    After more than 10 years with this practice, I'm incredibly disappointed to be writing this…read more I'm autistic, and like many neurodivergent people, I struggle with scheduling and making it to appointments. I want to be clear: I am already deeply aware of this, and I feel embarrassed and awful when it happens. Nothing feels worse than standing at the garage door with my keys in hand, frozen, shaking, overwhelmed, and filled with guilt. This isn't carelessness or laziness, it's something I actively work to manage. I also understand that missed appointments affect a business, and I am willing to accept financial penalties when appropriate. I appreciate that Pecan Park Dental has waived some missed appointment fees for me in the past. However, my most recent experience felt shaming and dismissive of my disability, and I left in tears. The morning of a scheduled appointment, I was called and told my insurance would not cover the visit because I had hit my maximum. I was told I would need to pay $540 out of pocket for a routine cleaning. I could not afford that and chose to reschedule for a future date when my insurance would cover it. At that time, I was told I would still be charged a $100 late cancellation fee, even though this cost was only communicated to me the morning of the appointment. When I returned months later for the rescheduled visit, I tried to explain that this situation resulted from an insurance and communication issue. Instead of working with me, I was repeatedly pressured in the waiting room to pay the $100 fee. I explained multiple times that I did not have the money that day. I was asked for credit card information over and over, in front of my daughter and other patients. It was humiliating. I ended up crying in the office while still being asked for payment. When I later tried to explain the situation, I was sent a chart of my missed appointments. It felt less like an attempt to understand and more like an effort to reinforce guilt. That approach isn't helpful, it adds to the shame and makes it even harder to access care. Experiences like this are exactly why many neurodivergent people avoid healthcare altogether. It becomes easier to avoid appointments than to face anxiety, shame, and financial penalties. I don't believe this is about bad intent, but it reflects a system that prioritizes policies and revenue over patient-centered care and basic compassion. After more than a decade as a loyal patient, and bringing multiple family members to this practice, I expected more understanding and professionalism. Because of this experience, I will be moving my care, along with my family's care, to a different provider. I hope this practice reflects on how it communicates with and supports patients, especially those with anxiety, autism, or other neurodivergent needs. No patient should be made to feel this way while seeking care

    I moved over to Pecan Park Family Dentistry a couple of years ago after my dentist closed her…read morepractice and started working here. Earlier this year, my dentist decided to take a break from work but I continued to stay at PPFD because the service was good. The office is bright and welcoming. The dental staff is friendly and good at their job. When I switched jobs and insurance, it was a breeze to for the office manager to change out my info. They don't try to upsell you and are honest with the work they're doing.

    This was my first visit, but I've heard amazing stories about Dr. Baker for years from my wife, who…read moreworks for him--and now I understand why patients drive over 100 miles just to come back. I knew he's a man of integrity who always puts the patient's best interest first. But I think it's really his patient care that sets him apart. I hadn't had a cavity in years, but this time I needed a filling. Dr. Baker was amazing at setting expectations and explaining every step of the process. And I didn't know it was possible to not feel any pain or soreness for a filling--not even during the injection or any part of the treatment. He was that gentle. I truly can't recommend him more.

    Dr. Baker was recommended to us by our orthodontist 3 years ago. Yes, this is backwards, but we…read moregrew tired of our previous dentists who tried to up-sell us at each visit. Since we appreciate our orthodontist, we asked him for a recommendation. If you're tired of dentists telling you that you need a cap (I was actually told I needed one 5 years ago and I still don't need one) or other unnecessary work, then switch to Dr. Baker. He and his staff are a no-nonsense type of practice. They take care of exactly what you need without the added push to spend more money. During this pandemic we're watching our expenses even more closely and making sure we're ready for the long haul. Thanks Dr. Baker and staff for taking care of our entire family!
