Patients/community members discuss treatment costs. (2023)
One of the main pages that I remember, and this stuck with me the whole time, it was that I wasn’t going to be able to go back there with them. And it said in the paperwork that if the dentist saw the need for additional care, I was authorizing in that moment by signing those papers to go ahead and do it despite of additional costs or charge that might go through my insurance or myself. That was one of the main things that I was like, okay, because I have heard some other people complaining about their kids having procedures that they really didn’t need it at the time, but just because they wanted to charge the insurance or charge that additional cost, they wouldn’t go ahead and do it. And at that moment I said, “You know what? I don’t think you guys are the right fit for me. I’m going to go ahead and leave.” They called me for weeks after that if I wanted to go back and do business with them.
