Nice facility, but terrible ethics. If you have platinum-tier insurance and don't mind surprise…read morebills, this place is fine. However, if you are self-pay or have specific coverage limits, stay away. I was extremely clear with this office multiple times about my coverage. I told them exactly which X-rays my insurance would pay for and explicitly instructed them not to perform any that weren't covered. They ignored me, performed the unauthorized X-rays anyway, and then sent me a bill for the difference. When I called to contest the charges, their response was: "We don't let insurance dictate our care." That is a convenient excuse to ignore a patient's informed consent regarding their own finances. The office also lacks any personal touch. The staff is so large and the turnover must be so high that you rarely see the same person twice. It's always someone new who has barely read your notes and has no idea what you've previously requested.

I used to love this place. I took my kids here since they were elementary and now they are in…read morehighschool and family dentistry lied to us saying they would call us to set up an appointment because there is a shortage of dental assistants??? Not hearing this anywhere else. And instead of reaching out to us letting us know they no longer accept our insurance and seeing if other arrangements could be made they back handed dropped us by telling our insurance. Also we have been going there for over I believe 10 years you think they could grandfather us in with their new policy or at least reach out to us personally. I was very sad and disappointed on how this was handled. I don't appreciate being lied to. Now I have to rush and try and find a new office for my family.

They have even stayed past 5:30pm to complete my dental appointments. The staff are all very friendly. My last procedure was to have a wisdom tooth cut out. It is really nice to know I can go to my regular dentist to have them take care of my problems with my teeth instead of being forced to go other places like an oral surgeon.

I went to them for 10 years thinking they knew what they were doing. Now after moving across the…read morecountry to Arizona and finding one of the top rated dentists in Phoenix I have discovered that they did not. I repeatedly asked them to check my pockets for the depth every time I had my teeth cleaned and they flat out refused, having had periodontal disease in the past (which they knew about). I know have to have deep scaling under the gums done, which even with insurance is costing me over $1000.00. Also, Dr. Rabedeaux totally missed that my back upper molar with a silver filling in it was deteriorating and cracking, I just saw him in December of 2018. I now have the additional expense of at the least a crown, which after insurance is over $500.00, and worse case scenario will be a root canal. I know you people in Newton are limited in choice of dentist, but drive to Des Moines or suffer my fate. Dr. Rabedeaux you should be ashamed of yourself.
