i went in for my first time appointment today to see Dr. Lata G. Beri on Garvey in El Monte.... during my x-ray, i told them i had 2 very bad teeth that had holes and the nerve was exposed. i have bad teeth and i have been trying to get them fixed, but i lost my insurance, for a very long time, and i finally got my insurance back and hurried and made an appointment. As the hygienist was taking x-rays, Dr. Beri asked me if i was taking anything for the pain, i said no. Dr. Beri said " then you are in no pain" and left the room. the hygienist, after taking the x-ray took me to another room, where dr. came in. when she looked into my mouth(as i stated i have bad teeth and i know this and am embarrassed of my teeth) she said right away "oh yeah, this is just a mess in here" which i found very un-professional... so of course, i was offended and asked her why cant my teeth just all be pulled? she got VERY angry with me and said "Medi-Cal doesn't pay for that and i will not do what you are telling me to do" i said, i never once told you to pull them, i asked if they all could be pulled. SHE REFUSED ME, AND KICKED ME OUT OF HER OFFICE. SHE IS UNBELIEVABLY RUDE, WOULD NOT LISTEN TO MY QUESTIONS, OVER-TALKED ME WHEN I TRIED TO TALK. RUDE!!
About Front Desk: she acted like she didn't know what she was doing.
About Hygienist: she was just as rude as the dentist... I LEFT THEIR CRYING OF PURE HUMILIATION....
I know this doctor: first visit
