After having been to a true Frankenstein dentist, Dr. Cardenas has been a breeze. The office staff are all very lovely and the dentist's demeanor is always pleasant. I have somewhat fragile teeth so I have had several fillings done by him and he always calms my fears of the worst. Never patronizing, just reassuring. He takes the time to figure out the best solution and filling type before starting but I will note that I do find myself having to ask him what he will be doing. But no matter how many questions I ask, even when I've asked him why he'll be doing something one way and not another, he always answers the questions satisfactorily. All I know is that I've always had a bit of fear of the dentist but I have never felt pain or discomfort during a visit with him. My husband and I have both been seeing Dr. Cardenas for a few years now and I find their prices to be exactly comparable to other dentists and their office hours are very accommodating with evening and Saturday appointment times.

It is now unbearable Office manager needs major attitude adjustment. She's rude she's ignorant. She overtalks you. She yells she passes on bad office policies on to patients. I'm sure I'm not the only one who left this practice. I love Dentist Barber. Time for new dentist

I am sure this dentist would have been fine - if I was ever able to keep my appointment. I made two…read more"appointments" with this place, and both times I was removed from the schedule. The first time I made my appointment online and I even called them to confirm. I then arrived for my "appointment" only to be informed that I was discarded from the schedule because I did not answer their "phone call" which I never got in the first place. I figured mistakes happen, so I made another "appointment" for June 2nd @ 9:00 am. I even stayed, and filled out all of my insurance info since I was a new patient. Two weeks went by, and silly me did not call to confirm/double check with them because I figured I was physically there and filled out all of my information. Additionally, there was no phone call from them either to confirm. I bet you can guess what happened next. I arrived to find that I was not on the schedule. They tried to offer me another appointment for September - a whole three months away. I just told them to forget it I will go somewhere else. Finally, I'd like to thank Friends and Family Dental for wasting my time. Keep up the great work! What a joke.

No doctor should utter these words after being asked questions:…read more "We don't know what you do for a living, but we don't have time to answer all your questions." That was what this dentist said to my husband today. We've never been made to feel so guilty for asking questions about our treatment. After several treatments over the last three months, my husband and I are taking our business elsewhere. This dentist has no bedside manner. She might be good at what she does, as far as her dental work goes, but her insensitivity to other human beings overrides whatever skill she may have as a dentist. I'm not sure why other reviewers mentioned that they will work with your financial situation - we've had numerous treatments that she said needed to be done right away (?) and once our insurance ran out, they were not willing to work out a payment plan. Doctor seems rushed - in both my visits, I ended up asking the assistant/hygienist my questions, because the doctor was already out of the room and barely acknowledged me. (But I did get to hear her conversation with her assistant all about her mother and her nursing home while I was convulsing from the pain.) The office staff was nice and helpful, but I felt so uncomfortable with this dentist. I left almost in tears last week. Unless you have full availability during 9-4 hours, it will be hard to get an appointment here and it's really not worth that wait. We found another dentist already that will be taking us tomorrow in the evening hours. (Ricardo Burdiel in Cranston) This doctor seriously needs to work on her communication skills. And not be rude to her patients for asking questions.

But if you pay for dental insurance, there's no excuse. So, I make an effort to visit the dentist regularly to avoid future complications. As I mentioned, I hate taking time to go to the dentist. But, every time I've visited, it's been quick in-and-out. Their hours are convenient (yay for later appointments to fit my teacher schedule!) Dr. Renaud is incredibly professional yet kind. All staff, from receptionists to dental hygienists, have been helpful, efficient, and super friendly. Their office is clean and cozy. I'd recommend coming here even if you don't live in Riverside because it's next to a delicious Italian deli. And, easy in-and-out parking. So go get those pearly-whites cleaned!

Unfortunately, while they do complete the paperwork with insurance companies, they are not "providers" with any insurance companies and therefore don't accept what the insurance companies allow. This leaves the patient to pick up the balance of what the insurance won't cover. Now that my husband and I are retired and will be living on a fixed income, we thought it best to switch to a "provider' dentist who accepts the payment the insurance company allows. As I said, love the practice, but can no longer afford to pay for services that are fully covered somewhere else. I give the Rawlinsons four stars for this reason.

I left his office calm, collected, and confident - feelings I never thought I would experience after visiting a dentist! Dr. K. even spent time chatting with me about the stock market which is always a welcome distraction. He is a brilliant man and I am so grateful he decided to stay in his home state so that the Ocean state has the most talented and skilled dentist in the country. You are appreciated, Dr. K.!

Over the years I came to appreciate that reliability, and Dr. Barr was always a great professional. I should have written a five-star review a long time ago, not that the office would have needed it. The practice was sold recently to someone called Katherine Burton, who I've never seen. I have seen one of the other Dentists there, who is young and eager and seems knowledgeable. I do find the bedside manner not quite filling Dr. Barr's shoes, although I suppose that's something that comes with time. Other things have changed, too: the front desk staff, who I always liked, and I've had to trundle out to the other office in North Prov a few times because they couldn't reschedule me on South Main. None of which is a deal-killer, and I guess if I walked in the door today I wouldn't think much of it, but, I don't know, it's just the way my trust in the practice has been lowered just a bit that feels uncomfortable, somehow.
