When I started with them a few years ago, I was so happy to have found them after a bad experience with a Keene dentist. Plus, they were preferred providers with my dental insurance (they since have stopped being preferred providers with any insurance - ouch!). I have crowns and grind and clench. I wear a night guard. I do not eat chewy or hard things, searched and researched a toothpaste that wouldn't erode the crown's surfaces, I even brush for 2 minutes twice a day (I actually time it). Then I had a couple of teeth (crowns) break - front teeth - just suddenly I felt an object in my mouth, then another. Fortunately, I didn't swallow them! I didn't see my usual dentist. I saw some guy I didn't know, rushed me, and did not take into account my anxiety. I needed a partial, and the partial was a catastrophe. I was never given an opportunity to have a say in color. What I received was a partial that made it look as if those teeth were rotting and one of the "teeth" on it was crooked. I brought up the crooked tooth, and was told "it has to be like that." It took time, but I went back with my complaints and worked with my usual dentist. They were going to re-do the partial. It took 6 weeks to get it. It was lovely. The color we chose matched my teeth, the crooked "tooth" was straightened. Nice, yes? After 4 days, the partial broke. I went back, and was told "there is nothing we can do." I paid a lot for that dental appliance, and first, it was hideous, then beautiful, and then broke within a few days. Nothing they could do! I walked out in shock. Once in my car, I was so angry that I was shaking. Did I go back in? No. I have a valid, real condition regarding anxiety and medical practitioners. I was unable to go in. I will do something about such callous care - write reviews, and write to Bowman with photos. Frankly, I am traumatized by the whole mess. I also think, in part, I received poor care, "unable to do", because I was looking into going to another dentist - a practice that is a preferred provider with my insurance. I was still going to Bowman, because of the issues we were already in the middle of. I'd already paid Bowman, and it was definitely more than $1,000 for the partial. Now, I have a really ugly partial, a "new partial that broke within days, and am looking at paying for the same partial with a different dentist. Bowman's practice has gone from caring about clients to making that cha-ching!

There are too few words in the English language to describe what Bowman Dental has done for me…read more I'll do my best... Long story short, I was born with very weak teeth and had spent thousands of dollars trying to save them until they just weren't salvageable. I initially opted for dentures at another dentist. They were awful. I couldn't eat without them falling out, I gagged all the time, my upper lip started curling in and, at 45, i felt like I would never be the same again. I looked into many options to get all on 4 and some told me my case was too complex. Some were priced so outrageously I couldn't even imagine this being a possibility. I was so depressed. I even considered going to Mexico but my concern was that I would go through all that and then have complications that would make me fly back and forth to a foreign country and I could never afford that. One day, I got out of my funk and decided to hunt for someone again after realizing I feared going to Mexico and having complications. Bowman offered financing options I was approved for to get an All on 4 package. From my first meeting with Dr Bowman I knew my life would change forever. He has one of the best bedside manners I've ever witnessed. I've seen dozens of dentists and no one tops him. He explained everything in great detail and we came up with a plan. I couldn't believe I'd have new teeth and part of my life back so soon! Dr Bowman was a pure gem throughout the process. I was never waiting long for an appointment. His staff is beyond amazing and it is such a pleasure to watch them interact with him as he trains them during procedures. They clearly deeply respect him and love their jobs. I'm the middle of treatment I was diagnosed with cancer. This delayed my finals and could have seriously caused issues with my healing. Dr Bowman accommodated me every step of the way, working around my cancer appointments and becoming more like family than a medical professional. I can't imagine ever going to another dental practice. Today I feel beautiful, confident, and the compliments I get on my stunning, natural looking all on 4 are so uplifting. Don't give it a second thought, book now!

After defending myself from his invasions of my personal space, the young man stalked off and refused to treat me!

He asked me a question and, when I tried to answer, he continually waving his fingers not 3" from my face -- very impolite and very distracting.

Since late May, I have been hospitalized three times: first at Bridgeport Hospital in Bridgeport,…read moreCT, then at Middlesex Hospital in Middletown, CT, and now at Valley Regional Hospital in Claremont, New Hampshire. I was admitted this morning after an ambulance transport to their ER. I was initially surprised by their three-star rating and couldn't understand the reason. This is my second encounter with this Claremont hospital. Several years ago, I visited their ER due to a kidney stone; their care was outstanding, and I vowed to return if needed. Yesterday, I was treated for a hematoma in my left thigh on the ER floor, similar to treatment I previously received at the VA hospital in White River Junction. As my condition worsened, I was transported by ambulance to the nearest ER, which turned out to be here at Valley Regional--the staff were professional, attentive, and compassionate. In particular, Jeffrey, the paramedic on duty, provided remarkable care, exemplifying excellent emergency services. After tests, I was admitted this morning and met Kathy, the floor nurse, to be equally genuine, a true empathy with the perfect bedside manner personality, and skill level that made my stay exceptional. Not all the hospital beds I've had to sleep in over the past two months have been this comfortable. This room and VRH was private and calming. I'm not sure how people aren't experiencing the same relief I am, as everyone here has been exceptional.
