I got a fast appointment and excellent service. The dentist and his assistant made we feel very relaxed and comfortable. Dr. G. has such a funny personality which made it even better.I had no pain, swelling, or any discomfort at all afterwards. It was a pretty pleasant experience for a tooth extraction. I would definitely recommend this office.

Dishonest and Disingenuous!!! I was quoted a rate of $575 for my son's tooth extraction, including…read moreX-rays and a consultation. I agreed and brought my son in the very next day. Not having dental insurance, I was paying out of pocket. Upon arriving, they examined him, took X-rays and while doing so asked me if I wanted to see "the estimate." I thought it was a strange question as they previously conveyed the price, but I said "sure." Upon examining the estimate, as four staff members looked on (stared) as I did so, I thought that was in itself curious. Then I learned why. To my surprise the quote was over $1000.00 --as they labeled it a "difficult" extraction. When I questioned what made it over $400 worth of difficult, they had no answers. When I pressed why it wasn't $650.00 difficult or $750 difficult or any variation thereof, they looked as puzzled and confused as I was. I promptly collected my son and left -- having lost all faith and trust in them. What a shame!!! Oh, they did of course insist I pay them $225.00 for the consult and X-rays. I wrote the check unwillingly and asked that they forward the X-rays to my long time dentist-- who does not do oral surgery. I won't be going back to this place, and I suggest you save yourself a trip as well...

I came to this dental office for a routine cleaning, which is fully covered under my MetLife PPO…read moreplan. I was never told that anything was wrong with my gums, nor was I informed of any underlying gum disease or condition that would require a deep cleaning. No one explained that I would be receiving anything other than the routine cleaning I scheduled. Instead, I was handed paperwork to sign without any explanation of why a different procedure was necessary. I was never shown any notes, X‑rays, periodontal measurements, or evidence that a deep cleaning was medically required. After the appointment, I was charged $250 for a deep cleaning I did not knowingly consent to. When I later contacted my insurance company, they confirmed that routine cleanings are covered and that I should have been eligible for one. This directly contradicted what the office told me. I called the office afterward to ask for clarification and a refund. The "manager" told me that the dentist's notes supposedly indicated a need for a deep cleaning -- but again, I was NEVER shown these notes during my visit, nor was anything explained to me verbally at the time. I had no opportunity to understand or agree to the treatment they chose to perform. Patients deserve transparency, informed consent, and honest communication. None of that happened here. I'm sharing this so others know to ask questions and insist on clear explanations before agreeing to any dental procedure.

If I could leave 0 stars, I would. I set up a cleaning about a week ago but a few days ago, the…read morebracket for my bottom braces broke which meant I needed to also visit my orthodontist immediately. The only time my ortho was able to see me was an hour after my scheduled cleaning. I called Great Expressions to inform them of this predicament to which they told me to try to come a bit earlier than my appointment - they were fully booked but would try to accommodate. Cool. I informed my ortho I may be 5 minutes late. Upon arrival, I find myself waiting past my scheduled cleaning appointment and go to the front desk to let them know I really can't stay because of my ortho appointment which was honestly much more important. Fran, the woman at the front desk, was SO rude about the entire encounter. I was informed before I arrived that my appointment would take 50 minutes so I knew that if I was seen at that point, I would be really late for my other appointment. I tell her this to which she replies, "well she [i assume my hygienist] is going to be a few minutes." I let her know I can't wait those few minutes to which she responds, "she put aside this hour for you so now she's going to be doing nothing." Not sure how that's my problem at all. I tell her I timed both appointments so that I could make both of them but this delay messes that up. At this point, all customer service goes out the window and Fran tells me she'd prefer if I stayed. Great to know what you prefer Fran, but it doesn't work that way. I ask her to possibly schedule me another appointment where she tells me the next available date is June 14th. Weird because when I called to make my original appointment, they had a bunch of spots open for next week. Great Expressions is right next to my parents' house so I stop by to inform my dad about the encounter. He calls and speaks to Fran to which she was extremely rude to my very nice father - I'll admit I wasn't being the nicest but my dad was trying to be super accommodating and unbiased and Fran was simply being (for lack of a better description) a complete asshole. My dad explained how I couldn't stick around for the 5 minutes they were running late and Fran has the nerve to say "5 minutes isn't running late" ??? Weird. Even 1 minute is still running late! This isn't the first time my family has had an issue with this office being timely. My mom also walked out when she went for a cleaning during her lunch break and they had her waiting too long. My mind is blown at how rude Fran was. Like literally no ounce of helpfulness. I understand having a bad day but I also work in customer service and know to leave whatever outside issues you may have, at the door. I've always tried to refrain from bad reviews but this experience was so awful, I had to share and warn others.
