    The absolute friendliest staff, facility ver clean and smelled nice, minimal wait time and…read morethoughtful gentle doctors did not make me feel rushed, ignorant, or unimportant. Dr. James, Dr V, and Dr. Buddy all took time to introduce themselves and explain their roles, common procedures and potential risks or adverse side effects. Wonderful wonderful experience.

    In 2021, they said my kids had some cavities and we talked through the process of how they would do…read morethe work to cap their teeth. I was game until the hygienist told me that if my kids couldn't sit still or keep their hands down, they had a restraint device sort of like a straight jacket they would use. I said "Or, we just try again another day since neither kid is complaining about sensitivity or pan and it's not an emergency". She disagreed and talked again about using a restraint device if necessary. My oldest lives on anxiety and I was not interested in subjecting him to this sort of trauma so I left for a second opinion.....and found a wonderful dentist who was so much better. He did fillings for my kids. Fast forward to 2023 and our dentist was let us know he really doesn't want to be a pediatric dentist and encouraged us to find one. So, we tried Sweet Tooth again. On the first cleaning and exam, they brought up their notes from 2021 and wanted to cap my little guy's teeth. I told them, he had 5 fillings done with the other dentist. The dentist straight up disagreed with me and said no he didn't. I asked him to check my kid's dental records. He said that wouldn't make a difference - my son had no fillings. I told him I sat there with him and watched each of them happen. He still disagreed. I left, got his dental records from the previous office (indeed, you can see all 5 of the fillings) and then drove 3 hours to Colorado Springs the next day to see a new pediatric dentist. The CO Springs dentist said 0 cavities and come back in 6 months for a cleaning and check up. We will never step foot in Sweet Tooth Alamosa again. I've never met a health care provider who was not interested in the history of their patient as it pertains to their office. And yes, undeniably, my son has 5 fillings.

    I had the same experience as the other reviewer. I was overcharged by several hundred dollars…read more Additionally the practice insisted in me signing a release form for a procedure I was not getting. Shady? Absolutely. They charge me if I cancel the appointment within 24 hours of the date, but they cancelled my appointment the night before I was scheduled to come in without any consideration for me and what I had planned and arranged including having to take time off from work. Shady? Absolutely. I'm considering filing a Complaint with the Colorado Dental Board Discipline and Enforcement.

    Blanca Peak Dental Center (Dr. Sarah Nazeri) recently subjected me to several deceptive,…read moreincompetent and even unethical acts. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM. Details: (1) I went there for a severe toothache and they recommended a root canal but said the best they could do was in a month. (2) they lied about their schedule being packed, when in fact the reason I had to wait a month, in pain, was that Dr. Nazeri was about to go on vacation, which I only found out later; So she was willing to leave me in pain so she could get my business despite her vacation. That is a blatant violation of medical ethics. They should have referred me to another provider or expanded their hours to get me in quickly. (3) they lied to get me to have the specialized pre-root-canal x-ray (CBCT) right then at the initial exam -- they said it would save me a separate appointment (an hour's cab ride for me) because it could not be done on the same day as the root canal itself, which turned out to be false (as I discovered at another provider). They apparently wanted to get the $170 x-ray fee even if I went elsewhere for a sooner root-canal. (4) they said they would mail me the x-ray in time to use with another specialist. It's too big a file for email, and they wouldn't use Dropbox or similar service. But it arrived a week later, over 3 days after my appointment with a different provider, indicating that they delayed mailing it out, despite the promise, a reminder phone call from, me and assurance that it would be mailed in time. As a result I had to pay $167 for the same x-ray from another specialist. (5) I disputed the credit card charge mainly on the basis that the late mailing rendered their $170 x-ray useless to me. To my surprise and shock, Blanca Peak fought it! So I explained the whole story to the CC company, including the multiple lies, in writing, and they sustained my dispute in less than 24 hours! My usual policy is that if the merchant makes good on a problem (which most do), I do not write a negative review. In this case, they did not voluntarily make good, but fought the cc dispute.
