Then I called and they said they were checking on my claim and that it would not help if I called Blue Cross directly and it would just slow down their response. The professionalism of this placed vanished. I never heard back. I called again and they said that Blue Cross would not pay since they follow Medicare which they acknowledge that they do not accept, However they never indicated that Blue Cross could not pay without Medicare, This practice is not for anyone on Medicare or above 60 because you will be forced to leave unless you can pay cash. When I went they also said that a portion of my first visit would be covered by Delta Dental. No it was not. They sent a bill without any explanation as to what it was for. Upon calling they said it was because Delta Dental would not cover it. It seems like they are ashamed to admit their errors and will just ignore their patients. In the context of being a practice for a select few they should be avoided at all cost. Their doctors may be good but they have poor to non existent communication skills. I wasted two months waiting for a response.. I only got one because I called. I still do not know the status of the cyst I had to have biopsied. This could be a catastrophic mistake..

My dentist referred me to WE to get a 3D x-ray to determine if root canal was feasible (visible…read morecracks above gum; through-the-cheek x-ray looked OK, but 3D shows more). WE refused to do the 3D x-ray. When pressed, she said she could do the 3D x-ray after doing a root canal - if I wanted it. [Why do the test to see if root canal is feasible AFTER the root canal?] Instead, she duplicated the through-the-cheek x-ray that the dentist had done a few days earlier. [Supposedly, ADA recommendations on lead shielding have been relaxed because, among other things, with digital x-rays, there's no need for duplicates. WE doesn't use lead shields AND does unnecessary x-rays.] Then, WE did the same exam that the dentist had done - though following an inflexible procedure: Positioned my arm on my leg and said to raise it if I felt pain. Tapped on a different tooth. I looked at her and said, "Of course it doesn't hurt; you're tapping on the wrong tooth." She started over again, placing my arm on my leg... I glared at her as she tapped on the wrong tooth again. Eventually, she tapped on the tooth that I had gone to her for, and I raised my hand. Sprayed something like liquid nitrogen on the tooth to determine temperature sensitivity. Then declared "The roots are dead; I'll do a root canal.". [Never checked the roots themselves.] Charged $355 to do what the dentist had already done (for less money).... I found another endodondist who did the 3D x-ray. I suspect my dentist referred me because WE is owned by the same chain that bought my dentist's practice. I'll start looking for another dentist, now. The stupidity continues. I got a phone call from them about the above review. They claimed that they were trying to save me money by not doing the 3D x-ray. Then, why did she offer to do it AFTER the root canal? Then, the 3D x-ray would have been a complete waste. She also said that the through-the-cheek x-ray wasn't good enough. [Why not mention that?] I brought up the fact that, in the waiting area, I was notified that they were running late 35 minutes after my appointment time. I tried to explain that the time to tell a patient that you're running late is at or before the time at which they are late. She tried to justify giving notification after it's become obvious. They just don't get it. I just hung up.

About one month ago I had a horrible toothache , so I started to look for a dental office where…read morepatients can come to get an emergency help. I have found Aspen dental in Worcester, ma and made an appointment with their dentist. I just want to have an X ray for that tooth was bothering me. But I knew I had an issue with my gum and I believed it was infected and gave such a horrible pain . So, I came to that office in 537 Lincoln st , Worcester , and I had an x- ray there and met Dr Manson Uribe . I didn't ask her to help with all my teeth bc I knew from my regular dentist my teeth were good. But that Dr told me , I should have an extraction for 21 teeth ( 4 are under my bridges ) at a time. And then I will have dentures, that office can do these ones. I was shocked what she offered to me... and I couldn't think right bc of my gum pain and I agreed with her offer. But I called to my previous dentists who I had for 10 years and ask them about that extraction for 21 teeth. They both were surprised. If I followed that Dr offer , they will charge me for extraction and dentures 18.000$... And moreover , their manager open an account with some bank for 13.860$$ , and I still have problem to close that one... So, I can imagine how many patients were cheated by Dr Manson Uribe, and I want just warn people don't go to that aspen dental just bc that office has not honest drs . And more, some stuff don't listen to patient closely and make patient to come to their office twice for the same procedure.

He put bone dust in the area for healing, and after new bone growth had occurred, had installed a new implant post. Throughout it all, Dr. Rafla had a high degree of professionalism and empathy. He made this difficult transition not only possible, but much more comfortable than expected. I see some people have complained about the billing people, and I had similar problems with the old office staff. Dr. Rafla left that office perhaps 8 months ago, and much of his staff have followed him. The new office has different billing practices and I am comfortable with them.
