My 18 year old daughter went to him today in the Burleson office to have her wisdom teeth and roots of another tooth extracted. We waited 5 months trying to find an oral SURGEON that does IV sedation. Well, the day of the appt. The Dr. Walked in and I tried to shake his hand, he brushed me off and seemed very agitated. My daughter also noticed his "attitude" as well. Maybe because the scheduler Marianna was also having a pissy attitude. So the Dr. "Attempts" 2 IV sticks and misses, did not even try a 3rd which is standard practice. I, as a trauma Nurse of 22 years could have easily placed the iv in her right radial vein. We asked the tech if he could at least ask the Dr to TRY the radial. He REFUSED TO EVEN LOOK. So NO IV SEDATION, they gave her the equivalent of a low dose of valium...thats it! If that would have been acceptable, we would have gone to a general dentist, which btw..(thats what he is). He is NOT an oral surgeon, he is a GENERAL DENTIST WITH A BAD ATTITUDE.
So he now wants to extract all 4 wisdom teeth (1 horizontal one) and a root extraction with NO SEDATION. That is barbaric and inexcusable. My daughter just wants this over with as she has been waiting for 5 months to get in with an ORAL SURGEON AND WITH IV SEDATION. SHE GOT NEITHER!
PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU CHOOSE A DENTIST. If you have a bad feeling about the visit or if the "Dr." and the "Scheduler" are both rude and pissy towards you or your child, RUN, RUN FAR. I personally would not take a dog to Dr. Johnson if he was the LAST "Dentist that extracts wisdom teeth" on earth. Make sure you find a true ORAL SURGEON, not a general dentist. We were lied to, treated like crap and will file a complaint with every agency I can, so this deception, and attitude does not happen to anyone else. Please do your homework before scheduling anything. I would not let him go a teeth cleaning on anyone I care about.
Now I am being harassed by Marianna the "Scheduler", telling me how wonderful he is and how SHE was completely awake for HER wisdom teeth removal....SERIOUSLY? I dont care about what happened to her and that she had fun on the chair. My daughter was TORTURED today and now Im being harassed by the scheduler Marianna, and I am now telling them all NOT TO CONTACT US AGAIN! read more
