This place has the worst receptionist, this the 2nd time they gave an appointment at a certain time, I get here wait for 40 mins and when I ask, they tell me it was an hour later!!!. Not counting the time I came in and waited, just to find out that they had change my appointment to another day.
The building is not maintained or cleaned regularly. The office staff are difficult to work with and make many errors in calculating co-pays, often resulting in over payment. Several times they have told us one appointment time only to put a different time in their system, resulting in missed appointments and rescheduling. I won't go back because of the quality of staff in the office. It's to frustrating to deal with the incompetence.
Business response:
Cheryl - I am updating our reply from May 2016 to invite you to come see our new office at 4755 Liberty Rd S. We are working hard to create the best experience possible for our patients. After an extensive search of our records, we cannot find someone of your name as a patient in our practice. Can you please do us a favor and give the office manager a call at 503-363-3311? We would like to discuss this with you and make sure you have the correct dental office. Thank you.
I had a broken off tooth and was told I needed an extraction and they scheduled me an app't. with an oral surgeon who in three weeks would then look at it and schedule a possible further date to do the surgery. Really?!!!
Was not happy. I went in for dentures and they did not want to do it. I had gum disease and it was painful. They had a take your daughter to work day and it got all messed up, while I was in pain. I did not go back. I saw no gentle about any of it. I was pissed.
Dr. Afshar is by far the wost dentist i ever had. He is the reason why people dont see a dentist. He has no patience for someone with bad teeth and then criticized without even knowing someone's back story . Not everyone grew up with money or insurance to get the perfect smile. The only one who seems to care was the receptionist, she was very sweet and asked me what she could do. I hope the new dentist she gave me will not be as shallow and maybe I'll be able to give a better review
I went to this dentist for a number of years but stopped because the dental hygienist engaged in behavior that could be described as bullying when I didn't want X-rays every year. Given published studies showing possible increased risk of brain cancer and the fact I had no symptoms of dental problems, I wanted less frequent X-rays. The dental hygienist said she wouldn't clean my teeth, unless I had X-rays, even though I had X-rays the previous year. I wish they would respect their patients' wishes and not force unwanted medi... read more
I wish I could give this place a half star, or zero. But they are the worst dentist office I've ever been to. The doctor is an ass, he has no form of bedside manner or as it would seem... Patience. The last appointment I had at this office, I watched the dental assistant setup the tools for the current procedure that day without using any pairs of gloves. The last straw for me was when I charged my dental work to the 0% APR card they offered via a third party vendor. I gave my SSN, ID and all proper paperwork. A month l... read more
Went yesterday as a new patient with a tooth ache and due to insurance this office was on my plan . This was my first appt . The assistant took my X-rays and she was very pleasant and seemed to want to help me . The doctor looked at my teeth , rattled off letters and numbers then told me that I had too much plaque and tartar for him to do a "debriefing " or that is what it sounded like . Told me to come back in a couple weeks so that I could brush and floss so that he could do whatever he said above . Then left . I could no... read more
This is a horrible dentist office please take my warning and go anywhere else!! I got mislead on braces and still need a lot more work! This dentist office only cares about how much money they make off their patiences!! They make you pay up front cause they know their services aren't up to par with other dentist offices! I've been telling all my friends and family to avoid this place please do the same, don't waste your money here!! P.S. Couldn't figure out how to give this place zero stars
