Adding an important update to my 5 star review:…read more This is entirely my fault but I wanted to mention it in case it helps someone else. There was an adjustment on my insurance and I owed more money, and was sent two bills via post office. I, a millennial, am horrible at checking snail mail and therefore did not notice. Once I received a debt collection letter, I decided to call the office to confirm it was a real bill. I was told about the two snail mail bills, and was told they don't call or email (which would have been nice for me). The ladies I spoke to were helpful and polite as I've always experienced with this office. It was an extra few hundred with the debt collection fees which I could have avoided. If you have any insurance related surgery, always check your SNAIL MAIL!

I was referred to Dr. T by my local dentist for extraction of my two wisdom teeth. I called the…read moreoffice the day after seeing my dentist to schedule a consultation. My records had already been faxed over and Dr. T reviewed my records ahead of my visit. Because my xrays were about 10 months old, they performed a new xray during my consultation. What stands out about this office is how thorough they all are - Dr. T talked me through the entire process and reviewed the risks involved with the extractions. His medical assistant/tech also talked me through the entire process again to ensure I had a clear understanding. I provided my insurance information ahead of the consultation (over the phone while scheduling and again within the new patient forms that I completed online). They verified my insurance and calculated the out of pocket costs for me which I paid during the visit. They were upfront and very transparent about the costs during the visit, and informed me that I should expect to receive a small bill post-visit. I paid a pre-surgical deposit that went towards the balance for the procedure. I was offered an appointment for the extractions as early as the following week, however I opted to schedule a month and a half later due to prior commitments. Ahead of my extractions, they sent my prescriptions to the pharmacy so I was able to pick them up before the procedure. I also received a couple of reminders for the visit. The extractions and healing went well. The care instructions provided were clear and easy to follow. The staff (front desk and clinical) are all very kind and welcoming, and I appreciated how patient they were as I was anxious about the procedure. The office is clean, modern looking and easy to find. Overall, I had a great experience at this practice!

This organization was evasive and deceitful with their presentation and explaining insurance…read morecoverage for consultations. Once my "consultation" was completed I was then given a document to sign regarding the consultation (not before with the other paperwork) and the person behind the receptionist's counter makes it seem like signing the document was nothing and just a normal regime, so I signed! Also, prior to being seen I was given paperwork to complete (Note: the consultation document was not included within this paperwork) it included a page to enter credit card information which I definitely did not complete. They also tried to schedule an appointment for the actual surgery and gave me two prescriptions for the surgery which I declined to schedule until I received information from my insurance company. They told me that they would get a breakdown from my insurance company and get back to me within two weeks, it has been three weeks and I have not heard from this business. Once I received my $271 consultation invoice I contacted the billing/receptionist who stated they have no idea what any insurance covers but at the time the document needed a signature it was certainly not presented in that manner. It is kind of odd being in business for so long that they have no idea what any insurance covers, even an estimate. If you what a clear understanding of what is covered CHECK PRIOR WITH YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY and ASK PLENTY OF QUESTIONS or LOOK FOR DENTISTS, ORAL SURGEONS, ORTHODONISTS THAT OFFER FREE CONSULTATIONS or ORGANIZATIONS that are just UPFRONT, HONEST and CLEAR! There were also issues with their imaging machinery. The dental assistants had me in and out the unit at least 4 times and the machine had to be turned off and on at least two times before they could get it working and get an image.

On two previous occasions over the years, Dr. Mennitt extracted two upper wisdom teeth, each of…read morewhich was a seamless in/out procedure. Based upon those experiences, I would not have thought that a return visit to have the bottom two wisdoms extracted would be a nightmare. Dr. Mennitt failed to keep me fully sedated under general anesthesia such that I became fully mentally aware during the sewing of my gums. As much as the anesthesia would allow, I physically struggled to let him know that I was in great distress, and I also attempted to the best of my ability to say three times "it hurts" all the while trying to move my mouth away from the source of excruciating pain. Mennitt kept on sewing. Apparently during my struggle I bit the inside of my lower lip which was pointed out to me by his assistant when I came to. Apparently, being unable to access my mouth at this point, further sedation was rendered as I was again put back out. I do not use Novocain relative to issues of a history of abuse. I was not asked to update my medical info even though it had been over 2 yrs. since my last appt. While Dr. Mennitt was inserting the drug line into my hand and while applying the drug(s) to anesthetize me, he was not wearing gloves; the same held true for his assistant when she reached into my mouth to remove the blood soaked gauze at the end of the procedure. While I was awake, I saw no one in the room use a mask, and I can only hope these items were employed during the oral surgery. Clearly, there was a failure to follow standard of care infection control protocol. There was no way anyone who was present in the room during the surgery would not have known I was in extreme distress. Based on his online bio & decades of experience, never would I have expected this to occur. Unbelievable to me was that Dr. Mennitt showed not a modicum of decency to approach me after the surgery to discuss what had happened. During the 3 appts., the only time I've ever seen Dr. Mennitt was before the surgeries, never after. During the two prior surgeries, unlike this one, Dr. Mennitt did not deliver the anesthetic. There was no charge on the bill for general anesthesia unlike the previous bills. Mennitt has a petulant demeanor and his communication skills are wanting. Realizing that I had never exercised due diligence in investigating Dr. Mennitt's online records, I searched the Maryland Judiciary Case Search database. I discussed with my general dentist who referred me to Dr. Mennitt the records under his name. Had I been aware of those records at the time of the initial referral, I would not have used his services.
