are going to protect you. Look out for yourself.
If you work for Small Smiles and Church Street Health Management, I would think you can expect to see your name on one of these someday in the future.
For those at other dental mills, be taking notes.
Boo! Run!
