text: my partner was in need of a dentist a little over a week ago on a sunday our normal dentist was closed on the weekend and does not have emergency hours i called our internest office asking if they new of a hour emergency dentist we thought that it might be an abscess tooth they did not know of any and told us to look online for a dentist we got on line and searched for a dentist with hour emergency services the dentist that came up said that they had emergency services i called the number that was listed i called the number listed which turned out to be smiles dental and spoke with the dentist nni explained to him what was going on with her and the incredible pain that she was in i told him that it was more of her lower left jaw that it was swollen and that she was using ice packs but that it was not helping at all he did not ask us anything else about her health he said that he could meet us at his office at pm he said that since he did not have any support staff that i would have to pay cash he said that it would be between to and if that would be a problem i told him that it was not a problem and what ever it took to take care of her problemnnwe got to his office at pm and he arrived at pm we went into the office and he handed me the paperwork that normally gets filled out the paper asked for her history and when we got to the meds she gave him her typed list just seems to make things easier he was looking at her meds while i filled out the paperwork he said after i took a good minutes to fill our all the paperwork he said that he cannot help her that based on her pain meds and him not having any staff to help him that he would want a medical release from her doctor let us see a sunday night at almost pm and he wants a release from her doctor to work on her he did not even look at the tooth or the jaw what a waist of time to drive almost miles t him and miles back to have her still in pain if your telling people you are a hour emergency dentist maybe you should ask more questions before you tell someone to travel to them maybe you should have atleast support staff with you nndont waste your time going to this dentists if you are taking any kind of medication especially if you are in extreme pain because he will not bother with you very upset
