A Hygienist is not licensed to do more than clean teeth. They are prohibited by law from using a…read moredrill in anyone's mouth to shape a tooth, to do anything invasive, or that is outside the legal limits of their licensure that could harm the integrity of a tooth. Barron passes the duty to her favorite and believes that just because she's worked with her for years, that this is acceptable. That hygienist jacked my tooth leading to damage to another and Barron tried to excuse and normalize this. When I spoke out, she tried to bully me and gaslight me. Barron is a decent dentist. Her office staff are sweet. But, her hygienists act like border patrol. Her judgement and practice are not representative of CO law. This office is all about the upsale. If she says you need a root canal, get another opinion. Find someone else if you wish to avoid further financial and physical harm.

In response to Barron Family Dental's reply:…read more Before my appointment, I took deliberate steps to confirm that Barron Family Dental was in-network for my specific plan -- Cigna DPPO Advantage. I provided my physical insurance card to your front desk, explicitly asked for verification based on that plan, and was told more than once that your office and the treating provider were in-network. After receiving a significantly higher-than-expected bill, I contacted Cigna directly. During that call -- which occurred shortly after the appointment -- a Cigna representative and I searched their system for Dr. Abigail Nye. At the time, she was not listed under any Cigna network. Not just for my plan -- she simply did not appear in their provider system at all. Now, after the fact, Dr. Nye appears in Cigna's directory -- but only under the Total and Total Plus plan networks. She is still not listed under Cigna DPPO Advantage, which is the plan I have. Yet your office's own PDF -- linked on your website -- explicitly lists "Cigna DPPO Advantage Dentist" under accepted in-network plans. That was part of what influenced my decision to book with your office. The issue here is not just confusion over plan names. It's about negligent misrepresentation. I presented my insurance card, asked your staff to verify network status for my specific plan, and was assured that I was covered. Cigna's billing and coverage records -- both then and now -- do not support that assurance. I was billed at out-of-network rates because the provider was not, and is still not, in-network for my plan. Even if your network affiliations have since changed, that does not retroactively justify what happened at the time of my appointment. Patients have a legal and ethical right to rely on what they're told by a provider's staff when verifying coverage. If I had been informed honestly that the provider wasn't in-network, I would have made a different decision. This situation has caused avoidable financial harm, and I've submitted documentation to the appropriate regulatory authorities. The inconsistency between what your staff communicated, what your website claimed, and what Cigna confirmed is not acceptable. Your website says advantage dentists and I have a ppo advantage plan. Your desk people literally took my card twice and assured me I was covered, intentional or not if it wasn't untrue, that doesn't excuse it from being a point of negligent misrepresentation. This truly is a clear cut small claims case. As well as I have transcripts of the call logs with Cigna dental. Whether or not the dental board wants to waste their time with it is one thing but that doesn't mean that what I'm saying is incorrect. In fact I have a feeling a small claims court would see otherwise.

Continuity of care is important to me and I refused to be pressured into seeing a dentist I didn't trust. The dentist here saw and acknowledged that he saw in my file that I specifically noted that I would not see and still tried several times to pester me into accepting his care. Their billing practices are terrible and they hired an unprofessional admin for the front desk and the dentist I preferred left early when he was supposed to examine me and I finally had enough. I now drive to Lakewood to see a dentist that I like.

Dr. Hutchinson is so kind and gentle so if you are an anxious person when it comes to the dentist, I highly recommend him. Dr. Whiteley is not as kind and sensitive toward anxious patients and I felt he automatically and perhaps prematurely directed me to get a root canal, and when I came in for my next visit because I hadn't gotten the root canal yet, Dr. Hutchinson instead placed a crown and it has been fine since, so I won't see Dr. Whiteley anymore when I make appointments. The staff are amazing, and allow me to book appointments via email which is much more convenient for me. All my dental work under Dr. Hutchinson has been beyond expectations and I return because of him! Dr. Spencer I have seen on 2 occasions and he is also very good.
