I had been going to West Side Dental for a couple years, with no problems.
One time I had an appointment scheduled, but I had bronchitis, so I had to call (at least 24 hours before, I've always been respectful of giving that much and more for any appointments anywhere. I'm pretty sure I gave WSD 48 hours that time) to reschedule. They put me in for an appointment the following week, but my bronchitis was still bad, so I had to call back to reschedule (again, giving at least 24 notice).
They informed me then that I was kicked out of their practice, for canceling 2 times. I said, but I have bronchitis and am still coughing a lot.
Didn't matter. I was kicked out for being sick and unable to go to my appointments.
Was I supposed to go in, coughing so that there was no way they could have worked in my mouth, and have them say that they can't work on me with me coughing so much???
I called after hours, after the shock wore off and the anger set in. I left a voice mail, using words, I'm sure, like "stupid" "moronic", you know, the appropriate words to describe what they did to me.
Dr Dave left a voice mail the following day saying to not berate his staff.
Well, I believe it is necessary to berate staff, who does something like that. Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows what they did was WRONG. If anything, the dds should have apologized for his staff's actions.
