We knew this Dentist as from a friend of the family and he was always wonderful. When I called the…read morereceptionist yesterday she was extremely rude and must have told the Dr resulting in him calling my father saying that I was rude. This is 100% not true, I'm a aspiring Hare Krsna devotee and we practice tolerance and never upset anyone. I was compassionate and she was not understanding of my unique situation and kept telling me the same stuff like a robot. She wanted me to come in for a 15 min appointment when I live 3000 miles away and was not compassionate, kind, or understanding or the situation. She ended the call rudely and said fine, have your Dad call him. Today My father called me and told me the Dr Shecklian called him and said I was rude which is an exaggerated tale, and I really wish I had the call recorded. This is not normal behavior for a grown women working in a dentist office. I talk to people all day long from around the world and rarly have any problems with anyone. Anyone who knows me, Knows I'm beyond reasonable and never rude or judgmental to anyone but the way this women dealt with me was not polite and I would never hire someone who can't communicate with customers. I run over ten companies and rarely have problems with anyone and when I do I immediately resolve them though empathy and a loving heart. Customer service is #1 in any business and the fact that Im an past patient and need medical treatment for an emergency and get treated like this is NOT OK. This dentist is awesome and highly skilled and Im sad he hung up on my father as my father always thought highly of Mark. Apparently Mark hung up on my father after he called him and told him what the secretary exaggerated. Not to mention he said that he doesn't wanna have me as a patient anymore. This is crazy, What a crazy world we live in. This secretary needs to take some classes on communication and emotional stability. I would erase this message when we could have a three way call talking about what really happened as this is a big lie and I don't tolerate lies. Hare Krsna!

Outrageous prices, slick misleading "savings" plans, inexperienced employee (not owner) dentists…read more My experience was more painful than a root canal without novocain. They post obscenely high prices to get you to pay $300 to join their "savings" plan. After applying the 30% plan discount the prices go down to merely unconscionable. I went to a simple deep cleaning. At the first appointment I was charged $664 which means the original charge was $863, which seemed high but acceptable. I waited more than 30 minutes to get the cleaning, which took no more than 25 minutes I just went back today to get the second half done and was told I owed $664. I laughed and said, no I paid that last time. To her credit, the woman at desk looked embarrassed but said that was for the first half and I owed another $664. This means that the total bill would have been $1328, which was reduced 30% by my paying $300 to join their "savings" plan, making the actual charge for a routine deep cleaning $1726. To add insult to injury, they charge a 3% fee to use your credit card. Judging by the lack of surprise and embarrassment of the staff when I complained about this I am not the first person to feel this way. I saw no dentist, only a hygienist. I was in the chair for no than 25 minutes. I waited almost 30 minutes for treatment. When I was kept waiting again for the second visit I cancelled. I'll never go back to them again.

I feel so lucky to have gotten a cleaning about 6 months back because just recently I ran into a dental emergency where a crown fell out and luckily I had somewhere to go. They got me in that day - and were so nice and thorough. It's obviously not a fun experience and they made me feel at ease. I'm opting to do a few additional teeth for aesthetic reasons and I felt no pressure to make that decision. Thank you to the whole staff for making this a pleasant, non stressful experience!!

When my elderly father badly needed dental care from years of neglect and a broken bridge (that was…read morethen fashioned into partial dentures that were held together precariously with gobs of Fixodent), Dr. Gardiner came highly recommended. We were told he was someone who, not only had the skill and artistry to fix his teeth, but also had the trust of all his patients to do it correctly, thoroughly, and efficiently. Not only were we not disappointed in everything that was said about him, we were blown away by the level of professionalism and courteousness of every member of his team. Within a few short weeks, all of my father's dental woes were eradicated, with 16 fillings, eroded gums and exposed teeth roots built up and protected, and a permanent and strong new bridge. Dr. Gardiner has a new customer for life with my father, and we can't emphasize enough how much we appreciate all the work he put into giving my dad his confidence back with a beautiful and healthy smile! We highly recommend him for any of your dental needs. You'll be so glad you entrusted yourself in his care! Thy Cavagnaro - on behalf of my dad - Ky Nguyen
