After my professional review I received this ignorant and unprofessional private message from Mr. Tahir
""12/21/2018Patricia S. (can't even provide last name) since this is all public, let me ask you: Do you live your life in negative waters? I am a phone call away and everyone has my cell number. Here it is publicly: 630-687-3393. You saw me a year ago for a free consultation and I could've easily done what many are doing (starting braces too soon). I saved you and your child from a MAJOR headache. A year later, you turn on the same person that helped you. For $75 to cover cost of xray/treatment review? Petty. Thank you for showing your true colors. People love to see their name in lights and with online reviews and social media, say what they want, sites like these, until doctors pay advertising fees, positive reviews keep disappearing - keeps adding to this mess. It's a good thing we did not go forward as I can see from your other negative reviews, you look for the 1/2 glass empty in life (Read my writings on living a positive, abundant life). Why not use your very limited time in this life to lift up with your words and attitude and teach same to your children, instead of looking for negativity and knocking things down? BTW: I love Drs. Petty, Bielk and Burke. They're close friends. Please don't look at complaining in their office as I am sure, somewhere along the line, there will be something. Dr.Tahir (yes I respond and handle all issues one-on-one). Just one phone call away.This was my reply.
Avoid him at ALL cost. My reply to this bully
"Mr. Tahir,
I believe you may need to take some of your own advise and stop living negatively. Apparently, you did not read my full review because you took it as a personal attack, but again, maybe YOU need to stop living in negative waters and look at how you can improve your practice. I never said as a dentist I did not like my original consultation, I actually said I did like it, and as a medical professional, it was your duty to inform me if my son needed to wait or not.
I am actually glad you responded this way because it has shown your true colors, and I would not want to deal with ignorance at its finest. If I made it clear to the receptionist, that I was going with your practice, and they could see everything would be covered, why not just waive the $75, or add it to the bill, which again would be covered by the insurance. Oh wait, maybe it is because you like to take advantage of people (you see what I did, I just assumed like someone who is ignorant).
Instead of trying to make sure your staff is fully trained to be customer service friendly, you spent your down time looking through my reviews. In 2013 for Dinolfo's which was very accurate (there are many similar reviews), 2016 Xposed was badly reviewed and again has very similar bad reviews, and in 2016 Eva's bridal which actually called and acknowledged their wrong doing. Hmmm I posted 3 bad reviews as a bride a few years ago for other brides to read, so they do not make a bad choice when a very special day in their life that comes once in a lifetime, but you wouldn't know anything about that because first time braces for a new teen doesn't seem to be something you would consider life changing and I guess that's why you do not care to treat your customers right.
As to your 1/2 empty glass reference, nope, if I am paying for a full glass( almost $5k), I better be getting that because if I get a 1/2 glass like your practice was offering me, I understand why you receive this and other poor reviews. Now I am going to be PETTY. Looking through your numerous bad reviews, I would say they are all very similar and negative, which speaks volumes of your practice.
One thing though, do not ever bring my children up in your petty ass mess. One thing I teach them is not to put up with bullshitters like you. Why don't you run a well-organized practice??? Maybe you need to invest in training to teach your staff and yourself to remember whose insurance is paying and focus on customer service, running a smooth business instead of going on yelp to stalk people files. MAYBE, if you stopped stalking people's files, you would have time to answer the phones and people wouldn't be on hold soooooo long. Better yet, you should shadow Drs. Petty, Bielk and Burke's practice, they seem to do a better job of running their legitimate practice
Furthermore, no one EVER gave me your phone number. Actually, when I requested to speak with you, they put me on hold. My name is Patricia R. (Ramos) but if you actually looked at your files to see who recently cancelled named Patricia, you would know, but again, you are not on top of your business.
Have a great holiday and maybe go read your writing on living a positive and abundant life. Based on your response, you need it. Lastly, don't come for me unless I send for you." read more
