I chose this dentist from the Dominion Dental provider list, and couldn't have been more appalled. First, the location is a converted apartment. The procedure rooms, are just little corners sectioned out and separated by office type cubicles. I could totally hear the work being done and conversations being had with other patients. I would wait typically 30 minutes or more before the receptionist was even ready to check me in, and she was never terribly friendly. They only keep so many appts available for Dominion patients, and you're not able to make an appointment 6mo out for your next visit. They just tell you to call about 2mo in advance, which of course I never remember to do.
Worst of all though was the dentist himself. Dr. Kern came in in his everyday clothes, no lab coat, no smock. That meant he was leaning over me in his button down shirt, which had the top three buttons unbuttoned and chest hair spilling out. He talked about how he is only doing dentistry now because of his commitment to low-cost dentistry and about how awful my insurance was and how no other dentists accepted them any more because their agreed to prices were so low. All in all, he came across very snake-oil salesman like.
I'm glad we switched
