I went to his office when I was 23 looking to get braces. Before he actually put braces on me he made me spend thousands and a year on a lot of cavity fillings which i might not have needed. He made me remove 8 teeth and then he told me i would need implants to make my teeth look natural which i opted not to because it didn't make sense since he removed so many teeth. when he wanted to take my braces out an actual specialist told me i still needed more time. I got very upset because because he charged me almost $8000 on braces alone, about $4000 on removing teeth, and a few more thousands on fillings, cleanings, x rays, appointments and other stuff and my teeth weren't nice yet. he wouldn't reimburse me for the retainers that I didn't get after he finally took the braces out. my teeth moved again and they are all screwed up now. basically, i feel that i was taken advantage of in a really horrible way because i knew nothing and i trusted him. he took all my savings money and my teeth ended up worse than before, plus i didn't get everything i paid for like the retainer. i got a really bad vibe from him and his staff being so rude and taking advantage of a naïve young girl who knew nothing who trusted she was in the right hands. he just wanted to take my money. he always made me feel bad and would hurt me and was so rude. i also got a vibe that he was racist and discriminatory and just out to take innocent naïve girls savings money promising good results but turned out to be a nightmare.
