I love this dentist. Dr. Machowski and his wife, and staff are absolutely great. They explain in detail, they are patient and kind. We would recommend them to friends and family.

I called to try to get in to see a dentist because I lost a filling so I called Grand Strand Dentistry and they took me the same day to see Walter J Machowski. When I got there he looked at the tooth and said I had never had the tooth filled, but I had, then he took xrays and said the tooth was a little decayed that he could remove the decay and fill the tooth. The tooth was very sensitive so I needed it fixed right then. Afterward I went to the desk to pay and she says 489. 00.

lost for words I paid, when I got home they charged me for one x-ray, and two fillings why would he fill two teeth when I only needed one? Why would you SAY you filled two teeth without even asking for my permission before you do it? Or how do you know I had the funds to pay that bill. Im a single woman that's works hard just to pay her bills and eat. I do NOT recommend this dentistry its aweful you cannot even trust a dentist. So sad! I will be taking further action, I want proof you did what you say you did.

Just talk to them on the phone, they referred by dentaquest, but don't even want to see us! Read feedback after spoke to them, and feel very comfortable to let others know about this.

The worst dentist office i have ever been to. I wouldn't evwn rate it a 1 star. The male Dr. Machoski is beyond rude. Told me things about my kids teeth that are not true and have never been true.

Then his hygienist is just as bad as him. I mentioned to the lady in recipiention how rude Machowski was this year and last year I seen him. The hygienist with him over heard and told me he was taking my kids future appointments off the schedule and to fibd a different dentist. I should of looked up reviews and never went to that office.
