started going to this practice years ago, seeing as it was very local for me work wise, etc. Although like other reviewers have mentioned about great location and nice office, blah blah blah......this dentist is very money hungry! Like I was saying going to her for years and literally I can recall my first visit paying out of pocket $900 dollars, they are not flexible on payment plans or anything. I think at the time I had to beg to have it broken up in payments. And if you are wondering what procedure I had done, IT WAS AN UNNECESSARY ONE! A deep cleaning, which I DIDN'T need but she has this funny way of convincing you or making you feel guilty in order to have you go through w/the procedure. After now leaving this practice my current dentist has made me aware that my gums and teeth did not need this harsh procedure done. After this mess she had me on a "preventative plan" meaning, having to come every 4 months rather than 6 month's why you ask? Something about to monitor my teeth and mouth health! Again, a bunch of bull to get the insurance company payments and mine to rack up as they only cover 2 cleanings a year. I stopped this quick. So time passes, I get married, bring my hubby into the practice for cleaning, etc. She ends up taking X-rays on his visit. Insurance bill gets submitted and life was okay. Then she happens to get "new machinery" in the office, well his next visit she is demanding that he take MORE. The same damn picture's because she knows the newer equipment will not be covered by the insurance and we will have to pay out of pocket. He refused and so the same day she tells him that they need to do some cleaning or something (I'm not a dentist, so I don't know all the procedures done) well she used some type of product that again, his insurance wouldn't cover! And so weeks later he gets slapped with a bill over a hundred dollars! And if you are thinking she doesn't know a patients insurance benefits, SHE and her STAFF DO! They don't allow you to make payments, they demand their share upfront rather than bill you after they submit the claim! All in all, we finally left this practice and will never recommend this dentist to anyone moving forward. Money HUNGRY is not even close to how she conducts business! Save yourself the drive, the time and more importantly, the money. Find a trustworthy and honest dentist...there are so many.

About Front Desk: The staff was always very helpful in all my visit, although the doctor spoke to them like they were children. Very belittling and bossy! Not right and it was a pain witnessing it on my visits.

I know this doctor: 4 years
