I had been a loyal patient at Southridge Dental for over seven years! Then during one visit DDS…read moreSimper made a mistake, which is only human. He broke a very visible crown, while working on another tooth. The accident I can understand, even if I thought he was spending far too little time with each patient. His actions next are what I find deplorable! DDS Simper then dropped me as a patient, not because of something I did, or some unpaid bill. He dropped me as a patient because of something that he did, and he did not want to fix! Which is why I was forced to take legal action against DDS Simper, and Southridge Dental. Be warned loyalty to this dentists will not be returned, if it inconveniences him; BEWARE!!!

I was once a dental assistant myself before having gotten cancer and gastroparesis which paused my…read moredental career and destroyed my mouth. I went to Dr Safford in desperate need looking for help. I was in so much pain and shame. I cried every night in pain super glueing whatever teeth I could into my mouth crying upset I was probably giving myself cancer again. I was so depressed. I had already lost my oldest son 5 years earlier to an unsolved murder. I had been trying to fix my teeth then but life happened and this was the first time I was able to get back for help. At first they seem to care and want to help. Made the best promises to take care of me and quoted me almost $23k to fix my mouth with partials. I thought I would be able to fund my mouth pretty quickly when I first visited the office or I wouldn't have even gone in. However long story short it ended up taking longer then expected. At first we got denied loans because we had just bought a house. We were also denied care credit until we got a co-signer. In the mean time from me not getting the money fast enough they went from a very caring office to a very not caring office overnight. They would cancel my appointments before I could even though I would call to cancel it over a week and a half before and no one could find my appointment to cancel it cause the office manager did it herself when she thought I couldn't pay fast enough. I ended up getting some carecredit with a co-signer up to $6k to start some work approved. So I did end up getting a appointment with Dr Safford to start in my mandibular anterior teeth at the end of it. I was still working on funding the rest of procedures I would need. They assured me they would take the best care of me. I had my doubts after the way I was starting to have been treated. If you look at the photos the first time Dr Safford fixed my teeth the colors did not match and there was a huge hole in the composite material on the buccal surface of the tooth that you could easily stick an explorer into. The tooth was very rough in many surfaces, and my bite was way off as they never once checked it with articulating paper I did not find this to be acceptable work nor work worth $23k. So I had to reach back out to Dr Safford staff to get an appointment for her to fix it. They were not happy about this. When I left Dr Safford said if I wasn't happy she would fix it later. I feel like she rushed her work and she knew it or she wouldn't have made the comment. Even after fixing it...the color match was better but it wasn't really matching or very pretty. It's now been fixed properly by another dentist in Costa Rica. She sat me up in the chair after 2 hours or having to fix her previous work and tells me I need to go home and really think about it she's the dentist for me because she felt like their had been a breakdown in Dr patient communication and trust. She felt like our last appointment had went very well and she didn't agree with me needing her to fix her work. I hold her why I felt the way I did. How I was very hurt they were so wonderful when they thought I had money only to be so horrible when they thought I didn't have it. They the promised me the best care when I found some money, yet did not deliver, and then told me I needed to go home and think. No I don't need to think. For my health and mental health we agree to disagree. I let her know at that time I was gifted the entire loan amount plus $24k in cash and that I need that care credit refunded because I would be paying in cash from now on. That's when she unhappily had me sent to the front to check out. That's when I found out they went ahead and over charged my care credit for $6 at once even though I didn't have that much work done yet. They had to refund me $6k and I turned around and paid them $197.40 that owed out of pocket. I asked them twice for my dental records to be emailed to me because I was going to be looking at Mexico or Costa Rica for dental care since I had been gifted cash and I wanted to see if I could find better for my health and mental health. I walked away. I found a great dental tourist company in Costa Rica and I got my dream treatment plan with full mouth restoration with implants and crown. 6 implants, 18 crowns, 5 root canals, iv sedation, flights, hotels, sight seeing..two trips..all expenses paid...$20k in Costa Rica. $4k under budget and I got the best care in the world. Lifetime warranty on my dental work if I return once a year to Costa Rica for a cleaning. It's not expensive to travel. Amazing care! Beautiful country! I'm so happy that Southridge Dental was mean to me. However the same day I'm getting implants in Costa Rica Southridge is still sending me certified harassment letters talking about how they won't accept me as a patient anymore because I called them out on their sloppy work. . I absolutely would NOT recommend Southridge Dental nor Dr Safford.

On call for er this last weekend. Called his cell several times. He never returned phone call…read more Ended up having to find and er dentist on internet - in Yakima - who took care of the er. Sent an e-mail to his office and the next morning received a phone call saying he called and left a message with our daughter's dad. My daughter received a phone call stating he called back but couldn't confirm the correct number. All sounds like someone who just didn't want to work on a sunny day off. He lost a patient and I nor my family will send any one his way!

From the owner: When I set out to build my dental practice, I wanted to create a practice where I, as a dentist,…read morewould want to go. As you can imagine, I would hold this dentist to some pretty high standards. I would want my dentist to know me personally, not just another patient. I would want the feeling I was visiting a friend. I would expect this person to be gentle and caring. I would expect my dentist to have genuine concern for my comfort during my visit. Next, I would want someone who respected my time and kept on schedule. I know things can happen, but I would expect to be seated as close to my scheduled time as possible. I think it would be nice in case of emergency, I could get in the the same day. And finally, I would expect the best treatment possible. I would seek out the most highly trained, up to date person to deliver the best dentistry possible. With this in mind, this is what I have set out to create. I want to create a dental practice where I would want to be a patient!

As you can see for yourself, the reviews for West Pasco Family Dental progressively have gotten…read moreworse. I highly recommend NOT attending this office. They did a filling (which ended up cracking shortly after). In doing that it did not fit well and pushed the tooth in front of it so tight that I couldn't floss. Over time I had to keep going in to get it adjusted so I could floss. Although this is fixing the work I've already paid for, they'd charge my insurance at times. Once it was loose enough to floss, that resulted in my implant next to it having issues, so now I have to pay $1600 for something THEY DID! I even paid some out of pocket expenses and when I checked my bill, they were charging insurance stating that I had a filling but of course insurance wouldn't pay it because that's an implant and no tooth is there. I should not be charged, nor should my insurance, for work I've paid for already and they need to fix. When I asked they'd say, well there isn't an expense to you. Um yes there is! I still pay for that insurance and because they did that I didn't have enough left in the year to cover a new implant crown I have to pay for....again....because they screwed it up! The front office and dentist both told me I should receive a refund for $175. Ofe then tells me that refund went to other charges on my account. Yeah the dishonest filling you charged me for! Their communication is horrible, professionalism is lacking, and ALWAYS check your statements with this place. I have yet to receive my refund and don't anticipate it will happen. I'm highly debating taking this to court for the simple purpose that it's wrong and they need to know they can't do this to people. The dentist and hygienist turnover rate is high here. Moving to corporate was not a good choice for this place. Do not go to West Pasco Family Dental!

Had a cavity filled and Dr hit a nerve. I complained for weeks and nothing was done. I told them my…read morebite was off. The filling was grainy and I could not bite down on left side. Finally switched to a new dental office and by the time they saw me, I needed a root canal because of the filling done by West Pasco Family Dental. Yet, they still continue to send me bills. And I have yet to hear back from Dr. Nielsen who did a poor job on my filling. They will make an appointment for you, then not notify you that they cannot see you on that date because they so not have a hygienist scheduled. so they try to push your appointment months out regardless of how much pain you're in.
