Ok so while looking up Dr Hyer, I found this thread:

(I hate not doing the archiving myself but I'm having trouble getting the archive site to load, I think I broke it. Could somebody please archive this for me?)
This person's experience with Hyer, in comparison with Kevin's, are like night and day. Hyer was super involved with them, they met most of the staff at the clinic, they talk about making post-op appointments... to my knowledge, Kevin has not tweeted about one single post-op appointment.
Now, I do have a vague memory of him being driven somewhere in a car quite early on in this thread, and he had to use a donut cushion... it might have been a post-op appt? But it could have been something else. Either way, Kevin should have been scheduling an appointment to go see her. Maybe he or Penny were reluctant to pay for many extra post-op appointments and eventually after the hemming and hawing, the doctor just said something like "look if you decide you don't want to come in now, come back in six months".
And @BSCollateral is right, we *are* relying on Kevin's recounting of the facts...
Something still strikes me as fishy about the whole situation, though. That doctor must feel confident about her un-sue-ability if she's not even telling Kev to see a regular doctor.
Edit:
Calm your farm, a doctor or surgeon who isn't an SRS specialist can still have a cursory look at weird rotting cavern and say "okay yeah you need to go book in an appointment with the person who did this, STAT, and do not take no for an answer, and in the meantime here are some antibiotics/anti-fungal cream/whatever ." Which
is what Kevin apparently needed to hear, because apparently he just settles for emailing the surgeon directly and is too shy to push his way into her actual schedule.
