Dr. Samuel Dwight Lyons, MD

Dr Dwight Lyons experimented on me while doing what should have been a simple lumpectomy. While I was under general anesthesia he inserted a plastic screen without my permission or disclosure. He lied twice to me about adding “ architecture” that I felt slipping in my breast tissue. The plastic he inserted blocked mammograms, ultrasounds and cat scans. Only a breast MRI revealed what he did and a malignant tumor behind the plastic screen. I required a full mastectomy to remove that mess from my breast at another hospital. He bragged to his staff that he made my breast perkier. I thought he was referring to a large amount of painful fluid I made him remove not that he was playing at being a plastic surgeon. I am relieved to discover recently that he lost hospital privileges at Maui Memorial Hospital and no longer advertises breast surgery. I hope he is no longer harming other women. If you received breast cancer surgery with him I suggest you receive an MRI to determine if he experimented with you. I have MRI images and pathology pictures of the dangerous mess he made.

I decided to give this guy another chance and I regret it. After having my appointment rescheduled multiple times I finally got there but never saw the doctor. I got a nurse who wasn’t knowledgeable about my situation instead. They didn’t bother to read my file at any point before my visit or even during. You can imagine the frustration of explaining 13 years of medical history to someone who is obviously too busy to show up himself. The nurse that was suppose to be helping me was suggesting pointless procedure that I had already done. I think they just to charge my insurance company and don’t care. Maui is very limited on doctors and I would get multiple opinions before choosing any of them here. Choose this guy at your own risk.
