We have always been treated with respect and kindness. We have been given grace when we forgot to bring the correct payment card for co-pays.

I'm sorry these people had bad experiences but I can't give this place anything but a 5.

New to the area and my husband needed an appointment quickly for a cracked filling. Getting an…read moreappointment in 4 days should have been a red flag. Anyway, after the appointment, not quite sure what happened but my husband said he would never go back. Fast forward a few weeks and we got a bill from insurance saying they wouldn't pay because full x-rays had already been done within the previous 12 months. When I called the office to ask if they had checked with my husbands previous dentist for records their answer was....getting records to them was our responsibility. I stated they were the professions and we were the clients, they should have called. Her answer, and I quote "I have over 3,000 patients. I can't keep track of everyone's records." If you are looking for a new dentist move on. Extremely unprofessional.

My bridge fell out and every other local dentist was booked a month out, but Lewes Dental had…read moreopenings the next day. Then I found out why: it took them three tries to take impressions of my teeth, and removing each molding hurt more than the previous try. It felt like my teeth were literally going to rip out of my mouth. When I arrived for my next appointment, Dr Tanannis realized he had sent the impression to the wrong lab. He had to send it back out to another lab, which took two more weeks. For the prices he charges, the pain of the impressions he screwed up, and the weeks it took to finally get the bridge, Dr Tananis and Lewes Dental weren't worth it. Found another, better dentist nearby.

My 81 year old mother went with a tooth ache, after xrays and $140.00 she was told to go to an…read moreEndodontist that they recommended for a root canal which she did, she was told she wouldn't need a crown. She was told to go back to this Dentist and get a permanent filling, when she called to make the appointment they wouldn't do the filling until she got another xray and exam then make another appointment for the filling. If they don't trust the Endodontist they recommended to do the root canal correctly why do they recommend that Endodontist. She told them she just wanted the filling, when she went in they told her she needed a crown. Told her if they only do a filling it would not be done right. I worked for a Dentist and I know an office that's out for the money. They should be ashamed of themselves taking advantage of an elderly woman.

When I made an appointment with this practice, they confirmed that they were in-network with my…read moreinsurance plan. I also verified with my insurance plan that the practice was in-network. After the appointment and paying a $95 consultation fee, I was provided a treatment plan with an out-of-network estimate. I asked for clarification and was told that they had since left the network of my insurance plan. They said they called patients to inform them of this change but I "fell through the cracks." Nobody told me of this change of network status prior to the appointment, despite the practice having a legal obligation under HIPAA to notify patients of network changes. The out-of-network rate this practice charges is more than double the in-network rate with my insurance plan (based on the CPT code). Rather than pay hundreds of extra dollars out-of-pocket, I cancelled my appointment and made an appointment with an in-network provider. I understand that mistakes happen. But whether intentional or not, the practice did a bait-and-switch: advertised themselves as in-network then switched to out-of-network and never said anything. I asked the practice to either mail or email me a copy of the referral note I gave them during the consultation, since I will need this for my new appointment with an in-network provider. Moreover, I am legally entitled to this information as part of my medical record. As of writing this review, they have failed to return the referral to me. I also asked the practice to refund the $95 consultation fee. The practice refused claiming "services were rendered" taking zero accountability for their mistake. Kristen, the office manager, expressed inhumane disregard for the money and time (half day off work, driving ~3 hours roundtrip, spending ~2 hours at the office) their incompetence cost me. She claimed they had "no legal obligation" to refund me or to have informed me of their change in network status. While HIPAA may disagree, focusing solely on legal obligations is besides the point... any self-respecting business would own up to the error. But this is not a self-respecting business, and they have trained their staff to operate as such. Finally, during the actual appointment, Dr. Ditty was extremely unprofessional. He mocked my dentist for "writing a novel" in the referral note. While I do not have a copy of the referral note (the practice has still failed to return it to me), I recall it being at most ~4 sentences in length. If Dr. Ditty is annoyed at having to read ~4 sentences from a colleague about your health, then what level of attention is he actually willing to provide to your medical care? Moreover, shouldn't a doctor encourage more details in a referral, to help them understand the problem? If Dr. Ditty does not respect his colleagues, then he certainly will not respect you as a patient. Avoid this practice. It is not worth it.

As she has gotten older she has had issues with her gums so she visits a periodontist every other visit. She went to Jeffrey Bartoshesky's office in Laurel. She had her teeth cleaned, they took four x-rays and the doctor looked at her mouth for a very short time. She received the bill. It was $330. She does not have insurance. The bill was devastating to our budget. I called the office asking if there was anything that could be done and they told me 'that is what the procedures cost'. I told them it was hard on our budget, but the manager of the office told me my wife should have said something when she was there. My wife told them she had no insurance and asked if they had any discounts. They told her no but they had not told her the total price at that time. The manager stated my wife and been there before so she should have known the price. All we were asking for was a small discount, the manger basically told us tough, that was the price. I was a patient at Bartoshesky's until he stopped taking my insurance. It is sad when professional takes advantage of older people. There was no fillings or work done other than a cleaning. $330 is very high and hard on fixed income people!
