I rarely leave negative reviews, especially because my first appointment with Dr. Ledger was…read moreexcellent. He was warm, friendly, and made me feel completely at ease. Going into my first filling, I actually felt confident because of how positive that initial experience had been. Unfortunately, today's appointment was the complete opposite. From the moment he walked into the room, he was cold and dismissive. I tried to joke that I wasn't ready yet, hoping to ease my nerves, but he didn't respond. I reminded him that I get very shaky from local anesthetic, and instead of offering reassurance, he said, "You've had a lot of dental work. This is all we've got. You'll be fine." During the procedure, he placed and tightened the thin metal matrix band around my tooth. As soon as it was tightened, I could clearly feel it digging and stabbing into my gum line. This wasn't pressure--it was sharp, localized pain exactly where the band was pressing against my gum. I told him I was in pain, but he argued that it was "just pressure." No, it was pain. I tried to explain that it genuinely hurt, but he became irritated and told me there was nothing he could do about it. The pain continued the entire time the band was in place. At that point, I stopped saying anything and just lay there with tears running down into my ears while he continued working. His incredibly kind assistant quietly wiped away my tears and showed me more compassion than the person performing the procedure. After the anesthetic wore off, my gum remained sore, and I now have a cut along my gum line. After the procedure, instead of apologizing or acknowledging that I had a painful experience, Dr. Ledger asked if I had generalized anxiety. I told him no. It felt like he was trying to blame my reaction on anxiety instead of accepting that I had repeatedly told him I was in pain. I told him I would never come back. His response was, "Really? Wow." He then walked out of the room repeating, "Wooow." I want to be very clear that every other member of the office was wonderful. The front desk staff, hygienist, and assistant were all kind, compassionate, and professional. They deserve five stars. I genuinely feel bad that they have to work with what can only be described as a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde personality. I know Dr. Ledger personally responds to his reviews, so I'll say this directly: Do better. Patients shouldn't have to argue with their dentist about whether they're feeling pain. If a patient tells you something hurts, listen. Even if there's no alternative, empathy costs nothing. No one should leave a routine filling appointment in tears, be left with an injured gum, and then have their experience dismissed as anxiety. I told you from the very beginning that I was uncomfortable and afraid of dental work. Instead of helping me through that, you made one of my biggest fears come true.

We Do Not Recommend Bright Now! Dentist of Springhill!…read more I had a very frustrating visit to Bright Now! Dental & Orthodontics in Spring Hill. From the moment I walked in, the staff seemed unorganized and unprofessional. I had an appointment scheduled that they couldn't find even though I showed them the confirmation email and text reminder, but I still had to wait for over 30 minutes past my appointment time before being seen. The receptionists weren't very friendly or welcoming either. She was extremely distracted by the music videos on her phone and facebook. When I finally got in, the experience just got worse. The office was dirty, and it didn't look like it had been cleaned properly in a while. The waiting area had trash on the floor, and the examination rooms didn't seem much better. On top of that, the dental tools they used looked dirty, crusty and unsterilized, which made me feel uncomfortable and concerned about hygiene. The dentist didn't take the time to explain the procedures clearly or listen to my concerns and was just taking on $$$ for what they wanted to. It felt rushed, like they just wanted to get through the appointment as quickly as possible. The office also smelt moldy and felt really stale and uncomfortable, which just added to the negative experience. To make matters worse, I was way overcharged for services I didn't even receive. After calling 12 times and leaving voice mails over a month when I finally reached someone in the office to ask for a refund, they refused to take responsibility and completely brushed off my concerns. I tried speaking to the manager, but she didn't seem to care at all and I was told someone would call me back. It's incredibly frustrating to be treated like this, especially when they are in charge of your health and money. They also tried to upsell unnecessary treatments and were very pushy about it. I didn't feel like my health and well-being were the priority here, just the bottom line. I won't be returning and would definitely recommend finding a different dental practice in the area. If the office was as dirty the day I was there, how clean is the tools they are using in your mouth to drill in your bones and teeth??

1) I was told by the staff that my insurance would only pay for half a cleaning at a time, and so I…read morehad to schedule two separate appointments to get my teeth cleaned. My copay was close to 100 dollars each time. When I called my insurance company about it and they told me that this was untrue; they pay for a complete cleaning at one time. 2) Then I received a bill in the mail for $290 with a letter saying my insurance refused to cover this particular bill. I called my insurance company and they said they never received such a bill. 3) I had a temporary crown put on while I waited for a permanent crown to be made. When the assistant tried to remove the temporary she couldn't get it off so went and got a stronger instrument. Using that managed to get the temporary off and also to break the remaining bit of tooth that was supposed to support the permanent crown. The dentist installed the crown anyway, but it is very loose and moves easily causing my gums to be irritated and even bleed sometime. That was never addressed. It's really hard to eat anything this way! 4) Xrays revealed a cavity under an old crown, but the dentist left it, instead scheduling several other procedures including another 2-part cleaning (so it was 2, or actually 4 cleaning appointments in one year). In the mean time the cavity became infected and when I called the office about it, I was directed to go the the webpage and request an emergence appointment. I did and was told that they would to call me and schedule an appointment. I waited two weeks, but never heard back. This afternoon I called another dentist who has me scheduled for an emergency visit tomorrow morning. I would not recommend Bright Now Dental.

The front desk ladies were personable and kind. Dr Wade squeezed me in between his afternoon patients to try to give me a temporary front tooth for my Easter celebration. None of the dentists I previously called would try to give me something temporary to get me through the holidays. His helper, Sara, was so wonderful too. She took my impression and actually made me a beautiful new front tooth. She carefully ground it off so I wouldn't knock it off with my teeth. Sara was so patient and so kind! This is a wonderful practice. I will definitely be using them for my implant and all my dental needs.

I was wondering why one of the worst orthodontist in town had nearly 100 positive reviews and all the best orthodontists in town had less than 10? I found out later that the one that seems to have no ethics is part of "patientrewardhub.com" to buy reviews. (They tell customers to log into their website and get points for each 4 or 5 star review) this is appealing to kids as they want to get that shopping gift card for a shopping spree." I find this very unethical! I also must mention that Dr. Fontain IS part of the Florida Dental Association, very few are around this area, this is more evidence that Dr. Fontaine knows his trade! I was not paid for this review, and I feel when you decide to choose a orthodontist you should strongly consider Dr. Fontaine.

This office seriously should host a seminar on Customer Service because they truly make it so their patients don't want to leave.

That says a lot coming from a kid, but truth be told, I can't wait to take him! We were transferring from a practice out of state, and I truly appreciate the time that the staff spent with us making sure that all of our questions were answered, and making us feel right at home. They welcomed us to the Suncoast family with open arms. Now for the best part...their office!!! When I say that their office is paradise for kids and "kids at heart", I mean exactly that! They have the coolest waiting room ever that's filled with the wonderful aroma of fresh baked cookies. They also host exciting events for patients and their families, as well as cool monthly contests for the patients. Please go visit Dr. Sheridan at Suncoast Braces for all of your Orthodontic needs.

My husband and I both work in Tampa, and getting off is difficult, but it's about an hour drive there from work, so you have to leave extra early to make it to the last appointment, and going in late wouldn't be so bad if you could have an 8am appointment, but that's not an option. Had I known this before she got her braces on, I probably would've gone somewhere else. Dr is good, staff is good, just the hours are hard.
