Do not take your child here! They are just about getting your $$. They totally pressure you and make you feel Iike a horrible parent if you don't opt for dental x-rays for your toddler. When there are no issues and x-rays are known to cause cancer, and you're not comfortable exposing your toddler to them at such a young age when they're not yet necessary, the response to the parent shouldn't be "it's just like being out in the sun for 2 hours". If that's the case then the technician should have a great tan at end of her day in the office. And charging patients a PPE fee? For every visit? Increased costs due to upgraded PPE is not the responsibility of the patients to pay. Other dental offices don't charge this, and the college of Denturists of B.C. said it's an optional charge....but the office manager here will tell you it's needed so they can remain open. WTF? It's an OPTIONAL charge, other dentists aren't charging it and they remained open during Covid but this business wouldn't survive without charging every patient an extra $10 per visit? Ridiculous. It's a tax write off for the business, and nothing but a cash grab. Take your child somewhere where they actually care about their patients and aren't just trying to take your $$. read more
