STAY AWAY FROM THIS DENTIST. I have been recently looking for a family dentist, and have asked around. I had a co-worker who used to go to Caldwell, Bills & Petrilli DDS until recently. This is how she explained what happened: When she first started bringing her family to this Dentist, things seemed OK. On her third visit she was walking in when a lady was rushing out all flustered, they passed at the doorway entrance and the lady passed a comment to her to leave this Dentist before they screw you over too. It took 2 more visits to complete her work. A few months passed and her son who is 17 had terrible aches in his tooth and gums and she brought him into see Dr. Petrilli after an examination he told her what the issue was and said he time to do the work now if she wanted. She went to the waiting room area when her son stayed behind to get the work he needed to help with his pain. A long period of time went by and she was not given any updates, she watched patients come and go and still she waited for her son, she got up and walked past the desk torwards the room her son was in. That is when she heard Dr. Petrilli snap at her son and tell him to shut up and stop whining like a 2 year old, he went on to rant that if he took better care of his teeth he wouldn't be in this situation and this should teach him to take better care and act like an adult. Obviously she was mortified to hear the Dentist yell and rudely snap at her son while he was in pain, he thought back to that lady at the doorway and the others leaving upset. She immediately took her son and left without a word to the dentist or his staff. She went to another area dentist and is very happy. I am taking her advice and staying away from Dr. Petrilli and his practice. The work done was supposedly ok, but if you care about how your family and children are treated I suggest looking elsewhere.
Cons: Poor attitude torwards patients, very arrogant in nature
