    I came to Life Long years ago when it was just Dr. Long who I immediately loved and trusted. I had…read morea dental emergency and saw Dr. Martinez on a Saturday and while nervous, I trusted Dr. Long who had Dr. M. covering. Fast forward to Dr. Long expanding his practice and moving to the Old Saybrook office and Dr. Martinez taking over the Milford practice... Dr. Martinez is as caring a person as he is a magnificent doctor. Despite insurance limitations, Dr. Martinez worked with me to achieve my goals, attempting to save a tooth most other dentists would've simply extracted and looking at both long term and short term advantages to particular treatments. He made me part of my treatment plan and I never felt I had to do anything I was unsure of. When my father died, I needed to fly across the country for the memorial service. The day before I had to leave, I broke a tooth and called Dr. Martinez. Even though the office was closed, he quickly called me back and worked out a mutually beneficial time to see me. He came in on a Sunday morning at 6AM to fix my tooth before I had to get on the plane. The procedure took almost 2.5 hours and he had plans with his (then) pregnant wife for later that morning. His wife came to the office when he was finishing up to pick him up and had nothing but kind and sympathetic words for my loss. He never charged me a dime for that visit. Whenever I've had an issue where the out-of-pocket charge is more than I can afford, he puts payment on the back burner to ensure that I am healthy and comfortable. Dr. Martinez is a dentist who is a caring human being first. He has a way of helping his patients achieve what they don't think is possible in terms of care. He doesn't allow insurance to dictate treatments (he'll save a tooth instead of extracting it even if the insurance would indicate extraction as the recommended course) and works with patients on payment - both in terms of the total owed and allowing payments to be made on the patient's ability to pay. Recently I learned that Dr. Martinez is working from Life Long's Tolland office. Despite the fact that it is an hour's drive for me (instead of the 5 minutes between my house and his Milford office), I will be making the road trip because there is no one I trust more with my dental care than Dr. Martinez. I cannot recommend this dentist strongly enough!!

    Unethical billing practices and zero financial transparency…read more I am deeply disappointed with the lack of transparency and poor customer service at this office. During a routine visit, they performed X-rays without informing that the procedure exceeded my insurance's frequency limits, leading to an unexpected out-of-pocket bill. When I brought this to the manager's (Andrew) attention, the office manager completely refused to take responsibility or work toward a reasonable compromise, despite failing to inform me of the non-covered costs prior to performing the service. Patients deserve full informed consent--including clear communication about out-of-pocket costs before non-emergency procedures are done. I will not be returning and strongly advise future patients to double-check every service themselves before agreeing to treatment here, as this office will not disclose unexpected costs upfront.
