This is the worst dentist I have ever been to. On my 2nd or 3rd visit, the gal at billing informed…read moreme that I already had an upper denture which has been paid for by Medicaid. WHAT? What I had in my upper jaw was several teeth that had become infected, including one which had broken off at the gum line. I was very upset to discover that they had made such a major error. When I checked into switching dentists, Medicaid wouldn't approve it because the work had supposedly already been done. So, I was forced to stay with Summit. Summit referred me to an oral surgeon so that I could (finally) get my infected upper teeth removed under sedation and then immediately fit me with an upper denture. When I called Summit to touch base right before all my upper teeth were pulled, the staff member who answered was a font of misinformation. She told me that I didn't have to come in to be fit for dentures because that had already been done. Then she abruptly hung up. Naturally, when I showed up at the oral surgeon's a few days later, they did not have my upper plate because it had never been made. I had to start over from square one. I finally had my upper teeth pulled 3 days ago and had my upper denture put in. Summit Family lied to me again and told me that I would NEVER have to come back to have my denture checked for proper fit, etc. I asked my oral surgeon if this was true. He was very surprised and told me that "no," I needed to have the denture inspected and that I should call Summit the very next day for an appointment. Well, I've now got an appointment for March 30, but I wish it could be with anyone EXCEPT Summit. Having all my teeth pulled is proving to be quite the ordeal, and I don't know where to turn for help. Do NOT use Summit Dental if you value your own well being.

And when I ended up missing an appointment 4 months later because my dog had needs for an emergency vet appointment, which became priority, they, rather than reschedule me, dismissed me as a patient. For your own good don't use Summit Family Dental. I showed them loyalty as a patient, yet was shown none in return. But rather, I feel as though I was thrown away without regard or concern as to the cause that my appointment was missed. They were quite heartless and rude. RSS

We've been thrilled w/her care! She tries to save your tooth & save us money, & even told me ways to whiten my real teeth to better match my crowns, something I was surprised our old dental place never suggested, KNOWING I hated the color difference! Dr. T. is very gentle, thoughtful & altho' her office isn't as "fancy" as the other, she obviously cares ore about her patients & saving us money than getting more of our money for new chairs, etc. As my hubby & I hate debt, we appreciate a frugal person who does a GREAT job. Too many look great on the outside, but for example miss things Dr. Thompson found! HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!.
