BEWARE HIDDEN FEES guys. What they do is tell you your first visit and evaluation will cost around $500, but then after you payed a $75 NON REFUNDABLE Deposit for your appointment, you are sent an envelope in the mail where you are hit with over $500 more worth of fees for tests....that YOU have to pay. On top of the first $500 - for THEM. When confronted, they will back off and say that "they will go ahead and see you without the hair and blood work", so they will make it seem like they weren't trying to rip you off. But they don't state that in the beginning and try hard to rip you for that money, and only back off of it when confronted. You're suspicious that your dental work like root canals, mercury fillings, etc is making you sick. They want to do all these tests on you and help you. So you agree. But there are more fees than just the $500 office visit. *** BEWARE, THEY WANT A $75 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT OFF OF YOUR CREDIT CARD, and DO NOT want to give it back when you find out about the hidden fees and cancel***They also want you to pay $60 to have your hair analyzed and they want you to cut a chunk out of the back of your hair for the testing - a BIG chunk, not a small one. To top it all off, they want you to pay LabCorp to have Bloodwork done. This is NOT INCLUDED in the $500 office visit. In my experience, LabCorp charges around $500 for the bloodwork that these Naturopaths request - the reason I know this is because I've been stuck with a $500 blood work fee from LabCorp before, from another Naturopath who claimed "my insurance would pay for it" - they don't. I promise that if any Naturopathic Dentist or Doctor tries to request $500 worth of blood work, your insurance isn't paying. So that fee will go on your credit rating if you ultimately don't pay it yourself. I just payed to get one off of my credit rating from a couple years ago and it was a b*tch. So to recap, they want $75 non refundable deposit PLUS $420 upfront for your office visit PLUS $60 for a hair test PLUS $500 (plus or minus) for LabCorp bloodwork (which they claim your insurance will pay but the truth is they most likely won't). So now you are up to $1060, but your tooth still is not out. Who knows how much the actual Extraction is? And then, the replacement tooth. I don't really know what the quality of the work here is, the person I spoke to on the phone today didn't sound professional but sounded like a not so good salesperson. What I did was call a local Endodontist, explain to him the problem (I want a Root Canal out because I think it his having negative health reprecussions), and make sure he understands to get every piece out and also the periodontal ligament.). Total fee for office visit, Xrays and extraction - around $500. Plus he is right around the block, so no paying for a hotel room in Scranton PA and the travel fees, can rest up right at home and do whatever extra Vitamin C and herbal treatments I feel are necessary right from my own home. Oh by the way, they won't return my $75 deposit so I payed $75 to find out this info for all of you. *****UPDATE**** - when told of this bad review and told that I would remove it if they give my money back, I was told that I had "threatened" them and "I had a better chance to get my money back if I had not said this to them", etc etc on like that and was displayed a hostile attitude now on the call. So, because they were polite I had given them two stars but now I'm changing it to one. I now believe they are shysters and you should most likely avoid them at all costs. They most likely own the hair testing service and other businesses associated with their main business and are raking in money for nothing - $1060 and the service you originally wanted still isn't performed, and $75 deposit for doing nothing and acting nasty on the phone when it's demanded back. ***** UPDATE***** - the Dr. Posted below that there were no hidden fees, BUT they take your deposit WITHOUT making you understand that the lab test that you will pay for ON TOP of their $495 office visit, will total between $500 and $600, making your total upfront expenditure $1000 without any work whatsoever having been done on your teeth. When you call them on it, they keep your $75 deposit. SHADY. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUwFj2r5HbU read more
