âThe scaling/cleaning was performed by another staff member, and the doctor I booked came to assess the results and conduct the examination. Overall, I had a great experience and may continue my check-ups and cleanings with them.â

November 20, 2017Donald S.Verified patient
I had a very disappointing experience at this dental office.
I booked an appointment expecting to be seen by a specific provider, but instead I was treated by someone else without any prior notice. The person who performed my cleaning was unprofessional, and the quality of the cleaning itself was not good.
When I raised my concerns, I spoke with the manager, but that only made things worse. Instead of addressing the issue properly, the interaction was unhelpful and frustrating.
On top of that, I received an excessive number of messages before my appointment, which felt unnecessary and overwhelming.
Overall, this visit did not meet basic expectations in terms of professionalism, communication, or quality of care. I would not recommend this office based on my experience.
