Avoid this office at all costs…read more I have delta dental insurance, this dentist referred me to periodontics in Vero. After 2 office visits, I ended up ~1000 bills and my insurance only pays $252.80. I am responsible for over ~700 bill. There are 2 in-network periodontics in Vero and my insurance would cover 80% of the cost. But I do not know why Pirkle referred me to an out-network provider. Avoid Pirkle and Jeffery Brown at all costs if you have delta dental insurance.

The entire staff is excellent in that they all are very friendly and highly professional. I always feared the dentist due to problems I had as a child. I feel totally comfortable in this office and have no fear or apprehension about having any work done. There are 4 dentists in the practice now, however, I'm only familiar with Dr. Pirkle. I can not imagine that Dr. Pirkle, being the ultimate professional, would have anyone in his office he doesn't feel is highly qualified or doesn't fit in with the office environment, which in my experience, is always putting the patient first.

HORRIBLE STAFF!! I have been going to Dr. Malone for years now and was always OK with the customer…read moreservice because Dr. Malone herself is a kind person. However, I have seen her staff be catty with one another. Talking about each other to me, the patient! The hygienist always has an attitude and makes rude remarks. The most recent problem, I had a crown put on and it fell off the next day. So I decided to go to a different dentist to take care of the problem. Reason why, I had been to Malone's office 4 or 5 times to have the crown put on and had sat there for at least 1 hour each time waiting because they didn't know how to put in the crown type that I had. After getting my crown placed back on from the other dentist, I then came to realization that when Malone's office had charged me for the crown, they had never sent it to my insurance. So I had paid the full price and it wasn't cheap. The secretary, Michelle, has been taking her sweet time to get the problem fixed. AND HAS HAD AN ATTITUDE THE WHOLE TIME! EVEN THOUGH I COULD SUE THE SHIT OUT OF THEM! It's been nearly 2 months and I still don't have my full refund. It's ridiculous. Every time, we call the office, "I will have to look into that." and then she doesn't reach and we have to call back a week later to see if she ever did look into it. Not to mention, they are always running behind, even when I have the first appointment of the day and I still don't get called back until 20 minutes after my scheduled appointment. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SCREWED OVER BECAUSE OF THESE ERRORS MADE BY THE OFFICE STAFF?

I picked this dentist from the phone book and that was a big mistake. I started procedures in Nov…read more 2011 and I knew that I would need several teeth pulled on the bottom front. Dr. Malone quickly depleted my insurance for the year of 2011 and as 2012 rolled around she quickly depleted the insurance for 2012. The appointments kept coming and coming, it was always something and every time I went in they wanted another $200 which is now coming out of my pocket. We went through Nov, Dec, Jan and now it is the end of Feb. They keep calling me with reasons for me to come back in for more procedures. They said they lost the impressions that they took for my partial plate, or they did something wrong, or lost something else. It is always something to make me come back in and more money. We are going on 4 months now and I still don't have any teeth to eat with. This last appointment I could no longer be nice about all of this and demanded that they get the teeth and put them in. I know that I am being scammed but I have to stick with them until I have teeth. Bottom line....I am so sorry I ever went to this dentist and cannot recommend her to anyone.

No care for patients, hurry in and out. Equipment needs to be updated. Not a progressive office.read more

I had been going to Dr. Peterson for over 20 years, I recently moved an hour and a half away so I…read moredecided to try a dentist near where I live now. That dentist told me that I needed over $3500 worth of crowns. I had a feeling that they were trying to rip me off so I drove down to see Dr. Peterson for a second opinion. Doc fixed my tooth with a simple filling that I've had no trouble with since. Dr. Peterson is an honest dentist who doesn't try and up-sell you with the most expensive dental work he can.

Dr. Karpinski is an Angelic Angel Spirit My Husband and I met him in November of 2018. He has…read morealways been kind Gentle and honest. What makes him rare is the fact that his most important care is that his patients are happy. In the world we live in today most businesses care about the $$$ only and will charge at ridiculous high prices and the customer or client does not get what they pay for. I was a patient at smooth Sailing Dental up the street from Dr. Karpinski office in Fort Pierce Fl. I had been a patient with both offices since November of 2018. I was given a referral to an implant Dr. in Vero? He was charging 2,500 per implant. We told the Nurse at Smooth Sailing, how ridiculously high that Dr. was. She then recommended Dr. Karpinski. I had a lot of work done at Smooth Sailing Dental and stated my concerns about the fact that I was going to be on the Road in April. I experienced lies and pain at incredibly high prices. I had Dr Shah as my Dentist. After her shots My gums hurt for week on end only to have her hurt me again and their lab technicians are horrible poorly made. So many visit and this Friday the day I was supposed to have all my teeth in after they got paid up front as they require I was not able to get all my teeth. She is going to tell me after she checked everything and ordered the parts that my back Implant had fallen in her hand and then changed her story in front of my Husband that it was lose. She put the abruptments in before ordering the parts then tells me on Friday those lie. Then had the audacity to tell me I needed a new one and tell my Husband she would do it for $3,000. She gave me so many shots then wanted to give me another one after tearing tissue off my gums. Needlessly say we were there from 1:49 till 5:09. So many trips from Grant FL to Fort Pierce making sure everything was as it should be. I find it disgusting at her so called professional treatment. Granted is is Beautiful however she is Heartless and quite unprofessional. She obviously hasn't a clue of how to do her job and lied about the implant being lose or falling in her hand. I believe she made it lose when she was twisting abruptment and then tried covering it up and wanting to get more money at a much higher price without the experience and more torcher. I left there in pain and disappointment of how greedy and uncaring she truly is. I went to Our Angel Dr. Karpinski and he tried to help us He went out of his way and made me some temporary teeth on my right side in the back so I can go to my new job with some what of a smile. Dr. Karpinski charges 1,250. Per implant. How can someone like Dr. Shah sleep at night. Dr. Long knew what was going on and never came out of his office. This is what I call the Rat Race!! Disgusting, Heartless, and Greed. I will only trust Dr. Karpinski because he experienced and is caring towards his patients. Thank You Angel Karpinski

I'm new to the Vero Beach area and was overdue for a dental checkup and cleaning. I'd left behind…read morean excellent dental team at my previous home, so the search for a new dentist came with some hesitation. After a bit of online research and chatting with a few locals, I decided to schedule a visit with Christie Dental in Sebastian - - and I'm really glad I did. From the first contact, the staff was friendly, helpful, and professional. Scheduling was easy, and they got me in quickly as a new patient. A big shoutout to Kathryn, the dental assistant, who made the experience feel much more relaxed than I expected. She's upbeat, kind, and has the kind of personality that helps take the edge off--especially for those of us whose blood pressure rises a bit in a dentist's chair! Dr. Cohen was great--thorough, easygoing, and best of all, not pushy. No hard sells for extra services, just practical and professional care. It's refreshing to find a dental office that balances quality with a down-to-earth approach. I feel like I've found my new go-to dental office. Highly recommend if you're looking for honest, quality care in the Sebastian/Vero Beach area.
