Dr. Blizzard is an absolutely terrible dentist. He installed a crown incorrectly and after only a couple of years, it broke off with part of my tooth. I was in extreme pain, and at first his office wouldn't return my calls or set up an emergency appointment. I ended up waiting in his office for a couple of hours until he finally saw me. Because the tooth was infected, I had to get a root canal, which he broke up over three visits and never finished (I finally changed insurance, so I'm seeing another dentist about it now). I was a patient for years, and during that time I endured not only long office waits (sometimes up to 45 minutes or an hour after my appointment was supposed to start), but constant cancellations. Towards the last couple of years I saw him (2010-2012), at least a third of my appointments were cancelled for various reasons. He rushed through cleanings and was abrasive and dismissive of my concerns. He didn't seem interested in my dental health, and he was rude to both patients and his employees--he treated everyone around him like an idiot, and often took the opportunity while he had his hands in my mouth to spout political rhetoric. Overall, he is the dentist of nightmares.

About Front Desk: The receptionist is very unprofessional. She never returned calls and most of the time, she never even answered the phone. When my tooth broke, I ended up seeing a dentist who is a friend of my father-in-law just so I could get the crown removed and some advice on what to do. When I told her about it, she implied that I should not have done that because Dr. Blizzard would take offense, and advised me to lie to him about it because it would upset him.

I know this doctor: several years
