I have Blue Cross dental insurance through my job, yet Dr. M. added costs to every possible angle of care. The worst was that he charged me $15 per prescription (for the piece of paper) when I was already paying the pharmacy a co-pay fee for the medication. I felt in each case, he took advantage of my needing care to try to wheedle more money out of me; that was very discouraging and made me doubt that I could trust his advice. He also spoke very unkindly to his assistant all throughout my treatment and scolded every staff member in his office for one thing or another.
