I recently had the opportunity to visit Doctor Stephen Kuzmak for dental work. I previously had…read moretwo root canals performed by an endodontist in Timonium and it didn't go great and in return caused breakage to my teeth. I have always had a fear of dentist because of past experiences which were very painful. I researched top dentist in Maryland and I came across Dr. Kuzmak, Towson View Dental Care and decided to give them a call and make an appointment. I was very nervous about the visit because I had two broken teeth with only the roots left in my gums. Upon my arrival I was meant by a warm and welcoming staff. Dr. Kuzmack himself came out to the waiting area to greet me and to offer me a bottle of water. That definitely helped take the edge off. He explained everything to me before he began the procedure. I always brace myself for the initial needle stick and deep burning that follows from the Novocaine... However to my surprise Dr. Kuzmack pulls out a device that he uses in conjunction with the needles that massages your gums during injection which helped to alleviate any pain! I was totally taken back that I did not feel ANY pain the entire procedure. No pain from the needle or the root extraction. If you are in need of any dental work and have a fear that there may be pain, or you are in search of quality dental service Dr. Kuzmack of Towson View Dental Care should be your #1 choice!

My smile was impeccable. I lost my retainer and immediately came to Dr. Snyder's office, as I have previously had a good experience. I came and had to pay $185 for an exam and scan. This had nothing to do with the actual retainer i wanted made. As i was to get fitted for my retainer the office told me they were short staffed so i would have to come back for my fitting-- 3 weeks later. I wish i would have gone elsewhere. Every single day that passes my teeth shift. And TODAY, the day of my fitting , as I prepare to drive TWO HOURS for my appointment, Dr Snyder's office calls to say their machine broke down. I must now be rescheduled AGAIN. They induced reliance and failed to deliver. My smile is gone and i now require invisalign. Their response? $50 off my retainer. Do yourself and your smile a favor and find a more reliable business.

Took all my details and in the end asked me if I was having any problems, when I told her yes, she tells me they don't have anything available until mid-December. When I told her she should have asked me that first we could have saved us some time, she's like you should have told me that first. Seriously? That was really rude. On a side note, before calling her I tried to make an online appointment on their site and after filling out the form the site breaks and throws an error. Time wasted there too. I understand technical problems happen but when you got a human receptionist with an attitude like that, there's something wrong. Hope this saves people some time.

I scheduled, and due to my own fault, I missed the appointment. I called the next day after realizing it, and was met with the MOST rude office manager. She told me that I was blocked from making a new appointment because I missed my "new patient" appointment. I told her I'd been in once before and she said b/c it was an EMERGENCY appointment that I was still considered "new" (mind you this isn't my primary dentist but I was thinking of switching over) so they basically BANNED me for accidentally mixing up the date of my appointment. I went in the office to personally speak with someone in charge and to my surprise, the office manager didn't give the same energy she had over the phone once I dropped in- she then offered to speak with someone to see if I "could get rescheduled" which I later found out SHE could've easily done the reschedule. I don't know what type of games this office is playing, and everytime I've been in there they are empty- they should want the business. I called to the Towson office was promised a call back by the owners and that NEVER happened- that was a week ago. So, I'd say take your business elsewhere if you can.

I'll first start by saying that we are pleased with the experience we have had with our dentists…read more The service is great, and our boys have had positive experiences which is important as they are young. With that said, the front-end experience has been poor. A little background. I received an Explanation of Benefits from my dental insurance company (Delta) along with a check. I asked if my ex-wife had paid anything out of pocket, and I was told no, she hadn't. I called the dentists' office to ask why I received the check. I was told that my boys saw Dr. Shelton that day. I was then informed that Dr. Shelton doesn't take Delta while Dr. Gibbons does. Weird, but ok - I know doctors carry their own insurances, but I find it odd that the practice doesn't carry the same insurance for all providers. I did confirm that their appointment was with Dr. Gibbons, but when they showed up, my ex-wife was told that they would see Dr. Shelton that day since Dr. Gibbons was out. No big deal. But, at no time was she informed about the lack of Delta insurance coverage with Dr. Shelton or what would happen if she saw someone who didn't cover their insurance (end result is not a big deal as you will see, but ugh to the lack of communication). I digress - back to the check I received. I was told that I would need to endorse the check and return it to their office. Ok, also not a big deal. I then asked if they could make a note in their system about the insurance coverage so that in the future this wouldn't happen. This is where things go off the rails. I was told that it was MY responsibility to understand which of their doctors carried Delta and that it was my responsibility to ensure that I was seeing the correct doctor (wild). I asked how I was supposed to know that Dr. Shelton didn't cover Delta and why that would be my responsibility. I was assured that they told my ex-wife about it at some point. I won't go into "she said-she said" said details about what the receptionist and my ex had to say, but their stories differ. The receptionist began to get very short with me to the point where she said our conversation was unbelievable. She even asked if I would be cancelling the boys' future appointments so that I could create two openings for other customers (excuse me?). I explained as calmly as I could that I wanted to prevent this from happening again as driving the check and EOB to their office was inconvenient to which her retort was that I could just mail it in instead (also inconvenient). We ended the conversation without cancelled appointments but some frustration on both sides - I don't think she liked her (their?) quality practices being called into question. If you're still considering this practice (which you should in my opinion), take the following tips - 1) Know if both doctors take your insurance so that if something unexpected happens, you know who you can and can't see 2) Call ahead to make sure that you and/or your children will be seeing the doctor they are scheduled with that day to avoid an unexpected switcharoo like we experienced It's worth repeating- we have had very good experiences with this dental practice in general; however, I'm reviewing the practice as a whole. The lack of communication and the front-office rudeness I experienced are being taken into account. I'd give it 3.5 stars if I could, but I'll round up to 4 since it's been more good than bad.

I put appointments on the back burner for two months. I then call, set up another appointment, and that gets cancelled. Finally I am able to go to an appointment in May that isn't cancelled. I tell them I haven't had a cleaning since the prior summer. They take measurements of my gums and tell me I will have to return for my cleaning. What!??? Just clean my teeth please. The kicker is, when I go to check out, I'm told I need a deep cleaning and with insurance it will run me about $3,000. Uh, no thank you. I went somewhere else, somewhere that does not accept my insurance, and had X-rays, a cleaning, a super communicative and pleasant hygienist and dentist face time all in one visit. And, are you ready for this, it cost me so much less than what Aspen wanted to charge me. Sorry Aspen, I'm out.
