Simply put, GO TO THE OREGON BOARD OF DENTISTRY and see the DISCIPLINARY ACTION on 23 Allegations to include ""making an untrue statement to the Board"". AVOID ""The detailed complete workups"" that are suppose to include an 1 and 1/2 evaluation with this Dentist. All the pictures, molds, evaluations, and ""Special tendon and joint workups"" that is suppose to do and YOU DO NOT GET is a farce. AND I FELL FOR IT 2 TIMES. NEVER had an appointment with the Dentist the first time. Just a 22 minute over the front counter of general stuff the Dr. will look at with the evaluation FROM THE DR's Husband who is the office manager. Never got the 3rd one as well as the OFFICE CANCELLED my appts 3X on me, saying they the 1) Dr. had not started my evaluation, 2) She has not coordinated therapy yet for proper evaluation with my orthodontists. Was promised a 3rd time with an appt and they wanted to reschedule that saying ""The Dr will work all weekend long while she watches her children"" (Husband was in Lebanon, middle east"". After this, we canceled the VISA payment as we were getting the run around AGAIN. Now they are trying to obtain payment on something they only produced AFTER I transfered my care to a different Dr's. office. LOOK UP THE BOARD ACTIONS AGAINST THIS DENTIST OVER A GOOD PERIOD OF TIME. 22 Unacceptable Patient Care and 1 Untrue statement to the Board. CONTACT THE BOARD at 971-673-3200 and ask for Inspector Paul if you feel you have had bad treatment, inappropriate billing, or simply paid for treatment that you never received in a timely fashion. Watch how often they put Arestin disks in your mouth, how often they want you to do bitewings and full mouth xrays, and MAKE SURE YOU WATCH HOW THEY BILL YOUR INSURANCE (regular cleaning versus periodontal cleaning versus actual scaling/root planing). She was written up for violations from 2003-2005 and Untruthful Statement to Board on 2005-2007 License Renewal. Bad situation when the office manager is the Dentists' husband and he is the one that promotes the ""Specialized tendon/joint manipulation case studies"". He should not be the one given you medical information/opinions and also showing other patient's pictures on the computer showing what they can do for you.
