The Surgery Is N200K In My Centre – Dentist Questions Jarvis For Opening N30m GoFundMe

A Nigerian dentist has called out Tiktoker, Jarvis for creating a N30m GoFundMe page.

Recall that the TikToker had created the account to raise money for her mouth tumor which requires urgent medical attention.

Reacting, a dentist identified as @Dentalgiorgio on X argued that the amount requested for the surgery is outrageous, rather, it costs less than 1% of the required donation to get the surgery done at his centre.

“Not to be a spoiler, but this so called surgery costs about 200k in my centre, adding tests, biopsy, admission charges and feeding, it’s not up to 500k talk less of a million. This is a detty December fundraising. That’s all I can say,” he wrote while quoting the video.

Corroborating the claim, another user identified as @Phatill affirmed that it cost twice as much as the dentist stated to get the tumor surgery done at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, LASUTH.

“Exactly #405,000 at LASUTH this time last year. Social media is a hard drug,” she added.
