I would leave no stars if I could, how disgusted I'm with Dr. Petrungaro treatment. This is my story:
I have met Dr.Paul three years ago and He convinced me that I need Porcelain crowns on all my teeth. He told me that I have grained my teeth and that he will open up my bite. So for the past 3 years I had been walking with temporaries, falling off on the weekly basis and him being outside the country and not available to glue them on. I spend more than $ 34.000.00 and crowns that are coming off, breaking my teeth. He has not even permanently cemented my front bridges. With Corona, I was very hesitant to go to the dentist. He scheduled me one month ahead even though I had been missing crowns, broken teeth and could not eat. By the way I have gained 60 pounds in these 3 years cause I was on soft diet. I have been more than patient and he always told me that he will never try to do anything what he intended to do with my mouth. Like I was the one asking him. That was totally his idea. He comes today and after evaluation, gives me a plan and sends his secretary to give me cost. She is asking another $14.000.00 and her plan was completely different of what he was talking, few minutes back. He also told me that he will do all the work that afternoon. Not to mention that at his first visit, He shaved my all teeth in one setting. Now I see that this was not to leave me time to change my mind. Now when for the first time I objected and asked of him to just to permanently cement my front bridges, He came to the room, yelling of not having time and that if I "needed glueing", I can come some other time and have them glued by his assistant. Now I realize that is all about money with Dr. Paul. I'm Physician and this is what I get from a colleague?! Meantime he changed several technicians and my teeth are different color. If you want to spend amount of luxury car and be treated as this. I had credit also with the office and it was pooling teeth, to get the money back. Unbelievable but true. This dentist is so entitled and grandiose, not to mention greedy. My teeth are still a mess because of Dr. Paul very expensive and degrading treatment.
Update:
After I left the review on his website, his office answered to call the doctor immediately. I thought, OK at least He is ethical and will talk and straiten the misunderstanding. I was willing to take my review down. Meantime my front teeth underneath the bridge that he refused to permanently glue broke off and I had terrible pain. When I showed up, they referred to Dr. Adams across of his office. Dr. Adams managed to give me dentures to cover my broken teeth. Those are called clunkers and I have to take them out when I eat otherwise I can brake them. Now I have broken front teeth, exposed and clunkers that I can't speak normally. He said those are temporaries until you see Dr. Paul. I thought OK, I already had appointment in 2 weeks. On the day of the appointment I was told that He is not going to see me and the reason is send by mail. I still wait for that mail to arrive. Please do not go!!! He is over his head, with his grandiose projects and overbooked. He made me feel like I was a problem and that I should just accept his travels, because he is big shot doctor. He is a big scam!!!!!! read more
