Even in my 30s, I still carried that fear and embarrassment until today. Dr. Martin is truly a godsend. She and her staff Ashley and Kam were absolute angels. From the moment I walked in, the front desk team was welcoming, kind, and reassuring. In the chair, Dr. Martin showed such compassion and patience that I've never experienced at any dentist before. Her bedside manner is incredible. You can feel her genuine passion for her work and her care for her patients. I was especially nervous about the needle, since it has always been a huge fear for me. But I honestly didn't feel a thing. I was blown away. For the first time in my life, I left a dental appointment not in tears of fear, but tears of relief and gratitude. If you've ever been afraid of the dentist, please know you will be in the best hands with Dr. Martin and her team. I can't recommend them enough. I'm actually looking forward to going back and finally taking care of my dental health.

Here is a copy of an email I sent to corporate. I'll update when they respond…read more I am writing to share about my experience at the Bloomingdale location. On Tuesday, January 13th, I called into work and scheduled an emergency appointment. The dentist, dental assistant, and hygienist were very kind. They walked me through the process explaining I would need to be on antibiotics for at least two days before they could remove the tooth. The office manager helped me schedule the cleaning and extraction for the following Monday when my work was closed for MLK day. (For context, I work in Northbrook - leaving my home at 6 am and returning around 6:45 pm. Your normal business hours do not work for me.) Initially, she said she didn't have any appointments for the extraction but when I suggested I would pay for my emergency appointment and call other Aspen Dental locations so I could have the rest of the procedures done on my day off, she said she would make it work. I trusted her to do so and paid the required 50% down-leaving with a Rx for antibiotics. Yesterday, I arrived for my 1:30 pm appointment. Wanting to avoid having to talk after my extraction, I asked to take care of payment right away. (I wasn't sure how I would feel after so I wanted to be able to just leave.) During my cleaning, the hygienist told me that because my appointment for the extraction was not until 4 pm (it was just after 2:15 at that point) I was welcome to leave and run errands or hang out in the waiting area. This was the first problem. The office manager did not tell me there would be this large of a gap between appointments. Again, I would have called other Aspen Dental locations. Initially, I chalked this up to a miscommunication. Without another option, I left the office after my cleaning, returning at 3:45 pm. This was the second problem. When I walked back in, the receptionist stated that she had called me. (I was in my car in the parking lot - I never received a call.) She stated that the doctor was running late and wanted to know if I could reschedule. I explained that, no, I had specifically agreed to continue at this location because I could have both the cleaning and extraction done on my day off. She slipped in the back and spoke with the doctor. When she returned, the story had changed and she said the doctor "does not do extractions". Problem three. I questioned which was true - was she running late or did she "not do" extractions. The woman just stood there. Assuming the later was true, I then asked why they hadn't told me they were unable to do the extraction when I first arrived for my cleaning. It clearly showed an extraction on their books as I had to sign "after-extraction care" paperwork. If the dentist truly "doesn't do extractions", why go through with having me pay for the procedure and sign off on all the forms?!?!? Had I known at 1:30, I might have been able to secure an appointment at another Aspen Dental location and not be leaving in pain. The receptionist did not have an answer. She did call the Palatine location after I asked her to call other locations but, of course, they were not able to accommodate me so late in the day. So, here I am - eight days later and still in pain. All I wanted was some care and compassion for a dental emergency. While looking for your corporate customer service email, I read on the website that each location is "independently owned". Problem number four. This entire situation has me questioning if the office manager had actually arranged things as she promised on the 13th. Was everything I experienced just a ruse to ensure I remained at this "independently owned" location rather than taking my money to a different location?!?! She was quick (looking back perhaps too quick) to change her answer about appointment availability when I suggested going to a different location. I truly hope you will look into this matter and I await your response.

Another was so strung out on caffeine, I swear I never saw him blinked. So when I found CS Dental Associates many years ago, I never wanted to go anywhere else. I even commuted in to see my dentist when I lived in downtown Chicago. They have several dentists working here, and I actually saw a few of them for various reasons (maternity leave, vacation, etc.) I was nervous every time they made an appointment for me with a new dentist, but they have all been great. They give me the play by play while they're working in my mouth, which helps me stay calmed and informed. In the recent couple of years, they were able to assign me a regular dentist. This is nice since he knows my history and I am comfortable with him. The staff is friendly, the office is clean, and there's a TV in the waiting room. It's conveniently located a few doors down from Jewel, so I can get my grocery shopping done at the same time. Hooray to efficiency!
