STAY AWAY FORM MARK TSUEI!!!
I am in the midst of a root canal/crown treatment that Mark Tsuei claimed necessary when I lay in his chair. After he had pulled out the nerves from my tooth, he explained that the treatment wasn't necessary but preventative and that my insurance company (Cigna HMO) does not pay for preventative procedures. He asked me to pay the full fee of $950 for the root canal treatment.
Once at home, and with a now aching tooth, I called Cigna and was told that whatever the reason for the procedure (necessity or preventative), my co-payment for a root canal is $305. I was also told that all the fees Mark Tsuei had quoted were too high: according to my plan, a root canal/crown treatment is about $750 and Mark Tsuei was trying to get me to pay close to $1,700!
I'll let you draw your own conclusions about his dental work, but my mind is made up: to ensure I do not have any unnecessary, extensive, time-consuming, and painful dental work done, I am never putting my foot in Mark Tsuei's office again!!!
