Patient review from dental directory

"Not actually free. Was given completely false information about what they charge you. Was lied to and told it was a 35 dollar fee only, then immediately get a 300 dollar bill from them on MyChart. Also had no procedures or cleaning done just was referred to go somewhere else."
