¶ 5 as "loss of hearing, loss of feeling and movement in fact [sic] and jaw, quivering of jaw and pain."
Facts adduced by the United States and undisputed by Espinoza flesh out the barebones allegations of the Complaint. Dr. Bruce Bloom,[4] an expert retained by Espinoza, testified medical records indicated the onset of TMJ syndrome was in 1979 after the surgical procedure (and it was probably caused by the procedure). Records of Dr. George Goldstein (an eye, ear, nose and throat physician not employed by the United States) reflect visits to him by Espinoza beginning in December 1980, with a diagnosis of TMJ syndrome[5] and the prescription of a "TMJ regimen" at that time. Dr. Debra Klein (a dentist also not associated *209 with the United States) examined"first knew or should have known" of the claim on March 27, 1985. On February 13, 1987 an amended claim was submitted, changing the "first knew or should have known" date to September 11, 1984.
After the government's denial of the administrative claim Espinoza filed the current action. It was initially assigned to the calendar of this Court's colleague Judge James Holderman (that was in accordance with this District Court's regular system of random assignment, because the action had not been specified as the refiling of a previously dismissed case). When that status as a refiled case was identified, the case was reassigned to this Court's calendar in accordance with this District Court's General Rule 2.21(d)(2).
