This is on top of the fact that his work, his demeanor and his staff were already 5 star. If you need a root canal tell your dentist to send you to Dr. Bergman.

I needed a root canal and had $2,000 in my dental insurance account. Before the work was started I…read moreasked the front office to verify my coverage which I observed her do while I was in the waiting room. I was handed back my card and told my coverage was verified. As they stated that payment was needed before the root canal was performed, I was told to put it on a credit card and get reimbursement from my insurance. I then proceeded to have the work done. As the reimbursement did not arrive after a considerable amount of time I contacted Dr. Bergmans office to see if they had received the payment. I was then informed that they do not take any insurance in their practice, it's cash only. I was stunned and asked why they didn't inform me of this at the time when I was asking for insurance verification prior to the procedure as I made it quite clear that I intended to use my funds from my plan. I would have gone elsewhere of course. The front office receptionist simply continued to state that they didn't accept any insurance and that was that. Now I understood why they insisted I put it on a credit card. A few days later I called the office and asked to speak to Dr Bergman. I explained what had transpired and asked that he would in the very least refund a portion of my $2,000. He refused. I'm a senior living on social security and this was an incredible financial crisis for me. I don't have any complaints regarding the work done but feel I was blatantly mislead and lied to for my business. Shame on Dr. Bergman. It's hard to imagine that this office is so greedy and heartless.

I went to the Hendersonville office on Mon Aug 10, at 8am, and they were able to schedule a same-day appointment for 1:30pm! I had X-rays and a consultation, which confirmed I needed 2 teeth pulled, even though only one was causing pain. The dentist called in a prescription for antibiotics and said to start taking them immediately. I was scheduled for Thur Aug 13 at 8:20am to have both teeth removed. I called on Tuesday, because my gums and jaw were swollen. They called me later on Tuesday, to see if the pain and swelling was better. Wednesday, they called to check on me, and confirm my Thursday appointment. Everyone in the office made me feel cared for, and confident in the procedure. I had my teeth fragments removed in the Asheville office, under local anesthesia. (Needle to inject numbing medication, near the gums, and I was awake for the procedure). Julie assisted Dr. Hayes, and I felt calm, and as comfortable as I could be during the extraction. Before the procedure, I was given instructions about how to care for my mouth after the extraction. Julie went over them step by step, and I had paperwork with the instructions. The actual extraction took five minutes, since I only had fragments of broken teeth - root tips, as Dr. Hayes called them. The dentist called me at 4:30pm on Thursday, to check on me. Everyone was kind, caring, professional, and really made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I spoke to Melody, Tracy, and I can't remember who else. I forgot I needed a doctor's note for work, and was still in the parking lot. I called to ask if they could write a note for me, and Bailey brought the note out to my car! I highly recommend Rockcliff Oral Surgery. Their knowledge and level of care is excellent, from start to finish.

Today's surgery was a huge accomplishment for me and will set a better tone for future medical procedures. My initial consultation with Dr. Hussain went very well. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and I left feeling confident enough to schedule my surgery. On surgery day I was extremely nervous, extremely. Off the bat the receptionists calmed my nerves with their sweet smiles and affirmations. The technician/surgeons assistant, Emily guided me to the surgery room and got me all set up.She described every step which helps so much so that I knew what to expect. She was very kind and thoughtful. She is great at her job and I wish her the best in her medical career. A few other people passed through who very also very kind and helped to lighten the mood. Dr. Hussain came in to start surgery and talked me through things to help calm me. Before you know it I was knocked out and didn't even know it. Emily rolled me out to our car and now I am home recovering. I feel great and am going to take all the recommended steps to recover well. I hope this helps anyone with anxiety around this sort of thing. The staff and doctors are wonderful. Thank you. I forgot to mention the environment is very homey, comfortable, welcoming and smells clean and wonderful which always helps!

I called multiple locations and no one would accept my insurance , but more importantly no one could get me in for an appointment today. As soon as Emily answered the phone at Asheville dental , I knew my luck was changing . She was so sweet and sympathetic. She made sure to explain everything to me including costs, since my insurance is no good in North Carolina and she got me in for an appointment in the afternoon. They sent me a text with all the information and a link to my paperwork so I could fill everything out before I arrived. I made sure to get there early and the offices are warm and welcoming. I gave my name in the front and they checked me in. I was called back right at my appointment time. I explained my situation and Makayla was patient and understanding. She checked my teeth and took an x-ray and made sure to verify the cost with me. Dr. Powell came in to examine me and he was absolutely wonderful. He explained the issue and provided me with lots of options . He answered all of my questions and I left feeling super hopeful and incredibly relieved. Thank you to Emily and Makayla and Dr. Powell! I hope you know what a difference you made in my life today.

There are several issues with this place. I'll elaborate. This place talked with my mom for a while…read moreon the phone, and my mom repeatedly said I have no dental insurance in their talk of several minutes. I shortly after get a text message to bring in my insurance card. That's quite unprofessional to not make notes of someone, and just giving them a generic response, which wouldn't be the first time they are inattentive either. I addressed to the nurse and Dasher that I'm vegan, which is blatantly disregarded later on, as I'll get to that soon. Also, my mom thought the plants in there were real, but I knew they were fake, and even the nurse said they're fake. Real plants help with oxygen, creativity, and other benefits. Their plants are as fake as their care. Dasher doesn't know too much flouride harms the teeth, known as fluorosis, as there's even a word for it, and thinks just spitting out fluoride means it's safe, even though it does absorb into the mouth and skin, like plenty of other things. I'm not totally against flouride either. 98% of West Europe doesn't use fluoride, and they generally have far better teeth than here in infamous bad teeth, and generally awful health America. Denmark officially has the best teeth in the world, according to reports. Japan has far better teeth, especially with NASA giving them nano-hydroxyapatite, which Dasher says is inferior to flouride, even though peer-reviewed studies say it's the same strength or better for teeth. So, the education there is pretty bad. At least Japan, among other advances in health and intelligence over America, is very close to regrowing teeth with stem cells, probably by 2025, several reports say. It's blatantly better to have brand-new teeth than none or fillings. Even after those two issues, I still was willing to go back there. However, the issue with veganism occurs, and this is problematic for anyone with allergies, or any religion, which a dentist place could be used for. I'm prescribed antibiotics, which I really didn't want since loads of peer-reviewed studies of my Russian roots, American studies, and so forth point to garlic being a far better antibiotic than synthetic antibiotics, since it doesn't kill good bacteria, and doesn't build tolerance, unlike synthetic ones (which about 80% of synthetic ones go towards animal agriculture). My mom had her first son pick it up. We trusted this office to handle the appropriate antibiotics, which turned out to be in poor outcome of a half-ass dentist office. The pharmacy won't take back an unopened bag and unopened bottle of pills. I addressed my concerns to the office in two emails. One email was on July 28th, addressing fluorosis, and the other info of Denmark, and so forth. I provided loads of screenshots to validate my claims. It was actually a favor to them so they're aware. No thank you. No reply. No call. No text. August 1st, I email them about the prescription, and the severity of how it can impact people of allergies, religions, and vegans. No reply. I texted them, too. September 11th (wow, a day I witnessed the news of in Florida in my middle school days, and I was in a plane to NJ and back to Florida, seeing the towers only from above) they sent a letter without any reimbursement, without any apology, and says we cannot see you unless an emergency, along with other nonsense. I don't want them to harass me with letters. $6+ to send me a letter. They won't even send emails. Ironically, again, their email at the bottom of the silly letter. It takes them over a month to get back to me. You want to talk about incompetent, and narcissistic of an office. I will be leaving reviews with evidence on various parts of online. I let the oral surgeon he recommended know again like last time. Incompetent and uncaring office. It's good that this place isn't the only place around for dental in Arden/Asheville.
