My Ellicott City Dentist

Avoid this office at all costs — the most fraudulent medical practice I’ve ever encountered. When we first called, the receptionist clearly said they are a participating provider for our insurance. Later, we found out that only the office is enrolled — not the doctors. That’s completely misleading and feels like a deliberate trick. They also refused to schedule a dental appointment unless I prepaid — asking me to physically bring a $168 check to their office. When I called to confirm, they used my own birthdate to verify their records — meaning anyone could call, say my name, and receive my personal information. So much for patient privacy. During a routine cleaning, they took four X-rays (covered by insurance) but now want $40 just to release those images to me. I also suspect long-term fraud. Even though it was my first time there, their records falsely showed I’d been a patient since 2012. I initially chose this office based on all the glowing 5-star reviews — but look closer. Most reviews are either 5 stars or 1 star, with nothing in between. Many were posted in suspicious batches (e.

g. , “11 months ago,” “2 months ago”) by accounts with only a few total reviews. Most of them are vague and sound copied. How this place is still in business is beyond me. Something is very wrong here. [UPDATE after owner's reply]: Rather than addressing the serious concerns I raised — like insurance misrepresentation, privacy risks, and unusual billing practices — your response attempts to shift the conversation to my alleged behavior. That is a deflection, not accountability. When I arrived at your office, I said: “Hello, I have an appointment at 2:15. ” Your staff said no appointment was found. I asked, “Do I have to go home?” and upon hearing “Yes,” I replied “Thank you” and quietly left. There was no confrontation or accusation of fraud in person. Over the phone, we asked to schedule an appointment without prepayment — a standard expectation for most dental practices. Your staff instead insisted I bring a check or cash in advance, in person.

In response, I suggested two options: that someone from your office could collect the check, or that I could drop it off after work — around 9 p. m. That was clearly about delivering payment, not demanding a 9 p. m. appointment. Your team then abruptly ended the call. At no point did I berate, coerce, or threaten your staff. These claims are inaccurate and appear to be an attempt to discredit a legitimate complaint. Instead of taking responsibility or clarifying your policies, you’ve chosen to attack me personally. That raises even more concerns about how your office operates and treats patients who ask reasonable questions.
