Dr. Broom and his exceptional staff always treat my children with kindness, gentleness and patience. We are seen promptly at each visit and my children love going every six months. It wasn't like that when I was a child. My, how things have changed! Dr. Broom and his assistants take time to explain what they are doing for my children so they understand what is happening. They take pride in making the visits fun for the children. I'm one of those moms that likes to ask questions and Dr. Broom makes sure I leave with all the information I need.

Warning, long review!! (This review is for you, office…read morestaff!) I was not even able to make it to the actual appointment to be able to review the hygienist team due to my child and I being in contact with someone who tested positive for COVID. This is 100% understandable, I mean, I was honest on the questionnaire, I would never want to jeopardize the health and lives of others... now what's NOT understandable, is I did not find out that the appointment would not be able to be completed until I was outside of the office at the appointment time. Very inconvenient. I had to pull my child out of daycare during nap time, leave work, just to be told that they would not honor the appointment. I am dissatisfied and disappointed because they had advance (5+ day) notice of our possible exposure, and not one time did they send a friendly "text" or courtesy phone call indicating the "guidelines" they are following. Speaking of text messages; they send plenty, and they mention something along the lines of "[name], welcome to Gulf Coast Pediatric Dentistry! Your appointment is scheduled for [date] at [time]. A legal guardian must be present for all new patient appointments. To limit exposure and maintain a healthy environment our waiting room is only open to scheduled patients and one parent/legal guardian. Thank you." Now this is a separate incident I am referring to so I don't want to lose you here.. but the overall message is poor communication and lack of accountability. Keep that in mind.. I am very much capable of reading and understanding what the automated text messages say. The staff members; however, at two different times, VERBALLY said: 1. It was okay for someone else to bring the child as long as they have documentation and 2. "Our office would not let someone who is not the child's guardian legally sign consents for the child to have dental care... the parent or legal guardian needs to be at the first appointment to sign the consents then whoever else can bring them to future appointments" OK COOL I am disturbed by how aggressive one in particular staff member (didn't catch her name) harped on the "text messages" and "policy" but not one time apologized for any inconveniences the office may have caused, including when their own staff member said it was okay for someone else to bring a child to the first appointment. So after the first incident I showed up to my child's appointment to sign consent and head back to work.. right? Well guess what?... SURPRISE! "The parent or legal guardian has to stay for the entire first appointment" I'm over them I tell ya, making rules up as we go now eh? Where's that in the "text messages"? This incident is minor.. we are not established patients here BUT the ethics behind the lack of accountability about the situation is what bothers me. Obviously they feel they can do NO wrong because "it's in the text messages! " NEXT CLINIC!! Because we will not be returning. (I must say, I believe it was Tiffany who I spoke with that was the much nicer staff member. She deserves a Starbucks gift card.) But throwing "text messages" in parents' faces when there are actual humans in the office that can very much so, provide more informative, precise, straight to the point information in a timely manner, isn't cool!! - signed, in & out

I personally witnessed today this Dentist office going against the state mandated regulations and had to cancel my son's procedure and ultimately switch Dentist offices!! Coastal Pediatric Dentistry under Dr. Jason Rector, located at 1119 42nd Ave. Gulfport, Ms 39501 is purposely violating the State regulations and putting you and your children at risk!! I urge each of you to be mindful that we can not trust everyone to follow the law, even MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS THAT KNOW BETTER!! You should not be sitting in ANY doctor's office without a mask, social distancing, and your temperature being checked prior to entering that building!! I have reported them to the state and now I'm notifing the community the best way I can!! Please protect your family and stay away from this place until they get it together! I voiced my concerns in the office and the Tech actually said that I could wait in my car if I didn't feel comfortable, but then send my child in when the OVERCROWDED OFFICE was ready for him!!‍‍ Y'all please be wise and refuse to pay for dangerous and unsafe care!!!
