I recently moved back to the area, thinking I was going to the original dentist that started the…read morepractice. I needed a crown and after sitting in the chair a new dentist popped up and said Hi I'll be helping you today, with no time to think in my emergency situation I just let him take care of me. In reality as soon as I made an appointment they should've specified that there was a different Dentist that took over the practice. My temporary crown fell off 2 days later, which might not be so bad, but they had no emergency plan in place. I was having some pain and left a message Saturday morning asking for help on what to do and left a email as directed. Unfortunately no call back just a e- mail around 6pm Sunday evening by that time I got it figured out. I must say the worst part of my whole experience was leaving after my work was completed and still not feeling well because of the receptionist The receptionist or bar bouncer looking woman..Couldn't of been more cavemen like and rude. Insurance paid 1/2 already and I paid off the other half and still owed a small amount I decided I wanted to make payments to make sure my work was secure. I have never been treated so poorly by receptionist in my whole life . After stating I needed to make the rest of my payment in full immediately. I asked her if they did payments, she said no I need to make it before I leave. I told her I didn't have the money at this time but I have a good job, so I can make payments. Funny, but I actually am a Bill Collecter for a hospital. I know patients can make payments in any situation. She told me nobody there is allowed payment everyone pays upfront or after every service in full. I watched another man make a payment arrangement at my first visit, so that was a lie. The desk or bouncer acting person then said "sorry if you don't make enough money to pay, but that's not my problem" What....How rude... Trying to belittle me was such a immature and ugly look on a person that needs to have a good personality to make herself look good already. If I talked to a patient like she did I would expect to get fired and with good reason. Stay clear of this place, not only is the front desk girl combative but shouldn't be working with the public and has no social skills. I shouldn't of left a visit with a bad feeling because of her...was a horrible experience, shame on you office billing girl..I am sure life as a bar bouncer would be a better fit .Then you could try and argue with people all night long..

The office was very spare, but the nursing staff seemed competent. The doctor was a bit blase when we met him and not very professional. The office billing was very primitive. They said that I would not have an estimate of charges before the procedure because they didn't have a fax machine and had to correspond with insurance BY MAIL! The day of the procedure we were at a new location and it also left a lot to be desired. They doctor was efficient, but can I say a bit primitive in his approach to tooth removal (4 impacted teeth)! He saved the teeth for us, but the aftermath was rough! No escort to the car although my daughter was highly medicated, no stitches....she had gaping holes in her mouth, and a long, recover from pain. Rethink it if you are thinking about going there! Lastly, they tacked on $500 for some indistinct medical procedure which was not explained to me.

Their service and bedside manners are excellent. I'm always informed of my state of dental health and collaborative approach to treatment plans. Very happy with their practice. 11/1/2022 This practice under Dr. Meera is excellent. So good that now that I am switching to Medicare I am making sure the plan that I get have them as approved providers.
