Steer clear! If "0"…read morewas an option on the rating scale, Smile Generation's Dentists of West Ashley would receive a "0"! My husband and I were each treated rudely and aggressively by a member of the staff on 2 separate occasions. When I complained to the parent company, Smile Generation, I was ignored by 4 different representatives. In our opinion and personal experience, this company has no interest in or regard for its patients. Dentists of West Ashley is a relatively new office. My husband and I both received the introductory $59 cleaning and X-rays. The staff was pleasant and friendly. Its original dentist was wonderful and extremely knowledgeable. When I needed a crown after my filling fell out, he provided it skillfully. As a result, my husband scheduled his next cleaning. When we arrived, the office manager told him the cleaning technician was ill, and that she had called and texted my husband several times early that morning to inform him. He looked at his phone - there were no calls or texts from the practice or her. She argued with him. She asked that he reschedule. We have no car, and had taken the bus to the office, so we were expected to turn around and get back on the bus to go home. In addition, the weather was terrible that day. We weren't happy. Our original dentist had already been transferred out of the practice so the new dentist volunteered to provide the cleaning since we were already at the office. My husband was very unhappy with the cleaning, so unhappy that he scheduled a cleaning with a different practice soon after. We understand the new dentist who provided this inadequate cleaning has already been released. After the cleaning, the office manager told my husband he would be required to pay the full amount. He balked. Not only was he never informed that the tech was unavailable, he was stuck with a bad cleaning. In addition, she presented the charges as soon as he walked in, which included full X-rays - he already had them in the $59 special! She also expected him to pay for the dentist consult. She finally adjusted the charges, deducting the X-ray charges and the consult fee, and reducing the cleaning fee. Dealing with her was not pleasant - my husband uses harsher words! Days later, when he received an online survey about the service, he gave a bad review of the below-par cleaning, the office manager's attitude and the fact that he received no prior notice that the tech was unavailable and, therefore, had no opportunity to reschedule. Moving now to my own unfortunate interaction with the office manager . . . After my husband's awful experience, we decided not to use Dentists of West Ashley again. We ran into the cleaning technician who told us that the new dentist was already gone, replaced by yet another dentist who he felt was really well qualified. The office manager was still at the practice. I recently had a root canal and now need a crown. Crowns are expensive so I obtained quotes from several practices. My original crown at Dentists of West Ashley had cost less than the quotes I just received, so I called the cleaning tech for an office update. He said the office manager was still employed, and that she was the only person who could provide a quote. I called Dentists of West Ashley for a quote. I did not identify myself. I just wanted the price to compare. Big mistake. I asked the office manager for a quote. She put me on hold. When she came back, she informed me we needed to talk about 'the last experience'. She brought it up. She proceeded to justify her behavior on the day of my husband's cleaning. I was in the room during their conversations so I stopped her to remind her what actually happened that day. Our discussion became heated. She referred to the bad review. I told her I wanted to speak with the doctor for a quote. She said the doctor does not give quotes. She never gave me a quote, and finally threatened me by telling me our call had been recorded. I said, "GOOD!" I called the parent company, Smile Generation. I called 4 times and spoke to 4 different reps about the clash I had with the office manager. I asked for a callback from a supervisor each time. I received no response to any of my calls. The last rep told me the number I called was the billing department, so I asked her to file a complaint about the office manager. I also told her, if I did not receive a callback in 5 days, I would write a review. The 5 days have passed. No callback. And obviously no interest at all in speaking to me about an office manager who just cost them over $1,000, as well the future business of two former patients. Has this office manager been contacted by the parent company? Has management spoken to her about her behavior in attacking me over her past behavior? Not only does staff change often at Smile Generation/Dentists of West Ashley, but, in our experience, the company does not regard the patients it serves. Steer clear!

My father has been a dentist all my life so I know when I am seeing a good dentist and when I am being over looked and oversold. I will say from the very start Dr. Engel's office staff helped me find my insurance policy, set up a quick appointment for issues I was having and are so delightful. I always believe the staff is a clear indicator in the type of doctor they work for! Dr. Engel was thorough, on the spot of what needed to be done and helped me make arrangements quickly to handle my issues. He has a great energy to him that resonates though to the safe and makes even a patient like myself who struggles with anxiety very relaxed. I can not say enough great things about Dr. Engel & his practice. I have some rare health issues that all doctors have to treat me specifically for ( which he did with our hesitation) so, I am always a little scared I am going to be taken care of fully. I am so happy with the care I have received. My mother has now also become a patient and I would recommend him to anyone I know!
