They also take all my sarcasm and sass with a huge smile. I still don't like going to the dentist, but if I have to go, this is where I'd like to be. Some of the policies have changed due to COVID but they still provide the great standard and quality of care that I have come to expect from them. They send you a text for a health screening prior to your appointment, they check in again with you at your appointment and take your temperature and then you are off with your CDA/hygienist to one of the private rooms.

A thorough examination and very clear explanations of the condition of my teeth and how to best care for them affirmed my sense of confidence. The cleaning process was as gentle as can be expected for a fairly invasive process. I highly recommend this practice. John Walton

Care Dental Hygiene. Without question the single greatest dental experience I have ever had. My…read morerecent visit for a teeth cleaning was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff, further putting me at ease. I was pleasantly surprised that there wasn't a ton of papers to fill out, just one wet erase form that they wipe clean after they scan into each client's chart. Ethel is a true professional (even though I have known her for almost 40 years). She has a gentle, confident touch and an eye for detail. She first explained what and, most importantly, why she was doing what she was about to do, that is big for me! First, she took my blood pressure, she then did a palpated screening of my jaw, throat, and face for lumps or irregularities. She offered me lip balm (in a range of flavours) to prevent my lips from sticking to the instruments. She polished my teeth first to ensure I didn't leave with grit in my teeth. She then meticulously cleaned my teeth, ensuring every nook and cranny was thoroughly taken care of. What impressed me the most was her dedication to explaining each step of the process, from the tools she used to tips on maintaining oral hygiene at home. Her knowledge and passion for dental care were evident throughout the appointment. Beyond her technical skills, Ethel exudes a genuine care for me as a patient and my dental health. She stays current on the proven ways of dental care and oral health and uses modern equipment further accentuating her commitment to excellence. The ambiance of the clinic was also very clean and comfortable, which added to the overall positive experience. She, by far, has the largest dental rooms I have ever been in and most comfortable dental chairs I have ever sat in. If you're looking for a dental hygienist who goes above and beyond, puts you and ease and educates you on maintaining between appointments look no further. I left with a brighter smile and the confidence that my dental health is in excellent hands. Thank you, Ethel, and the team at Care Dental Hygiene, for providing such exemplary care!

Dr. Fran is the only honest dentist that I have ever been to in my life. Her primary concern is…read morewhat every dentist's primary concern should be--and that is to preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible! She does not try to convince her patients to have all kinds of unnecessary work done (like other dentists do) because she knows that nothing compares to natural teeth. Dr. Fran's conservative, respectful approach is why her patients promote her to others. Any dentist who has pure motives regarding their patient's teeth deserves to have more patients than they can handle and that is why I am writing this review. Dr. Fran is also very gentle which makes her the best dentist for children and those who are worried about pain. Finally, I must say that she is truly a wonderful person and she has a good sense of humour as well. Dianne and Anne work at the front desk and they are really nice ladies. I enjoy talking to them because they are really down to earth and compassionate. I would bring some food and drinks and sit and talk them--but they are too busy. Autumn is one of Dr. Fran's assistants and she is very friendly and up-beat. All said, Dr. Fran and the other ladies make one's dental appointment as calming and pleasant as possible. I close my eyes and get some needed rest while Dr. Fran is working in my mouth, and sometimes get to have a laugh or two during an appointment. Dr. Fran is in the Campbell River Common mall on Ironwood Street. Dollarama and Thrifty Foods are part of the same mall.

I recently booked an appointment at Discovery Chiropractic, where I had been a patient several…read moreyears ago. I chose to return because returning patient prices are less than new patient rates. However, only after my appointment, was I informed I would be charged as a new patient since they hadn't seen me in several years ($30 difference). For context, I had called twice because I was pretty sure I had been a patient there before, several times. The time with the doctor was not a new patient consultation but a 10-15 minute adjustment. They did agree to take $15 off the new patient price, but I still felt it was unfair and should have been communicated upfront. On a positive note, the adjustment was good and resolved my neck stiffness. They were also able to get me in quickly, which I appreciated. However, the billing issue left a bad taste in my mouth, so I called them back and explained that I felt misled. Instead of addressing my concern, they defended their practice of not being transparent upfront. It would have been more honest to inform me beforehand that I'd be charged as a new patient, especially since I mentioned I was inquiring around town to find where I had been previously. It is not about the money, but instead about the principle. This experience left a negative impression. I run a business, and I think honesty and transparency are key to good customer service. If I informed someone after the fact that I would be charging them more than they expected, I would likely have unhappy customers, and less than 5-star reviews.
