Endodontists are much faster at root canals and when you have Copd and myalgia fast is very helpful. It took her 3 appointments and a total of 8 hours (4,then 2 then 2) to complete these procedures. Also she couldn't keep me numb, as I kept telling her, and kept jabbing me in the roof of my mouth which was very painful. By the end of the 3rd one I could barely get my twisted body out of the chair or walk. Then my oxygen started dropping and I was having sharp pains when breathing from ribs being out of place and an extremely tight diaphragm. As a result I landed in the ER, then hospital for over 2 days and had to be on oxygen. Needless to say, it was all very anxiety producing, confirmed by the doctor as contributing to the episode. If you are considering a dentist...I WOULD KEEP LOOKING.

Dr. Ukena is not only an excellent provider, he is also a wonderful, kind human being. Having trouble finding reliable dental care in Florida, I contacted Dr. Ukena because I was at a loss of what to do with my teeth. I had moved from SGF 5 years previously but needed a trustworthy, fair, intelligent provider and phoned Dr. Ukena to see if he would do a consult. He immediately asked for my previous records for review, discussed a potential plan with me over the phone and truly relieved my stress. I made the trip to see Dr. Ukena and his staff who took care of absolutely EVERYTHING including scheduling 2 additional appointments (Pam, Jessica, Tina & Mel - thank you). My old trusty grill has been given new life again. I spent just under a week coming from Florida to Dr. Ukena and Mel for their excellent care and service. I would do it again tomorrow too. The care Dr. Ukena & Mel provide is beyond exceptional. Never did I ever think I could have such an enjoyable time at the dentist's office... Dr Ukena is MORE than the gold standard for dental care and consider myself fortunate enough to be in his care. Thank you Dr. Ukena for being a wonderful, kind human being and providing top quality dental care for patients everywhere.

She came out almost in tears and I could tell right away something was wrong. She said the woman who cleaned her teeth was rough and the dentist who came in frightened her (her words were "she was like a mob boss"). The dentist didn't come out to let me know anything (if she did or didn't have any cavities, any additional preventative care needed, if my daughter needed to be doing anything different, if she had good dental health, etc..) which is what their previous dentist always did. When we got home she said it felt like there was cement on her teeth and I noticed some white stuff caked on. It seems like they overbook and I'm guessing they only do 1 cleaning at a time based on the waiting times I saw. On a positive note, the front desk people were very friendly.

I was very disappointed with my recent experience. After expressing my concern that my appointment…read morehad been moved to a different dentist without any advance notice, the office chose to terminate the doctor-patient relationship. I later learned that Dr. Jacoby had reduced his schedule to only two days a week. Rather than notifying patients and allowing them to decide whether to keep their appointment with another provider or wait to see their chosen dentist, the office simply reassigned appointments. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect advance notice so patients can make an informed decision about their care. it's probably for the best, as the quality of the office seems to have declined over the past few years. Staff turnover appears to be high, and it shows. At my most recent appointment, the team came in to check my Invisalign progress to determine whether I was ready to switch to nighttime wear--despite the fact that I had completed Invisalign treatment years ago. During the same visit, they polished my teeth before performing the cleaning because of staffing shortages, which was unusual and left me questioning the overall organization of the practice. Unfortunately, this experience taught me that communication, continuity of care, and attention to detail are no longer priorities at this office.

Stopped by to pay it with my Blue Cross debit card and mentioned to my wife I'd be ok paying it since there was $70 on the card. This is where things went wrong. I'm sure the gal heard me say $70 and so that's what she punched in. Later checked with Blue Cross and they confirmed we had been charged $70. Went back to the office and they said that they had no records of billing or payments and nothing could be done. No records? A business lives on records! Of course I'd thrown the bill away by then. We've now established with a different dentist in town. I'm not saying anyone did anything intentional but the inability to fix the problem is beyond belief. If you love Dr. Budd I can see why, just watch your dealings with the office very, very closely.

This was one of the worst doctors I have ever been to. He was very arrogant (I don't understand…read morewhy), and acted like he just didn't have the time of day for you. He saw me for less than 4 minutes then said he was going to see about scheduling a test and never came back. The worst about the whole visit was he told the nurse to not even bother scheduling a follow up until the CT results came in which would take 10 days (on top of however long it was going to take to schedule the CT). When you are in pain waiting 10 days is bad enough but then to have to wait more til they can get you in is even worse, especially when the opportunity was there. Please don't waste your time or your insurance money on this piece of work! NO STARS!!!!!!

My experience was very different then the other review. Dr. Lea was very nice & took his time…read moreaddressing my concerns. My main concern was with recent weight gain. He provided all the medical recommendations and suggested seeing a dietician. Then he implemented some common sense, something most doctors don't do. Rather than prescribing some Rx (which I was kind of looking for) he grabbed my attention about the health risks of gaining more weight & sternly told me to eat less and move more. May seem simple but the medical fact is, nothing is more effective than following that advice. I guess it was its simplicity that got through to me. Since my visit I quit dieting and quit struggling with the whole process. I have eaten less and moved more to the tune of 33 pounds lost in two months. I appreciate the fact he is not a trigger happy script slinger and took the time & care to address my concerns in a manner that was truly best for me. As far as doctors being in a constant rush, that is not going to change as long as we have capitalistic medicine. It can't be just about healing you. It has to be about healing you at a profit. They have to meet their minimum number of patients every day or figure out how to pay 3/4 million dollars in student loans as a waiter. It is that simple. If you think that your health should trump business concerns then figure out a way to make it work & sell it to Washington.
