Here with another update. My son had to have some fillings done and unfortunately reacted poorly to…read morethe in office liquid sedation. Dr. Braxton was able to do 2 fillings and then had to stop the procedure and recommended we finish the rest at the hospital under general anesthesia. As you can imagine, my anxiety was through the roof thinking about this. They got me my total and said it was due before the procedure in 2 months. So, the day came when we brought my 3 year old to St. Mary's for the fillings. Dr. Braxton was about 5 hours late. We were told to be there at 8am, and they did not start on Jalen until after 1. He couldn't eat the entire time. I was worried about him getting hungry or restless and I hadn't accounted for having to pump for my infant, so this significant delay really had a negative impact on our experience. We never got any updates from her. I went up to the secretary of the surgical area and all she told me was that "Dr. Braxton was behind". No approximate timing or anything. When the time came to take him back, they did a good job of making sure we were comfortable and checking him over. Dr. Braxton came in briefly beforehand to talk to us, and then off he went. Here's why I'm taking off 2 stars. After Jalen came out of anesthesia, he had a horrible, croupy cough. The nurses took care of him and gave him a treatment, but we were still sent home after one nurse mentioned "oh yeah, he was a little congested going into surgery". We ended up at the ER the very next night because of his cough and breathing. Turns out he had a bad case of croup. I want to know... 1) Why wasn't this detected before surgery? 2) If the nurse noticed he was congested, why did Dr. Braxton follow through with it? 3) Why didn't we receive updates while waiting that insane amount of time before surgery? I just have so many questions. And, a lot of this probably wasn't Toothbeary's fault, but some of it I feel like they could have handled better, like the communication and timing. Although pediatric dentists have nice touches for kids, I think I may just start bringing him to our regular practice to make life a bit easier after this mixed bag of an experience.
