On Friday, May 23, knowing we are about to go into a three day holiday weekend I was panicked…read morecalling around, trying to get in to see an endodontist because the day before I had gone to an emergency dentist for some really bad pain and they told me I needed a root canal to treat a broken tooth. I had never had a root canal or anything like this before so I was navigating this very painful and very scary thing for the first time. I must've called 20 different offices trying to get some relief because Friday morning when I woke up, the pain was excruciating. I called the Oregon Endodontic Group and I was lucky enough to get Emily in the office on the phone. Knowing they had a packed schedule, heading into an extended holiday weekend she put me on hold two different times in attempt to help me. She was unable to guarantee me anything, but told me she would take my Information and call me if someone canceled. After many more calls, my phone rang and it was Emily. She told me she couldn't guarantee me a root canal, but that she would figure something out and told me to head down and that they would try to squeeze me in, in-between appointments. As I called many places desperately seeking help, I didn't get anyone to give me the time of day, but she (Emily) had clearly put in extra work and care to help me. As a result, she was able to get me in a chair and eventually evaluated by the Endodontist. Dr. Tarsa suggested I have the tooth extracted as she felt like there was a good chance it couldn't be saved. I actually had an appointment with another endodontist to have the root canal done on Tuesday but Dr. Tarsa clearly had my best interests at heart which I viewed as showing honesty and integrity. She doesn't do extractions so I was worried about having to wait through the weekend again as I would need to see an oral surgeon for this. Emily was back in my corner calling surgeons trying to get me in. Finally, she got an oral surgeon across town to agree to squeeze me in which was a miracle. I went across town to Three Rivers Oral Surgery and they got me in right before they closed (they stayed late for me). In a world where it is sometimes a challenge to find someone that truly care's for the customer, Emily was my savior. I could tell during my first phone call to the office. She wanted to help me. I don't actually think anyone canceled, I think she continued to advocate for me after my call and promptly called me back. If it wasn't for her, it would've been a painful and rough weekend for me. Instead, I had a pain-free wonderful weekend with my family. Words can't describe how much I appreciate her care and efforts to help me. If everyone in the medical industry had office personnel like her the world would be a better place. From the bottom of my heart Emily, thank you.

She was almost threatening, like "why would that matter". I was thinking to myself -- it absolutely matters if your insurance is accepted, as to whether you can afford it or not. Hello?!! I was appalled by her tone, her threat as though they're entitled to have clients choose them even if they have to pay out of pocket. I was so glad it wasn't me in that conversation, I might not have taken it as well as she did. Poor lady! It really shook me up, I don't think we'll continue to go there, super strange vibe.

Aside from their great dental work, they really seem to care about people. I know that one of the dentists goes on missions in foreign countries to help the poor with basic dentistry.

So, while the practice is located in an affluent area + their techniques appear to be state of the art; they also take the time to help the less fortunate, which speaks volumes about the people associated with the practice.

I was able to get the root canal done just a few days afterwards, so no problems there. Dr. Barry is super personable and my procedure was virtually pain free. His assistants ( I met 2) were very nice and made my experience the best that it could have possibly been under the circumstances. So why the 3 stars? The 3 women at the front desk are just...cold and unpleasant to deal with. Never have I met less friendly and accomodating front office staff at a dental office. I am shocked that Dr. Barry, given his personality, allows for such attitude from the people who are the face of his practice. I am also taking a star off because his fees are pretty high. He does not offer cash discounts and almost $500 for the initial exam is just too much, in my opinion.
