I had a 5pm appointment; checking in was easy. I filled out some documents electronically prior to the appointment; a few more had to be filled out in person. I waited about 20 minutes to see someone. They told me that the initial appointment will be a bit longer due to me being a new patient. The dental assistant was nice, she took pictures of my teeth. Then I was introduced to the friendly Dr. Frederickson; we had a discussion about my teeth health and what to expect. The Dental Hygienist, Monique was very personable; took my X-rays and initiated my teeth cleaning. I booked another appointment a month out to get a filling on a cavity. The second appointment, was great. The whole appointment took about 20 minutes. I had a small cavity filled. The Dentist was very professional and had amazing bed side manner; she walked through every step that was happening. The whole process was easy and painless. Overall, A+ experience and highly recommend.

From the day it was put in, until the day it fell out on its own, it caused pain, gum swelling and intermittent migraines. I returned to Dr Sanford for 4 additional visits with the same concerns and reported pain. On the 4th visit Dr. Sanford was visibly angry and very aggressive in his approach in examining the crown and overall area in question. He was also insistent the crown work had been completed 5 years prior and vehemently disagreed with my statement of 4 months until he found the date in my medical records. After 4 visits with no visible progress made, and now having a frustrated doctor taking it out on me, I choose another dental group to reinstall a proper fitting crown. It, along with several other crowns that I have had for many years are working great! Between Dr. Sanford's inability or interest to make the appropriate corrections and his highly unprofessional behavior, I requested a return of payment. He wrote a letter placing responsibility on me, the patient, for the dental issues. He refused to reimburse but instead advised me to come in again to see what could be done. Candidly, when I have an issue with my car, I do not give the mechanics 4 chances to get it right. Why would I have a lower standard for my own personal dental health? The service provided was sub-par at best. At the very least, a refund should be made. Simply a dreadful experience!

Here's a cautionary tale about Avon Dental Group in Avon, CT. I've been going there since I was a…read morekid, and never encountered any issues. Recently I needed to undergo a crown procedure. The day before I called into the office and was quoted ~$600 for the procedure. I have Delta Dental Insurance provided through CIGNA, which Avon Dental accepts. After the temporary crown was installed, the front desk refused to submit the bill to my insurance, and asked for up-front payment of upwards of $900 instead. I asked them why the number was so different from the price quoted the day before, and the nasty front desk administrator informed me that the person who helped me was mistaken and did not know what they were doing. I was told that since a permanent crown requires them to spend money I would have to pay in advance. I told them I did not have that type of money on me, and paid them $700, which they seemed more than happy to accept. After the final crown was installed a few weeks later, I met with the Billing Manager (someone different than the nasty front desk admin). She explained that they have contracted rates with the insurance companies, which is why they knew the exact price I would have to pay, and again quoted me this $900+change figure that needed to be paid up front. I refused to pay her the additional money at that time and said I would pay what I owed after the bill was submitted to my insurance. A few weeks later, I received my Explanation of Benefits from my insurance, and the price I was due to pay (after insurance) was as I had been originally quoted the day before the procedure: $613. I had been forced to overpay initially. And if they would have had their way, instead of owing me $87 back, it would have been over $300. I angrily contacted the Billing Manager and demanded to know what was really going on here, and how they not only could demand up-front payment w/o submittal to my verified insurance, but also how they could get the amount wrong by over 30%. TWICE. The Billing Manager ADMITTED that when the company was acquired a few years ago, they had over half a million dollars in debt on the books due to unpaid customer bills. To fix this problem, going forward they would charge customers upfront estimates and submit to insurance after that. And that it was the job of front desk workers to collect as much as they could upfront. And that they were good at their job. Yep. You heard that right. That they were good at their job, of intentionally overcharging customers initially before submitting to their accepted insurance companies! I told her I would no longer be a customer or patient of their office, and am awaiting my reimbursement via check, which I was told will be received in 2-3 weeks. This is how Avon Dental Group operates now. It is not the same place it was, and unless you want an experience like mine, I would not suggest you go to them for your dental needs!

They sent a dentist in at the end, I asked what this was about, technician says "Oh we always have a dentist come in" but they did not ask my specific permission. He literally poked his fingers around in my mouth for 30 seconds or so. And when I get the bill, they socked me for $56 for this poking. NEVER AUTHORIZED THIS DENTIST PART, NEVER AUTHORIZED AN ADDITIONAL $56!!! If you can't trust them for a simple cleaning, I sure as hell will never trust them with more. And now they have lost a patient. NOT HAPPY WITH THEM AT ALL.

Recently…read more(past 3 years) his office has moved away from the "home town dentist" feel to the managed care model. The receptionists are rude and NO MATTER how far out you ask for an appointment, they act like you've asked the impossible and that looking into the computer for some available times would be fruitless. They text you for a "reminder" of your appointment, to which I've responded. Then they email you and tell you you didn't reply and this is followed up with a RUDE conversation with one of the receptionists. All of the dental professionals are kind and talented, making it the best possible experience. This change to a more corporate office may have improved Dr. K's business model but I know of other long timers who have left or are planning to do so just because the "gate keepers" make it so bad.

Luckily a technician caught it when I was sitting in the chair about to get anesthesia. I could have aspirated during anesthesia and choked. Also problems with the billing person, Mae.

They billed insurance for it. Even though they made me pay for it up front. When I told Mae I didn't have anesthesia she didn't believe me and wasn't going to give me the refund I was told I would get since I didn't have it. All around a very negative experience.

If I could Give Dr. Rosenberg negative stars I would. I do not like him as a person. As an…read moreorthodontist I guess he's fine. But I found him to be a manipulative bully. We were shopping orthodontists and met with him. He gave us a quote which was $600 more than a competitor (even with a discount) and he pressure sold us into going with him. My child wanted to get braces on as soon as possible and he said he could do it the following week, but we had to decide right then or the discount was off the table. So we did. Still kicking myself!! Note, our experience with the staff as a whole was great! Just not Rosenberg! We had another meeting with him and my child and I both agreed after leaving that meeting that he was just awful. But we were already too far in. At one point, he quoted me one price for a particular type of retainer. At our next appointment my child wanted that particular retainer, but the price suddenly went up on us. He tried to talk us into a different one (which was not as durable). When I called him out on the price change he said in a not quiet voice in front of everyone "Are you calling me a liar?" And then threatened to drop us as clients. It was such an uncomfortable, unprofessional situation! If it weren't for my child sitting right there (I'm sure so embarrassed) I would have given him the business and called him out on his behavior and then dropped them in a heartbeat!! I don't "hate" people, that's not who I am. But I hate everything about Rosenberg. I don't think I've even written a negative review in my life until right now.
