Review content:
Be very aware of this dentist office! I had a dental emergency and could not find any dentist that would take me...then I found Emergency Dentist in Philadelphia. I arrived, was check in and told it would be $150.00 for an exam, x-rays and any medications I needed. After paying I sat for awhile and at this point though it was all going good.
I was called back to the treatment room and seen a ""dentist"" who did a brief oral exam and took an x-ray. He then told me that I needed a root canal and it could be done today. I asked how much it would cost and he looked it up on the computer and said it would be $1000 but Dr. Parris gives discounts to cash payers. I agreed to the price and was moved to another room. Dr. Parris arrived and started doing the procedure, at that time I was told it would be $1100 and I said I was quoted $1000, he said it usually is $1300 so I'm giving you a discount already. After the very uncomfortable procedure...not from the pain from the procedure, from the messy, unorganized and the doctor took no care on how he moved you around during the procedure. After he finished and told me the root canal was complete he gave me some prescription drugs in unmarked envelopes (not very legal) and then told me to come back in a few days to get the temp filling checked. I then went out to the front desk and was advised it would be $1200 for the root canal. So first it was $1000, then $1100 and now $1200. So I made a payment and left.
I then made contact with a normal dental office and decided to proceed with rest of the treatment there. When the new dentist took x-rays he was shocked. The root canal Dr. Parris did at Emergency Dentist wasn't a root canal at all. The new dentist said the root canal wasn't only not completed I currently had no temp filling in the tooth, just an open canal. He had never seen any dentist do this and even had another dentist take a look and agreed it was not done right.
When I had the procedure at Emergency Dentist with Dr. Parris I was told and asked it the root canal was done and he said YES. My wife was right there when I was told the root canal was done...well it was not only not done but the part that was done was done wrong.
I contacted the Emergency Dentist and spoke to someone who was VERY RUDE at the front desk. He said Dr Parris has been doing root canals for 60 years (maybe part of the problem) and he knows what he is doing. I got no where and at that point ended the call.
Be very aware....the procedure may not be done or done right, even if they tell you so.
Also the cost of the procedure will go up throughout the visit.
Also some of these other ""reviews"" seem like fakes.
