I have a friend who had a dentist in a rather low quality complex work on her teeth, and perform a root canal. She experienced a lot of pain from it, and when she went to another dentist the dentist said the previous dentist did a poor job and he was willing to write a note attesting to it. We want to simply have the charge (still unpaid) of $1100 returned. Now here's the problems: -She just moved so she cannot go back to that dentist, I have to act as a representative. -She currently has no dental insurance to see another dentist and get a note. -The case is over a year old, how can we find out the statute of limitations in the state of Hawaii on this? We don't want to sue and add to the malpractice epidemic, but if we have to we will. We just want the charge taken off of her total debt. What can we do?
