Reason # 6

Now this Florida story has botched written all over it – from start to finish..  It starts with an insecure man seeking ‘underground’ penile injections from an unlicensed person for penis enlargement.. and from there, it only goes downhill..

From bad to worse..

After being deformed and defrauded by a scam artist named Nery Gonzalez who offered illegal, and dangerous ‘penile enhancement treatments’, the bargain-seeking Florida resident stumbled into the offices of another incompetent provider,Dr. Mark Schreiber, a plastic surgeon who lost his license several years ago after several botched plastic surgeries following initial investigations in the deaths of two of his patients.

Dr. Mark Schreiber – multiple patient deaths, license revoked, but had a nice website

After the death of the second patient (also a penis enlargement case) in 2002, Florida revoked Dr. Schreiber’s license.  In 2008, he went to prison for practicing medicine (and operating on patients) without a license.

In the most recent case, the victim is now deformed, and unable to perform sexually due to his disfigurement.
