Lets just say that I did not have a great start with Timonium Dental. At first I would have given…read morethis place a 0 star, but they came back around and I'm going for a solid 3. Their front desk people were very difficult to work with from the beginning; they just weren't providing all the information I needed in order to schedule my kids' appointments. I kept having to call back and when I provided more information, more was asked of me. Finally I scheduled my appointments and waited 6 MONTHS. The day before my appointment, I got a call telling me that my insurance was not covered and that I had to cancel all my appointments. Long story short, it was an error by the front desk person, but it was difficult to deal with on such a short notice. The office manager, Kim, turned the whole thing around, and it is because of her, and the good service I received for my 3 kids the next day, that I am giving this place a higher star rating. I honestly hope they figure this out and that I can come back in 6 months and provide a better rating. Dr. Swauger and the dental hygienist were EXCELLENT with the kids. The place is very clean and looks organized and updated.

After it was discovered, they hounded me about the bill on a weekly basis. Had been caught sooner, I could've rectified the issue with my insurance.

Today, I drove out there for an appointment, and they asked me if I was paying cash because apparently the insurance issue still hasn't been rectified. This is something they could've checked the day before before wasting my time again.

I first consulted with Dr. Steven Haywood when a very old (35 years +) bridge started to break…read moreapart. This bridge was made when I was a young adult to correct having no front lateral incisors due to a hereditary defect. Since the development of new advances in cosmetic dentistry I researched the named experts in this field. I decided upon Dr. Haywood since he had an excellent reputation and years of experience. He took a lot of time with me during my consultation since I had a lot of questions. He was very down to earth, respected what I had to say, and really listened. Never has he made me feel rushed. After my consultation, I was impressed with the newest techniques and procedures he described that would be utilized to make a replacement. He offered several options and I decided on the one that I felt would be the most beneficial to me and achieve a pleasing look to the eye. There was incentive for paying in full, but certainly other financial arrangements could be made. Let me say, with no reservations, Dr. Haywood is a caring, cosmetic surgeon with a great dental chair manner. His staff is friendly, efficient and my appointments were made to blend with my work schedule. The office and dental rooms are pristine. I felt completely comfortable during the procedures. Each service as it was being performed was explained, so I had a clear understanding of where, why and what was happening. The entire process was completed within the proposed schedule. After the success of my bridge replacement, I decided to continue with Dr. Haywood for my regular preventative dental appointments. Although my dental hygiene health wasn't bad, it is so much better now! In fact, my spouse decided to see Dr. Haywood, decided on implants and now has an extraordinary smile. He, too, has chosen to continue for regular dental check-ups. We both love getting compliments on our smiles! Dr. Haywood's vast knowledge and experience will give you amazing results. He is a very gifted dentist who does remarkable work. Truly, if you want an extraordinary, lasting smile you can be proud of and exceptional dental care, I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Dr. Haywood. Go for a consultation; you'll be convinced. It was a rewarding experience!!

Once I got to the office I was told that I was out of network and there would be out of pocket expenses. Based on the doctors prices and what my insurance pays they estimated that I would need to pay approx $90.00. All I did was get bite wing xrays (not complete xrays which they suggested that my insurance didnt pay for at all because I had them done recently) and a basic cleaning. A few weeks later I recieved a bill for approx $120.00 more!!! I didnt even get a deep cleaning or a cavity filled! Had I known that her prices were so far over what my insurance paid I would have NEVER agreed to that and I would have found a doctor in my network. I definately felt like I was CHIN-CHECKED with a HIGH BILL!!!!

I called my insurance to give me a list of doctors and every office I called seemed irritated that I called, very little patience. I found Dr. Ford on Yelp and took the previous review as a good enough reason to give him a try. I am so glad I did. I called to set up an appointment and the woman I spoke to was incredibly kind and patient. Scheduled me to be seen in a short time and even made my follow-up appointment at the same time. I felt at ease! The day of the appointment there was no waiting, it was a friendly and clean atmosphere and everyone was nice! It's hard to find that in healthcare professionals. Dr. Ford is knowledgeable, caring, patient (and I needed that) and honest. He let me know all the options available to me and let me decided. So many doctors try to push things on you that you don't even need! He walked me through everything that was happening and that is so important. He didn't rush through anything, he seemed to genuinely enjoy his craft. His staff is just as great as he is and I don't think I'll need another dentist in a long time! If you need a dentist, Dr. Ford is your guy! :)

They billed my old insurance(new job) which was denied of course and kept sending the bills FOR 18 MONTHS without a single phone call. I've moved a few times and forwarded all mail (young professional). They send it over to collections where I immediately answered provided payment information etc. They are proud of the fact they don't call patients because they don't have the "time" or the card reminders they send in the mail are "enough" This is not an establishment for 2019, they are from 1998, where calls were billed by the minute.

I am not sure, but I don't believe that he sends the moldings for permanent crowns out to a dental technician. I believe he makes his own to save money, but he doesn't tell the customer. He is deceptive. Generally, when I get a root canal, once the root canal is complete, there is a temporary tooth made through molding and the molding is sent to the dental technician to make a permanent crown. Once the permanent crown is ready, the dentist just pops it on and secures it with glue or something. This did not happen with Dr. Gekas. He told me the permanent crowns were in, and then her drilled and drilled and filled, etc. He is not a skilled dentist and he is very forgetful.
