Patient Satisfaction and Experience
The reviews highlight a mixed experience at Dr. Merendino's office. While some patients were extremely satisfied and had positive experiences, others had negative and disappointing experiences.
Notable Comments
Some patients raved about the friendly and caring staff, with one patient mentioning that the lady who cleaned their teeth was "absolutely the nicest person I've ever met in a Dentist office". Another patient appreciated that the dentist tailored treatment to their individual needs, rather than just trying to maximize profit. Patients also praised the office's ability to accommodate emergencies and provide top-notch care.
On the other hand, one patient had a particularly negative experience. They reported severe pain and discomfort after a filling, and were told to seek care elsewhere because they were pregnant.
Concerns and Complaints
One patient had a mixed experience, initially being happy with the treatment but then experiencing severe pain and discomfort after the visit. Another patient reported feeling rushed during their visit and had to wait an extended period for treatment.
