While the dentist at this practice is highly skilled, our experience with the office staff has been…read moredeeply disappointing and stressful. We have repeatedly encountered unprofessional behavior, including being spoken to in a condescending manner, interrupted, and even yelled at over the phone--making it nearly impossible to voice concerns or ask questions. Additionally, there have been ongoing issues with insurance billing. Despite confirming coverage and accurate information with both of our insurance providers, the office has continued to submit claims incorrectly. When we've tried to bring this to their attention, instead of resolving the matter calmly, we've received harassing and aggressive phone calls--sometimes while caring for our 2.5-month-old baby at home. Most concerning is the unwillingness of the staff to allow communication with a manager or the dentist when we requested help. Threatening to send a patient to collections while refusing to acknowledge or correct their own billing errors is unacceptable. Because of the repeated mistreatment and lack of professionalism, we will not be returning to this office. Patients deserve to be treated with respect and to have billing concerns addressed, not ignored or escalated through hostile interactions.

I didn't know what to expect my first time (yesterday) coming in (I had a broken tooth), but Dr. Shindollar and his staff went to town right away and within an hour and fifteen minutes I was set. I would (and will) recommend anyone who lives within driving distance to go to Caton Crossing Dental Care if they are looking for a new dentist. I will be encouraging my family to come in as well.

I initially liked and trusted my previous dentist at this office, but after they moved, I was…read morescheduled with Dr. Ke (David) Xu. Unfortunately, my experience with him was negative enough that I no longer feel comfortable being treated at this practice. He tries to come across as direct and humorous, but I found the approach unprofessional and uncomfortable. He also seemed more interested in making conversation about my workplace and stocks rather than focusing on the appointment. My main concern, however, was his treatment plan. He recommended a crown for one of my front teeth--an issue another dentist later resolved by simply shaving the tooth slightly, which took only a few minutes and required zero crowns. Dr. Xu also recommended a total of six crowns, which immediately felt like a red flag, especially when he described front-tooth crowns as "jarring" and asked that I pay the full cost of all six upfront in case insurance didn't cover it. My new dentist emphasized preserving natural tooth structure, and that approach fully resolved my problem. Based on my experience, Dr. Xu's recommendations did not align with that philosophy. While I can't speak for the entire office, this encounter left me with concerns about overtreatment. Experiences like this contribute to distrust in dental care--especially in communities already hesitant to seek treatment.

I came to Catonfield Dental with a serious tooth infection that was causing me fever and visible…read moreswelling. The dentist took an X-ray, confirmed the infection, and referred me to a root canal specialist -- which was understandable and professionally handled. However, after the specialist told me the tooth needed to be extracted, I returned to Catonfield Dental in pain, still with fever and on antibiotics. What truly upset me was the receptionist's attitude -- she showed zero empathy, was rude, and scheduled my appointment four days later, even though I explained I was in urgent condition. I'm not upset with the dental staff or the referral to the specialist -- but the lack of care and compassion from the front desk was extremely disappointing. When you're in pain and need help, you expect understanding -- not indifference. PS: The lady at the front desk gave me the appointment four days later, on July 25, 2025.

I've struggled with…read moresevere dental phobia for years, and I initially found him because he offers services to special needs kids. I thought, if he can be amazing with them, he'd likely be great for me too - and I was absolutely right. He and his team are personable, kind and compassionate. They truly understand how dental work can be an unpleasant experience, and try to make it better by giving you a sense of control during the entire process. The best way for me to sum up Dr Lance, is he doesn't just work on your teeth; he treats you as a human being because he understands dental work is an experience you're going through. His patience and understanding made all the difference. I left each appointment feeling not only that my dental health was in excellent hands but also that I was genuinely cared for as a patient. If you're like me and have dental anxiety, I highly recommend giving this dentist a try. You'll find a knowledge, supportive and compassionate team. I can't thank them enough for making my dental visits a positive and manageable experience. I recommend him without hesitation to anyone seeking a great dentist!

Before I begin- I gave this office and Dentist every opportunity to connect and resolve the…read moreconcerns via telephone and/or meeting. The requests fell on deaf ears so here we go... I have a 12yr background in dentistry (patient's daughter), so I know the proper standards of care. My mother was a patient here of record for about 3+ years after she retired and was left with small options for affordable dental insurance. Dentists should not dictate the care patients are receiving judging by their dental insurance whether PPO, HMO, Medicare. They should be treated fairly. This office DOES NOT offer proper standard of care- so please be very cautious coming here- especially older patients or those with state aid/Medicare/Medicaid. My mother has always suffered from gingivitis and periodontal disease like most people in the USA. This office has been having the dentist see patients for dental cleanings because they refuse to employ a proper Dental Hygienist to help with these preventative procedures. (don't tell me there are no staff and that there is a shortage from COVID still, you can find a great Hygienist if you pay them fairly and treat them right- be ready to shell out $45-50 per hour, they are worth it) To make a short story long- A dentist does not go to dental school to provide cleanings and these sorts of preventative procedures- they went to school to learn how to 'drill and fill' and to produce, well at least this dentist here at Valley Dental Care did. Dentist make MAYBE a few $100 if that for these types of preventative visits so what this office does is they double/triple side book patients in for cleanings while the Dentist is seeing other patients for PRODUCTIVE visits- like fillings and crowns etc (that actually bring in $$) Never ONCE in my entire dental career have I ever heard of a patient, who has crowns, partials, AND an implant to not have their gums charted at least 1x per year OR have a 3-month perio-maintenance cleaning to last less than the standard 50-60mins. Not until I dropped my mom off for her 3-month dental cleaning appointment (which she was 3months delayed for due to knee replacement- So I knew this appointment would be at LEAST an HOUR) but she returned to my car just after 10 short mins. I asked her what they did, and she stated the Dentist came in and looked in her mouth and took the gritty paste (prophy paste) and used a dental hygiene cup attachment, cleaned her teeth and sent her on her way. I was APPAULLED. I called the office later that day to inquire of the procedure she had, and the front desk person was confused and put me on hold to speak with I am assuming an assistant to confirm the visit. I complained then and requested she offer my mother another perio-maint appointment since I know the following was not completed: my mother did NOT have her teeth scaled properly; she did not have her gums charted (where they call out #s 2,3,4,5 etc), no probing- this was completely negligent on the Dentist's part. By not completing the cleaning as required- you are putting my mother at risk of further progression of the disease. I mean, I get it- as a struggling Dentist--who wouldn't put their patients at further risk of root resorption and bone loss because HEY! more $$ in the dentist's pocket when he/she tells you that now it's time for a crown or maybe even an implant or worse- lets extract all teeth and pop in dentures! If this is how you expect to grow a practice or stay in business with an active dental license you are greatly underestimating your future and are on the edge of lawsuits. This office does not advocate for their patient's oral health, especially the elderly. The will also take you for everything you are worth- they will take x-rays regularly 1x per year or more and then blame insurance that you have a frequency limitation and that your insurance is a contract between you and them and NOT the office so the $200+ dollars in unnecessary x-rays/radiographs they took TOO EARLY are now patient balance because they would rather charge the patient than go the extra mile and know the frequency of coverage and wait a week or reschedule an appointment to when it would have been covered. This review is in no way a threat, it's a promise that you will have a report to the Licensing Board about your malpractice. Current and future patients BEWARE- RUN- SAVE YOUR $$ and the teeth you still have and go somewhere else before you become a victim of negligence, elder abuse, or worse!

I wanted to love this office and I honestly was very close to it. I enjoyed the initial visit and…read morethe dentist was very nice and personable. The front desk staff? No. Adriana was patient and thorough. Once I got denied by my insurance to cover a deep cleaning, I figured ok well I can at least get a regular cleaning. I requested to schedule that, and got told through text I couldn't get a regular cleaning because the dentist recommends a deep cleaning. The deep cleaning out of pocket is $400 per side of mouth. I disclosed to them that paying $800 for a deep cleaning isn't something I'm able to do at the moment. I decided to call, because surely this response was mistaken. I called and unfortunately I spoke with a "Maya". She rudely asks for my first and last name and puts me on a 10 minute hold, never once checking back. I call back and she immediately puts me on hold, and doesn't confirm who I am or what I'm calling for. After another 2-3 minute hold, she gets back on the phone and just says, "how may I help you?" I explained I was the same person on hold waiting for an answer about a regular cleaning. She proceeds to say, "Yeah, so you can't get a regular cleaning because..." She begins rattling off the many things going on with my teeth from my private dental chart. I then asked her if I could speak with the dentist, and she responds very snarky, "He doesn't speak with patients over the phone." I asked if I could speak with a manager instead, and she sarcastically responds with, "That's who you were texting...." I ignored her remark and asked again to speak with the manager. Annoyed, she says, "I'll have to put you on hold, she's with a patient." At this point, I'm sure you can understand my frustration. Instead of becoming insulting like she was probably aiming for me to be, I asked her to confirm the manager's name. She finally discloses the woman's name as Adriana. I then asked her name and she dryly and a bit hesitant said, "Maya." Her attitude over the phone matches her demeanor in person. She has a very nasty disposition and it's unfortunate that there's a possibility first time clients speak with her first. If I hadn't spoken with nicer people at that office and spoke with "Maya" first, I'd think the whole staff is like her and wouldn't go there at all. Not only that, but when I came into that office for the first time, she had either been coming in from break or coming in for the day. The whole office environment changed. She sat at the front with a stale face, rolling her eyes at patients and some staff when interacting with them. Isn't it illegal to disclose patient information over the phone without confirming who you're speaking with? I never told her my name when I called back. She just began exposing sensitive information freely out of frustration because I asked about why I couldn't have a regular cleaning versus a deep cleaning. Isn't that a violation of hippa? I'm almost positive I'm not the only one that has said something about her attitude. It's always one of us mistreating one of us. I can handle being told I "don't qualify for a regular cleaning because I'm a smoker..." (I'm not a smoker, but good job Maya for doing too much...) but for my whole chart to be disclosed without prior approval? That's a problem. I'll make sure I look into Maya. Back to the situation at hand, how is it that I cannot get a regular cleaning if that's what I ask for? My insurance doesn't allow me to pay out of pocket for services. So if they're denying me coverage for what the dentist is recommending........I do not want to pay $800 unexpectedly........and my insurance is saying I cannot pay out of pocket anyway......I can't get the bare minimum of a regular cleaning? I'd assume if a dentist cares about their patient's teeth, they'd do what they can and take care of the patient as best they can. Had I gotten a better explanation and probably not spoken to "Maya," I would have eventually just gone ahead and put the charges on my care credit and fought with the insurance about it later just because I really wanted to stick with Todays dental. I've spoken to several people thus far about the way this situation was just handled, and I was simply told if I'm being treated this way now, I probably wouldn't want them working on my mouth. That statement is SO valid. Thanks, but no thanks. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt you guys to lose one patient, but word of mouth travels pretty quickly. Especially when it's negative. Hopefully, something is done about your front desk staff's bedside manner.
