Stay clear of this man! This was the worst experience with a dentist I ever had. I went there to try & get a tooth pulled because it was infected & chip. After Koshland did my X-Rays, he explained that I have no options but a root canal. When I told him I want my tooth yanked, he basically went off on me & told me it would mess up my gum & cause more infections. He felt it would be 'immoral' (his words) for him to do it. Then he continued to badger me about being able to afford the treatment because of my occupation. I told him you don't know me or know my finances besides it doesn't matter if I can afford it or not...I don't want the treatment. Koshland then said he would understand it if a person with limited finances wanted their tooth yanked, and he would do it. That told me right there that the man is a liar, and no harm would come to me if my tooth was yanked because he was willing to do it for someoone else. Koshland continued to peddle the canal treatment. When I again refused, he said I can go somewhere else. I just got up & walked off. I now understand why he requires people to pay first because he's probably had a lot of potential patients like me leave in anger. I literally had to restrain myself from decking this man who has a tendency to talk down to you
