This morning I took my 6-year-old daughter to have a supernumerary tooth extraction done under gas…read moreanesthesia with Dr. Dharma Byron. After charging us in advance for the procedure, we entered the treatment room, where I was informed that parents could not stay with their child during the procedure, and I was taken to the reception area. Less than 20 minutes later, Dr. Byron came out to tell me she would not proceed with the treatment because my daughter was crying and she did not want to "traumatize her." I went to where my daughter was, where they were attempting to administer the gas anesthesia. She was crying and trembling. Dr. Byron informed me that the procedure fee would be waived, but we would still be charged $150 for the anesthesia, despite it not taking effect and never being fully administered since the process was stopped. My question is: what experienced doctor working with children doesn't realize that a young child might cry in this situation, especially if separated from her mother? Why proceed with administering anesthesia if the child is crying and there's a chance the procedure cannot be completed? My experience with Dr. Byron was completely lacking in compassion and professionalism, especially where a minor is concerned. Perhaps other parents have had positive experiences, but mine was a disaster. The only thing she handled well was the initial payment. However, if you're looking for a healthcare professional who will treat your child with care and show respect to the family, I DO NOT recommend Dr. Dharma Byron. She still has a lot to learn in that regard.

TL/DR Disclosure, I got tackled playing football when I was about 7 or 8 and dental repairs in the 80's were not as advanced as they are now. After more sore throats than a healthy adult should be getting, my primary doctor recommended I see a oral surgeon to find the cause. So after almost 30+ years, it ended up that I needed to come to Dr. Navarro to help remodel my smile. I came to Dr Navarro for the convenience that his office is close to my job, and I like to keep my PTO for fun stuff be it attending a rave or an extra cash out check at the end of the year. During my first visit, I had a full dental exam including a 3D xray of my mouth. He confirmed that one tooth would have to be removed and that I'll need a bone graft before looking handsome again. Based on the complexity of the procedure he gave me prescriptions for antibiotic, a medicated mouthwash and pain pills to start the day before the procedure. The operating room wasn't closed in, but had a view of the Miami Lakes cow field. Office music was poppy instead of "cortavena" sappy. The pain was as expected from anything dental, but his staff was pleasant and attentive during the procedure and in followup. I would definitely recommend him.

After going through the longest and most uncomfortable x-ray process I was in the dental chair for 40 mins before the dentist came by and said he was sorry and he'd be right there. Thanks for saying so at least, but at the 1 hr 45 min mark we may as well not even try to be courteous. All said and done, the doc left again at one point for another ten minutes. Total time since arriving for my appointment time, 2hrs 45min. For a basic perio consultation.

She tried to make me feel as though the situation was my fault because of my employer's dental plan, which is perfectly reasonable in my opinion. Her manners were unacceptable; she spoke to me dismissively and stated that I could "do whatever I wanted," while implying I should feel fortunate that I didn't require additional treatment.

I told them I wanted to help my mother but didn't give them any details. They directed me to get the 7 chakra candles and crystals that were prepared with reiki by Armando. He instructed me how they should be used and it worked. My mother meditated with the candles and crystals on numerous occasions and not only did all her medical evaluations come back negative she's healthier than she's been in a long time. I feel that she is better not only because she has had a positive attitude and I gave her those candles with love but also because of how they were prepared.

I ended up finding Paty through Yelp and reached out to her for an appointment. After filling out a quick questionnaire, she gave a me a call and we discussed all the aspects in my life that have been causing me despair. From the moment we spoke a calm came over me. Some people have that effect and Paty is definitely one of them. I felt like she understood me immediately. I then set-up a face to face meeting at her office. Our first session she explained to me all about chakras and energy and how everything around me can affect that, including food, people, and my thoughts. We delved deeper into the issues I had and she gave me a lot of recommendations. We then moved on to the Reiki part of the session. I went into it not knowing what to expect or what to believe and I left there feeling like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders. I felt balance. Which is what I have been after for a long time. Some info: - The session lasted about an hour 1/2. I think they are usually an hour but they could run a little longer depending on the client. - Her office is located in Pinecrest, where she can meet with you on certain days. She has a calendar online where you can set that up. - Paty is a very spiritual person. It doesn't mean you need to religious or super spiritual but I do think you need to be open to her and to the process in order to have a good session. - $ - I know people are always concerned with money. Once you reach out to Paty and speak with her, she will recommend a time frame to work with you and provide you with package options. She was so kind and understanding and able to work with me. I will say this - it was well worth it and I have only done one session. I am looking forward to my next session with Paty.
