1 /5 TMARIE 2U: I looked at the reviews and saw the four stars, assumed I was in good hands. Boy, was I wrong. I went in for x-rays and cleaning and planned to pay out-of-pocket because I have HMO insurance and Hadn’t yet switched over to PPO. I had an event planned and I needed my teeth cleaned ASAP. I knew it might be hard for me to squeeze in an appointment if I had went through HMO insurance and tried to schedule an appointment with my assigned dentist. Every dentist I called was booked until July so I was grateful they had openings. The assistant at the front was friendly, and the dental assistant was friendly as well and held a conversation with me. The Dr. seemed friendly, and was giving great advice about my teeth! Everything went sideways when she started to clean my teeth. She scraped, rinse, brush, and was done within 10 minutes!!! She expected me to pay $210 out-of-pocket for a half-done job. I told her every dentist I’ve visited has at-least spent 20 minutes doing a proper cleaning and I pay enough attention to know the proper steps to a cleaning. She had the nerve to tell me teeth cleaning doesn’t have a time limit and that she told me my teeth wasn’t going to be white, (I know the difference between a cleaning and teeth whitening) and that she did her job. That may be true but teeth cleaning does have steps, I’m sure you were taught in dental school therefore your job was not done. I did not pay for that improper cleaning but I did pay $125 for the x-rays. She told me she will send the rest to collections, and I stated I will dispute it because that was false advertisement of a service. If it comes down to me having to pay I will pay that dental office $5 for the next 17 months :) I will not be returning, Dr. Ahmed do better, are you doing it for money or because it’s a passion?
