I was new to the area and came in for a routine cleaning. During my exam, I noticed I had some sensitivity near my gum line. Dr. Elfers recommended a filling in that area to patch the exposed root, which I was fine with. She said that if I was coming in for one filling, I might as well have a few others done in some deep grooves I had in other teeth as a preventative measure. I was worried about this, as I was unsure if I could afford the cost. Her billing department said they ran my insurance and that my insurance would cover the entire cost of the procedures, and I would only be responsible for paying $25 out of pocket. I trusted her front office staff, and scheduled an appointment the fillings for a few weeks later. Months after my appointment, I am slammed with a dental bill for $380, when I was told it would only cost $25!! I would have never agreed to have all of this work done if I knew it was going to cost that amount! When I called to discuss this with them they said that they can't predict what the insurance will pay and that I would be responsible for the balance. I'm unsure why they initially told me that my insurance would cover the cost except for the $25 copay and they are now telling me they can't predict what the insurance will cover. Something doesn't add up. Her front office admitted to me that someone must have made a mistake when they initially gave me the quote, but are unwilling to own up to their mistake and make the situation right. Moral of the story: get EVERY billing quote in writing BEFORE you have work done with this office, or better yet go elsewhere. I see from previous reviews on Google that I am not the only person who has had an issue like this with this office. With the large amount of dental practices Hyde Park has to offer, I don't understand how they can get away with treating their patients in this way.

They repeatedly violated my HIPPA rights. The dentist and his assistants repeatedly asked me…read morepersonal, prying questions that had absolutely nothing to do with the work he was doing on my teeth. He and his staff made me extremely uncomfortable. When I expressed my concern, the dentist became rude and mean in a very patronizing way because I spoke up about it. On a subsequent visit, I arrived a few minutes late wearing a boot because my leg was injured, and the escalator wasn't working that morning in the building his office is located. When I walked in, he gruffly told me to sit down and open my mouth, then jabbed me hard with a needle with no warning to numb my teeth, in what I believed was retaliation, after I politely requested his staff to stop violating my privacy. In prior visits, he informed me what he was going to do. After treating me disrespectfully, he then rudely lectured me on being a few minutes late, that one occasion, like I was a child and not a grown woman, never acknowledging the accessibility issues in his building that morning. His assistant took pictures of my teeth with a polaroid camera and X-rays at my first visit, but later claimed at my second visit, that they delayed that they didn't take pictures or couldn't locate them for my follow- up visit and took the same pictures again. I still wonder to this day, considering how violative they were of my privacy, what they did with the first set of pictures that I absolutely know they took. I should've never returned after that, considering how odd that my pictures disappeared. The first thing the lady did was take pictures of those teeth. I have always had bright white teeth; yet after multiple visits there, I noticed little nicks and stains in my teeth that were not there before I went. Be would sand teeth that he was not working on. I never felt comfortable with that, as I've never had a dentist do that before, which might explain the nicks. That was also the only time in my life where a hygienist cleaned my teeth and the dentist did not come in to check her work on my teeth after she finished. Is that even legal? The dentist also told me about a few of other patients that I had no idea were his patients, before he told me, violating their privacy too. He also repeatedly questioned me about my prior dentists, asking questions that I didn't believe was his business to ask. Ultimately, he became really mean and condescending at my last visit, in a scary way; his personality changed in such a bad way after I requested his office to respect my privacy, that I never went back. That was by far the worst most bizarre dental experience in my life.

I used to go here when my longtime dentist retired but I think I only lasted a couple appts because…read morethey were so pushy, sales-y and aggressive. A doctor should never be a salesman, but an advocate. I had gone in for a cleaning and asked if they could round off a tooth that was poking me.... 20 minutes later, the doctor had used a putty to reshape all of my teeth to tell me how much better veneers would look on me. They also apparently had to fill all these cavities I supposedly had. My doctor was appalled at how deep they drilled for a routine cavity and now I may have to get a root canal as a result. Truly the worst type of people that only want your money and that's it. Never would recommend as a dentist. Unrelated, but when calling them just now to reschedule an appt for my boss, Google lists two different numbers and their website has a third number. Shocker, all if the numbers lead to the same time with a menu to choose from. All choices lead to someone named Tristan and it goes straight to her voicemail without ringing and once you get to the end and are waiting for the beep to leave a message, the phones hang up on you. Every single time. Literally every time I learn something new about this dental group it's always bad. Don't waste your time, money, or sanity.
