Steen, Gary N DDS

Went to see Dr. Steen for a procedure and having been to may different dentists in my life, this was the absolute worst. First of all, after I'm in the chair and ready to begin, he says to me he'll be right back and I don't see him for another half hour. Then he finally starts the root canal, then leaves again in the middle for a half hour. He did this three times. I had to go to the bathroom in one of those 'breaks' and saw and realized he was working on 2 other patients, one of which was waiting for him to come back just like I was!!!! A procedure that should take half an hour ends up taking an extra full hour becaus he treats three different patients at the same time. What irks me the most is he actually lies to you and tells you some kind of bogus excuse like 'you need to rest' or 'this needs to drain' so he can get away to the other patients that are wondering where he's been. I've had 4 root canals, I think I know the full procedure by now. I asked another dentist about this and he laughed and said 'yea, unfortunately some dentists do that, more money'. Another thing, I've never been to a dentist before that didn't carefully look at all my teeth to see what condition they were in. This man only looked at one tooth, fixed it and was gone, didn't even say bye or thanks to me. He did a good job, but obviously didn't care about much else. more

I chose this office based on a review I read and his office being near my work. For an office that was just convenient, it turned out to be the best thing I could do. this office is clean and neat,the staff is so friendly and the dentist is great. He knows how to clena teeth, do fillings, etc.. or any thing you need done quickly and efficiently with almost no pain at all. he is also very patient, explaining everything to you and answering any questions you have. I plan to take my husband here and he is so afraid of dentists and I am confident he will be fine here more

Dr Steen is a really great dentist. My wife and I have been with him since about 1998. He is extremely gentle and thorough, exactly what you want in a dentist! He and his staff are constantly improving their tools and techniques. His staff is friendly and there's hardly ever any trouble with the insurance. I understand they are moving to a new location soon, and that's about the only complaint is that the old location is a little dated. more
