Original Review Reposted After Unfulfilled Refund Agreement and untruthful…read more I originally posted a review of this experience on March 18. I had agreed with the dentist to remove the review in exchange for a refund. Since I never received the promised refund, I am now reposting the review. Here it is: I am deeply disappointed with my recent experience at this dental office. I scheduled a tooth extraction after being told over the phone that my out-of-pocket cost would be $90 with insurance. Instead, I left with a $910 bill. The lack of financial transparency was extremely concerning. I was initially told that a bone graft would cost around $600, but during the procedure, that amount suddenly increased to $850--and I was required to pay immediately. What made the situation worse was the pressure I felt while still in the chair. The dentist pushed me to make an immediate decision between an implant or a bridge--both significant medical and financial choices that require time and proper explanation. I was also told that a bone graft was necessary right after the extraction, even though a bridge typically does not require one. When I questioned why these options and costs were not clearly explained beforehand, I was dismissively told, "We told you so," referring to information that had never been clearly communicated to me. At no point were the cost differences properly outlined. I also want to note that I never had any issues with the previous owner during my care, which makes this experience even more disappointing. At this point, I expect I may hear more explanations or even an apology, but that alone does not address the core issue of transparency and patient communication. Overall, I felt rushed, dismissed, and treated like just another number. Patients should never feel pressured into making major, permanent decisions on the spot. I would not recommend this office to anyone who values clear communication, transparency, and professional patient care.

We've been patients here for about 5 years, 2 adults and 2 teenagers. At this point all of us have…read morehad "something" done over that time whether it was a tooth pulled, cavity filled, whitening kits or cleanings. I can't express enough how lucky I feel to have found this practice. 3 years ago my daughter had a tooth pulled with "zero pain". Last month I had my first cavity filled in 20 years. Wow, Dr Walby and his assistant whipped through that thing so quickly and seamlessly I wish I could have videoed it. Zero pain or discomfort. All done in about 20 minutes. I was waiting for there to be pain once my numbness wore off, but nope. In the past, I've had to go back to other dentists for them to correct the bite, but he did it perfectly right out of the gate. We're all impressed.

After being told I was not a good candidate for an implant after I had to have a tooth extracted, I…read morefound Dr. Obeid at Oakridge Dental Center for a 2nd opinion. He did a thorough exam and Xrays and concluded the implant would work instead of pulling more teeth and having a bridge. The implant was seamless and turned out to be the most perfect fit of any crown I've ever had. Thank you Oakridge for your wonderful service. Thank you again, DONNA.

The dentist suggested that I go out to a endodontist to get a second opinion on my teeth before we started my treatment plan. That endodontist took almost 2 months before I could see them. I went there to the referral appointment . Called back to Oakridge to make my appointment and she said they no longer take my insurance all of a sudden. She was very sarcastic with no apology. The office staff never really made me feel welcome there . Why dental offices do this to people is absolutely ridiculous to make someone feel less than because of insurance. This situation was absolutely unacceptable.

Saw Dr. Jim, who is there most of the time now, he's great- very thorough, knowledgeable, friendly. I usually see Rose or Saska as my dental hygienist and both do a great job. Good at their jobs and take interest in how I'm doing. From the dentists to the dental hygienists to Brian at the front desk, the staff is very friendly and nice.

As long as I live in this area, I will always go to Jostock no matter what!

Finally pain-free! I…read morehad been in pain since I was 21 years old due to TMD (TMJ). The few specialists I could find at that time could do nothing more than open my bite a bit. I had given up looking for a solution until my previous dentist recommended Dr. Haddad. I am now chewing without pain for the first time in decades. The price was astronomical, ( I actually waited a year to get the financing together for the crowns and the nighttime appliances) but worth every penny. The offices are competently staffed, extremely clean and professionally run. Dr. Haddad was extremely helpful in keeping my stress levels down by prescribing me some meds before the work prepping the teeth was done. A special thank you to each member of his team. They are empathetic, understanding, and extremely skilled. My husband and I now use Rochester Advanced Dentistry for all our dental needs.

I now continue with the practice for maintenance, with the same impressions I've had all along. I can't recommend the practice highly enough for anyone, but especially for dentist-avoiding patients as you feel at ease and pain-free whatever the procedure-from expert cleaning, cavities, extractions, to bone graft and implants, etc. Also, clear instructions, careful follow-up, and availability for questions or the unexpected. I feel that all the team is exceptional in terms of skill, know-how, and professionalism while having a consistently friendly and caring approach to patients.

Food collects where it didn't before he ruined my tooth. Also, I had to come back afterward because a sharp edge was left and was scraping the side of my tongue.

There were other things that were below standard with him that I'm not even going in to here.

I can't say enough about each person there that I have encountered. I adore the front office employee, Lisa. She's very helpful and pleasant, as well as professional and quick.
