This was my second experience with Dr Mellman. The first…read moreexperience was a mere 11 years ago! A Little Background. I've had very little trouble with my teeth, thanks to my genes and my oral hygiene. My regular dentist? All he gets to do to me is a prophylactic treatment twice a year. That translates into a little housekeeping and cleaning of my choppers. I've always felt fortunate. That I've never had a cavity. I guess I'd say I'm enamored with my enamel, thanks to my kith and kin. (What'd he say?) The First Visit. I had a pocket area in a part of my gums that wasn't any huge concern, but I wanted it gone, so my dentist instantly referred me to Dr Mellman. From the beginning, I felt very comfortable with the doctor and his staff. I was seeing a man who was precisely dedicated to 'doing things right' and was extremely learned. Dr Mellman has excellent 'chairside manner', too. A real plus! The Second Visit. Fast forward those 11 years, and I find myself with a similar pocket in a gum. Much different than gum in your pocket.. Or, is it? LOL Without batting an eye, I knew who I was gonna call. Ain't gonna be Ghostbusters. After all those years. It was like I was walking back in time. The staff remembered me, which is really awesome OR what'd I do this time? LOL It was business as usual once I sat in that chair, peppered with an enormous amount of good will, laughs and admiration. In a nutshell. Everything went smoother than smooth! I can attest to having had a micro-mini negligible nanosecond of discomfort. The procedure was quite tedious for the doc and his able assistant. But they never missed a beat and I'm so glad! 6 Weeks Later. I'm good to go! I've got a squeaky-clean dental machine!

I've felt nothing but honesty and ethical treatment. As a healthcare professional, I should know about when someone is treating you honestly and when someone is treating you otherwise. Dr Zach has the latest technology, has a machine on site for certain restorations so no temporary needed while you wait for the lab to create one. I've had some cavities taken care of both with drills for more involved cavities and the laser for less involved, superficial ones. He did an onlay for one of my molar which I cracked after a few years (I grind/clench, so I put a lot of pressure on my teeth). When I came to have it taken care of, Dr Zach took care of it free of charge since I keep my appointments and follow through with the plan set in place to do what I must to care for my teeth. I was shocked! I fully expected to have to pay for the work's full charge (it is a business after all). I had a couple cavities taken care of a 1 point and Dr Zach saw that I had chipped my tooth and said he had enough left over amalgam to fill in that chip. Again, since it was not a cavity and not in the plan, he smoothed it out and filled it...... free of charge. Dr Zach has done nothing but great work and treated me wonderfully. He just told me that he is going to Guatemala this year for some mission/humanitarian work. I respect this tremendously. I think that's very telling of a person. My GF has decided to not go to her corporate dentist since they soak you and ethics can go out the window. I suggested that she go to WCD since I know that she will get great care and respect here like I have. I am lucky to have a good job, insurance and HSA plan. I feel for those without. One must realize that the job of the healthcare professional is assess for problems, create a plan of correction and implement treatment. Some might take urgency to take care of the problem to prevent it from getting much worse as a money grab and that makes me sad (trust issues, conspiracy theories, the "man" out to get them, etc). I'm guessing the question of what was holding her back was designed to get an idea of a payment plan possibility so the health of her teeth (which can turn into general health and cardiac problems) do not suffer or worsen. I think Dr Zach is fantastic and will continue to be a pt of his for as long as i'm in this area.

He is truly meticulous, patient, and dedicated to doing things the right way for every individual who walks in. Our patients consistently comment on how comfortable he makes them feel and how thoroughly he explains each step. From what I witness behind the scenes, he is honest, skilled, and genuinely cares about outcomes--not just getting people in and out. If you're looking for a periodontist who takes his time, values quality, and treats patients with respect, I can confidently say you're in great hands here.

I do not recommend this periodontist. I did not have a positive experience. I found him to be…read morearrogant, uncaring, and disrespectful. He seemed to get irritated if you take too much of his time or ask too many questions. I had to ask for the antibiotics after the gum surgery, and he gave me the prescription as a photocopy, rather than the original receipt, which I have never seen any doctor's office do. Neither he nor his staff ever called to check back on me to see how I was doing, even though I have serious medical issues. I researched his records online, and found he has some criminal records, which I did not discover until after I had the bone graft. When I tried to call for a checkup after the 4 month healing period, their phones were blocking my calls. I tried to reach them for 2 weeks by asking someone to go by there and tell them I was trying to reach them, and they claimed they were having problems with their phones. What doctor's office leaves their phones out of service for 2 weeks, and does not answer calls from their patients? I won't be back there. I would carefully consider being careful to not put my care into any dentist who conducts his practice in such a cold, calculating manner as that. I do not recommend this doctor.

The staff greeted me warmly, and Megan took great care of me both at the start and after my visit. The X-rays were quick and painless. Aspen Dental traumatized me with this. Nicole, the hygienist, was absolutely amazing. She gave my mouth a deep, thorough cleaning and really took her time to make sure everything was done right. Afterward, she spent a few minutes educating me on recommended floss, proper flossing and brushing techniques, and the impact behind tartar and plaque. My visit was truly a 10/10 experience.

My dentist recommened them to me. I was having a bit of aniexty because I'm known to have adverse…read moreeffects from pharmacuticals so this is a nerve wrecking experience for me. I spoke to someone 3xs before coming in due to paying out of pocket. The issue I had with this is she gave me 3 different prices. EVERY time she told me the CT was included with the price for a root canal. I have it written down 3xs. All three times there was a different price listed on the exception of the CT scan. The CT scan and consulation would be a different price if he didn't do the root canal which was fine and it made sense. When I got there she told me the CT scan was an addtional 250 and then some other fee so in short it was going to be 1400. Again another price change. So when I said something she started arguing with me and getting louder. I wasn't trying to argue. I stated the fact that she told me something else previously and then I tried to clarify by repeating what she said. She was very frustrating and even motioned to someone else and when I said "I don't need another person involved I was just clarifying because you gave me three different prices before." She acted like I did something wrong and started talking slower to me as if I'm an idiot. I was just repeating what she said for clarification since I had 3 other prices at home. IN NO WAY did she need to raise her voice or go to stand. In no way or shape or form am I tolerate to these types of behaviors anymore. I use to be and I use to just stand there and take it but the older I get the more it makes me want to punch them in the nose. I won't and wouldn't but I seriously miss the days that if someone behaved poorly you could. When I was taken to the back not only was my aniexty high but I was nervouse, so I chatter. The girl that took me back apologized and was completely unbothered by me. She was super sweet. She showed me the cost but again I think it was more like here let me explain it to you dumbass. Very annoyed at this point and I couldn't wait to leave. I was fine about paying it either way. I just wanted my tooth fixed. Money is always a concern but I have the money. I could have pulled the entire amount out of my savings but with the present virus and all I'm trying to be a bit more mindful since I haven't worked in 3 months now due to it. The dentist was very pleasant. Very professional and had great bed side manner. He explained my crown to me telling me there wasn't anything he can do but seriously I'm not sure why the infection can't be taken care of without pulling my tooth. The only real tooth I've ever had any issues with in 28 years. Its in the back but I'm still rather freaked out on why it can't be fixed and the fact it will have to be pulled. I view losing teeth as a lack of self care and dirty which I take care of myself and my teeth. So I'm really not happy about it but what am I to do? I do realize that is not truly the only case and reason people lose their teeth but never the less. I'll be going back to my dentist in a few weeks. Thankfully I have zero pain.
