Went for X-ray and exam. He performed very limited visual inspection of teeth and mostly relied on x-ray to diagnose. I have serious issues (periodontal disease) and several teeth needing serious work including decay and new crowns. Came in for a cleaning first but he cut the cleaning short, withheld administering much needed anesthetic to finish the cleaning, because he wanted to drill a filling. When I repeatedly complained and asked that he let his assistant finish the cleaning, he told me (reluctantly after many attempts at asking why) that I had taken already too much time. He was also sulking and clearly offended that I had challenged his timeframe but my teeth needed more attention to finish the cleaning which even his employee doing the cleaning agreed although he was not comfortable agreeing out loud. I don't feel that his employees are well respected and allowed to voice their opinions in his practice. I offered to pay extra (in cash) to have the work finished! He refused and so when I refused to have any other work performed he became insulted and started acting like a child. I was asked to leave, and basically dropped as a patient at that point. He apologized after I threatened to not pay at all, and offered me to pay half, which I did ($100) but he still has my full set of x-rays which I will need going forward and which I've paid for. Definitely a very unpleasant experience. He turned his back on me and closed the door in my face as we were talking at one point. Visiting the dentist is already unpleasant I don't need to be treated in this manner on top of it. He might be a great dentist, who knows? with that sort of attitude I might never find out. read more
