PHUKET: A German dentist who has been pulling teeth and making fillings on Phuket is now a wanted man following a complaint from a patient.
A Dutchman went to Phuket's Damrungtam office at Phuket Provincial Hall in Phuket City after a dispute with the dentist.
The Dutchman told the complaints office that he'd been treated by the German dentist at a clinic in Chalong, in southern Phuket.
He said he had requested some false teeth. He paid 20,000 baht at first and then later another 14,000 baht.
The Dutchman said the false teeth did not fit properly and he returned to visit the German dentist a third and a fourth time.
On the fourth visit, he said, the dentist became frustrated and threw the false teeth on the floor, the Dutchman said.
However, the dentist neglected to refund the cash, he added. Working as a dentist is an occupation reserved for Thais so the German dentist is now on a ''wanted'' list.
Papers officially allowing the police to pursue the German dentist are now with Phuket Governor Maitree Intusut.
