I can't say enough about this doctor and his staff. He's hands down the best doctor that I have ever had.

I had a hernia repair with bowel resection in 2001 with another surgeon, after having several surgeries for endometriosis.

This is just an update of my review for Monroe Dentist Office. So I grew up in Monroe, and as a kid…read moreI went to the dentist every 6 months for a cleaning, with Tara, who was pleasant, and knew how to take care of kids. Even got a cavity filled with Dr. Crohn with proper pain relief of the numbing cream. So at least 4 stars with that. Years later, I got a cavity filled by Dr. Allison Douglas. For pain relief, she only offered the novacaine shot, in which i refused. But it wasn't until I was crying that she stopped and offered the numbing cream. After she applied the numbing cream it was better. However after the appointment, I went home- tooth that got filled hurt for like a week. Also I wasn't given any information on side effects or directions. to boot I also had steak for dinner, and I normally love steak but the tooth hurt and made it hard to eat for a few days. Luckily it subsided after a week. Note 3 stars for that experience Fast forward a few years after that, It was my annual cleaning, Tara asked me about my wisdom teeth, and forgetting, I told her the wrong information, which were that my bottom ones were intact. How easy it is for a doctor to check records, especially if they don't remember or anything? Part of that appointment was xrays, which were taken. Now during the xray process, Tara was understanding on how the positions can be not natural, and tried to make me as comfortable as possible. Which helps. Even while doing the cleaning, she stopped for a second if I was a little sensitive or if my gums bled. Now, when the dentist Alison Douglas came in to check the xrays, she told me, oh you may need more fillings. Now I didn't say anything at that time, but If my last filling with her was a bad experience, and as long as I don't have teeth pain myself- I don't really want any dentist work done. Alison also failed to explain to me where on the xray, she sees I have cavities. She kept saying "Oh you know, You know" Obviously If I Am asking then No, I don't know. I am also a firm believer in that healthcare is both the doctor and the patient agreeing to a treatment plan that works for the patient. After that, It was the last straw and I wouldn't recommend this office at all. Maybe for the other dentist Dr. Crohn and My Hygentist Tara. But other than that- No because some need pain relief. I also no longer live in the area. Hope this office realizes that bad experiences can cause Trauma, and sometimes that can be no good for health in the long run, and I say that because I haven't been to the dentist since, and this was more than a few years ago now.

Haven't been here in years due to a bad experience that i experienced in 2021/2022. I do recall the…read morehygentist tara being very good, and gentle. Cleaning is always comforting and she stopped if i was bleeding or feeling senstive. Gotta admit that removing tartar has been a little uncomfortable to me because it is like scraping the tooth, and I brush my teeth twice a day with no issues. But the way tara does it is very gentle. I have 3 stars because last visit, which was years ago, but the other dentist alison i believe filled my cavity without novacaine, and it wasn't until i was crying that she applied the numbing cream on my tooth, which i had to suggest. Didn't explain any side effects either, as for a week, i couldn't chew that much and my tooth that got filled hurt. Didn't even tell me to take advil or offer medicine for pain relief. After i got the cavity filled, at my last appointment, i did xrays, and they found a spot where they may have to fill a cavity, but it was a small one. They didn't even show me that xray, or ask if my tooth bothers me. For me, If a tooth bothers me then i am more likely to get it filled, not just because "I have to.." Consider what the patient wants as well as what may be needed on the doctor's end. I don't recommend coming here because of the dentists. The hygentists are fine, but the dentists seem to have some kind of agenda and not care what the patient wants. More so because of my truama, i may not ever go to a dentist again. If i find getting a cavity filled hurts, i need to be sedated or at least with a strong numbing agent. Also wrote a book about my truama here: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/doctor-experiences-jacqueline-lisella/1144576158?ean=9798855699579

I would say it's best to stay away. Rating it 1 star because 0 isn't an option, and what's worse…read moreis, I don't think they even care. Reading other reviews, apparently I'm not the only one having a similar experience, not once but twice. How hard is it to write a prescription for PT? Apparently, it's out of the wheelhouse of the physician. First time, didn't code it right, and in reading it afterward, it was for the wrong body part. Took 2 weeks to get it rectified, along with 6 phone calls to the office, who apologized, and sent the exact same wrong prescription over to the PT place, finally corrected. Follow up appointment, I get 4 different texts, starting a week ahead asking me to confirm my appointment, which I did. The day of my appointment, I arrive on time, to find my appointment has been cancelled. Reason? Doctor had emergency surgery. Somebody called you, but no one answered. I have no idea who they called, but it wasn't me, show my phone history to the very nice receptionist, she sighs, and says well, they were supposed to call you. Phone number in the system is correct, but none of the other information is correct. They have an address that I haven't lived at in 26 years, I actually have no idea, how they have this address. Second time correcting that issue, and the follow up cancelled appointment is 2 months after the first visit. How long does it take them to correct an address? I see the doctor today which is 2 days after the cancelled appointment. Issues haven't changed, he asks me why I haven't had the MRI..... to which I replied "What MRI"?, they should have scheduled it at the front desk. Turns out it was scheduled, but the MRI place never called me (Or so they say). Go figure....probably got that same wrong phone number from the office. So, I tell the physician, the issues with the first prescription, and how it delayed care.....(crickets) didn't get a response. I check out, and I'm supposed to pick up a script for more PT and an MRI at the front desk. No script for PT, call goes back to the doctor, and I have to wait for the script, albeit only 15 minutes. Nurse apologizes, very nice, I didn't look at it, and left for the PT place to drop it off. Guess what? Wrong script, wrong body part. Script for MRI is correct, PT nope. How could this be anything other than the physician himself. It wasn't just a simple oops and some clerical mistakes, this entire operation from all aspects has no idea what they are doing, read the other reviews I am not an anomaly at all. Now the Physician. He is a spine doctor. I was referred to him by another orthopedist who said, not my specialty, and from your symptoms you need someone with this expertise. Correct just not this guy. She was willing to treat the issues I had with my knee which was very swollen, bruised and some meat removed from it. The first visit is about 1 1/2 months after the accident. After seeing him twice, I can't for the life of me fathom a guess as to why it took so long to get an appointment. I was in a head on auto accident with another vehicle who entered our lane of traffic. Now, I was specifically seeing him, because another physician recommended I see him, didn't pick him out of a phonebook or for any other reason. To say he seemed disinterested is being polite, barely examined me, and said it's going to take a long time until you feel better. The nurse had to bring up the chart for him to look at it and see for the first time. Same second go around, didn't bother to look and even question why a test he ordered wasn't performed, before going to see him a second time. Now my daughter was with me for the first exam. Her opinion was what a waste of time that was he barely looked at you. Second visit was shorter and less of an exam than the first. No follow up, no follow through, and couldn't be bothered. Do not waste your time, I went to a spine doctor who never physically examined my spine.

Services rendered are great. I've been treated by two different doctors. I'm satisfied with that…read more What ruins the experience is the billing staff or appointment staff. Since COVID I get a text for preregistration. I get this sometimes a whole week prior. I usually wait for the same day of the appointment to o fill it out as they require the co-pay to be paid as well. For this reason I wait in case they reschedule an appointment (which I've had appointments cancelled and not by me). Yet when texting in the past long lot that I'm present for my appointment I'm informed that the referral is expired. Why not tell me in text sent a week prior? I could've arranged to get the referral. Now I'm being stressed that I would be responsible , blah, blah blah. Plus when i do get the referral they insist on my primary to fax it over. They're busy as well. Train your people to go into the site and retrieve them or hire competent people to do so. Anyway. I cancelled the appoint and rescheduled. Not gonna jump through hoops. Although I'm hurting I'm not gonna get high blood pressure for something that could've been prevented by the staff.

I'll start off by saying that the administrative staff has been so very polite and nice, but That's…read morewhere my positive review ends. It began as a family of three going here. Then they said they weren't' comfortable working w/patient w/Parkinson's. I found a new dentist and oral surgeon for him. A few months later I rec'd a call confirming an appt for him. I had to explain to them that THEY had told me months ago that they weren't comfortable working on him due to the Parkinson's tremors. The new dentist I found for him was so much more professional appearance, office decor and friendly, that I decided to use them as well. Smile a Bit, claimed they took my mom's insurance and worked on her in 2025. Suddenly, in 2026 they claimed they had no insurance documentation for her and that she must've dropped her insurance...she had not. I resubmitted it to them and when she went in for a cleaning (1st cleaning of the year) they said they had to charge her $75 and that all her work would have to be out of pocket. This didn't sound right because they claimed that they accepted Aetna Medicare. Called Aetna and they told me, that office and doctor was NOT "in Network". The doctors name I offered from that Highland Mills office is not the name that Aetna had on file, nor was a doctor by that name in that office. Therefore, I've just now moved my mom to our new dentist in Stoney Point as well. Aetna coverage for "IN NETWORK" dental is that they'll pay for the first $750. After that, it would be OOP. I was told by the SAB staff that their practice IS "in Network." That was wrong according to Aetna Medicare For this region. Bottom line: the administrative staff was very pleasant, but the business side of things and the office's physical appearance needs a lot of work.

Had to give it one star because I could not leave negative stars. Everything this bitcher does is…read morean upsell, then says that work performed may not last and I might need root canal on it at a later date. Coral the woman at the desk overcharges and does not adhere to insurance Guidelines for procedure charges, she is condescending and totally unprofessional. I feel I was literally robbed as I paid cash for uncovered work and found out later it was covered and i was way overcharged, The office is dated and if I wasnt in such need for a broken tooth to be repaired I should have trusted my instinct and had moved on. NEVER AGAIN!

"Haters going to hate!"…read more Wow, there is certainly a lot of hate for this place and it makes reading reviews almost traumatic in itself. I almost required a medic to treat my anxiety just reading the reviews prior to visiting this clinic. I have nothing bad to say about this place because the doctors, nurses & staff were nice. I visited during the worst times, a pandemic, and they managed visits as best they could and I think the check-in system works pretty darn good. For my multiple visits I checked in from my vehicle in the parking lot using the automated system and waited at worst 15-20 mins but if that's long it's only because I arrived 15 mins early for each appointment and was inside within 10 mins of my actual appointment time. Masks are required and hand sanitizer is available within the facility if needed. There's never really more than a dozen patients in the building, that I saw personally or crossed paths with. Specialists I was treated by (two of them) were both great! Nurses were great and even the staff when I inquired if I should just be seated and wait were nice in directing me. I wish more people that are satisfied with this place would share their experiences because it would have greatly reduced my stress levels prior to my visit from reading all the bad reviews. If I require major treatment in the near future, I hope my experience continues to be positive. Maybe your milage for satisfaction varies based on the specialist you need but the hand surgeon and neurologist I had seen were awesome.

I come to Crystal Run only because my Endocrinologist is here otherwise I would never step foot in…read morehere again. The wait time has become ridiculous, it makes no sense that they give you an appointment but then have you waiting for 40 minutes to an hour. Some of the front office staff are rude and not helpful at all. They are now run by Optum and that seems to have made matters worse cause all of my other doctors have left this practice. They should close down all together.
