I am severely dental phobic. I need anesthesia to make an appointment…read more My husband has been going to Dr. Kandl for years and finally convinced me to go due to a severe toothache. The front desk was so kind and sweet. Waiting room relaxing and you can't hear the drilling that makes me break out into a sweat and want to run. The Assistant and Dr Kandl listened to me.....every word and fear. They spent time with me and did not do anything until I was ready. Their demeanor and patience has made me a patient of theirs for life. I don't even get anxious anymore for teeth cleaning. THANK YOU! You are a true example of how patient care is supposed to be, especially someone with a horrible Phobia that needs care.

I had been a loyal patient of my previous dentist for over 30 years and never once had an issue…read morewith billing or unexpected charges. When he retired, I was referred to the new dentist who took over the practice. I had no existing relationship or loyalty to this new provider, and I was extremely clear from the start: I am out-of-network with United Concordia, I have never paid out-of-pocket for dental care, and I was not willing to start now. I told them directly that if they didn't take my insurance, I would go elsewhere. I asked multiple times before the appointment if I would be charged, and I was repeatedly assured that I would not. I was told they do this all the time, that a form would be submitted to my insurance provider, and that everything would be handled -- no worries. Now, I've been billed $350. When I followed up, they admitted they were unfamiliar with the various United Concordia plans and were unprepared for the volume of patients after taking over the practice. In other words, they gave me false information and are now walking it back with excuses. Their response was essentially: "We're being more careful now," which offers no resolution or accountability to the patients already affected by their mistake. This situation was entirely avoidable. I was proactive, transparent, and clear about my insurance and my expectations. They gave me misleading information, and now I'm left with a bill I never agreed to -- one I would have avoided had I received honest communication. This behavior is unethical. It's a complete lack of accountability and professionalism, and I find it unacceptable. I will be disputing this charge with the appropriate authorities and reporting the incident as necessary. I strongly advise others to get every assurance from this office in writing. Based on my experience, I would not trust their word.

The Hygienist was very…read morenice and easy to work with but when Virginia the dentist walked in it was as if the Tasmanian Devil walked in. She was nasty from the start. She asked me if I had any medial issues, I told her no, only elevated blood pressure (obviously meaning, I don't have any issues other than elevated blood pressure) her response was "Well that is a health issues", yeah, no shit lady! Honestly, It wasn't so much what she said but the tone she used when she said it. Then she examined my teeth and she made it seem as if I was dying of periodontal disease. She DID NOT explain anything to me like what area of the gums needed attention, she made it seem as if I was going to wake up with all my teeth on my pillow the next morning! When I asked questions I was met with more attitude and a nasty demeanor. I asked her if she was the only doctor here and her response was "yes, and I'm not going anywhere". Well Virginia you can keep your ass right there b/c I'm the one whose going somewhere and it's FAR away from you! I go and find a periodontist since you know, I'm dying of periodontal disease and I needed my x-rays as my insurance won't pay for it again since I just had them done. I went back and I told staff I was going to need my x-rays for the periodontist and staff had the nerve to ask me why. I simply told her I wanted to see a specialist. Right away I felt her being indifferent, she took it PERSONAL and she became very cold. I asked her if she would email them today as my appointment was for today, she said yes and NEVER sent them!!!! This would have taken her all but 2 minutes! and guess what, my periodontist was AMAZING and re-did my X-rays for FREE!!!! and the 360 x-rays too AND I found out I am NOT dying of periodontal disease !!! This periodontist was a God sent. If you need a periodontist I HIGHLY recommend Daniel Biar. Not only was staff amazing he was close to perfect! Sometimes you have to have a bad experience to lead you to the right place! If you can, RUN from A + Smile and leave that nasty lady right there!

On top of that, I was overbilled twice, and despite reaching out repeatedly, I still haven't received a proper explanation or correction. What makes this even more unfortunate is that the dental hygienist is excellent -- professional, thorough, and genuinely caring. It's a shame that the front office's lack of communication and billing errors overshadow the quality of care provided in the chair. Based on my experience, I can't recommend this office until they significantly improve their responsiveness and billing practices.
