Come time for my appointment dr Spencer decided to try and pull out my crown with his fingers without saying anything first then appeared surprised and unhappy that that action startled and scared me, he continued to explain to us that he didn't have time and we needed to schedule another appointment. We scheduled that appointment as a consultation and had been there for maybe 10 minutes at most. I asked for him to look at my teeth instead of repeatedly explaining trust because the time it took him to talk would be enough to glance at my teeth which is all I was asking. When he would not look at my teeth in the appointment scheduled for him to look at and do a consult for my teeth We decided to leave and not return as he made it clear verballyand in actions he couldn't or would not help. This appointment caused further trauma and was extremely unprofessional. However his dental assistant was lovely and kind I wish her the best in her career.

Even with an unusual situation, this place is incredible…read more To start off this review, i'm currently traveling around the united states. With Wisconsin being my home, a random dentist office in northeast Montana wouldnt usually be my first choice. After the interaction I had though- I certainly would make it first. After calling numerous dental offices to inquire about a tooth extraction, this office was the first to help that offered Care Credit. Not being totally sure where I was going to be, but hopeful on location, I ended up scheduling an appointment here. They were ON IT with trying to get me in ASAP, aiming to get the situation dealt with same day, same time (meaning new patient visit, x-ray and extraction). The woman who helped me was SO KIND and SO COMPASSIONATE. I wish I remembered her name. This place is as solid as can be in the type of world we live in today. While I ended up not actually making it to the appointment due to several, spontaneous factors, this place far supersedes dental offices even close to my area. This place definitely deserves the glowing reviews. If I ever am in the area and need emergency dental work, this will be the place I go. You guys made a poopy situation easy to deal with. While service wasn't on my side this time, yours certainly was. Thank you so much for everything you do.

I love smiling. It's a core part of who I am and how I interact with the world. So when I came to…read moreDr. Pence's office and was told I needed extensive treatment--treatment I simply couldn't afford--it was absolutely devastating. I left that initial appointment heartbroken and overwhelmed. I made it clear, again and again, to the front office staff that I'm a single father responsible for all of my daughters' medical, dental, and insurance needs on my own. I max out my workplace flex spending account every year, and nearly 100% of it goes toward my daughters' care--including ongoing payments for my daughter's braces. I told them there was no way I could take on thousands of dollars in additional dental expenses for myself. Despite that, they kept pushing paperwork at me--totaling over $14,000 in treatment plans--until I finally walked out of the office in tears. Months later, I returned for a scheduled basic teeth cleaning, only to be told I still had to sign the same financial forms for over $14,000 in out-of-pocket treatments before they would even begin the cleaning. I wasn't there for surgery. I wasn't there for an expensive procedure. I just wanted a cleaning. But once again, I was made to feel pressured, humiliated, and deeply uncomfortable. The thought of losing my smile because I can't afford treatment is deeply depressing. And the anxiety and fear this office caused--by dismissing my concerns and pushing expensive plans regardless of my financial reality--only made it worse. If you're looking for a provider who listens, respects your situation, and offers care without shame or pressure, I suggest looking elsewhere.

This is a lengthy but important review. Having lived in many places across Canada and the U.S.,…read moreI've been under the care of numerous providers. Alluvion is the first clinic where I've had a truly negative experience. When I was younger and had limited means, this organization operated as the City-County Health Department/Community Health Care Center. At that time, the staff were caring and considerate. Since transitioning away from the county, however, that environment has changed significantly. After my physician (a compassionate and capable woman) moved out of state, my care was transferred to a nurse practitioner. She decided to discontinue several of my long-term mental health medications abruptly--medications that should have been tapered, including some that should never be stopped suddenly. These prescriptions had kept me stable and functioning well for over a decade. When I expressed concern about stopping them and explained that I felt my life beginning to unravel, I was dismissed and told to defer to her judgment without discussion. I requested a different provider and was given another woman. While initially pleasant, the interaction quickly followed the same pattern--little interest in my perspective or medical history. When I asked whether my records had been reviewed and offered to have them sent over, this was ignored. My diagnoses and concerns were treated as irrelevant. The situation escalated when the clinic director entered and took a confrontational tone. At that point, it became clear this was not an isolated issue with one or two providers, but reflective of a broader shift in the clinic's approach. Although I was frustrated, I was not belligerent. I apologized if I had offended anyone, explaining that I was experiencing severe anxiety and withdrawal effects after being taken off long-term medication. Despite this, I was told to leave. I was never provided a formal discharge notice, either in person or by mail, which is a legal requirement. I again attempted to explain that I was not trying to argue but was struggling with abrupt medication changes. No matter. Additionally, without notice, I was removed from the sliding scale payment program and charged significantly higher fees, which they allowed to accrue, all of which I paid. Since this took place, I have received care at Benefis, where my experience has been consistently positive. While I am not given free rein in my care (& I've never expected to be given such), the providers are respectful, communicative, and genuinely attentive. I have heard many similar accounts from others who previously had positive experiences before the transition to Alluvion. For additional context, the organization has faced other issues, including a reported significant debt to the county: https://www.greatfallstribune.com/story/news/2019/11/12/cascade-county-says-not-profit-took-over-clinic-owes-480-900/2581244001/ If you have access to other healthcare options, I would strongly encourage you to consider them. In my experience, asking questions or expressing concerns at Alluvion led to being treated with suspicion rather than respect, despite the fact that patients should be active participants in their own care. Thank you for your time.
