WOW -JUST WOW! Called the office today - they accept new patients. My primary insurance is Aetna and they are in network. I have supplemental insurance through another carrier.

I was unable to make an appointment because “we do not accept the other carrier for new patients and therefore we cannot accept your Aetna (in network!) insurance”. I was informed that if I had not told them about my supplemental insurance, I would have been able to get an appointment. Of course no one at the office was able to provide me with anything written about the supposed policy.

And I don’t care if they do not accept my other carrier - the main one is Aetna!!!I called Aetna and they never heard of a member being turned down because the dentist does not take a supplemental insurance and called the office at 2:30 pm. The Aetna representative received a voicemail, saying that the office was closed already (they close at 3pm!) and left a message for a call back. I doubt that neither I nor my insurance will hear from that lousy office again!

I just had a root canal today and the novocaine did not work! They continued to work, occasionally giving me a break but I was in tremendous amounts of pain and could feel EVERYTHING. They showed no concern over my pain, I had tears steaming down the side of my face and eventually was sobbing. The dentist Jeff, just acted annoyed when I’d cry. He tried flushing out my root, (to numb it?) I don’t know what that means, but it had no effect.

I felt like I was being tortured. We are not in the 1800s anymore, nobody deserves to go through a root canal without being numb. I will never come back to Lake Superior Dental.

I had a tooth that was causing pain. LSD got me in the next day! Terani checked it and fixed it that same day. Terani and Shelly were very professional and humorous! Totally took my mind off of the work being done in my mouth! Absolutely no pain from the novacaine shot through the completed filling! Thank you, Terani and Shelly! Certainly will recommend LSD to others!!!

Excellent care and very knowledgeable hygienists and dentist Dr. Anderson. One of the best dental experiences I've had -- quick and efficient and no trouble getting insurance used.
