After an x-ray revealed infection...she told me that I need a root canal. But, those take 2 visits!

The procedure didnt feel rushed or painful and I left for my trip feeling amazing! Thanks Dr Nekia and the amazing SCD team!!!!

I HAVE NEVER EVER! Red flags began before the initial…read moreappointment: staff call prior to initial appt to tell me medical insurance provider has the wrong birthdate (not true); day of initial visit discuss dental coinsurance is 20%, so why attempt to charge and collect more than 50% of estimated charges for regular cleaning before being seen? Pre-pay almost $200 before being seen for 1st visit, then after seeing patient suddenly say initial charge already paid doesn't include full-series xrays and that requires additional $75+!!! Excuse given that "notes say patient doesn't have full set of teeth, and because she has more teeth they NOW have to take full xray panel" What competent provider doesn't take full xrays at initial visit??? And when asked where'd the note come from saying the patient didn't have full set of teeth, they can't say! I'm told the practice is out of network for all insurance providers and you do not file any dental insurance claims directly, I must submit claims for dental insurance reimbursement - if that's the case why require all the insurance information 24 hours prior to the appointment and call insurance companies for pre-authorizations? A $25 deposit for next visit is charged at initial visit (prior to seeing dentist/hygenist) and I NOW fully understand why!!! Anyone with good sense visits once and NEVER comes back or keeps the follow up appt!!! New patient intake forms submitted more than 24 hours before initial appt are very thorough and asked extensive medical questions including all medications, but questioned for list of medications during exam as if that information is missing!? After initial exam and cleaning, an attempt for additional treatment requested a 25% deposit payment due when scheduling appointment with balance due at appointment!!! The money-grubbing is necessary because the quality of care and customer service will NEVER garner this practice repeat business or genuine referrals!!!!

THEY ARE NOT GOING TO ACCEPT YOUR SCAN FROM OTHER CLINICS. THEY SAY THEY DO, BUT THEY WON'T. Even…read moreif it means exposing you to another X-ray within a short period. My experience with this clinic made me seriously question the integrity of some medical providers. I grew up in a family full of medical providers, so I've always had a lot of respect for them. But being told they "can't read" my scan files and that I needed to pay $450 for another CBCT scan was shocking. I had already taken the scan at another oral surgery clinic that turned out to be out-of-network. That's why I looked for an in-network doctor and ended up here. Before my first appointment, they asked me to bring the scan files. I even asked if there was a specific format they needed because I work with image files and know compatibility can matter. They brushed it off and told me to just bring them. I arrived with the USB and waited almost an hour, only to be told they couldn't read files from USB and needed them on a CD. Sorry, but are we in 2005? They "kindly" offered to take a new scan for $250. I had taken the scan only a week earlier, so I refused. I had to reschedule and even bought a CD burner on Amazon because the original clinic didn't have one. Before my second appointment, I called again to ask about file formats and told them the other clinic had also emailed the files. I even asked if they could call the other clinic since both clinics use the same medical imaging software, which I found very odd. THEY NEVER CALLED THE OTHER CLINIC AND APPARENTLY NEVER CHECKED THE EMAIL. They just kept saying it should work if it's on a CD. So I returned with the CD. After all that effort, they STILL said they couldn't read the files. And now the price for a new scan was suddenly $450. When I got home, I downloaded a free medical imaging viewer and opened the files immediately with no issue. Yes, I -- someone with no experience opening this type of medical imaging format -- was able to open them. I ended up booking another oral surgeon down the street who simply allowed me to upload my existing scans. I still can't understand why this clinic handled things this way. It felt like they cared more about charging for another scan than actually helping patients. Also, thanks for delaying my treatment for weeks and for trying to make me take another X-ray only a few weeks after the first one.

She also made the reason i want the tooth removed seem like a joke, like i didn't know what i was talking about. I don't get that, it's my mouth, you're a dentist. Pull the tooth out. "Root canal teeth are more likely to break during extractions" Yes, any tooth can break during extraction though, that was an excuse. She even made sure to include in quotations on my referral that i wanted the tooth removed for "Convenience" - you don't know my life. If i have to get my wisdom tooth removed to have anything done to this molar, as someone with Anxiety & PTSD that's a far harder thing for me to come to terms with. a complete lack of respect from the Dr. She could of left it at, "Sorry, i just don't want to pull this tooth" and sent me on my way. Instead she had to make me feel like a child, who doesn't know what i'm talking about. The dental ASSISTANT was a joy though. Very friendly & kind, easy to talk too - & was understanding of my reasoning even if she didn't agree. Overall would not recommend this place if you're looking for a primary dentist.
