Customer Reviews
I rarely write a negative review, however, we had such a horrible experience with this office that I feel the need to warn other families. We took our son to this office for a regular cleaning. The dental hygienist was not kid friendly whatsoever. She and the dentist were both in a hurry the entire time so we felt very rushed. The dentist flagged a few issues and claimed that putting my child under full sedation at a surgical center was the only answer. When I asked her to explain the problem in further detail and what the risks of full sedation are for a young child, she said “just trust me.” We felt so uncomfortable that we got a second opinion from another pediatric dentist office (shout out to Valley View in Washington PA). It was there that we realized that some of their X-rays wer
Scheduled four kids for cleanings at the 11:45 time that they insisted upon giving me 6 months ago. Was running late, and they called and said I had 5 minutes to walk in the door or they wouldn’t see my kids. We were there in 6 minutes and they wouldn’t see them. They expect them to miss another day of school. The doctor is great, but we can’t miss school multiple dates because they don’t have evening or weekend availability. Several years ago they also made my appointment for the wrong day and when I showed up, they said it was my mistake. I have never had these issues with orthodontist, doctor, or my own dentist.
Every worker I have encountered there so far is absolutely amazing! Made my son feel so comfortable with having to have teeth pulled and now he is not afraid to go back to have the other teeth pulled he has to have done!! I recommend anybody looking for a pediatric dentist to definitely give them a call!! I could not be happier!
I will never take my kids anywhere else. Dr. Uselton is hands down the best pediatric dentist there is , she's so patient and kind even when my kids are being a little difficult because they don't enjoy the dentist. The front office staff is really nice as well and all the hygienists are super sweet to my kids. They are the best office :)
It seems reviews have gone down hill as time as gone by. Maybe this should have been a red flag. My child was seen at this office for 1.5 years, give or take. Our last appointment, things really took a turn. The staff seemed frazzled and I heard tid bits of conversation that seemed there was tension. The older dental hygienist at the McLaughlin location, was seeing my child. This is the second time she has worked with my child. I was not a fan the first time as her demeanor did not seem kid friendly (tone, easily frustrated, off comments to my child.) I chalked that one up to a bad day. The latest appointment, had me frustrated. She spoke to my child with a very frustrated tone. He asked her to not have the gloves near his lips but instead of talking through the situation, she told
