Hands down of all the appointments a person has to make, the dental appointment ranks right up…read morethere as least desirable. So for me, finding a good dentist means finding one that doesn't make you feel like you have a "dental" appointment. That's been my experience with Pioneer Peak. I use to worry about having anything done to my teeth because I never knew if the procedure would be painful or not... always seemed to be hit and miss in the past if the dentist would leave me with a mouth full of pain afterwards. After having everything dental from cleaning to a rather large tooth extraction by Dr Paden over the years, I can honestly say I've never come away in pain or dissatisfied with the results. Finally; my teeth are very sensitive and in the past I've had poor luck finding a dentist that knows how to properly numb the area fully, until I started coming here. Dr Paden numbs the area in such a way I've honestly never felt a needle. I'm always numb enough that I feel absolutely comfortable with having my teeth worked on. If I happen to feel any discomfort I just let them know and they are willing to apply more if needed. They take health insurance and file all the paperwork for me which I really like as it makes it easy to deal with the paperwork. If you call and ask, I'm sure they have other accommodations for people without insurance - the staff is always good about answering questions!

One of the things that has really impressed me is the level of investment Dr. Burtch places in his staff. They are learned and capable.

When you have questions, you receive direct, pragmatic advice with no lecturing. This practice is run very well.

If you want the front desk staff to continuously talk over you, call Valley Neighborhood Dental…read more Lori to be specific, is a woman will go out of her way to make sure that your out of pocket charge is higher that they advertise. The "new patient special" which includes a cleaning and X-rays was done to me and I was charged for the X-rays without them being performed. My $447 bill was completely out of pocket (which the office said they checked with my insurance beforehand) and included a $75 "nutrition counseling". Was that where he asked how many soft drinks I partake in a week? Seems like insurance fraud to me. Nonetheless if you want Lori to charge you for the full bill out of pocket I would highly recommend going to this practice. Lost me as a patient as I was railroaded in conversation and no have a over $500 bill to pay myself
