Dr Yip. although my first appointment was to be just a new patient visit, Dr Yup was willing to go ahead and get me all taken care of the same day. He created the best treatment plan for me to give me an amazing smile for life. instead of spending more money on a crown and implants he was able to give me back a beautiful smile with a bridge instead. it was more affordable and absolutely gorgeous. The amazing staff reviewed the treatment plan cost with me before the work was started and set me up on an affordable payment plan. During my second visit to have the bridge placed Angie went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable by addressing any pain and discomfort and offering me a drink and a blanket. Angie was positive and had a fun energy and a great laugh. with such professional staff I felt very well cared for and beyond satisfied with my incredibly beautiful smile that gave me in a week with two short visits. I am forever grateful and only trust my smile and my budget to Dr Yip and his amazing team. Thank you so much for giving me back my smile and my confidence to live my best life.

Update: Aspen customer service advised me that charging patients more than the insurance approved…read morepre-estimate is not company policy. I am sharing this in hopes of saving others time, stress, and money. I will admit that I did not behave appropriately during my final interaction with the office. I left upset and called Lacy a vulgar name in front of other patients. That was wrong, and I take responsibility for it. My opinion of how I was treated by her, however, has not changed. My concern is with the billing practices in this office. I previously worked in medical billing in a supervisory role, so I understand insurance contracts, allowable amounts, bundled charges, pre-estimates, and patient responsibility calculations. Several things about this situation raised serious concerns for me. I was told I needed to pay half of a $5,600 treatment plan up front for crown replacement work. That part was not the issue. The issue was that the office was not charging the insurance approved amount. Half down should have been approximately $1,309, yet I was asked to pay more than double that amount before treatment. When I contacted my insurance company, they advised me that billing above contracted allowable amounts may violate provider agreements. They also advised me they would be reviewing their relationship with this office. My insurance company attempted a three way call with the office to clarify the billing, but the office declined because they stated they were no longer willing to treat me. I simply wanted an explanation as to why the office was attempting to charge amounts that did not align with the insurance approved pre-estimate. Contracted insurance rates are not subjective. The office repeatedly stated they had called my insurance company with all procedure codes to provide accurate pricing. However, the insurance representative I spoke with stated there were no notes showing that such a call occurred. They did confirm that on 5/6/2026 coverage was verified, and the pre-estimate from Aspen was received that same day. According to my insurance company, the written pre-estimate overrides verbal benefit quotes. The pre-estimate reflected a patient responsibility of approximately $873 per crown including buildup. The office attempted to charge approximately $1,903 per tooth. The office also collected $236 for items I was later told were "no charge" items and that, to my knowledge, were not used during treatment. Communication with the office manager, Lacy, was extremely difficult. I was repeatedly interrupted and could not get a direct answer as to why the office was not honoring the insurance approved pre-estimate. At one point she also stated they had not yet received the pre-estimate from insurance, despite insurance later confirming otherwise. She repeatedly stated that "this is Aspen's policy," which Aspen customer service later told me was not true. By the end of the interaction, Lacy seemed oddly proud to lose a patient. As I walked out, she had a very smug expression, almost like she had handled this conversation many times before. I was surprised by the lack of professionalism during the financial portion of my experience. I encourage patients to carefully review treatment plans, pre-estimates, EOBs, and itemized charges before agreeing to large upfront payments at this office This says it all https://fox4kc.com/news/problem-solvers/more-patients-come-forward-after-fox4-investigation-into-chain-of-dental-practices/?fbclid=IwZnRzaAR7KSxleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAo2NjI4NTY4Mzc5AAEez9cS4eBlhO8FfvQlob-jmio-7IgcT56kbLtEo7QZpoviOfiCdaTRIeUg5kw_aem_w3E6CsAAPrq4sIRze_BEhQ

They have flexible hours and when I mentioned that I was interested in Invisalign, they took my insurance, found out that I was not covered and let me decide if I wanted it or not (I didn't).

I am recapping my experience with the dental office today. I would give them a below 0 score…read more This was the most unprofessional experience I have ever had with a dental office and dentist. The individuals at the front desk, seem nice and sweet when you first engage with them but the minute I questioned something to get clarification they immediately go into hyper sensitive mode and get very defensive to the point where the front desk person raised her voice at me I had to say, I am not looking to argue with you I am just telling you what you told me when I was in last week. Obviously they do not like for a potential client to ask questions about their services. They get defensive very quickly. Example with front desk: When I was in the office last week I asked the price of a 2 surface filling. The front desk person told me $150 then she said $185. I made an appointment and went in the following week to have the dentist Scott do a filling for me. After the dentist looked at my tooth he sends the front desk person in with the pricing and there was an additional $80 for a consultation fee. She did not tell me there would be an additional $80 for a consultation fee the previous week when I asked for pricing before I made an appointment. While sitting in the dental chair I told her that she did not share this with me the previous week when I was asking about the cost. She then said, well you should have automatically known that because we charged that fee the 2 times when you were here before. Those previous times were to look at a tooth to determine what could be done not to have a procedure done that day. I understand the fee for that. She raised her voice to me to where I had to say, I do not want to argue with you I am just explaining to you what I was told when I asked a specific question about the cost. She was immediately getting defensive. Example with the dentist: My experience is that he didn't want to listen to me explain about my situation he just wanted me to be quiet and open up my mouth. This was my first time I was actually going to have him do a procedure on me. It seemed like he was trying to put the fear in me by telling me the worst case scenario before he even examines the situation. He was in the room listening when I was explaining to the front desk person that she did not share with me about the $80 consultation fee added on to the cost to do the filling. Scott then starts telling me about all of his credentials and comparing it to if you were to use a medical facility you would have to see multiple people with those credentials. I am thinking to myself....Doesn't all dentist have those credentials..........not sure why he had to go into all of that to defend his $80 fee and then he starts telling me that he has an expensive piece of equipment in the back and the service person charges him a $50 fee as a trip fee which he doesn't like. For around 10 min. Here I am sitting in the dentist chair listening to the front desk person raise her voice to me saying that I should have assumed there was going to be the $80 fee even though she did not share that with me and the dentist going into a long speech about his credentials and hard his staff works....etc..... Extremely uncomfortable. This is the short version. We decided this was not the place for me to be. Then when I get home I realized the other front office desk person had not emailed me all of my X-rays so I called her to request to have that done. She accused me of calling her a liar when the only thing I said was that I did not see an email from her with the xrays. As I was searching through my emails for the date she said she sent them she immediately said, "I did send them to you and you Should apologize to me" She immediately got defensive. I was baffled that she would say something like that. By the way she sent one X-ray but not both of them. I think it was a blessing in disguise for this event to happen to me so I did not engage with them to be a client.
