I sent the following email to Lakewood Ranch Dental following my last appointment in September…read more2025. Never received a response. Clearly they do not value patient relationships and only care about maximum volume. I relocated here in 2024 from up north. Never had a problem like this before moving to LWR. Beware! #### Hello - Yesterday I had my six month cleaning at your office and following the appointment, I was told by the hygienist that due to current scheduling, she was not able to book me a new 6-month cleaning appointment and instead had to book my next appointment for 12 months out. Six month cleaning intervals have always been the gold standard of dental care. After expressing my concern, she said she could put me on a waitlist for a cancellation in six months. This is very disappointing on multiple levels. First, it is clear Lakewood Ranch Dental has taken on more patients than it can properly service which is now compromising patient health care. Second, the proposed solution of a waitlist for last minute cancellations is wholly inadequate especially for working professionals who frequently travel out of state. Advanced scheduling is a must. After expressing my disappointment, the hygienist explained that LWR Dental's schedule is so full because of frequent last minute cancellations (ostensibly the reason for your recently published updated cancellation policy). While I have no reason to doubt that is a current challenge for you, the fact is this is a LWR Dental business process issue of its own making that has now become your customers' problem. I challenge you to find an adequate solution to this situation or I will be forced to find a different service provider. This would be unfortunate because I really like Dr. Auletta, but your business processes needs immediate management attention.

I had been having great check ups, then they started saying they had concerns. There was also a lot of staff turnover. I would also get phone calls from them, but they were looking for another patient. Recently every time I went in there were "problems". They told me that I had a small cavity and needed to replace a crown. The quote was $400. I showed up today for my appointment ( after being called and told my appointment was tomorrow, but it turned out they were looking for another patient again) and was told it was two cavities and the crown replacement and the total out of pocket would be $800. I told them that was what was quoted, and that a second cavity was never mentioned. I have not had a cavity since I was in my 20's. This seems like they are recommending unnecessary work. I politely let them know that I would not be having the work done and finding a new dentist. I am wondering if the office has been sold recently.

A few weeks ago I went to Coast Dental and told them I was there for a second opinion. I had two…read moreteeth that needed crowns. What a mistake that was. Right away the vibe there wasn't good. They had nobody working in the reception room and as I found out they had no manager at that office either. Even though I had brought my prior x-rays with me they insisted on doing their own x-rays which included my whole mouth. When I objected they said it was standard for on anyone new going to their office. The girl who took the x-rays was totally incompetent and had to take the x-rays multiple times to get it right. Then they tried to upsell me on work I didn't need nor did I request. They tried to charge the insurance company $600 for that visit. They were denied. The whole experience was a nightmare.

A tooth that they added to my existing partial came off while eating a piece of lettuce two times. I called and told them it was an emergency since now I have a gaping hole in the front of my mouth. They could care less. First they told me I could get an appt. with the dentist within a week. I told them I had a previous doctors appointment. They said they would call me back, they did not. When I called them back to cancel my doctors appointment to accommodate the dentist appointment, they the said that I would have to wait two weeks. These are the worst people in the world and all they care about is the money. Beware of these people. I would add less than one star if I could!
