This amounts to $10,000 additional dollars a month they charge clients to cover the cost of their operation during this COVID crisis. I was told they had to buy different masks than what they normally use, which is BS. They were using the same masks they always use. THIS IS CRIMINAL! What are they using the 10K a month for (because of the virus)? They already use medical-grade masks and already have hand sanitizer. They are taking advantage of the clients to line the greedy owner's pockets. I would love to see them return the unnecessary fee they charged us during this uncertain time. They are a disgrace to take advantage of their clients this way!

I see absolutely nothing wrong with this. The majority of businesses are charging an additional fee. Its not just for masks and sanitizer. Its for additional sterilization, cleaning supplies or even cleaning service. If you dont like it, find another dentist, pay no fee (which I doubt) and chance the place not being cleaned properly. With everything thats occurring the last few months, you should find something more substantial to complain about.
