Horrible customer service on follow up

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I was working out of town and had a tooth break. I had a tooth extracted from a Fort Worth, Texas location.

The ladies there are very nice. However, I don't think the doctor should have extracted my tooth. I ended up with four stitches and no antibiotics. I called for the next three days, and they kept saying to take aspirin and ibuprofen.

I ended up going to the ER for antibiotics. They tried to upsell things I didn't need. They informed me that I had gum disease.

However, when I went to my regular dentist upon returning home, they disagreed with the diagnosis and also suggested that an oral surgeon should have been called. I will be getting my $1,000 back for one tooth extraction.

Visit to the dentist

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

So, I'm reading these horrible reviews, and mine is the complete opposite. I saw Dr.

Cahall for a terribly infected tooth just this week. She gave me antibiotics, sent me home and pulled it the very next day. The best tooth I ever had, mind you. She was so kind to me, careful, gentle, skilled.

What are all the complaints about? The staff was awesome, kind, knowledgeable, and professional. Sometimes you need to look at the good in people instead of being disappointed if things don't go your way.

There are two sides to all stories. Aspen Dental are good people who try to help.

Just because you had ONE good experience means every other reviewer was either a liar or had a negative attitude? Get real!

Any decent dentist like the one you had leaves Aspen within 6 months.

It has the lowest pay and worst working conditions in the profession. And management are cheats and liars.

This west Springfield office is horrible. There was no communication between employees. I’d be told one thing/price, only to have it told to me differently at the time of service. They scheduled

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Ive basically been called a liar. One staff member will say one thing, and another will say the opposite.

And, of course, Im the one who supposedly heard it wrong They dont always do what they originally planned on any specific visit. Ive had a dentist and hygienist who were working on me speaking to each other in a different language. Ive had one of the financial workers snap at me.

(One time It was seen and heard by the office manager, who actually apologized to me for that persons behavior). Shes actually quite rude.

Hello my name is Marcy Jensen, I have been to the Aspen dental clinic several times now and it's been the most horrible experience I have ever dealt with. I was seen and treated by Dr.

Jonathan Thompson in which I required two crowns to be done. My first red flag was having to pay money up front BEFORE any work was even done. I was in excruciating pain for several weeks and had returned to see Dr. Thompson several times.

He and his assistant continuosly took out my temporary crown and kept adjusting it all while I was in a great deal of pain so the Dr prescribed me Tylenol 3 and Ibuprofen none of which helped. After dealing with this for several weeks I decided to see a different dentist only to find out the crown was "short" and wasn't covering my entire tooth and therefore causing me all the pain. I had to have the crown removed and redone at a different dental facility. I had been talking with the financial person Darlene Federly at the Owatonna clinic and when I last spoke to her on 06/10/2024 on a 3-way call with my dental insurance provider she said my insurance would be credited $548.50 or more and still to this day it hasn't happened.

I've called her several times and have been unable to reach her as I was told she's not available and doesn't have voicemail. I had to pay out of pocket to get my crown done correctly and would appreciate the portion my insurance paid to Aspen to be refunded asap. records will show you this is regarding the crown that was done on tooth #18.

My phone number is 952-486-**** and my email is marcymjensen@***.com. I would appreciate your prompt response to this matter.

They aren't going to return your insurance money. They never do unless ordered by a judge. Aspen is managed by industrial-strength criminats, not honest businessmen

Office has refused to provide services due to a bad review about the office manager

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

To keep this as brief as possible, I went in for my regular cleaning approximately 1 1/2 years ago. The receptionist told me that I had a balance of $90.

I was baffled, as I'd never had a balance before, so she explained that she would check into it. However, she stated that the only way I could be seen that day was to pay it off. I told her that was incorrect, and I would reschedule until the error was corrected. She called a few days later and explained that the insurance money, which covered my regular cleaning, had been returned to the insurance company.

I later discovered, months later, that the office manager was upset about my review of her only. She wanted me to pay out of pocket over my negative review of her. I'm so angry because I have been calling for over a year to speak with one of the doctors, but nobody will return my calls or allow me to speak with Dr. Nyguen or Dr.

Augustine to explain.

In the meantime, I'm considering small claims court because my crown has come off, and I'm experiencing all kinds of pain in my tooth because I can't receive the medical attention that I need. I was told by a former employee that this individual is very vindictive and fired her after she handed in her two weeks' notice, with only a few days of work left.

Crooks !!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Charged for services I did not receive, I was charged for a denture I had paid for in full, as well as for other estimated dental procedures. Read the fine print; they can charge more than the treatment plan estimate if they choose, which they do! Aspen Dental needs to be shut down for deceptive practices.

My plan was $1000. And I paid it!! And they just keep Makin me get more and more done. Until finally I said no more!!

I just want this over with. I'm trying to take care of my elderly father.

Worst place ever

I moved to Florida three years ago and found Aspen Dental on Google. That was where things went downhill.

I told them I wanted to get X-rays and sit down to talk about my options. I got yelled at by the office manager because he said he had gone through my options, but they did not, so I made a second appointment to go over options. Nobody showed up, so I left. I then decided that Aspen Dental was not for me, so I found a great local dentist.

In the transition from Aspen to my new dentist, Aspen forged my name on my CareCredit account for $2500 and maxed out my insurance. Now, remember all I had them do was get X-rays.

I am now trying to get my X-rays and they are being childish and withholding them from my new dentist. So, people, stay away from Aspen.

1. Why would any patient seek a dentist using Google, instead of asking friends, relatives, and coworkers for recommendations?

2.

Patients have a right to copies of their records for a reasonable fee. If Aspen won't do it, report them to your state dental board.

Aspen Dental - Manger problems

Had a bad filling done and when I lodged a formal complaint, they refused to correct it. They dismissed me as a patient.

I can't get a refund either.

My dentist was having a personal conversation while she was filling my teeth, which I found unprofessional. She finished quickly, didn't do a good job and left my teeth very ragged and sharp, scratching my tongue.

Blaming everyone for problems.Not taking responsibility for their issues

Original review Jul 14, 2024

I am a patient and I have called and left five messages in two and a half months concerning the status of my dentures. No one will call me back.

I called Aspen Dental customer service and they promised a return call from my local office.

Still, there has been no return call. This is not how you treat paying customers.
