    I if could give no stars I would. I have one wisdom tooth and it was not hurting me. I was not in a…read morerush for an appointment because there was no pain, but I made an appointment and March was their earliest slot. A couple of weeks later the wisdom tooth fractured, but still no pain. A few weeks after that, pain started that was quit severe and my right Jaw looked like I was storing nuts for the winter. I call OMS and I state that this is an emergency and I need an emergency appointment. The receptionist told me about my March appointment. When I said emergency, she should have got off her behind and check with one of the surgeons to see if they could fit me in, she did not. She kept on telling me I had an appointment in March. After that encounter I was in pain and very angry. The next day my sister took me to the ER and they managed to get me an emergency appointment for a St. Luke's dentist on chew street. The doctor looked in my mouth and said I don't do extractions. My question, why did they send me there if this dentist did not do the service I needed? However, this doctor gave me a new referral with STAT for the urgency and a list of all the oral surgeon in the Valley. Instead of leaving this dentist office I started calling and found a dentist that had an emergency slot for the next day. This doctor stated that this WAS an EMERGENCY and asked if I wanted to remove the tooth that day. Long story short, this dentist removed that fracture wisdom tooth and drained any infection he saw. I was giving post op instructions, but the next morning I looked I still looked like a chipmunk and the pain had me rocking and crying. My sister took me back to the hospital in Allentown (St Luke's). I was told that I needed to be transferred to the Bethlehem location. I waited in the ER over night and at least they gave me pain medication. The next morning the ER doctor told me he was getting transport arranged and I was going to be admitted directly from the ER to the Bethlehem OR. Once I got to Bethlehem I was taken directly to the Operating room. Even though the tooth was gone there was a raging infection that had been brewing for some time. This surgery seems to go well, but I was still taking pain medication, and could not open my mouth wide enough to eat. I went home the next day and I was happy to sleep in my own bed. I went out to make sure I had things I needed before the snow coming the next morning. On the way home I got a call from St. Luke's Allentown informing me to go to the Bethlehem hospital because one of the blood cultures came back positive. I was admitted and have been fighting the infection with IV antibiotics since, long story short I had Septis. As I write this I am propped up and still in the hospital.The surgeon put in two drains; one inside my mouth and a drain on the outside of my face and gave no instruction on How they are to be close, especially the drain inserted by my jaw line. This surgeon only concern was about how everything looked better and telling me that I did not have pain when I felt horrible pain; did I mentioned this was a ST. Luke's OMS surgeon! I wonder if I punched him in the groin, could I tell him what pain he was is feeling. That goes to show you that the "color of care" and racial health care disparities are alive and well. My main concern is the sepsis in my blood could have a major issue with my heart, Pacemaker, and other vital organs. With all of what I said, this could have been avoided if the OMS gatekeeper could fit me in when I originally called. If my surgery was done at a reasonable time and date, the infection would not have grown because it was first time that tooth socket would be open due the extraction and, most likely I would not had to drain, instead of days later allowed the infection to grow. I will never get the time returning to ER, hospital stay, and slow recovery at back. I am really disgusted with St. Luke's OMS and would never go to them for anything ever. (Updated 3/15/2024) With all the IV antibiotics, two weeks later I developed Clostridioides Difficile and a horrible UTI. C-Diff is highly contagious and the symptoms are diarrhea, fever, nausea, vomiting, headaches, dizziness, and basically feeling like you want to die. Once again all this could have been avoided. I am still recovering from this horrible infection. You can read about this https://www.cdc.gov/cdiff/what-is.html.n If you read what the CDC has to say about C. Diff; this infection could have killed me. Shame on you St Luke's OMS. The first part of this review was written at the end of January while I was still in the hospital, but was not posted.

    *Be warned this is going to be long but I am disappointment and want to share my story. If you want…read moreto be totally prepared for what you may be getting yourself into by going through this office for dental work, please read on* I was referred to this office by my dentist, who wanted me seen for wisdom teeth removal & extracting a broken tooth. It took me almost three months to even schedule a consult, I called multiple times and nobody answered, I left multiple voicemails and nobody called me back. Once I was lucky enough to have someone answer me, the appointment they offered was in September, I talked to them in MAY. Fast forward to the end of June & I begin having serious problems with my broken tooth. The nerve was exposed so every time I tried to eat/drink/swallow I had extreme pain shooting up my face. I called and of course nobody answered, I left a message about seeing if I could get in sooner and nobody called me back. After 2 weeks of pain and almost no eating, I finally had enough and called my dentist to try and contact them for me. They told me they'd call them to get me in for an *emergency appointment* (that part is important). Well of course they didn't answer my dentist's office and a message was left. They call me the next morning saying I was on a "cancellation list" (which was a lie) and I could be seen that day at 11:45. Great! I took the day off work for this thinking something would be done since I was told *emergency appointment*. I go in to the office, they only saw me for a consultation. I tell them my dentist's office told me Id be coming for an emergency appointment for my painful broken tooth that's hindering basic necessary things for living, I get told "they gave you misinformation and that's not right". They tell me I can schedule my surgery and offered me, again, SEPTEMBER. I was in tears and begging the girl at the window to schedule to please get me in sooner because I just could not deal with the pain any longer. Thankfully, they had an extra surgeon coming in from the hospital doing surgeries and I got a spot the next week. Awesome, all is done I get my surgery and can finally recover from 3-4 weeks of pure hell. Now since the day of my consultation my job put me on a medical leave because I am a nurse and how can you possibly do that job in such extreme pain you can't think straight. I explained this to them at the office and asked the doctor if he'd do my medical leave papers, which he said yes he had no problem with doing. He messed up my paperwork and didn't listen to a single thing I said and only did the forms for 2 shifts after surgery. I was out for 6 shifts. Thankfully my manager knew what was going on & suggested the leave or I could've gotten disciplinary action against me and compromised my position because of this. You also cannot call the office directly even after you are a patient there, all my paperwork has the same all locations number that nobody ever answers or returns your call from messages left. What if I had a serious problem after surgery? You can't get ahold of anybody. That is DANGEROUS! On a positive note, thankfully I seem to be healing well. I am 3 weeks out from my surgery, feel fantastic, and am back to my normal routine. I had minimal issues after surgery which I am also very thankful for. I wanted to wait until I was "out of the woods" to write a review because I feared retaliation or mistreatment if I did need help. The only reasons they even get 2 stars: I saw Dr. Isaac for my consultation and she was nothing but absolutely amazing. Very calming and reassuring, and put together a surgical plan that would be the most comfortable for me including taking into consideration my anxiety diagnosis and phobia of the dental work. Dr. Sharma did my surgery, besides messing up my paperwork he was excellent for the procedure and had a positive demeanor in the room beforehand, making jokes and trying to ease my nerves. Serena was who helped me during the scheduling process, she went out of her way to get me the appointment I got when she very well could've just told me too bad I had to wait. Honestly the most helpful person from this entire ordeal. It's sad this is so poorly run because the actual staff there are fantastic, but for a patient to even get seen there it's a very off putting experience. Overall, good staff doesn't negate what I went through during this whole thing. Majorly disappointing.

    PATIENT BEWARE! Recent new patient visit to Lawrence Dental. Their website offers first…read morecomprehensive oral evaluation, NOT TRUE! They actually billed our Delta Dental insurance for my first visit, D0150 for $131! AND to make matters worse, they lied about having me be able to use my Itex account. For those of you who don't know what Itex is, it's a platform businesses use to barter for services. You can Google 'Itex' as well. So my first visit entailed an evaluation for a tooth extraction. With my Itex account and PRIOR to the visit, Kimberly confirmed that I would be able to use my funds in my Itex account to pay for the extraction since my dental insurance didn't cover it. So I scheduled with them and went over everything with the so-called complimentary evaltions with regard to my extraction I even confirmed again that I would be able to use Itex. They said the extraction would be between $5000 and $6000. A few weeks went by to receive the predetermination. When it was emailed to me, the estimate was $9161! WHAT? Not even close to the $5-6K estimate. Then when I called them to go over it, they then said they were transitioning to a 'new management' (whatever that means since the name Lawrence Dental never changed), and they no longer will be taking Itex as payment under their new management and I would not be able to use my Itex funds to pay for the extraction. I explained to them what they just put me throught, they didn't care at all. So I just wasted all this time and money with Lawrence Dental. They are not to be trusted, they lie, get everything in writing, and never again.

    Highway robbery. They charged me nearly $300 for a routine visit that occurred 8 and a half months…read moreago, a visit that would normally be covered by my insurance. However, Lawrence Dental said the claim was rejected because it was made too late. They had said that the delay was due to a software conversion on their end, so my insurance company had rejected the payment. I just found out from the insurance company that they paid for the visit back in July and they do not understand where the $300 amount is coming from. Now, Lawrence Dental is not picking up the phone. It is well within their business hours and they are not in the office. I just got scammed out of $300. Do not go here.

    This practice has completely changed. I would never go here again and I wish I had stopped going…read moremany years ago. In more recent times I experienced Dr. Low being distracted and constantly running out of the room while I was in the chair. On my last cleaning here I waited nearly 20 minutes for her to come in to check my teeth after the hygienist was done. I actually stepped out of the room and asked them to get Dr. Low to come and look because I couldn't wait any longer. Her look was extremely fast and with her naked eye. I pointed out where I thought there was an issue to her to which she said everything was "fine". That was 7 months before what came next and involved the very issue I had asked her about. I've now been suffering for 2 years due to work done by Dr. Low that should never have been needed in the first place. The test of your dentist is when you need actual work. She says she's conservative but there was a tooth she filled years ago that she was concerned about at the time, that it could be an issue again. (Which I've only recently learned that she should have sent me to an endodontist then and there.) And when I thought the tooth was an issue again a few years later, she dismissed it. An X-ray later - she still thought there was a start of something but nothing worth opening the tooth up for. Every dentist (about 5 of them now) who has seen that X-ray has asked why Dr. Low didn't do a root canal then and there. Instead, 6 weeks later I had a full blown mouth infection with puss in my gums. Dr. Low put a mini-implant in where the tooth had been without even telling me what she was planning to do. And it was done without precision, tools, or anything of the sort - it was shoved in my mouth all in one shot. It has been uncomfortable and a problem ever since. I've seen many specialists in trying to figure out how to correct the situation. Every single one of them has looked at me with horror saying they've never seen a mini-implant used to replace a single tooth and that it's like a toothpick with a bowling ball on the end. I would recommend to anyone be sure to get a full explanation of the work that they plan to do here BEFORE that work begins, don't just let them get started, and I would highly suggest getting a second opinion when this practice recommends a mini-implant if you do not have dentures. (The mini-implant was done before they started advertising full blown that they are mini-implant center.) I thought I was going to have a proper consult about what would be done and that all of the right options would be considered. That did not happen. I'm regretful that my original glowing review of this practice has likely led plenty of people here and that I sent people I personally know here. This is not the same place as it was when I wrote that first review.
