    First of all, would like to give credit where credit is due. The dental staff were kind,…read moreprofessional, and did a good job. However, the reason that I'm only giving this business a single star has nothing to do with their dental care, and everything to do with their business practices and their business office. In short, I had questions and concerns around some issues with billing. I tried -numerous times- to call and speak with the billing department and/or a manager. Over 6 times, at least. I would either get a recording where it instructed that I leave my name and number (which I did) for a callback, or I would speak with the receptionist who would inform me that the business office and/or a manager were unavailable but would get back to me. But they never did. Even though in later calls, I told the receptionist that my calls were not returned - and she promised they would be. I also gave them my email, on the small chance (not likely, many businesses have successfully called me) that the phone number was not working. I got my bills emailed to me, no issue - but no responses to my questions. It's unfortunate that I had this experience, as I said the dental staff were nice and fine. But I will not be returning, nor can I recommend the business to anyone due to the issues I had reaching them to discuss my bills (which were never resolved... in the end, I paid them, because I don't want a mark on my credit). Extremely unprofessional, in my opinion.

    The Team at this location runs a clean and mean ship. They get you in with all your teeth problems…read moreand get you leaving through there doors whistlin dixie. I personally have had my problems with my teeth and ever since I started going to this location my life has been feeling much better. Set your day up to wait to get in because their clientel is growing due to there professionalism. Its hard to wait sometimes but what helps me get through it is knowing my teeth will be treated by people who know what they are doing. Get your teeth looked at and if needed treated here, you will not regret it !

    can not believe this place!! Had an appointment scheduled and I called in 2 days before my…read moreappointment to let them know I was not feeling good! They did not even care one bit about how I was feeling, they didn't even bother to ask if I had a fever or sore throat nothing they insisted u need to make your appointment! I told them I needed to go and get a COVID test because I did not feel good and did not want to come to there office and contaminate everyone in there office! And not to mention contaminating all the oral medical equipment! So unbelievably they did not care one bit of how I felt nor did they even bother to ask one question of my symptoms! Straight up they said if you are not here for your appointment we will have to charge you the full price of your appointment and an additional $1200 on top for a no show fee! I couldn't believe it!! Even though I called in 48 hours in advance and they still tried to charge me the extra fee! Needless to say there was no way I was ever going to enter that office!! Who knows how many COVID infected patients had been in and out of that medical office knowing that they didn't care one bit about, if their patients were ifected or not, knowing they didn't care about how I felt!! ! absolutely could not believe it !They were Blatantly intentionally spreading COVID carelessly, not even thinking about their patients only worried about collecting their money!! And contributing to reinfecting society with not a care at all is JUST UNBELIEVABLY DISGUSTING!!!

    Highly recommend this dentist office! Dr. Washburn is amazing, and very thorough! His hygenists…read moreare great and don't wail on you! This coming from experience as I used to go to a dentist who's hygenist was nicknamed "Bloody Blanche" ! Great office staff, and there is coffee and water available in the waiting room. Super clean as expected, put particularly apparent! I go to their office in the Avenues Forsyth, but I believe they also have one near Northside in Cumming.

    I am very disappointed in Lanier Dental Partners. My wife and our two (now adult) children have…read morebeen patients of Dr Palmer for 22 years. We started seeing him before he joined Lanier Dental Partners, and we followed him there. We all go every 6 months for a cleaning, even during Covid. My children sat in my wife's lap as babies so they wouldn't grow up scared of the dentist. There has also been the occasional dental emergency. EVERY TIME we paid immediately after the appointment was over. For twenty years we have lived at the same address and had the same phone number. Dr Palmer recently retired and I am not very happy with Dr. Patel, his replacement. Recently, every time we go, they insist we fill out a medical history form, even if nothing has changed. The last time I went in for an appointment it was the same thing but then, the woman at the desk asked for a copy of my Driver's License. Remember, for twenty years we pay as soon as the appointment is over and we've lived in the same house. They really have no need to ask for my Driver's License. I decided we would just find another dentist and cancelled all our upcoming appointments. Now, they can legally ask for my Driver's License. However there is a lot of identity theft going on in the world. If hackers can breach large companies like AT&T, Equifax, Visa etc., how easy is it to breach Lanier Dental Partners? I would not advise anyone to have their Drivers License copied unless you have to for insurance reasons. I am in the finance business and 4 or 5 times a year we hear from our clients that someone stole their I.D. Businesses like Lanier Dental Partners have a policy in place that makes your identity accessible. I would think twice before you hand over that information. On February 7, Dr Patel sent me a Certified Letter "firing" us from her practice because I refused to give them my license. Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this practice. They only want to check the boxes and have forgotten they are dealing with real people. The letter from Dr. Patel is just one more example. I would have never done this review, but Dr. Patel just went too far. P.S. If you feel the need to file a complaint with the Georgia Board of Dentistry here is the link: https://gbd.georgia.gov/laws-policies-rules

    Beautiful office and all of the staff are very nice. This location is good location for me. I…read moreneeded an implant done. I previously did the oral surgery and waited for everything to take. Had my final visit with oral surgeon. I am somewhat new to the area and selected Lanier Dental Partners due to the great reviews and location. When I got there, Nice waiting area and lots of front office people. Everyone was very nice. Was moved back to a dental chair. I am self pay / without insurance and they brought me a piece of paper to sign. right at 2,800 dollars for 1 tooth. Felt like thats a lot. I already have a lot in this with the extraction and oral surgery for the implant. Looked around the room and they have a poster for an in house annual plan for around 400. This would have saved 20 percent (not sure exactly) but I did the math and it would have saved more than it cost. I said OK - lets do the annual plan. It will save me more than it costs. I was then informed that it takes 24 hours for the annual plan to go into effect, so I couldn't sign up today and get the services today. I left kindof confused about the visit. the tooth seemed like a lot of money. Not being able to get the annual plan on day of treatment (seems like it is an In-House plan) I called my former dentist on my way home and verbally he told me worst case on implant would be 1,800 - 1,000 dollars less than Lanier Dental Partners. I ended up going to my former dentist. An hour away, but saved 1,000 out of pocket. Lanier Dental Partners seems like a very nice office and nice people, But maybe not a great choice if you are Self Pay.

I took 4 of my kids here after being severely overdue for some work (didn't like other offices I took them to in the area), and this place did not disappoint! The treatments were scheduled so that it didn't hurt my time or my pockets! This went on for about 3 months until completed for all 4 of my girls. A few weeks later, I received a call and was told that my ins plan paid more than anticipated, and I was offered a REFUND for the overage. WHAT? Um, yes - please - thank you! Now, me. I had to make an emergency appt for myself as a first time patient same day on 7/5 - YES, they were open the day after the 4th (while I was off). They saw me that day, gave me a list of the work I needed, told me the amounts, brought me back in 2 days later, and did my extractions within an hour's worth of an appt from start to finish! The staff was very attentive, I was even given control of the Pandora station to be more comfortable - so we listened to gospel my entire visit, lol! Most impressive? I did not feel the shots that I was given to numb the areas to be worked on. THAT is a win for me! I like THIS dentist, and I like him as a person as well. The entire staff was great, and they didn't make me tear up when they told me the costs of the work to be done. I highly recommend, and I will definitely be back!
