Treatment was to close a pocket in my gums using laser and cost over $900. Dr. Spillman treated the same area 5 years ago without laser and the condition returned, so this time I hope it will be successful. I highly recommend anyone seeking treatment to get a preauthorization from your insurance carrier. My out of pocket cost came in double the proposal amount. When I questioned it with the office, the office refused to offer any concession. This amount of under $300 is now in small claims court, and Dr. Spillman subsequently put it into collections and onto my credit rather than accept a settlement of half of the disputed amount or to wait for the court's ruling/judgment. Dr. Spillman was very friendly and sociable in the office, but turned quite the opposite during this process. Please be careful if you use this provider.
