they suck at timeliness and they don't do their jobs. i have sat in then waiting room for hours and sat in the chairs for upwards of 30 minutes because they were decorating the office rather than working on my teet.

Whatever you do, don't make the same mistake as I did and go to these crooks for the last several years. They not only lie, leave you on hold for twenty minutes at a time, But they also overcharge Significantly. I had a root canal and a crown done a year and a half ago in 2023, For which they charge me $2000 for (I got quoted for 500 somewhere else afterwards - straight CROOKS). They said my insurance was good to go and then my claim was accepted. For months, I was receiving emails with statements for 500$ EXTRA dollars with... read more

if i could give zero or negative stars i would. i am a man that not only talks the talk, he walks the walk (see those attached receipts) i went for standard cleaning and x-rays. the exam and x-rays went well but when it came down to the treatment plan i feel a huge upscaling of prices leaning heavyily in the predatory kinda style. when i told them about this and went over the codes they stated they had different codes that needed to be done and that it was "a must and required" and no dental work could happen unless i d... read more

First time patient, and last time patient. I had an appointment, arrived on time, and was made to wait. It took a hour before they started cleaning my teeth. The dentist told me I needed 2 cavity fillings. They explicitly told me it would be $325 for 1 filling (without insurance) and $157 (with insurance). They told me my insurance only covered metal fillings and that they don't do metal fillings so therefore I have to pay the $157 for ONE filling. This felt very expensive for a filling so I later called my insurance and the... read more

I can't give any reviews on this... Because I have not been cared for here. They have not been able to care for my demented husband very well...the request for a male dentist for him has been ignored. Anxiety has been extremely displayed because of the waiting time, Past the appointment time. 40 minutes past the time is like waiting all day to a person with dementia.

First time patient. I was excited about being able to book an appointment very quickly, I arrived on time, was not told to arrive early for my 8am appointment. I completed the seemingly 200 question survey when I arrived. Then I was made to wait for 40 minutes before finally being brought back. I opted out of x rays as I am a nursing mother. They denied me a cleaning and visual exam unless I took x rays. I promptly left after having wasted an hour of sick time from work and received no care as per their policy. There is no r... read more

I walked into the room and they hadn't changed any of the equipment and this specifically was dirty. I'm assuming this was from a previous patient but it had blood on it!! That's so gross! Imagine they had used it on me and I hadn't noticed it was dirty.

My parents went to get some cavities filled and the front desk people tried to take advantage of them. They made them believe that WITH insurance, their work would cost 2k. The receptionist even commented that they had great insurance as they would've had to pay closer to 8k without it. In any case, once my parents decided to double check all the items they were charged for and check what their insurance covers, they realized that all of the services they received should've been FREE. We also realized that they didn't run an... read more
