Schmidt Pediatric Dentistry

So proud of my girl today, but even more grateful for Schmidt Pediatric Dentistry. My daughter had her tonsils removed just a few weeks before her very first dental appointment, and she was absolutely terrified of going to the dentist. We tried three different dental offices, and we’re finally sticking with Schmidt—for one big reason. After just three visits, she’s like a completely different kid. She’s lying back calmly, acting like such a big girl—even though she’s not even 4 years old yet! What used to be a stressful experience with me holding her while she cried has turned into her confidently lying on the chair all by herself. The dental assistant we had today was incredible. She walked my daughter through every step, showed her the tools and explained how they work, and did everyth

I had an appointment for my kiddo set up. They called the day before and said something was wrong with my insurance and that I would need to fix it and then reschedule. I got it fixed, called back to reschedule and they told me that I had canceled too many times and they wouldn't see me again. I had NEVER canceled or missed. Now, we travel almost 2 hours away to the closest dentist. If you had competition, you wouldn't be here...

I really wanted to give this place a good review, because the dental work is solid and they have stuff to entertain children as they should, plus there is a treasure chest the children get to choose from at the completion of an appointment. but, big but, the receptionists are rude. They are inflexible, and lack understanding. In fact, in the middle of a snow storm, i had to make it to my appointment or my child who has already waited 3 months to be seen, would have to wait another 2 months. I know they have more spots open than they admit to, because they can literally squeeze you in if you say its an emergency. And an average appointment takes no more than 15 minutes. They are ridiculous and do not treat people very well. They use the fact that they are of a rare branch of dentistry like

My husband was nice enough to drive my son over an hour to his appt and was unsure of the location. Upon arrival, he was 8 minutes late and the Receptionist refused my son his appointment. My son was then rescheduled and upon finding a cavity, unfortunately, the office that wouldn't allow us 8 minutes of flexibility has a 5 month wait to fix his cavity. However, I noticed a bill in the mail a matter of days later with a 20 day window for payment. It's clear this office no longer needs patients.

My kids LOVE going to the dentist to see Dr. Brea and her staff! The staff are all well trained in working with kids and all of them have hearts of gold. I have described Dr. Brea to others as an 'angel' and stand by that! The office is beautiful and up to date. Very kid friendly, like you would hope a Pediatric Dentistry office would be. Always easy to work with! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
