As for your costs, mine were no where near what you stated. Everyone, including the dentist gave me plenty of time. We are very pleased with service and costs at that office.

If you read my other post, I was only going by the photos on the wall and they do show quite a few people. When I was there I did see five or six staff members -- 2 hygientists, two gals at the desk and a couple of people back and forth back in the hallway (not patients). My incorrect information is only based on what I was told by one of his staff. Perhaps I misunderstood something, but that person clearly told me it was a vacation, not a one day thing. I'm glad that is the case and it makes more sense.

My husband's teeth were cleaned by Charlotte and he was pleased with her cleaning. I don't remember the gal's name who cleaned my teeth, but she only did a fair job for me, and my opinion is based on other cleanings I have had in the past.

The bill my husband and I received was as I stated. I have to tell you that I was shocked when we got that bill. Dr. Jerkins came into the hygientist's room, looked at my x-rays, looked at my teeth and told me I needed to see a periodontist. That was the extent of my exposure to him. He did not give me any kind of explanation for his comments and was pretty much gone in a flash.
