I went to Martin and Winkler since I was a baby, and for all of those years I’ve never had an issue. Great care, helping with my anxiety and talking to me through my appointments. However I had an accident in 2021 and it was like a complete turn in their behavior. Three of my teeth were knocked out and to say it was traumatic puts it lightly, I wasn’t in the right mindset. They made fun of me for bringing a stuffed animal to my appointments, saying that I was too old for those things. They also said with the dental bridge I ended up having I could only drink soup as food for the rest of my life, which years later is a giant lie I’m able to eat fine. And they also said to me with my bridge if it ever needs to be worked on it would rip out my teeth underneath, so I would end up having to just deal with implants. Which..Is also a lie, there’s ways to safely remove them. I have since stopped going there and I can say the way they have treated me has affected the way I trust dentists and the PTSD I now have from my accident. Edit: I also forgot that my mother paid for all the work done to my teeth and they overcharged her $800, and getting the money back took more then two months.
I’ve had Dr Martin as my dentist for years, for extensive work (root canals, crowns, and implants). He’s wonderfully kind but also very professional. He explains what’s going on with my teeth, what my treatment options are. I have had a couple of urgent dental problems (loose crown, broken tooth) and have never had to wait more than a day to be seen. The office staff has been nothing but helpful. (For the reviewer complaining about a certain channel playing in the waiting room, the TV has been on HGTV every time I have been there.) I’d give it five stars except for the cost of implants even with insurance.
Cancelled My Childrens appts several times to call us week or so before there cleaning after waiting 6 months to say they cant accept anymore Patients Gave us a Run Around. Unprofessional Dont waste Your Time with this poorly Run Dentist. 0 Stars
I find it laughable that someone would give a 1 Star rating because of what news broadcast is playing in the lobby. They did a beautiful job with my teeth and ultimately that is what I care about the most when it comes to a dental practice.
