Unfortunately, this case and many others show the true “skill” level of the jail’s medical staff. Total incompetence.
Dr. Adler is a very negligent doctor, he is the head doctor with Ventura County Jail regretfully Houzz negligence has crippled and obviously led to the untimely demise. I have a personal experience with Dr. Adler sometime ago and due to his neglect I suffered horribly but because of his personal agenda and feelings towards me he allowed his professional standards to be compromised as such no one will ensure him except for the County of Ventura he has had multiple medical malpractice lawsuits filed against him and still they allow this man to treat or in this case failed to treat affectively or in a timely manner which led to someone dying where does liability begin and end?
