If i could give no stars i would. This is one of thee worst dentists you could ever encounter, and I mean that very seriously, she should come with a warning sign "proceed with caution and at your own peril and risk" . I would not recommend Dr Stacy Godes, she is just simply not competent, i had work done on two teeth with her, and have had terrible problems post it, i had no pain before i went to her, and an abundance since she performed her handiwork. I have had to go to specialists to figure out what the hell she did that is causing me so much pain and basically it boils down to she screwed up and did not know what she was doing, she screwed up an inclusion on a crown in an area that she should not have even put a crown in, but it's a money racket and she will put a crown on anything she can get away with, mostly unnecessary crowns, and actually damaging in terms of the area's she will attempt to place one to rack up her fees, as i now have figured out a little to late, and over $3k and counting, later.
I would seriously caution anyone looking for a dentist to find another and i would NOT recommend her. If you are looking for a great, actually fantastic dentist, Dr. Steven Jaska is exemplary. He's amazing actually; he was delegated with the dubious undertaking of correcting Dr Godes incompetent and negligent work. I like Dr. Blum, whom is in the same office as Dr. Godes, but she is basically semi-retired, and the staff put you with this Dr. Godes whom is totally incompetent. I was going to report her to the dental board, that is how incompetent and negligent i thought she was and is, but my new dentist ( Dr. Jaska) is trying to undo her incompetence and he is making headway thus i did not report her as i had intended to do so. She and her assistant is rude and only thought it in their best interest to address the screw-up, when they knew, i not only could, but would sue them, and report their behavior to the dental board, but my guess would be if i was not an attorney and they were not apprised of their impending fate, they would have been dismissive and in fact would have referred you out to a specialist of their recommendation to ensure their negligent (you know what) was covered. I was not entertaining their nonsense much less their insipid CYA referrals to cover for her very apparent negligent work.
There is a lot of good dentists in the area, and she is not amongst them. In fact I would say, and definitively, she is thee worst dentist I have ever had the misfortune to have been, unknowingly, and unintentionally,( as in i never asked to see her, much less booked an appointment with her, i thought it was Dr. Blum i was seeing), to be placed in her negligent and incompetent care.
Beware, is all i would say to any new patients, and do not take her recommendations for anything without a second opinion, or you will end up getting and needing that second opinion anyway, to correct her incompetent, negligent and sometimes as in my case unnecessary work. read more
