    Settle in for a long and frustrating read. I have never had a worse experience with healthcare…read more"professionals" in my life. I went in for a routine cleaning. They said I needed a crown. They ran my insurance and gave me a breakdown: I would owe about $500 after coverage. I signed the document and agreed. Then the crown turned into a root canal, handled at another location. They ran insurance again--this time I'd owe $180 more. Again, I agreed. Back at the original office to finish the crown, I went through five appointments. Only after treatment was finished did they tell me there had been an error entering my insurance information. As a result, insurance would cover none of the $3,200 total. Five painful appointments. Two locations. It took them weeks to notice the error. They admitted it was completely their fault... and still told me I had to pay in full. No accountability. When I spoke to the office administrator, she had already printed out scanned consent forms--clearly ready to deflect. She repeatedly said, "It's the patient's responsibility to understand the details of their coverage," as if it were my fault for trusting their staff. The idea that patients should be responsible for catching their mistakes is insane. Imagine discovering your bill is six times higher than you agreed to. This is clearly unethical--but sadly, legal. Treatment was done, and I had no way out. They had me exactly where they wanted me. In any other industry, this would border on criminal. But there's no law protecting patients from negligent dentists and clueless office staff. We argued for two weeks. Eventually, they agreed to cover half the balance--leaving me to pay $1,900 total (including the $800 I'd already given them). I just came in for a cleaning. Now I'm out five painful days off work and $2,000--with a root canal on a tooth that never hurt before. Other problems: The dentist was terrible at numbing. I had to stop her multiple times due to pain. The cleaning took forever. Their handheld x-ray machine malfunctioned--they fired dozens of x-rays at me trying to get it to work. Not sure that's safe. The hygienist's Dremel tool exploded while adjusting my night guard. Debris flew everywhere. No one was hurt--but it was a fitting end to my time at River Run. Avoid this place. They'll hurt your mouth and your wallet. But hey, at least they offered me a blanket.

    Midlothian Location- I cannot complain about the dental care, but trying to get an appointment or…read morereschedule is impossible!! Had to cancel my daughter's appointment in September after she was in a car accident and they were supposed to put her on the cancellation list, just found out they never added her to the list. After they scheduled me more than 6 months out (last appt June 7, then Jan 6), they were closed for weather and the new appointment ended up conflicting with a work meeting. I called to reschedule and was told the next available appointment was not until July. They have obviously taken on too many patients when you cannot reschedule within a month or two. Time to find a new dentist!

    I recently had some rather extensive dental work done by Dr. Woodard at the Colony Crossing…read morelocation. I was given the option of a local or general anesthesia. Admittedly somewhat hesitant, I chose a local only. Dr. Woodard made the entire procedure pain free and was kind, communicative and thoroughly professional at all times, as was the assistant. Being relatively new to the area, I 'tried' two other dental practices before going to Commonwealth Dentistry. I will not need to look any further. The entire staff are the ' best of the best' and I can't say enough about the quality of care with Dr. McKenzie Woodard! Thank you!

    I was was stuck finding a new dentist last minute and came across Commonwealth Dentistry-…read moreMidlothian. From my initial email inquiring on service I was able to get in for a new patient appointment and cleaning. My appointment went great. The staff was all phenomenal and polite, and the actual dental work was exceptional. I felt it was very thorough and left feeling confident that my smile is being taken care of. I was also able to get in next day to get molds for a much needed new retainer, as the one I had was falling apart in my mouth. Everything went great and super quick. I was in and out. Even with my top set giving us trouble, the staff hung on and never lost patience. Wonderful. If you are in the market for a new dentist, look no further. Commonwealth Dentistry is the best!

    Avoid This Dental Office at All Costs…read more I'm writing this to warn others before they go through the nightmare I experienced. I trusted this practice because my daughter recommended it, and I regret not doing my own research. From the start, there were red flags, but I pushed forward anyway because their billing department was surprisingly efficient and had everything pre-approved. The dentist, Dr. Alexander, also had much more availability than others, which should've been a major warning sign in itself. Unfortunately, this turned out to be one of the worst decisions of my life. Dr. Alexander Simon, (or vice versa he has 2 first names) without a doubt, the most careless, heavy-handed, and clumsy dentist I have ever encountered. Despite having a good support staff, it's clear he's a micromanager who insists on doing everything himself -- even routine cleanings, which were the roughest and most uncomfortable I've ever experienced. He overbooks appointments, rushing back and forth between patients with little care or focus. I learned later that this is because when he's not here, he practices dentistry in India, squeezing in as many appointments as possible before leaving. During my implant process, I felt more like a test subject than a patient. He was abrasive and dismissive throughout the procedure, even laughing while I gagged and choked on water he flooded my mouth with. I was in visible discomfort, and rather than showing concern, he found it amusing. He repeatedly pressed metal tools against my lips with no delicacy or consideration. Once the anesthesia wore off, I was in excruciating pain that lasted far longer than normal. I later discovered that he had gashed my gumline, making it extremely painful to eat or even drink water. When I brought this up to him, he laughed again--like my pain was some sort of joke. I even asked if he'd like me to try it on him so he could understand how it felt. Despite the trauma, I continued with the implant procedure because I had already paid and assumed it was too late to change providers. About a year later, the implant started coming loose and causing severe pain. I didn't want to go back, but most dentists wouldn't see another doctor's implant patient, so I felt stuck. When I returned, Dr. Alexander Simon refused to take any responsibility. He blamed my pain on teeth grinding--something no other provider has ever diagnosed me with. I reminded him that he had gashed my gums previously and insisted he shouldn't bill my insurance again for a problem he likely caused. He casually offered to "work something out," as if that could undo the damage he'd already done. I didn't care if he offered to fix it for free--I wouldn't trust him with my mouth ever again. What's worse is that I later filed a complaint with the dental licensing board, only to find that someone else had experienced *the exact same issue*--a gashed gumline caused by this same man. It's unbelievable and infuriating. Now, because of Dr. Alexander's negligence, I need gum grafts and a completely new implant. My insurance won't cover it because they already paid once. Meanwhile, he had the audacity to bill my insurance again just for seeing me--even after everything. I'm furious, heartbroken, and honestly traumatized. I truly hope this man loses his license. No one deserves to experience this kind of incompetence and disregard for patient welfare. Please don't make the same mistake I did. Do your own research, listen to your instincts, and stay far away from this practice.

    I have been a patient of Dr. Simon since 2021. As someone who has historically "dentist hopped" due…read moreto unpleasant experiences, I have enjoyed my experiences with Dr. Simon and his staff greatly. He ties for first place in my top 2 dentists ever. The staff is always friendly, compassionate and thorough. Having a great dental team ensures that I keep faithful to regular 6-month checkups. I cannot recommend this practice more!
