Dr. Michael Sullivan, Gaylord, MI
Very sad experience. Dr. Sullivan performed a root canal on my number 13 molar. The root canals of this tooth are very narrow and extended. I warned the Dr. that I had a traumatic experience with elongated tooth roots which for teeth being extracted both as an adolescent and as a young serviceman in the Navy. Both of those times the dentists had a rough time with the teeth. The procedures lasted over 4 hours for the tooth when I was a child, and two visits over 3 hours each when I was in the Navy. Dr. Sullivan assured me that he was capable, and that his skill was superior. I believed him. After his first attempt at root canals on this tooth, Dr. Sullivan sent me home telling me that there wasn’t enough time that day to finish the procedure. Mind you I’m under the influence of sedation at this time. I told Dr. Sullivan that I would rather have the tooth pulled than go through another 3 hours in the chair. Amazingly I believed him again when he told me the reason he couldn’t finish was because of scheduling. He also said that he wanted to prove to his dental assistants he could finish the job! Being as high as I was on the anesthesia I made the poor judgement call to return. Two days went by with excruciating pain in my upper jaw. I was having to take Tylenol and Advil to relieve the discomfort. I went back to Sullivan’s office, asked AGAIN if it would be better to just extract the tooth, and he said it was his opinion he could save it, and this time he could finish the job and apply the cap. So I strapped on his gas mask and knocked myself stupid only to have the “Doctor” root around, stretch my jaw and break off half of what was left of the tooth. When I came to I distinctly remembered the snap, the dental assistant saying “Oh God!”, and the good Dr. scurrying away into another operatory. What was I told this time? Of course that I’d have to come back since it was the tooth’s fault it was so damaged that it cracked, and now he had to make a new cap with his machine. Stoned on the good Dr.’s laughing gas I told him “that’s okay, mistakes happen”. What an idiot I was. The laughing gas wore off and the Tylenol Advil routine lasted a week. I went back to Beacon Dental Center, this time for the last time, to finally get the remnants of my tooth capped. This time he squirted the glue in to fill the root canals, fixed the cap on the tooth, and away I went. Fast forward 5 years and I’m in the chair of a very competent dentist. The dentist asks if I’m in any pain and I mention the constant pain I’ve had on my left sinus area. I’ve felt this pain for three years. I’m shown the current X-ray of the area and the Dentist tells me that it’s not normal. The capped tooth is great work (machine made, remember) but there is stuff in the canals of Number 13 tooth that extend into the sinus. After visits to an Ear Nose Throat MD, Oral Surgeon and Endodontist specialists, I’m scheduled to have an operation to remove the so-called saved tooth, and resultant fistula created by the extensive overfilling of the Number 13 root canals with guttapurcha, the latex based root canal filling material. Predictably I could sue and win to recover the costs of these procedures, but the good Doctor has closed his practice, and is now enrolled in a school in Detroit. The lawyer I consulted doesn’t see that my case is strong enough to show the pain I’ve been living through since I trusted Dr. Sullivan. Of course there are risks to root canals. I accepted the possibility of a dry socket, and possible infection, but was re-assured by Sullivan that he’s done thousands of these procedures with no bad outcomes. General dentists can perform root canal procedures along with other dental procedures, but often they refer patients needing endodontic treatment to a specialized practice, who works in collaboration with your dentist. An endodontist is a dentist who specializes in saving teeth. Dr. Sullivan should have not touched that tooth after I warned him of the history of my other root issues, and certainly after he saw the roots narrowness and length.

Dr. Michael Kowalczyk, 3960 Patient Care Dr., Lansing, MI, 48911
PATIENTS BEWARE— 10+ YEARS! DRS. NO ETHICS/PERSONAL/PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY INCLUDING STAFF & DRS. BEWARE—10+ YEARS!DRS. NO ETHICS etc., INCLUDING STAFF & DRS. Dr. E. Wheeler & all 3 owning Drs. after 10+ yrs. of care, just dropped me b/C her receptionist of 20 yrs lied when I explained to her the steps I was ordered to follow by my Dr. to protect me from CV-19 exposure b/c MI Law, required me to personally pick up a script at the Dr. office.Receptionist didn't like to deviate normal protocol, thus retaliated against me & lied. No disrespect etc. on my part. The Dr. dropped me & never investigated or fired receptionist for lying. No other reason. This same incident happened twice--again at time of next refill. Unfortunately I didn't report 1st incident at the time.One of their own patients was a witness.I have no recourse but to lose my Dr. I'm 65 years old & the Drs. policy is if a patient is dropped, no other Dr. in the huge practice will see you--blackballed. I know they didn't investigate b/c I had witnesses both issues. She/they never tried to contact me--just mailed a letter. Office Mngr believed.She offered to put me with a Nurse Practitioner. I have complex med. issues & need someone with more extensive knowledge & practice time. Office itself has issues otherwise.Can't recommend. They were 100%UNPROFESSIONAL, INHUMANE, UNETHICAL when most needed. My doctor knows me better than to have believed I would do anything out-of-line or disrespectful. All this & NO DOCTOR during a worldwide Pandemic. Unbelievable from beginning to end of this nightmare. After all these years they didn't give me the common curtsey to ask me what happened, as ‘their patient’. I never owed even $1 to the practice—ever. The 3 Dr.s that own the practice are also aware there is ‘a situation’, but know nothing of the truth. They won't take time to learn the truth or deal with their responsibIlity. They need to be reminded that their first obligation to their patients is to 'Do No Harm...' It never crossed my mind that they would need to be taught to 'CAUSE No Harm'. PATIENTS BEWARE.

Ken Collins, Sullivan, Spokane Valley, WA
Dr. Collins is dishonest. Charges $5000 each for two implants and then charged my insurance another $2000 for each Crown. Was super nice while taking my money ...said we were “friends” but when I pointed out the overcharge he refused to refund my money. RUN!

Michael Zingalis, 10103 W Loop 1604 N San Antonio TX 78254 United States of America, San Antonio, TX
I was very disappointed at 7 to 7 Dental and Orthodontics, usually they are very friendly and knowledgeable, but toast visit my wife had several tooth-fillings replaced and a crown made, bys worn off Dr. Zingalis, after the anesthetist worn-off 2 days later she went back with extremely acute pain, he then filed off some theeth, and recommended to continue taking ibuprophen, the 6fh day the pain spread out to the whole head and more acute. He just filed some more and prescribed stronger pills, next week the same, finally I went with her and he seemed to be trumped saying he couldn't see anything abnormal in the x-rays, after I suggested a root canal he admitted that it could work, as they were getting ready to do the RCT, the finances person dropped in and wanted us to pay for the RTC even when Dr. Zigalis damaged the nerve. The office manager said that we had to pay. I said that it was only fare they sbsorbed the cost since we were not warned about the risk of RCT. I said I would take her elsewhere and they said OK, and let us go. A different Dentist did the RCT and redo the crown. She's feeling better now.

Craig Ardie Smithed, 7201 Hanover Pkwy, Greenbelt, MD, 20770
This Dentist Dr Craig Ardie Smith SABOTAGE my “perfect” teeth for his financial gain... he CAN NOT be Trusted!!! He is a LIAR and a CROOK. He sold me a $500.00 mouth guard because he said I was grinding my teeth and that was a LIE... he just wanted the money; he grinned down two “PERFECTLY” great teeth for nothing just to put a crown on teeth so he can make money off his patients... it’s a DAYUM shame this man can not be Trusted because of MONEY!! Really? Put your patients first and your money will come through referrals. DO NOT Trust this man, you’ll be SORRY if u do

Michael Lim, Baltimore, MD
Dr. Michael Lim, neurosurgeon at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, MD operated on my benign meningioma in January 2012. It was at the base of my brain near the brain stem pressing on my trigeminal nerve resulting in excruciating facial pain. I was allergic to all the successive trials of drugs given and a craniotomy and not cyberknife was necessary to resolve it. I trusted Dr. Lim's expertise and surgical skill for the difficult operation. I am five years out now and now 69 years old. I am an active female who plays pickleball (like tennis) almost daily.

Michael Lim, Baltimore, MD
Dr. Michael Lim operated on a benign meningioma near my brain stem in Jan 2012. I wrote before, but hit the wrong key and it was posted prematurely. I did much research and Dr. Lim answered my myriad of questions before and after surgery. A PHd nurse friend of mine recommended him to me. I am located in Philadelphia, PA and made the decision to go to Baltimore for the surgery. I no longer have electric facial pain. I am a 69 year old female and am active in sports. The operation was 6 hrs in a difficult location at the base of my brain. I could have lost my vision, hearing, balance, and had facial droop and speech problems. I did not. I am deeply grateful to Dr. Lim for saving my life. One other thing--Dr. Lim operates on Tuesdays; the schedule was full for many weeks. He took my case and operated on a 24 hour notice when the operating room was available on a Friday. He had a busy work week, surgeries on his regular operating day, and continued to help me by operating again at the end of a week. There couldn't have been a more positive outcome. Thank you!

Dr Robert LaVille, 95 Mathews Blvd., Lafayette, LA
I am dying because of Dr. LaVille. I saw this man for twelve years. I never missed an apt. for anything. About four years ago I questioned a growth on my check. He dismissed it as me chewing on my cheek in my sleep and offered to make me a set of night guards. I told him that he made me a pair two years ago. Then he said, well maybe your crowns need contouring. On my last visit to his office, I asked him to look at the growth on my cheak. He said,"that is nothing to worry about." One month Later, I was told at MD Anderson Cancer Center, that I had about a year to live and that it would be a hard death. I chose to do life extension Chemo and radiation at the same time to try and save my life. Now I'm in palliative care therapy. Keeping me comfortable until I dye. Many other doctors who treated me after doctor LaVille were shocked at his gross negligence to biopsy such a large tumor. I would not ever recommend this man who practices dentistry. I wouldn't even refer to him as a doctor.

Michael Romberg, MD, 19657 S La Grange Road, Mokena, IL, 60448
Dr. Romberg was my second opinion. The first surgeon wanted to immediately do surgery. I was told by a friend of mine to go see Dr. Romberg and my prayers were answered. He is very knowlegable and he took the time to explain things to me. I knew immediately that this guy would do me right! He made me feel better about making my decision. I was scared at first going into his clinic but his staff will make you feel immediately at home (very friendly Diana, Daniel -- Tina his nurse) and treated me with respect ! I prayed for this doctor and I thank God that this doctor came into my life! Dr. Romberg has helped me get the care I so needed and I am recovering well from surgery. I hope everyone reads this because this doctor does good! He is a humble man and he does his patients good! Shante Mark

Carson Tahoe Pain Management, Dr. Sullivan, Carson City, NV
Dr. Sullivan screwed up the dates on my prescription. I called his office and his script writer acknowledged his error and promised to fix the problem! She failed miserably! She did NOT follow thru on her promise and refused to return my call and I went without my script. This is a clear example of this doctors office support personal not caring about the patient or their needs no mater what the problem! Dr. Sullivan and his personal are unprofessional and don't care about the patient! I know of several others that have experienced this Doctors employees! We all say the same. Do yourself a favor and stay clear of this desister of a medical profession! Find someone else that truly cares about the patient! His staff could care less about you!!

DR Garden is the best dentist I have ever been too. His entire staff are so polite and kind and knowledgeable. I needed 2 serious exstractions removed due to my neglect. DR Garden explained the whole procedure to me in terms that I understood and never felt that I was being scolded or talked down too. His personality is up beat and friendly, and his dental skills and knowledge are superb. I am so happy to have been recommended to DR Garden's practice. D. Calabrese, Maryland

Dr Nick Wang, Germantown, MD
This guy is so pompous. He cancelled my appointment for surgery the morning of the surgery because his wife had a baby. Not once was I told this was a possibility. I think he knew this was coming for 10 months. He has a partner and he could not do it. Why? Good question. It was my spring vacation from teaching so it really angered me that I had planned this and could have gone away. When I asked him to call me because I was so upset. He not only did not call but sent a certified letter that he will no longer treat me. I did not realize he had ever treated me since he canceled the surgery the morning of. Nice guy. NOT ! Do not use him
