I went to Dr. Dinh after reading her glowing reviews online, and since her office is conveniently located. It's true, her office decor is very stylish and modern, the receptionist and assistants are kind, and the doctor is efficient and adept at what she does. Her cool, no-nonsense bedside manners kind of put me off, but I thought nothing of it. As long as she does the job well and is professional, I'm ok. But my last visit to her was shocking.
Granted, this was near the end of the day so she wants to go home sooner than later. But her bedside manners were deplorable and very unprofessional. When she was making the filling, I kept on swallowing because a piece of gauze inside was tickling my throat. But instead of stopping her work to ask me if I was ok, she kept on asking annoyingly "Why are you swallowing? I have to do this over again each time you swallow" while she kept on prodding my mouth with the tools. Afterwards, when I was supposed to chew down on a piece of paper to see if the filling was done right, she said impatiently to me "Why aren't you listening to me?" like I was a child when I wasn't chewing down as fast as she wanted. Even her assistant helping looked at her in surprise of how she was talking to me.
