    Dr. Josh is AMAZING! He has done a great job making what could have been a traumatic experience more than manageable for me.

    Tarantino is by far the best dentist I've been to and due to my many dental issues I've been to many.

This morning, Sheranlee (please forgive me if I've misspelled your name) took the time to help me file six pages worth of claim forms with my dental insurance carrier. Since I'm officially out-of-network, her efforts will go far in helping me secure $3,000 (my dental plan's annual limit) in reimbursements from the company. Needless to say, I'm happy to be reimbursed. More importantly, though, was the warmth, kindness, and professionalism displayed by Sheranlee in completing my task. She never made me feel like it was an imposition. Instead, she showed a great deal of enthusiasm in helping me, and displayed keen attention to detail, knowing how important the paperwork was to me. That being said, I would be remiss if I failed to mention the kindness and support given to me by Connie, the office manager. She obviously sets the tone for the entire staff to follow, in making their patients feel cared for and special

Knowing it would be costly, I wanted dental work, but I felt nickel and dimed. We discussed all the work I would need. I went to the front to the "money grab" person and was given a quote of 16K. I asked if that included everything discussed. I was assured yes. I then began to look at the quote and said I don't see this, I don't see this and I don't see this. The person said oh, I don't know why they weren't included and all of a sudden the quote was now 22K. It left a negative feeling in my mind.

    Absolutely Traumatizing Experience - Avoid at All Costs…read more I had the misfortune of being referred to The Smilist Dental in Massapequa for a wisdom tooth extraction, and I cannot stress enough how awful the experience was, particularly with the oral surgeon. From my first visit, I was made to feel uncomfortable. The surgeon bluntly told me I was "too old" to be having a wisdom tooth removed and insisted I would have to pay $300 for a CT scan out-of-pocket, claiming my insurance "never covers it" based on "other patients" with the same provider. When I told the receptionist I wanted to check with my insurance first before paying, I was met with pushback and attitude, as well as a request to put a card on file "just in case", which I refused. Here's what really happened: I called my insurance, and they confirmed it would be covered pending prior authorization. When I called The Smilist back to tell them this, they were clearly annoyed. The CT scan ended up being covered 100%.. Which makes me wonder how many people they've pressured into paying out-of-pocket unnecessarily. Once the prior authorization was approved, I got two separate phone calls asking me to schedule an appointment I had already scheduled. When I told them I had one booked, I got attitude again. The procedure itself was horrific. The surgeon showed up over 30 minutes late. I was the first appointment of the day, with no apology or explanation. He walked in and immediately began stabbing my gums with Novocaine - no warning, no heads-up, just jab after painful jab. He was extremely rough, and I was physically gripping the chair in pain. During the procedure, he barked orders at his assistant (who, for the record, was the only decent person I encountered and it was clearly his first day on the job.), had him forcibly hold my chin despite a jaw jam already being in place, and carelessly scraped my other teeth with his tools. When he began drilling, I could feel it. I winced in pain and tried to indicate I wasn't numb yet. Instead of pausing or checking in properly, he poked my face and said, "Do you feel this?", then yelled "Ma'am!" in my ear when I couldn't answer fast enough (gee, maybe because I had a jaw spreader in my mouth and couldn't talk). Eventually, I was given more Novocaine, but the lack of empathy and professionalism was staggering. Aftercare? Even worse. My face is extremely swollen, more than any dental procedure I've ever had, and I'm still in significant pain two days later. I can barely talk without discomfort. To top it all off, the surgeon prescribed me ibuprofen for the pain despite telling me at my first appointment that he couldn't prescribe that to me due to a previous surgery I've had. He knew I couldn't take it and prescribed it anyway. That level of carelessness is absolutely unacceptable. The only positive in this entire nightmare was the assistant, who did his best to help and stay calm despite the toxic environment. This was one of the most unprofessional, painful, and emotionally draining medical experiences I've ever had. I would never recommend this surgeon or location to anyone. Save yourself the pain and go somewhere that actually respects and listens to their patients.
