    I recently had an appointment here, and I am torn about how to review it. My dental hygienist was…read moreincredibly kind, professional, and personable. However, the women at the front desk were rather rude. I felt as though they were talking down to me and approaching my conversations with them in a confrontational manner. To be transparent, I had issues with my insurance not being in network (which they didn't mention before treatment). They then proceeded to argue with me about the fact that they told me my insurance would reimburse me and that was "just how my insurance works." When in fact that reimbursement is only because it was out of network. Then when I asked for a price breakdown (because what I owed was double what they quoted me for), they were rude and wouldn't explain the breakdown. Overall it wasn't a great experience, but the actual dental care was good.

    There is absolutely a reason to smile and why not make sure you have a fantastic team to keep those…read morepearly whites, white. I changed dentist over a year ago because I felt like my dentist at the time had outdated equipment and practices. It was not an easy choice since I've been there for more than 10 years but it was necessary. Dr. Whatley and his entire staff from front desk to hygienist were highly recommended. And I certainly know why. He is so cool. Seriously, cool. His hygienist, I can't remember her name,I'll edit and add it later, is terrific. The office is clean, updated and after each visit, twice a year, they give me a little bag of encouragement. They're personable and professional. So if you looking for a dentist, a family dentist, check them out.

I made an appointment for Dr Whatley office, because I had been experiencing tooth pain, and I am a client there but had not been to them in a while. My Insurance Info was on file, but I had forgotten its a different insurance but same job. I received a text prior to appointment stating they canceled the appointment because of them not being able to verify my insurace-Instead of calling they sent text cancelling it. So I called and we got that straignt and I was seen in the office,. They took pics and the doctor i saw was not Dr Whatley but i spoke with them let them know that I hadd been taking motrin and it was no longer working. The dentist looked over the xray of my teeth and told me it was not infected and I could have it pulled or a root canal-I choose the root canal. They set it up and I left in pain even more so now because doing the xray has aggravated my tooth. I called back after taking tylenol as the dentist told me and after an hour called backed because of the pain. The young lady that answered the phone told me she would get back with me after talking with him and she did. Now she says the doctor will call me in some antibiotics because its infected. I told the young lady that the doc told me its wasnt. So they called in the prescription and I immediatey went and got it and started taking it-still hurting and not being able to go to work. I called the chat line and was chatting with someone-she took all my information and told me someone would call--They never did. So I called using their number and left a message as the answering machine stated that if it was an emergency they would get back with me. I had to go that weekend hurting really bad. It did evently stop but I had to endure pain that I should not have had to. I have been nursing for over 25 years and I know one of the first things you learn is not to judge others pain-if that is what they were doing, and I personally think they were. I did get a call this morning asking reason for call-so and reminding me about my root canal Wednesday. I cancelled my appointment and now looking into getting another dentist. I do not want anyone working on my teeth that do not have my best interest at heart or by a dentist that tells me i have no infection and then all of a sudden, I call and now It's an infection. I do not expect special privileges, but I do want a dentist that cares!!!! Going several days in pain is no joke.
