He was able to explain exactly what was going on by walking me through pictures and Xrays (note: no other dentist ever explained why my filling kept bothering me). He fixed the filling on the spot!

I will definitely be going back for a cleaning soon! Best dentist experience I've had!

I do not recommend going to River Run Dental at 1461 Greenbrier Place, Charlottesville, VA. The…read moreonly two times I went were anything but pleasant. The treatment I received was very cold, especially from the doctor. The second time I went was for a tooth extraction. That same dentist was unable to complete the procedure and sent me home with half of the tooth broken, which cut into my tongue and caused constant pain. I had to wait an entire week like that until a surgeon at another clinic could finally treat me. To make matters worse, when I complained about their poor service, they told me I wouldn't have to pay. Now, I've received a text saying that I owe them money. In the end, they're charging me after explicitly saying they wouldn't. I could have sued them for this, but honestly, I don't have the time to waste.

We had left our long-time dentist due to a falling out over poor care and billing issues, and I didn't feel comfortable simply picking out an appropriate dentist out of the phone book. Upon our orthodontist's recommendation, we went to see Dr. Alcorn. My 13-year-old son was understandably anxious, but Dr. Alcorn's staff could not have been more considerate and understanding. They made him feel as comfortable as possible under the circumstances. They gave me the option to sit in on the procedure, but I didn't because my son absolutely forbid it. So I sat in the waiting area, wondering if he was doing okay. Dr. Alcorn came out to tell me that he did well, and was happy to answer the few questions I had. My son told me that his hygienist was "cool", which is high praise indeed from him! A week later, I took my son back for a checkup on the gums where his teeth had been removed, and to have the remaining adult molars sealed to help guard against future cavities. At the same time, I had my 10-year-old daughter in for her cleaning. Both kids said they liked the hygienists that were working with them. I will say this, Dr. Alcorn has a no-nonsense way about her. She is definitely not the "warm fuzzy" type, although her receptionist and her hygienists are. If you are a very sensitive individual that prefers to be coddled a bit, then Dr. Alcorn is probably not a good match for you. There are some highly regarded dentists in Charlottesville that specialize in sedated dentistry, that might prove a better fit. For my family, however, Dr. Alcorn and her staff turned out to be just what we needed!

I made the appointment and…read moreexplained that I wanted a $99 tooth extraction, and I said the same thing when I showed up to the appointment. Wouldn't you know it, I paid $235 to have them cleaned and X-rayed, then she sent me on my way without pulling the broken tooth. She apparently scheduled me for a follow-up cleaning, which I did not keep (I only wanted a $99 tooth extraction, not a freaking commitment) so she put me into collections over a bill for a missed appointment. I feel like such a chump. This was 5+ years ago I think. I hope she becomes a politician, she would fit right in.

He was not only pleasant, friendly, and knowledgeable, but within minutes (and asking all the right questions) he made me feel at ease about the future of my treatment. Fall is the worst season for me, and this is a new city, but the best part about this visit was the identification of a skin condition I've had since 2020 and giving it a name, one that left previous doctors unsure. I've been baffled by it and am grateful of the diagnosis and can look forward to taking better care of it now. I am yet to get my shots here, will update further when the time comes.

I had already visited other MyEyeDr offices to shop and compare, as I was looking to get a backup pair of prescription sunglasses. I found most of the other offices far more customer-friendly than this one. With the exception of Avory, who was most impressive in her courtesy, professionalism and superb customer service skills, I found the front staff lacking in their approach to customer service. Unfortunately, I did not have an opportunity to work with Avory. However, I continually observed her performance with other customers while I was working with Rashonda. Avory genuinely seemed happy to be working there and always verbally welcomed guests as they entered the office. Other staff appeared to have a perfunctory "just going through the motions" attitude about their work. I am rating this office three stars, rather than only two stars, because everyone seemed to be technically competent in their trade. Thus, if you care only about technical proficiency, then this office is fine. But if you're like me and you want not only technical competence from your eye doctor experience, but a friendly, engaging interaction where you feel welcomed and glad you came, then I don't think the Pantops (Jefferson Parkwy) office is your best option. If you are lucky to work with Avory, then you should walk away feeling very pleased with your experience. Otherwise, with the other front staff, I recommend looking elsewhere. I certainly plan to choose another MyEyeDr office after I pick up my current pair of sunglasses soon! Thank you, Avory, for setting a good role-modeling example for your colleagues. I hope they will heed your example of stellar, professional and friendly customer service!
