How Patients Feel
POSITIVEPatient Reviews
24Came for dental implant recently & she kept blaming my mouth that is too small for her to do the procedure well. I've had dental work done in the past -apicoectomy , root canal , orthodontics but those dentists never made a comment about the size of my mouth. Her dental assistant doesn't apply lip balm on the lips before the procedure . They don't have the appliance to hold mouth wide while she does the procedure . They don't care with your dry lips & mouth ( because of continuous suctioning ) how it hard it is to keep your mouth wide open . She got annoyed when i had to take time out to rinse & moisten my mouth with water . She got annoyed & yelled at me when I winced when she gave me the parenteral anesthesia. I was shocked & never expected her to be this rude , she probably thought i was overreacting. She kept saying insincere apologies & asked how amI doing when she doesn't really care at all how i felt . I didn't find her light handed when she tried to insert the dental abutment for my implant - hits my lips & expect you not to winced . The dental abutment slipped from her hand , good thing I was able to catch it with my tongue & not swallow it . My experience may not be the same for other patients . Probably I was the only one among her patients she had a hard time doing the implant / abutment because of my anatomy . I just wish it wouldn't happen to anyone especially when you had invested time & money for costly& lengthly dental procedure & treatment .I left crying in disbelief and walked out of her clinic that day because I cannot reconcile the person with all her credentials , positive reviews , accolades and their business advertisement is capable of doing it to me as her patient. Until now i'm still in shocked & disbelief and i'm trying to look for answers .if there is one thing I am 100 % sure of , i've never been a difficult patient to any of my doctors except perhaps to Dr. Gomez .
