Front Desk Issues
The front desk service at this dental office has been criticized for its unprofessionalism and lack of attention to detail. A customer reported that the front desk, specifically Natalie, failed to follow up with the responsible party to collect payments and verify insurance coverage, leading to confusion and frustration on the day of the appointment.
Poor Communication
The customer also complained about the poor communication from Natalie, who failed to reach out to her despite being aware of the appointment schedule and the customer's concerns. When the customer asked why she wasn't informed earlier, Natalie responded unprofessionally, saying that the customer needed to follow up with her and implying that the customer was not the only new patient she had.
Unprofessional Behavior
The customer felt disrespected and uncared for, especially since Natalie was dealing with personal issues, such as a newborn child, at the office. The customer felt that Natalie's unprofessional behavior and lack of empathy led to a wasted day and missed school for her daughter.
Positive Experiences
On the other hand, some customers have reported positive experiences with the orthodontist, Dr. Busquets, and the rest of the staff. They have praised the orthodontist's knowledge, kindness, and passion for his work. The staff has also been described as friendly and helpful.
Overall Experience
The overall experience at this dental office seems to be heavily influenced by the front desk service. While some customers have had positive experiences with the orthodontist and staff, others have been disappointed by the unprofessionalism and poor communication from the front desk.
