Dr Ospina and staff were very gentle and caring in his private practice. They use a CT scan machine in addition to xrays. The first few visits with the hygienist went very well. All staff in the office are Hispanic except one hygienist. I had not been to the dentist in 4 years before Dr Ospina. I was told I needed deep cleaning, braces, 2 root canals, my silver filling changed. I followed the plan for 4 visits where I only saw the hygienist for periodontal root plaining and a deep cleaning . On the most recent visit I wanted to split the visit into 2 visits because of financial reasons ( it would have been over $3000). I was to have all of my silver filling replaced and both of my crowns removed and redone because they were "leaking". I called the day before and told the receptionist who was less than helpful. I came in the day of my appointment and refused to sign consents until I spoke w Dr Ospina. I suggested replacing the silver fillings in one visit and doing the crowns on another. Dr Ospina said it was his philosophy to do all the work at one time using IV conscious sedation to make my teeth perfect and price was not his concern. He also said If I did not agree with his philosophy I should find a new dentist.
