    Great staff and the most pleasant dentist. He shoots it straight and explains everything. I don't feel manipulated like other offices.

    Rarely do I seek out ways to leave reviews but I had to do it for Dr. Franz. From the beginning,…read moreDr. Franz and his office were extremely accommodating to get me in when I had an acute problem (even over lunch) for a consultation. He and his staff took plenty of time to discuss what was going on and fully explained the treatment options. He was very open with these option and even with costs. He even recommended waiting for an upcoming insurance change for some needed minor work as it would save me money. During my procedure, he and his staff were attentive to any needs I had and checked frequently to make sure I wasn't having discomfort (I didn't have any pain, he does a great block). He also explained each step along the way. No one 'loves' going to the dentist, but my experience with Dr. Franz and his office have been the best I have had with any dentist. I feel comfortable returning to him or referring my family to him in the future.

    I chose Dr. Franz because at the time he had a five star rating on yelp and was covered by my…read moreHumana insurance. I appreciated that there were pictures on his website which allowed me to see that the entrance is very handicapped friendly, as this is a must for me. The doctor himself seemed very competent and friendly. After my cleaning I was not asked for money upfront. That might be because the person who usually takes payments was not there. I was shocked when I got the bill and discovered that it was over $300 AFTER Humana had paid their portion. For just a cleaning and bite wing x-rays?! But, OK, I don't generally have a lot of problems with my teeth, so I was just planning on asking to go in less often - every nine months instead of six for cleanings. Recently I was having some pain (not sure if it's sinusitis or tooth problem) so I called the office to attempt to get an appointment. I called three times a day for two days straight and only to discover that apparently they are not answering the phone anymore. I'd get a recording asking me to leave a message and they would call me back. I did that. Never got a call back. This doesn't seem like a very efficient or caring way to run a business. When I started searching for another dentist I discovered that I cannot use my Humana Insurance there anymore. Altogether not a great experience!

We booked an emergency appointment when my fiance couldn't eat her teeth were so bad. She hasn't been able to eat in over a month and she had become very thin. We both have disabilities so whme tried to get an Uber to our 345 appointment but the first one cancelled and we arrived 7 minutes late. The receptionist refused our appointment claiming it wouldn't he fair to the other patients (mind you they close at 5 so that would be what... 2 max? I reiterated to the belligerent and smug, self-satisfied receptionist that it was an emergency appointment and she hasn't been able to eat. She smiled as she kept towing the same line and I just kept thinking about the sobbing sounds of my fiance at night when the pain was so severe she couldn't stand it and I began to become furious. Eventually she agreed to ask the doctor who came over and said the same heartless things as I explained the same things to him. He then tried to make what I believe was a very crude pass at my fiance and became embarrassed , lied and stumbled on his words when I had asked him if he had ever had a lived one with a severe condition like this before telling me that I was the one being rude. I would certainly not reschedule with these people and to be honest I wouldn't trust them in a room alone with any loved one especially with intentions anything like what they demonstrated to me today. You want to take the risk go ahead but personally if you do I would skip the anesthesia.

    Will definitely recommend to others. My sister, her children and my stepmom come here so I decided…read moreto give them a try. I've gone for a cleaning, an extraction and a filling and was very pleased each time. Very clean facility and courteous staff. Love both Dr. Dana and Aubrey Bateman, can't go wrong with either one!

The Dr. is thorough, knowledgeable, caring, and personable. I really like the location. It is set in Hyde Park/Oakley area and in a cute little office building. There is always ample parking out front and it is a safe area. They are located on the main floor, just follow the signs and you can find it easy peasy. The staff is always super nice and attentive. I am always greeted when walking in and not left to wonder if I need to sign in or if I am going to be left waiting or anything. I have always been taken back in a timely manner and have never had to be there more than maybe 45 minutes in total for a routine visit. Dr. Ott is super nice and a great dentist. The hygienists are always thorough, painless, and thoughtful. They think about the whole picture of your oral/teeth health and take your insurance into account when deciding on testing. Overall, great place to go once or to become an established patient!

Every time I call, its a different excuse about why they haven't refunded me yet. They make you pay before they get insurance payment. My new dentist doesn't do that and it is so refreshing!

Hurts ten times worse when the person berating you and casting judgement is a brother or sister in Christ. Single mom of three, veteran, council member, genuinely someone who tries to do good and give back to the community. My downfall, as a single working mom juggling so much sometimes I run late when putting adding something new to our life. I sought out this dentist solely due to what I thought was shared beliefs. I have a son who is twelve and has a fear of shots and has two cavities. I was ten minutes late and let my son go inside first while I parked, got my one year old daughter out of the car, and sent a work text. I hadn't gone through anything like this before and for some reason I was under the impression that he would go in get gas, there would be some time to allow it to go into effect and then it would be time for the fillings which I intended to be inside for. I had already spoken to the dentist about the laughing gas and requested it for my son at our last visit. I got a call from the front staff asking if I was coming in to which I said yes. I was not told at that time that they were waiting for me. When I came in my son was in the waiting area in a chair crying. The dentist pulled me back to his office ridiculed me stating he was not going to treat my son said "I'm not dealing with this", "this is a waste of everyone's time", "I'm not starting my day like this", reiterated the fact that I was late and I should've been in there. All this while he sees me holding my one year old and just kind of insinuating I was being a bad parent and my son was the bad kid that's just too much for him. My boys are so sweet don't get in trouble at home or school just one has a fear of needles and I wasn't aware of the full process. I thought I had time and wanted to avoid my daughter freaking out disrupting clients so I was trying to not have her in there the entire time, but I hadn't realized there wouldn't be much time in between my son receiving his shot and getting started. It would have been nice when I received the call to come in to know your son is emotional/hysterical and needs you. I kind of just thought they were checking to ensure I was here before they treat and that I didn't drop him off and/or that I would need to pay immediately. Hind sight is twenty twenty and I wish I would've planned ahead for school traffic and just walked in at the same time. Either way it would've been nice to be treated with grace instead of harshness, judgement, criticism, frustration, and rejection. The front staff and dental hygienists we encountered were extremely sweet and kind, but apparently the dentist we saw only is when we are not an inconvenience. Doesn't help that I just so happen to be of brown complexion. So if you tend to run behind or you yourself or children need some TLC I would recommend checking with another dentist office or trying a pediatric dentist.
