Want to know how this business has racked up close to 400 5.0 star ratings on Google. They flag unflattering reviews instead of holding themselves accountable with their customers. I have made a dedicated site that can be found lipsondental at Wordpress if they continue to decide to try to silence my perfectly legitimate experience. Why does one honest review matter so much that they have to go to such great lengths to hide it. Its likely because most of their reviews are fake and they have hidden many more. Now I have only had an experience with one dentist and Im sure their capable of doing great work on smaller tasks and/or with other dentists. They aren't a horrible establishment who is rude and takes advantage of customers. If they would have settled this matter appropriately by refunding or not even charging me in the first place for not being able to do the job and not giving me correct counsel which led me to another dentist that "ACTUALLY" took advantage of me and continued the cycle of poor dentists that I have experienced in my life. I have not been to a single fully competent dentist in my entire life and no I am not a difficult or unreasonable person to satisfy. This is a review for anyone that maybe considering this office and believing the 5.0 star review will prevent you from having a poor experience. Their reviews are misleading. Here is a copy and paste of my original review which was removed by google's algorithm after being flagged by this office. Step your business practices up instead of flagging reviews trying to maintain your pristine image which is simply a façade and actually do right by your customers if you feel you are deserving of a 5.0 star rating, not by manipulation.
"Ill keep this short and brief if you are serviced by Ryan and are pitched to have more teeth removed or a root canal (which dentists love so much to do) than what you think is appropriate, be sure to get a second or even a third opinion. We're all humans after all and Ryan is very very human. To Lipson, you should have a policy in place to not charge customers when a customer walks out of your door after receiving no actual service. An X-ray, referral, and outlandish opinion doesn't count as service. No customer walks in your establishment just to have their X-ray taken and its no longer the latest technology. Its a tool that you, the doctor, uses to perform your job. It is of no service to the patient and no need to be nickel and dime'd under the pretense of having an X-ray taken. Just say you're charging for your sometimes ridiculous opinions and time which the patient is ultimately gambling on and hoping they are lucky enough to encounter a sane enough doctor to do the necessary job.
I was 35 at the time and experiencing no pain from my upper wisdom teeth and yet I was told I needed to have all 4 wisdom teeth taken out and two lower molars. One was already broken and root tip simply needed to be extracted and replaced with implant a repair of a cracked tooth. Another office I visited last week simply recommended one lower wisdom tooth needed to be extracted which anyone with common sense could identify. Thats 4 teeth extracted for no good reason. Don't blindly listen to doctors, especially newbies who have little wisdom and simply parrot medical literature. Here is my X-ray, judge for yourself. (For clarification) The wisdom above have not erupted and at my age likely never well. The wisdom tooth below on the left side of the image has some decay but no discomfort and is support for the molar above maintaining my bite. When it erupted it cracked the molar in front, the damage is already done. It just needs a implant in its place."
Now you decide if this is a review not worthy of being seen that it needs to be flagged and removed. Its just a honest experience. Be careful of an establishment that takes unethical measures to silence critics. If they actually held themselves to the standards of 5.0 starred business, they would encourage their customers to give feedback because it ultimately makes them better. Flagging my review is simply an attempt to protect their continued customer base and finances. They are not invested in providing high quality service, just obtaining dollars at any cost. If they have the open hands to profit off me, I should have the ability to share my experience as well. I would have certainly been willing to keep my opinion to myself had this been a free consultation since I didnt receive any actual service. Thankfully I think for myself first and dont blindly trust others no matter their title. Stay aware people! read more
