I went to my dentist who is 100 yards from their office. They sent a referral and x-rays to the oral surgeon and pushed to get me in within 1.5 weeks. When I arrived I was told they would only see me for a consult. The extraction would be another visit. What was there to consult about? My dentist had sent the X-rays and half my molar above the gum line is missing. I had to have another extraction two months ago (bad luck) I went to Main Line Oral. My dentist sent the X-rays and referral. There was no question about it. They took the tooth out after being numbed up in less than 10 minutes. I would look elsewhere other than Pottstown Oral if you need an extraction.

Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. SHOULD OWN ITS GREED!…read moreOn Tuesday after a few months with a mild toothache I went to see my dentist. He took x rays and told me that the tooth required immediate extraction because of infection rapidly approaching the nerve. He instructed me to find an oral surgeon before the end of the week. New to the area, I called my insurance carrier to help me find a local oral surgeon who could extract my tooth without delay. My insurance identified Paul G Smith (a doctor within Plan) at Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. in Pottstown PA (1 hour drive from where I lived). I called Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. and explained the urgency of my condition. I was given an appointment for tooth extraction 1.30 pm on Friday. I was relieved. I offered to email recent X-rays. The receptionist declined. I thought this odd but did not question further. Friday morning after a painful and restless night I called to confirm arrangements. I wanted to make sure there were no loose ends given the urgency of the extraction and also the long travel distance (1 hour each way). This time a different receptionist answered. The woman explained there would be no extraction because my insurance required a prior authorization. This "new information" was never disclosed to me when I made the appointment or when I called my insurance even though I made clear in both conversations the urgency of my condition. The receptionist explained that I would require new x rays and a letter written by the doctor to be sent to my insurance in order to be granted the authorization required. I asked her how long this would take and she continued that it would take 7 to 10 days for me to get extraction. When in a panic I told her that I could not possibly wait that long with the pain I was experiencing and asked what I could do she said that I could keep the appointment and proceed with extraction if I agreed to pay "out of pocket". She would not provide an exact price, specifying only that the procedure would not be less than $775. I was shocked and demoralized. I could not possibly afford to pay "out of pocket". At the same time delay was jeopardizing my health as the infection spread. I ended the conversation indicating I would call my insurance to see if there was a way to speed up the process given the pain and--more importantly--health implications. I called my insurance somewhat upset. I asked why (given the seriousness of my condition) the approval process was not made transparent to me. Insurance stated that there was no Pre-approval requirement for doctors within Plan. The receptionist at Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. had scapegoated the insurance carrier as a cover up. Insurance was not pleased and suggested I call back Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. office to let them know that if the office was unclear about the insurance process then the insurance carrier would be happy to explain. Relieved by what I just learned I called back and the same receptionist I had talked to earlier answered the phone. I explained with excitement that no Pre-authorization was required with my Plan. As such Paul G. Smith at Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. could perform the extraction immediately. I was put on hold. The receptionist returned to the line a minute later. She explained she had moved away from the reception area -I guess so other patients would not hear- she recited the following: "It is the practice's policy to first have an appointment with a patient before scheduling a procedure". Presumably Paul G. Smith at Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. could take X-rays and proceed immediately based upon findings. For purely profit motives, however, it decided to create two independent insurance billing events. In short, generating more money while putting a patient's health at risk. Is this in keeping with the Hippocratic Oath? All this notwithstanding Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. knowingly booked an appointment on a false premise that I would have my tooth extracted at my initial appointment. More disturbingly when confronted with this deceit, attempted to cover up its misrepresentation by shifting blame to my insurance carrier. Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. actions were immoral, unethical and unconscionable. I cancelled my appointment and vowed to share my experience. Before you consider Pottstown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates, Inc. understand its primary motive is PROFIT. DECEIT, MISREPRESENTATION and LYING are its tactics. Think about it. Unbeknownst to me it would knowingly have me drive for more than 2 hours only to have me wait another week in pain all the while putting my health at risk solely for profit. UNCONSCIONABLE.

As soon as I walked in, I noticed the cleanliness of the waiting room. The receptionist greeted me and had me fill out new patient forms. Shortly after, I was taken to the back by one of their hygienist who was very friendly. She explained procedures and after I had an extensive exam and photos. Before, ending the exam the Doctor came in to speak with me, she was also very friendly. A few days later I went back for a cleaning. I am so bad with names but the girl that cleaned my teeth was really nice. I felt very comfortable with her and she did a great cleaning job. This was definitely one of my better experiences at a dental office! I highly recommend this dental office.
