Dr. Herbst does indeed have the awful bedside manner that the prior reviewer wrote of. He seems to almost be taunting patients about any cavities, etc., as well as being brash and agressive. He attempts to intimidate patients into getting work done. In discussing your teeth he is vague and patronizing.
Most aggregiously though, he is fraudulent. He told me I had nine cavities and needed 1200 dollars worth of work. I went to another dentist and found out I actually had two cavities - 200 dollars. This man would have drilled on perfectly healthy teeth.
He also tried to compel my mother into getting all of her silver fillings replaced with composite fillings, saying that it was absolutely necessary for her health, when actually this is an entirely cosmetic procedure. I also do not recommend this dishonest dentist to anyone.
out of 5 stars
