I have been seeing Dr. Tam for almost 20 years. He and his wife Betty are amazing. Because of him believe it or not I actually enjoy going to the dentist, and I travel 60Km each way because I want to see him and no one else.

I just went for a routine cleaning, and they billed $456 to my insurance company!!! When I questioned the charges, they reversed the claim to $256 and said… “ Ok I have reversed it. Therefore you are not being charged any exam at all. ” So exam was $200??!!! UPDATE: I filed a complaint through RCDSO and the dentist responded to them (not me). According to him, I complained about a chip on my front tooth, but he advised me filling is an unnecessary procedure. So this procedure wasn't done, but his wife mistakenly charged to my insurance company.

1. Betty said “Ok I have reversed it. Therefore you are not being charged any exam at all. ” when I initially contacted. So she was lying before? 2.

I had no idea one of my teeth was uneven until he showed me the picture as I was about to leave the room after the cleaning. He was the one who brought up the filling, and I was the one asking if it's necessary as I really couldn't tell the difference. It's very concerning that they would pull an insurance fraud and then just say it was a mistake when they get caught. Shame on you, Muen and Betty!!
