I set a first appt. at Old Towne Dentist after reading reviews for Dr. Houpt, which were very good…read more After being seated in the dental chair I heard Dr. Houpt was part time retiring and I would be seeing Dr. Redgate whom I had no background check or reviews. I thought I Would see Dr. Houpt and thought he was the only dentist there. I continued with the first appointment with a laundry list of recommended work for my 71 year old teeth including replacing old fillings etc. In the world or unlimited funds and time maybe that would be a good plan. I was going to wait to see the cost associated with the proposed plan which I have yet to receive. The purpose of my visit was to get a quote for bonding for chipped front teeth, nothing else was bothering me. I was also interested in the cost of veneers. When I got home I checked online what I could and learned Dr. Redgate had excellent school history for Dentristy, apparently worked as a dentist in the military and the only history I could find of dentistry in general public was in CA in 2021, changing offices in 2023 and now at Old Towne Dental in WA.. I certainly cannot know if there is more history with general public - this is what I could find online. I would love to see real patient reviews both from California and Washington. While serving as a Dentist in the military is relevant, serving as a Dentist to the general public is also important. I think the skill set would have differences, but I am not a dentist. I am someone who has seen many dentists over 70 years, some bad, some good, some excellent. It is hard to know until the work is done and then it is what it is. Therefore - public reviews from prior patients are important to me. I wish it was easier to select a dentist. I wish Old Towne Dental and its associates great success and many good reviews.

He sold it to Melissa Ilgen, and I'm happy to be able to go back to a dentist in my neighborhood. And a real plus is I actually like dentist Melissa Ilgen. She bought the practice a couple of years ago, and I just started going to her about two or so months ago. She has a very caring staff from the folks in the front who deal with patients as they come in, to her hygienists and all the various assistants. They are very kind and caring people and I really appreciate that. I had to go in multiple times in order to get my night guard they made for me fixed. They couldn't seem to get it to fit properly each time, and I have another appointment next week for the same issue. That's the only issue that I've had so far. I give them a thumbs up otherwise.

My positive experiences with Dr. Couch and his staff have reduced my fear of the dentist, and I look forward to my future visits. First review: 5 stars! I've had a lot of bad dental experiences in the past, so I had a lot of trepidation about getting a temporary crown today. Dr. Couch listened to my concerns and took action to make me comfortable throughout the procedure. I felt seen and heard, and had one of the best dental experiences of my life. I plan to continue seeing Dr. Couch as my regular dentist, and already recommended him to my sister!

I was not made aware of this until checking out, or I would not have agreed to the procedure. I did ask if the X-rays were necessary and was informed they were mandatory. My suggestion is when a new, prospective patient calls in to make an appointment, it should be made clear exactly what the cost will be and why. As far as the exam is concerned, it was perfunctory and dismissive. I had nothing that needed attention...which I could have told him, or for that matter, he could have seen from my recent X-rays. As far as Dr. Couch is concerned, I found him abrasive and unprofessional, spouting a long-winded diatribe about his political beliefs and picking a fight about it, even after I said I wasn't interested in discussing politics. I would have much preferred he concentrate on my mouth, and not his!

I get two to three teeth cleanings a year (my insurance pays for 3), and my hygenist feels like family (the good family, not the . . . lol). i schedule them before i leave my last cleaning, and offten up to a year out.

She didn't have dental assistant to help her (short staff, which I didn't know until she told me) but she still did her job well. I don't have that feeling of someone rushing trying to get their job done to go to the next. I appreciate her thoroughness during the exam and cleaning. Dr. L Arthur is very nice, for short time that we talked. Quick exam was done but it's sufficient enough to talk about next plan. She has a good hygienist giving her my info beforehand. My previous dental place (4 years ago) gave me about $400 quote of what I needed to get done for my teeth. None from this place, just monitor and get back to her. No unnecessary procedure recommended which I appreciate very much. Unfortunately I need a fill just one cause it's sensitive. not bad for not going to dentist for 3 years or so.

I saw a dentist in Texas who had taken xrays and told me that i need a crown, hopefully not a root canal. I asked my cousin (who lives here) who she sees and Current was recommended so I called and was able to be seen. I emailed my Texas X-rays to them and told them my insurance. (DeltaDental) I came in and again offered my card but they didn't need a copy, they already had one. I was seen by Dr Timothy... great experience!! I needed a root canal, post and crown. They were able to do it all in one day, and since it needed to be done and i have insurance, I did it. I also needed to return for 3 fillings, so I made the appointment to return. When I came in for the follow up appt...I was met with a $2200 bill and was told that they don't take Delta Dental, it's out of network. It was like getting kicked in the gut!! I was NEVER told by anyone along the way that I was out of network. I sent a letter to the office with no response asking to reduce the bill as its not completely my fault that this happened, with NO response. I've tried to talk to the office manager who keeps saying that they train their front desk to tell everyone that delta dental is out of network. She is not willing to help me out at all THEY NEVER ONCE told me I was out of network. I would have declined service and found a dentist who is IN network. I am only asking to lower the bill but they will NOT help me out at all!!! Hoping this review saves someone else from a huge bill.

I've know Dr Kim for five years and am continually surprised by his commitment to taking care of his patients as he would treat himself. He's the most honest and humble dentist I've yet to meet, and I've come across many untrustworthy ones. As a skilled dentist myself I amazed by the quality and care he puts into his work. He's also very caring towards his staff, and genuinely concerned about their well being at work and at home. I think much of Dr Kim's ability to empathize with his patients comes from his lifelong commitment as a good husband to his wife and five children. I write this review/recommendation on yelp hoping that his current patients get to read my perspective of their dentist. Also that others who want the services a trustworthy and honest dentist, look up Dr. Kim & and Dr. Ji. Woody Utrapiromsuk DDS MBA LOMA LINDA UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF DENTISTRY
