I would like to preface my review by stating that I believe Dr. Sharon Foreman is a very caring and…read morecompetent pediatric dentist who goes above and beyond. Before today, I could not imagine entrusting the dental care of my children to anyone else. Twelve years ago, I began taking my oldest daughter to Dr. Foreman when she was commuting from Asheville and working out of Dr. Scott Murphy's office. She was new to the area and just starting her practice. My daughter was turning 2 at the time and was deathly afraid of needles, shots, and pretty much any place that resembled a medical facility. I had no idea at the time how lucky I was when I blindly choose Dr. Foreman for my daughters first dental appointment and teeth cleaning. To make a long story short, I was amazed by Dr. Foreman's friendly demeanor, caring bedside manner, and patient, motherly touch to which she lovingly provided to the area children and the disabled, without sacrificing her commitment to quality care. Through out the years, Dr. Formans office, staff and practice grew, first going out on her own and and obtaining her first small space in the Grace Hospital office complex and then to her designing and building the the beautiful, rustic, and kid friendly "mountain lodge" we know as Morganton Childrens Dental Center today. During all these years and among all these changes, my family was growing too, I had 3 more children, went through a divorce, moved twice, both times an hour and once an hour an a half away, but one thing remained constant.. I made the commute without a second thought and all of my children remained patients of Dr. Sharon Foreman. It is with great sadness that as of today, I must report my children will never again set foot in Dr. Formans office. That being said, this review is regarding the experience I had with office administrative assistant, Melanie Jo Bivens today, which ultimately has fueled my decision to remove my children from the practice and never return. To make things a little more understandable I first need to explain that with all the growth Dr. Foremans practice had, not all change has been good. Over the past year especially, I have noticed the office has become more disorganized and on at least 4 occasions over the past year, I made the commute to Morganton with my youngest for his appointment only to find out that a. the office was closed with a sign on the door, no one had called to cancel the appointment.(They have my cell phone number and I carry it at all times.) b. my son had dental surgery scheduled at a Morganton dental outpatient center and when we arrived for the surgery we were told the referral and x-rays were never faxed over (I asked for a paper copy and was assured it was taken care of already, that everything was done digitally) Of course, it was Friday and Dr. Foremans office was closed so again, we had to reschedule the surgery.. c. Office staff forgot to call in Anxiety/Pain medication for my son and so after we arrived we were told we had to reschedule the appointment for a later date. Because of this mistake, he could not be seen even though he had a severely abscessed tooth because even if we had picked it up then, he would have to wait an hour for it to take effect. d. The anxiety/pain medication was called in but to to the wrong CVS so we had to drive an hour to go pick it up, even though I explained to office staff on several occasions that we had moved and switched pharmacies. e. my sons last appointment was scheduled for September, and after picking him up early, signing him out from school, we drove to CVS, picked up and administered the medicine, and then drove to Morganton to find the parking lot was empty, the lights were al off and the door was locked. There was no sign on the door. I was confused and a little shocked, then just as I was about to head back to my car, the phone rang and office staff was calling to cancel the appointment, less than 2 minutes before it was scheduled. I was very upset because I had already given my son the medicine and I was told I should not return him to school. I was further advised that they would call me to reschedule his appointment. Sadly, a month went by without any call, things were busy and it slipped my mind until my son started complaining about the pain in his tooth again. At that point, I called and rescheduled the appointment myself. It was this appointment that was scheduled for tomorrow at 830 AM, and that has prompted this review. This afternoon, as I was running around Christmas shopping, it occurred to me that they would want my son to have the pain/anxiety medication again, and so I called the office and left a message, reminding the office staff that if they needed him to have it to be seen tomorrow, that they would need to call it in for him. About an hour later, I rec'd a call, which I assumed was the office staff calling to confirm the appointment and let me know whether he needed the medicine or not. Nothing c

From the moment I entered I felt at ease. Dr. Scheller and associates clearly explained a plan of care based on my dental needs. I have had four visits now to replace fillings, and put in new fillings. Each visit has been extremely compassionate and professional. Each visit has provided more and more confidence in the team at Viewmont. I know I'm in good hands at Viewmont. I failed to mention, I am on Medicaid, and that has not made one bit of difference in the care I am receiving. I find it admirable that any physician accepts those in need. It shows they have a compassionate, human, side. I still have a way to go before I will feel better about my teeth, but I'm on my way; thanks to, Viewmont. I would highly recommend Viewmont Family Dentistry to anyone needing great oral healthcare, major work, or just a dentist who goes above and beyond. I am truly impressed with the care and standard of care at Viewmont. The dentist I saw before running to Viewmont did not explain anything, and did not identify half the issues I have. Standards of care vary greatly, but Viewmont nails it. Great job by the entire staff. I truly feel Blessed to have found Viewmont, and would reccomend them to anyone. Excellent job, excellent care~ M.C. Bryan Statesville, N.C.

Unfortunately, on the day of my appointment I slept through two alarms because I've been having to take sleeping medication to SLEEP THROUGH my pain, and was told that I could no longer reschedule with the because I was a new patient who missed their first appointment. No "rescheduling fees" nothing. No second chances. They completely dumped me before seeing me because of something that was out of my control. This shows lack of empathy, understanding and caring and I'm thankful I didn't even get the chance to let them touch my mouth. At the end of the day it was my fault for that accident, but at the same time, then not providing any additional options (like paying a reschedule fee) and just flat out dumping me when my mouth is infected is a pretty nasty business practice.
