She was so busy at work that just thinking about having to find a new dentist was daunting. I jumped in and offered to find one. She was working in the Worthington/Westerville area at the time and after a quick search on Yelp, I found this place. She called them right away, was able to see them right away, and was blown away by the experience. Flash forward to about a month ago when I ended up having to find a new dentist. My sister reminded me of Westerville Dental so I gave them a ring and had a very similar experience. I was able to get scheduled that same week and the staff was incredibly friendly. Along with my bi-annual cleaning, I opted for the Zoom whitening. I can definitely say that it was worth the money. If you need a new dentist, look no further.

Nowadays the dentists I get seem to have no real intent and show little to no interest in you as an individual. It's like you're just a number to them giving no final explanation for full understanding of your overall checkup. I have to question things I hear them saying to one another as if you're (the patient) isn't right there in the room or if the hygienist tells me something very specific about a potential concern, the dentist doesn't speak to it unless I actually raise the question myself. Originally when the owners of the practice saw more patients, I felt more better connected to receiving care and treatment from them. Sincerely speaking, Dionsha Janes

This was the worst experience I've ever had at a dentist. I…read morehave never experienced this type of low-class treatment before. From the very beginning, everything was unprofessional and disorganized. I arrived early for my appointment and still waited an entire hour in the lobby. I had already told them ahead of time that I had a referral from another dentist and that tooth #3 needed a root canal. When I finally got called back, I waited another 20 minutes. Then the dentist came in and told me they were going to do a couple fillings and a tooth extraction. That confused me because I specifically called and confirmed that I was coming in for a root canal. Then suddenly, they tell me they don't have time to do the root canal that day. Mind you, I had already been sitting there for over an hour and a half. I was in EXCRUCIATING pain my jaw was locking, I could barely swallow, and I was genuinely concerned about my health. Despite that, I agreed to move forward with the extraction and fillings just to get some relief. They numbed my mouth and were about to begin when I realized no one had gone over the cost with me. I had to stop them myself and ask. The assistant then said, "Oh you're right, we forgot," and brought me a breakdown showing I owed $500 out of pocket and that my insurance covered $0. I knew that wasn't right because I had already checked my insurance beforehand. Sure enough, they "forgot" to add my insurance and had to redo it. At that point, I lost trust and decided to only do the extraction. Here's what really shocked me: my mouth was already NUMB, and they told me to go up front to pay before they continued. I asked them, "Is it normal practice to numb a patient and then send them up front to pay?" I was honestly disgusted by how that was handled. A few days later, I was still in extreme pain after the extraction. I had a root canal scheduled for Wednesday, but by Saturday I knew I couldn't wait. I called and begged them to get me in sooner or do anything to help. They told me no because of some "policy" where insurance has to be verified weekly, and the manager who does that only comes in on Wednesdays. I called my insurance company, and they told me Comfort Dental should be able to give me a referral to an endodontist. When I called back to request a referral, they told me they don't give referrals because they do root canals there, but I insisted that they give me a referral because I couldn't wait and then the lady says well I can get a referral if I come in for another appointment which made zero sense because the dentist had literally just seen me and confirmed I needed a root canal. The information I was getting was inconsistent and honestly felt uneducated. So I drove up there in person, in pain, just to try to get help. When I got there, they told me I had to pay $30 out of pocket just to go to the back and speak to the dentist for a referral because they "couldn't verify my insurance." At that point, I was furious. I was standing there thinking, are you serious right now? Thankfully, a dental assistant came out and helped me and gave me a referral but that should NOT have been that difficult. The front desk staff were extremely unempathetic and made no effort to help resolve my situation. One of them honestly seemed like they were not fully present, and I felt completely dismissed and unsupported the entire time. If you need serious dental work, DO NOT come here. This was the most disorganized, unprofessional, and frustrating experience I've ever had in a healthcare setting. I don't know about other Comfort Dental locations, but this specific one was absolutely terrible.

The office is a downer here. They are hard to get a hold of, and I get routed to a central office where the staff have zero idea about what's going on. Then there are times that I do reach the office, but they ask if they can call me back...and they usually don't. My biggest gripe is how they don't work with my insurance very well. I'm on a DMO/HMO. You figure that since it's a dental "maintenance" type of plan, and the fact that they are one of the few offices that support this plan, they would know what is covered. But they don't. They just run whatever they consider normal treatments under their guidelines, so I'm left with covering extra fluoride treatments out of pocket. Kind of annoying, but it's also what I get for trusting that they know how stuff works (if I were more cynical, I'd say it's extra profit for them).
