It was extremely embarrassing, considering a lot of people have a huge fear of going to the dentist as adults ...and I am one of them! He also asked me during an exam (in an open room ) full of people if I was Bulimic (which I am not, but had other personal health issues that lead to this that I did not want to disclose in public ) because the enamel on my teeth had worn off so much. I honestly was humiliated and left in tears after that and have never gone back. I found a new dentist that has a wonderful bedside manner and she will be taking care of all my dental needs from here on out.

It was hard for my wife and I to find a competent dentist in the Columbia area. The practices that…read morewe visited ranged from either complete incompetence, to too much, 'down-home, country garbage,' So, I kind of just chose a dentist that was within 4 miles of our home. We're satisfied with this one. There was one girl at the front desk, who wouldn't return phone calls about insurance quotes; or gave wrong answers on amounts owed. She no longer works there. I feel confident enough in this dentist, that I've begun taking my 90 year-old mother there! That should say something.

If you need a dentist in the Columbia, SC area simply google dentists and the names of scores of…read moredentists will appear...you can select one and copy the number and call for an appointment. On the other hand if you need a DENTIST then I would recommend that you consider Nicholas D. Gee at 1701 Saint Julian PL. I make the above statement because Dr. Gee is a skilled, caring and down to earth professional who takes pride in his work and values each and every patient. He takes his work very seriously and treats his patients with kindness and respect. Having taken over the practice from his father Dr. George Gee, Nic has developed a staff of outstanding assistants who work to make this particular practice one of convenience and confidence for patients both young and old..... I recommend this practice without hesitation and as I indicated earlier there are lots of Dentists in the Columbia area however Dr. Nicholas D. Gee is my DENTIST and you might want to consider making him yours.

This is the first online review that I have ever written…read more In 2016, I had a filling fall out of my back molar while I was a student at USC. Obviously, as a student, my regular dentist was not in Columbia so I had to make a quick decision on a local dentist. A friend of mine recommended Crystal Johnson after she had a cleaning there, so I decided to go for it. Long story short, the filling that had fallen out of my tooth was so large that the tooth could only be repaired by a crown. Dr. Johnson was very nice and informative, and, from what I could tell, was doing a great job with my dental work. I had a pleasant experience at this dental office, despite the fact that I had to pay almost $600 out of pocket for the crown. Fast forward to today, and I have just gone in for my first tooth cleaning since having the crown put on (I know -I was very overdue for a cleaning). The x-rays were the first red flag, as you can see a very visible crack/gap in between my real tooth and the crown. Upon closer examination, the dentist explained that there are several issues with the crown and none of these issues could have been something I caused myself. He explained that he does not usually get involved in cases like this, but this was clearly "faulty dental work." I now need to have the crown replaced, only 2 short years after it was put on. I have reached out to Crystal Smiles several times over the phone, and have sent a fax (they do not have an email address published online) with the x-rays demonstrating the issues with the crown. I have gotten no response. If you require any dental procedures other than a tooth cleaning, I would not recommend this office. I will be paying $600 out of pocket again to have their dental work corrected.

Fantastic dentist! Dr. Doug Forbes definitely goes the extra mile. He absolutely saved my smile…read more I've been going to the cheap chain dentists for years and wow they did a terrible job. Dr. Doug was referred to me by a longtime patient for a crown and he noticed some things that the chain dentists did not. I was about to lose a tooth because of a bad filing from years ago. I've been to Aspen dental twice since that filing and they never noticed that I had a bunch of decay. Long story short he did a very thorough and wonderful job. His office was spotless, staff was amazing too. I highly recommend this place for all your dental needs.

I scheduled an appointment with this dental office a few weeks ago, unfortunately due to a heavy…read morework schedule I called the day of my appointment (three hours ahead) to cancel. I was told that I would be charged a 50 dollar fee. I decided to stay up after working a twelve hour shift so that I could make the appointment. Upon arrival I was met with a condescending and down right rude attitude from Amy. There was a discrepancy with my insurance, therefore I had my company insurance rep call and he was met with the same level of attitude. After a few minutes of being subjected to her attitude, I decided to cancel my appointment and look for a dentist elsewhere. Based off of her actions alone I will not recommend this office.

This review is specifically for the stockton family denistry located in Columbia SC…read more I would not recommend this business. The staff do not seem to understand how or care enough to do their job properly. I came here for a cleaning, xrays, and had a tooth filled that had a cavity. Later I was notified that i was responsible for a $700 bill that my insurance was refusing to cover. When I asked the claims specialist why the claim was rejected she let me know that its not her job to find out why and i would need to reach out to my insurance company. My insurance company let me know they only denied the claim because there were billing errors listed on the claim and it was submitted multiple times. They had already sent the dental office this information and were even willing to reach out to them again. The concerning part is the claims specialist didn't even take the time to follow up on the claim before sending me the bill and instead of taking accountability she acted as if it was no fault of hers when things were settled. The bill came out much less than $700 and i didn't owe them for any out of pocket expenses. Also the hole in my tooth wasn't filled properly. I had to go to another dental office to have the procedure redone. I didn't mind the loud club music they were playing though it seemed unprofessional for medical care. I could handle the poor attitude of the staff but, I can't compromise on getting quality dental care. I learned this is not the place for it.
