(2) The optical staff were my problem (consistently over last 3 yrs); not happy with them AT ALL. Actual Drs and people who assess your prescription were great, but the optical and desk staff were ignorant and the optical staff -- consistently RUDE. I need a different RX for every distance & this requires the optical person to _listen_ when I explain what distance(s) I need a progressive lens for & what I need to be able to see. Also when I asked for a copy of my Rx (so I could get glasses elsewhere), on 2 occasions they sent me the wrong Rx. When the new eyeglass shop calls them, suddenly the latest Rx is given.

Dr. Specht changed my life. Literally. She took a mouthful of problematic teeth which I had been…read moretold twice before "absolutely must be extracted" for dentures, and somehow worked her magic and was able to salvage all but 4 of the teeth in my mouth. For the remaining 4 she set me up with partial dentures as well. But how she was able to completely transform all but 4 of the teeth Id been told by prior dentists were irreparable, is something between a miracle of sorts and pure serendipitous good fortune, for a change. The aching, breaking, stained teeth and unsightly mouth I owned just a month or two ago is now shiny white and almost new and the change was quick and incredible. I literally have been agoraphobic and mostly unable to work due to a combination of pain and shame concerning my teeth, and Dr. Specht and her hygienist have reinvigorated my confidence and my smile and my future will be brighter for the amazing work they've done for me. Needless to say, I am referring everybody I know and their brother to Up North Dental because of their impressive expertise and good work.

I don't usually hand out 1 star reviews but this business deserves it…read more Deer River Floral & Gifts completely let us down. My wife always brings my parents flowers when we visit them in Deer River. Since our hotel was in Deer River, this time, we decided to try out Deer River Floral. We stopped in at 10:00 am. Wow, what a letdown! They only had one small cooler for flowers that was mostly empty (see photo). And the flowers were wilted! I tried to get a better photo but the owner was on my case and didn't want me taking pictures. I don't blame her. They really looked bad. The owner made things worse by her unprofessional reaction to being caught unprepared. She didn't apologize and suggest a solution for the new customers that walked in her door. Instead, she scolded us and told us that our "timing is bad" because she had a delivery of new flowers in back. No, HER timing was bad because she wasn't prepared when 3 paying customers walked in the front door! Despite the bad start, will still tried to buy some flowers and make good on our visit. We asked her if she could bring some flowers out so we could look at them. NO, we have to come back later. We asked her if we could look at the flowers in the back room. NO, we can't look in back for safety reasons. (I doubt there were really any new flowers in back.) Lame, lame, lame. At this point, my wife went from disappointed to outright angry. She couldn't get out the door fast enough. As for the other things they do...crafts, candles, honey, artsy whatever...I don't care. We just wanted the main product -- flowers. We drove back to Grand Rapids and stopped at our usual store, Shaw florists. As always, they sold us some beautiful flowers for mom (and grandma). The selection was A+. And the service was First Class. We won't be back to this store in Deer River. Thumbs down. -Daddy Maxx Retro P.S.

Only Miskovich responded positively and I was treated the next day. Dr. Kuehn identified the problem and relieved the pain. I then met Dr. Peter for a root canal.

Jackie at the front desk was so helpful in scheduling and, surprise, the day after my treatment, Dr. Peter called to see how I was doing. That's exemplary customer service! So happy I now have a trusted dentist in Rapids.
