Don't Fall for the "Luxury" Label: This Dentist Is a Rip-Off…read more Think you're booking a high-end dental experience? Think again. I spent more time waiting in an empty office than receiving care, with a hygienist who managed to make a simple routine cleaning a frustrating ordeal. My second visit was a repeat of the first, but with an added $122 surprise charge, a month later, for unnecessary x-rays. Their only explanation? "You signed the form." Decpite our verbal conversation that I only wanted services covered by my insurance. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere--this place is a textbook example of dental deception.

I went to this practice one time after we moved to the area from South Tampa. They immediately…read moretried to tell me that I needed a deep cleaning under anesthesia that would require two sessions and that I needed to be seen by a periodontist all of which would cost around $5000 or $6000. I instead went back to my original dentist in South Tampa who confirmed that, while I did need a cleaning, I did not need to be seen by a periodontist nor did I need a cleaning under anesthesia. My wife recently went to the practice, which apparently has all new physicians and hygienists because the other ones left, and was told that she had two cavities and needed them addressed immediately which she did not do because she has never had a cavity in her 39 years. This place is a scam and all they do is push for you to get unnecessary treatment so they can overcharge. I would highly suggest not going to this practice.

RUN away from these thieves! This should be a 0 rating. They say they accept DeltaCare USA, but…read morethey do not honor their contracted fee schedules. This is unethical and fraudulent. I am in utter disbelief over my recent estimate. Not one charge was what my insurance fee schedule co-payment is. Everything was price gouging and treatment not necessary. PLEASE go elsewhere there are still ethical caring dentists around who honor contracted insurance plans. If you don't like the contracted allowances then don't accept the insurance it's that simple but up charging and adding fraudulent services is unethical and you should be held responsible. They should be ashamed of themselves, they all took a doctors oath. All they care about is money not their patients well being. KARMA!!!

My main dentist…read morewas not available to take on an emergency so I started to do some research for a good, reliable and trustworthy dentist who had a great bedside manner. Hard to find right? Well, I found one!. I called up Lumina Dental and got the Brandon office, which is the main office. Really nice people. got an immediate appointment at the Lutz facility as it was the closest to my home. When I got to the facility I was seen right away and given a very thorough examination with xrays. I met the dentist, Dr. Rocio Barocio-Rasmussen. She was very knowledgeable and explained everything to me of what I had going on. Not only a cracked tooth but a cavity as well. Uck! I thought I was going to have a heart attack. So, with everything explained, I had no choice to get the crown that was needed and the cavity filled, killing two birds with one stone (no punt intended). I must say that I felt NO PAIN OR NEEDLE! She was a sweetheart and always asked me if I was ok. I was in the chair for about 5 hours, but I didn't care. I wanted it done right and with no pain. She was very meticulous and took her time to make sure everything was done right. I can't thank this dentist enough! Keep in mind the only reason why I am giving a 4 star and not a 5 is not because of the dentist. Its the FACULTY at the center! They kept pushing the sales pitch of getting me to have more work done, even as I was in the middle of the procedure! Not once, but at least 3 times even after telling them to not ask me again or think they can pressure me to get the work done and spend money I don't have. In addition, right now it was not necessary and it could wait. They screwed up the financial situation and had to physically go into the office to sign a paper for a refund to be transferred to the financial situation for a partial refund. It was ridiculous!! I know that if there is an emergency i will definitely go back to this dentist, but there better not be another incident with the bookkeeping or the sales pitches. I am pretty straight forward and don't hold back when really upset. So you can definitely trust this review!

I know what you're thinking: 5 stars for a dentist? Really? Come on. Honestly, though, since I…read morestarted coming to this dentist's office I don't dread my appointments. The entire staff is wonderful. Somehow my hygienist remembers past conversations and always follows up on things we talked about at my appointment six months before. My appointments usually begin right on time and if I do have to wait, it's never for very long. I usually only see the dentist for a few minutes after my cleanings, but she's always very nice and professional. Having the same hygienist every time is so much better for me than just showing up and having someone new. We've got the hands-and-tools-in-your-mouth-but-we're-still-having-a-conversation language down pat. It makes the time go by much faster and beats the hell out of awkwardly staring at the overhead light for 45 minutes. It may sound silly, but it's a great thing having a dentist's office that doesn't give you anticipatory heart palpitations. This is a wonderful, if small, facility with great people. It's always a pleasure working with them.
