And now I have to get a second opinion because I've heard so many stories about how inaccurate her assessments are. The badly trained hygienist shoved the whole metal x ray holder in my mouth (the metal ring should be outside) for maybe a dozen x rays. I started screaming in pain and was even in tears. When the doctor came out she expressed no concern for my pain, just blaming my experience on my large tongue. It had never once been brought up before and it was a really crappy way to get around validating my pain. Later that day as I started having symptoms of a respiratory infection, I lost it. In addition to that agony and degradation, now I had to put everything on hold for nearly a week because of whatever nastiness was on that metal thing shoved to the back of my throat again and again, all while the "medical professional" blamed me for my large tongue. And I missed out on paid work I really needed. Dr Monahan hasn't responded to my other review or two emails. I will not contact her directly again but if she wants to apologize she can reach out to me. I am definitely going to report her and her practice and encourage others to do the same. No one should have to endure this.

They attempted to withhold my Medical records for ransom which is illegal under HIPAA…read more They tried to say they could not release my medical records until I paid a $50 same day cancellation fee. THIS IS HIGHLY HIGHLY ILLEGAL. They did this while a girl, whose name is Emma, sat on the phone being condescending. Oblivious to the law or the gravity of the situation. They only released them after I filed a complaint. Do not allow medical professionals to withhold your medical information under any circumstances! This is why we have laws against this. STAY AWAY!

State of the art equipment, excellent communication and a pleasant, professional atmosphere. As little stress as you could possibly imagine with dental work. Note: It's out of their control but be aware that parking at the Shadyside Place is an adventure. Recommend that you just go down all the way down to the outside area and use the ground level entrance and elevator. Everything is very tight in the garage itself.

I've been going to this dentist office for several years now and it's convenient for me because…read moreit's within walking distance. The front desk person always remembers me and I get to go back usually less than five minutes after being checked in. I like that they have a texting system for reminders about appointments. They texted us all today mentioned that their parking situation is valet only right now which didn't affect me because I walked but I can see how that can be annoying to others. Their waiting area is small with three chairs but they have things like a cell phone cleaner and bottled water while you're waiting. I had my six month check up today. I had X-rays done, my next appointment scheduled, cleaning, flossing, polishing, and fluoride done. A dentist also came in after the hygienist and checked my teeth. All of this was done in about 40 minutes. They usually give you a small goody bag with a toothbrush, a small thing of floss, and a travel toothpaste tube but they didn't this time for me which isn't a big deal. My fluoride treatment was $20 and I paid with my FSA card.

I don't have insurance, so this amount is a bridge too far. Building a walled garden around quality dental care is a terrible way to run a business. The cost is on account of a number of tests which have to be performed BEFORE they clean your teeth. I don't have any major concerns, so what is the fuss about? How about trusting the testimony of the patient? How about working with the patient instead of dictating to me what I should do? Quality care shouldn't be made inaccessible like this, it's so frustrating. And the office telling me to "kick rocks" was the real "kick in the teeth" that got me to write this review. Let's hope YELP keeps it up for others

I've also encountered some (lack of) insurance problems, and Dr. B has worked with me on those to try to lessen the stress. Worth the drive to the south hills, for sure! Also, the office itself is relaxing. Some of the ceiling tiles in the rooms are clouds, just for an added touch :) And there is a photo book in the lobby of a medical mission/service trip Bellios took.

The whole staff was incredibly kind and they are all very upbeat. Dr Bellios was so nice in explaining everything to me when he made my treatment plan. There wasn't a single question or concern that I brought up that he didn't make me feel at ease about. The girl at the front desk (Rena?) is super awesome about finding an appointment time that works with your schedule and working with you for a payment plan if you need it. She puts you at ease the minute you walking in the door and that makes her spectacular. I ended up needing a root canal, crown and some fillings. The root canal wasn't what I thought it would be like. I was so scared that it would hurt but Dr Bellios was very patient and made sure it didn't hurt at all. Every step of the way he was very kind and patient, even when some things just wouldn't get numb! I've Now completed my treatment plan and I couldn't be happier. If you are looking for a new dentist I highly recommend coming here. The whole staff is great and if you're afraid of the dentist, like I was, they'll fix that :)

After my second visit, earlier this month, I am never returning and am switching dentists immediately. I filled out an online form for Jeffries exactly a week before my appointment to provide them with my dental insurance. I was proactive by informing them of my dental insurance and providing ample time (a week) for them to review it in advance before my appointment, so - in the case it wasn't covered - they could informed me in advance. I even reached out via email prior to filling out the online form to ask for the best way to provide it to them - via photos of my card or via a form or what - and they directed me to the form on their site, which I filled out the next day. FYI, I never heard back from them at all after providing them my insurance information. This was filled out on the Sunday prior to my Saturday appointment, about 6 days later. They only just reviewed my dental insurance AFTER my routine teeth cleaning appointment and informed me then that they don't accept my coverage, so I was charged the full upfront price for the appointment. This is totally unfair. If I give you ample time to review my insurance information, quickly submit it via the means you requested, and never heard back between a week timeframe of it not being acceptable, it is your job as an business team to follow up with me accordingly. They, however, clearly didn't and just wanted my business and money.
