She was honest with me and told me my tooth may be a chore to get out but assured me that I wouldn't feel a thing. Her assistant was wonderful as well and played along with our convo.

If I could leave 0 stars, I would. I had been a patient at…read morethis office for years, so this experience was incredibly disappointing. My routine cleaning had been scheduled for nearly a year. Then, two days before my appointment, they called to tell me they no longer accepted my insurance. What makes it even more frustrating is that I had already received a letter from my insurance company stating this office would become out of network in late August. When I politely mentioned the letter because I was trying to understand the discrepancy, the receptionist (I believe her name was Britton or Brittany) responded in an incredibly rude, condescending tone: "No. We stopped accepting Aetna July 1st." There was no explanation, no apology, and no effort to be helpful. To make matters worse, they didn't notify me until July 20th, despite having my appointment scheduled for the entire year, and even having me confirm it beforehand. They had plenty of opportunities to let me know so I could find another provider instead of waiting until the last minute. Since they no longer accepted my insurance, I was told a routine cleaning would cost over $200 out of pocket. While I understand offices can choose which insurance plans they accept, it's hard not to question why long-time patients weren't informed much sooner. Waiting until the last minute left me with the choice of paying hundreds of dollars or scrambling to find another dentist. To be clear, I understood that once they stopped accepting my insurance, I was going to find another dentist anyway. What earned this review wasn't that decision, it was how they handled it. The poor communication, the last-minute notice, and the rude way I was spoken to turned what could have been an understandable business change into a terrible patient experience. It certainly left me wondering whether the decision to stop accepting my insurance earlier than expected benefited the office financially. After years of being a patient, I expected much better.

He saved me a fortune in advanced medical testing when he diagnosed the cause of my facial nerve pain. It was chronic clenching of my jaw when stressed. He showed me how I had worn down molars in an odd pattern from my habit of having my teeth all touching whenever my mouth was shut. He recommended against an expensive appliance and advised a temporary lightweight retainer to retrain me away from my clenching habit. Within a week the blinding electric shocks in my right maxilla stopped. He spends his time with you, I have never felt rushed. I live in Nashville and my whole family travels to Shelbyville to see him. My husband enjoys his sedation dentistry service-he is never nervous about seeing the dentist now.

Dr said he would fix it temporarily... Well as life has it my world go crazy and the temporary was fine until it finally broke and i made a appointment to get it fixed. When I went in to get it fixed and i was told i would have to pay for it now because it had been to long... As a business owner myself,i didn't realize there was any time line for something he broke... and because i haven't been going enough i was told i couldn't even get a cost break on replacing it which i haven't to replace the whole bridge now... i really think everyone needs to think twice about going to this office, i have been there when the Dr's hands shake really bad (how my bridge got broke) i wasnt going to say anything as long as he was willing to fix his mistake but now i think everyone needs to be aware

Took my special needs son in today for tooth pain because they take Tenncare Wellpoint. I realise…read morepeople have bad days; my son does, I do and a dentist can (I hope that's what this was). But honestly, the bedside manner and professionalism of the doctor he saw shocked me. I've seen lots of difficult patients in my life, but never reacted to nor seen another medical professional treat or speak to a patient like this dentist did my son. He got scared, and the dentist, mid injection, said, we're not doing this today and slammed his syringe down and huffed off, leaving the room: no apology, no explaination, no plan, nothing. It was very strange. The tech offered an antibiotic, even thought they both said there was no infection. But they left my boy mid-extraction, numb, with no communication other than, we're not going to be your dentist. I have fired and declined to see patients before, but this came out of the blue, a complete overreaction to a special needs kid who was scared. I'm hoping we'll receive an apology or an explanation. And a doctor yelling at a patient out loud in the waiting room is unacceptable, and a borderline HIPAA violation. If I were this dentist or his office staff, I'd be embarrassed and ashamed. Please do better, especially with special needs individuals. If we don't hear from them, I'll file a complaint with Medicaide. He said, out loud, that we wouldn't be charged, and we were no longer considered patients of his, but that's not the point. And I'm REALLY unsure what my son did that merited such an extreme reaction. I'll call back later to ask. I was so shocked, we just left. It felt abusive and negligent.
