Dr Julio Sanchez supposed to complete my implant and they never call me for follow up. I called many times and always gave excuses or they never return my calls.

Dr Montoya told me that he will continue with the treatment, but he never call me after that. I called and that two ladies in the front desk said that I need to wait until someone call me.

It has been since the pandemic that I have ventured out to visit the dentist. Not that I have…read moremissed the experience, nor have I been "chomping at the bit" to go back. From the initial call to the appointment, the staff here made it a very easy and smooth process. The facilities are spacious and modern. The aesthetics from the lobby to the rooms lend an air of spa-like relaxation. The people are where this practice truly shines. They made me feel comfortable and at ease. They seem to know that going to the dentist is not at the top of my list of favorite places, but their friendliness and professionalism put you at ease right away. Even in dealing with my insurance, they filed the paperwork for me. If you have any qualms about going to the dentist, this should be your first stop.

Smile Design Ocala: The Dental Dealership Experience…read more You know how car dealerships lure you in with a shiny sticker price, then by the time you're signing paperwork you've somehow agreed to pay for undercoating, a nitrogen tire package, and a "documentation fee" that exists purely to make a grown adult cry in a cubicle? Dentist offices have cracked that same code, and Smile Design in Ocala is no exception. I called ahead. I asked the right questions. I was told, clearly, that my out-of-pocket cost with no insurance would be $150. That number lived rent-free in my head the entire drive over. One hundred and fifty dollars. I had budgeted. I had mentally prepared. I marched back to that dental chair with the confidence of someone who had done their homework. You can probably guess where this is going. Somewhere between the bib and the bright light in my face, a $49 fee materialized out of thin air. For what, exactly? Great question. The explanation was the kind of vague, practiced non-answer that suggests they have given it many times before. It had the energy of a car dealer explaining what "market adjustment" means - technically words, technically a sentence, completely devoid of useful information. Look, $49 is not going to ruin my life. But it is going to ruin my mood, my trust, and my willingness to recommend you to literally anyone I know. Transparency is free. Surprises at checkout are not the flex you think they are.

The day before my appointment then reminded me FULL payment would be required $6700, really!! Then after I waited to have all the funds, I paid the full amount upfront, even though my insurance confirmed payment of $2250. They submitted it to my insurance, to be paid to them!! How could they make such a mistake. They always get everyone's money up front. Now 5 months later I still have not reimbursed by my insurance company, STICKNEY office staff says they have requested my refund but now blame the mail inefficiency for my refund not being delivered yet. I will not be returning. SAD to be so dishonest. Truly a BAIT and SWITCH. I plan to file a formal complaint with the state of Florida.

I had a wonderful experience, starting on day 1 when I visited Stickney Dental as a new patient. I…read morehad not been to a dentist in over 20 years, and I was expecting a lot of work to be done. The front desk was very nice, as was Dr Stickney, his assistant, the 2 dental hygienists and Dr Robin (his wife). They took ex-rays, came up with a game plan and gave me the estimated cost to me, after my insurance was applied....so I would be shocked at when I paid for the work done. The one thing they told me is it won't be higher than the estimate and might even be lower, once the work began. Guess what, it was lower! I began my work - had 2 cleanings (1 week apart), then received my temporary crowns, which he makes in house! A few weeks later, I received my permanent crowns (again, makes in-house). Let me remind you that I had 8 crowns put on my upper teeth and I had to get used to them. There was some discomfort after the temporary crowns were installed (about 4/5 days), yet Advil and Tylenol helped a lot. Then had the permanent crowns put on 4 weeks later and I was feeling great the next day. I would definitely recommend Stickey Dental, just as it was recommended to me by friends!

I don't want a root canal. I just want the tooth pulled. I sat in the dental chair crying. There's now a lump above the broken tooth and I was prescribed antibiotics. I begged them to please pull the tooth. I'm still stuck with tooth. Where I was sent cost $250 to take an X-ray I think 3D and once there all I kept hearing was we only do root canals. I stated this dental office sent me here for the x-ray and once again "We only do root canals." I finally had my first nervous breakdown in 3 years and next a grand mal seizure. All because I wanted my tooth pulled. I'm still stuck with a tooth that's split in half and I guess I will go to a dental school place to get this tooth extracted. Dental care seems to be a luxury and only for those with disposable income which I don't have. I just can't anymore. This was unacceptable. I wouldn't recommend this place for my dog.
