Worst experience with so-called medical "professionals" I ever had in my entire life. I came in…read morefor care with after waiting months to have my emergency surgery. Does anyone know what a medical emergency is/ Anyway,in intense pain i went to front desk barely able to stand. I began to fill out the paperwork and i hadnt even finished before the ghetto Allentown attitude came out of the staff. They seemed to be annoyed I would even have the audacity to seek medical treatment even though i was referred there by a dentist. The attitude and rudeness and hostility towards a patient in an extremely vulnerable state -- that is intense debilitating pain -- was astounding and next the nurse was giving me attitude for not knowing exactly what procedure i was having done as if i have the paperwork or a degree in dentistry which i do not. The nurse set me in the X ray and vanished. Never even gave complete instructions and was mad i couldnt be still while in intense nerve pain shooting through my jaw and skull. The machince hit me at spun around bc i had no idea where she went or that she was beginning the X ray. After I realized the nurse or whatever her position is did not seem to be interested in my well-being i requested a different nurse. They all seemed so offended that I did not have my wits about from the pain and was not sufficiently polite for their liking when I first entered and they seemed to have a personal vendetta against me bc i was not sufficiently polite enough while in a medical emergency. More surprising than the general staff's rudeness was that after being denied my request to speak to someone regarding this unprofessional and uncharitable care that most have come to expect from medical professionals, even the doctor seemed more interested in lecturing me in politeness and blaming me for the rudeness of the staff. He started bickering and arguing me over it! I couldnt believe it. he said something like'not in my house!" Talk about an ego trip. I just wanted the procedure to take the pain away. But at SmileKrafters they say the patient comes first but apparently that is not the case. the doctor then said they dont take my insurance and i would have to go under general anasthesia to which i replied honestly which is my right as a patient that i honestly dont feel entirely comfortable with that seeing how i had been treated so poorly so far. this seemed to offend him as well. That sees to be all they want to do at the office. Dentistry may happen at the office but i guess only if you are extremely polite and never have pain that keeps you from being bubbly and amicable. brought me to the front desk where instead of telling me to go home or leave, the front desk people decided to loudly gossip and lie about me from a few feet away. i asked what am supposed to do and they just kept repeating that i was rude. Absolutely shocked but not also not surprised bc they seem to have crazy egos and they know there is little accountability. They will continue to treat patients as peasants beneath them Iam sure of it. Avoid this place (if you can). They didnt even ask me to leave as i waited at the front desk for directions. they staff started scolding me and told me they would call the police if i didnt leave when i was literally listening to the doctor when he said go to the front desk. God forbid they do any sort of dentistry at the dental office. Dealing with this place is like pulling teeth, something they refuse to do to anyone they deem "rude".

This place use to be legit they make you wait so long. My appointment was at 1pm and I didn't see…read morethe dentist until about three. Smile krafters use to have it together so much of a young crowd work there and really dont speak English fluently alot of playing and joking around. People were just coming in and going ahead of me. This is the worst dentist i have ever been to it should be shut down. SmileKrafters was never like this. Maybe its good for the kids because they have another side to the place. But for the adults forget about it. I should have listened to my daughter in shouldn't have went there. Oh and the dentist at first he was a little aggressive until I told him he better take it easy if he know what's good for him.

I am writing this review on behalf of my best friend regarding what we believe has been an…read moreunacceptable and deeply concerning experience with this dental practice. He has now been waiting approximately seven months for his dentures. During this time, he has repeatedly contacted the office seeking answers and resolution, only to receive delays, conflicting information, and what feels like a constant runaround. He is now being told that yet another appointment needs to be scheduled for September. Seven months without a resolution is unacceptable. What makes this situation even more serious is the effect it has had on his daily life. According to him, he has lost approximately 30 pounds while going without his teeth, and the prolonged situation is affecting his ability to eat properly and his overall well-being. This is no longer simply an inconvenience. It is a matter that deserves immediate attention. Communication with this office has also been extremely frustrating. We have repeatedly encountered situations where staff members appear to have different information regarding his case, making it incredibly difficult to determine what is actually happening or when his dentures will finally be completed. We have maintained receipts, phone numbers, dates, records, and recordings of communications related to this situation. We are asking the practice to review his case immediately, provide a clear explanation for the seven-month delay, and establish a firm and reasonable timeline for completing his dentures. If this matter is not appropriately addressed, we are prepared to pursue the available formal complaint channels, including contacting the appropriate dental regulatory authorities, his insurance provider, and other relevant organizations. We are also prepared to share our documented experience with consumer advocates and media outlets if necessary. This review is not being written lightly. After seven months, patience has been exhausted. A patient should not have to repeatedly chase a healthcare provider for answers while continuing to suffer the consequences of unresolved dental care. I strongly urge anyone considering this practice to carefully research their options and ask detailed questions about treatment timelines, communication, and follow-up before becoming a patient. Most importantly, we are asking this practice to stop the delays, review the documented history of this case, and resolve this matter immediately.
