Scammer!!!! Wants to do every little thing in seperate appointments, went in for cleaning never got a cleaning. Told me id have to make another appointment to get "results" of my routine yearly x rays. Never in my life had i been so disappointed. Stared straight at a black hole on tooth and said it was not a cavity...guess what??? It is indeed a cavity. Got a new dentist asap!

So, question. Do dentist take the hippocratic oath? Did they change it so now you can only do no harm if the procedure is monetarily advantageous for the Doctor? You kick people out of your office if they are on medicare? I really hope your entire office just gets bodied by negative reviews.

Drains insurance but never produces results. I worked at a treatment facility where multiple patients have been referred to Mr. Gunn. I say Mr because nothing suggests Dr. There have been multiple occasions where they have been required to make 3-4 visits in approx 30 days, only to be told that they no longer have Medicaid funds and would have to pay out of pocket for their dentures.

I don't know about anybody's experience at this office, but my cousin got hers done there and I've never seen such beautiful natural looking dentures in my life. I was looking around online, because I need to get my teeth pulled, and a set of dentures. I would go to him in a heart beat, after seeing her teeth, but I noticed on someone's review that he doesn't take people on Medicare. I'm disabled, so I am on medicare and medicaid, and he wouldn't take me more than likely. My advice would be to check it out for yourself before reading reviews from a few other people. I just know that my cousins were utter perfection.

I would never believe they were dentures if she hadn't shown me. I would give anything to have a set of dentures as beautiful as hers was. I don't normally leave reviews for anyone, especially someone I hadn't been to. I just couldn't believe the reviews that were left, and I felt like I should say something. I have a feeling that maybe a few people didn't like something about him, so they left him some bad comments, and there are probably hundreds of good comments that weren't made, because they were happy with their experience, so it gives people the wrong impression of this dentist. It's impossible to make 100% of people happy 100% of the time.
