Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

PATIENT BEWARE
PATIENT BEWARE! These guys do not accept ANY INSURANCE! They are completely OUT OF NETWORK with every company. They will NOT tell you this upfront. They will shove a multi page contract in your face with faded out print and try to get you in as quickly as possible. If you ask them, if they are out of net work, they will tell you that they are, but they negotiate prices with the insurance company that make them comparable to your co-pay. THEY LIE! They know you need to get in because you are in pain. They don’t want to loose the money that they are going to over charge you. This is most likely why insurance companies will not keep them in network. When I got in to see this guy, all he could talk about was money, himself, and what a devout Christian he was. What an INSULT!

This dentist is a complete joke. He has cost me so much money. I had a root canal done about 4 years ago. Went back to him recently bc i am still having sensitivity to hot and cold. Also another tooth was bothering me and needed a root canal. He did one tooth and im still having problems with it. He did the one next to it bc he said it was that one. I wasn't even having problems with it. He laughed at me said there's no way he made a mistake and messed up anf old root canal. Said my teeth look

He lied and was terribly mean to me after my root canal. Told me I was lying when I said tooth still hurt. Do not trust this man with mouth.
