out of Read Reviews for Dr. Thomas Anderson
He is fraud, not trustworthy. At first visit he told CC, there are 10 tooth need crown. CC had a regular dentist, never out of service, that is his way to bury seed: teeth need lot of work, lots of money. Anderson charged $1775 before any work. I asked to work on 2 crowns for insurance reasons. He insist 3 crowns once to max out his profits. I pointed out he over charged $120, based on insurance paper, the office refused to refund. it took several attempts and half year to get money back. The worst part is CC constantly feel pain, and discomfort after his work. We are looking for another dentist now.

BEWARE of this Dentist!
This office will impress you with tons of extras, DVD players, and decor. This is just to make you feel comfortable but my experience with him was fraudulent at best. I was told that I had two bad cavities in my back teeth and four others. He sold me on porcelain overlays for them and talked a great talk.
The office manager told me that the work after insurance would be around 900-1000 so I told them to go ahead with the work. After the work was completed, the bill was over 2000. They told me they are not responsible for what the insurance paid or didn't even if they pre-certified. At this point, I felt I was being scammed.
I asked a good friend what they thought of all of it and they referred me to their dentist who was less than half the normal cost of Thomas Anderson's office. When I saw the new dentist, as others have reported as well....NO 4 Cavities!!! DO NOT TRUST THEM.
I am now less than 5 years later from the expensive overlays this dentist sold me on and they are decaying around the edges and were not sealed correctly. So now I have to get two crowns for the same teeth. Making these two teeth NOW the most expensive dental bill ever. This is why I felt I must post a review to prevent others

I was referred to Dr. Anderson by a friend, who had only gotten a cleaning and had good things to say. I was shocked when I left his office after my cleaning and 8 x-rays. He said I needed $2,400 worth of fillings for "small" cavities. I'm 37, have good oral hygiene and have NEVER had a filling in my life. I went to another dentist for a second opinion. That dentist didn't recommend even ONE filling for me, and I even had a 2nd set of x-rays taken there just to be sure. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS DENTIST TO ANYONE.

They are good but very costly. Always encourage the most expensive treatments and sometimes start a treatment before you have agreed to it.

He and his staff are friendly and concerned with my comfort. They have a paraffin wax dip for your hands, movies you can choose while having your procedure done, chair massagers and nitrous. Believe it or not, I actually look forward to my visits!

Tom Anderson is an outstanding dentist.
He takes time to know each patient and explain what he finds and what he recommends.

Dr. Anderson is friendly, but pushes veneers.. he is hardly in the room, leaving you with his assistants to complete the work. I got my permanent crown cemented and did not see him at all that day. I feel he is very expensive. I am under the impression that some of the girls that work in the clinical side of things are not very experienced. He does not have hygeinists and I believe that his assistants are cleaning the teeth. Is this legal? I will not go back to see him.

I have never been treated so well by a Dentist. No pain, he is always concerned about how I was doing. He is wonderfully gentle and make you feel at ease. Everyone should have a dentist like Dr. Anderson.
About Hygienist: They are all very sweet and gentle. They made me feel like a queen instead of a patient.
