UPDATE to your response, I did contact you twice to correct it with your staff, then you came out and wrote the check (clearly your mistake) but wouldn't even look me in the eye or ask any questions which would have been the polite way to handle it... honestly if you had just handed me the check and said my apologies i never would have left this review and thats forgetting the double billing on my last visit for dental work

I updated my original review to reflect my most recent experience.

When I changed changed my insurance plan I called months before my appointment to ask whether I would still be in network. No one ever got back to me, and I did not learn that they no longer accepted my insurance until I arrived for my next visit.

At that point, I was told I could pay out of pocket and that the office would submit the paperwork for me. Based on my experience, I would not recommend doing this. The insurance payment was sent to the office, but instead of refunding me, I was initially told the money would remain as a credit on my account—even though they already knew I would not be returning.

I had to go to the office at least twice to get my money back. When the refund check was finally written, the owner was present but did not acknowledge the situation, apologize for the confusion, or speak to me at all. The check was simply handed to me by the staff.

Afterward, while reviewing my records, I also noticed that I had been double-billed for my last visit.

The staff can be very friendly when scheduling appointments or asking patients to leave reviews, but when the office made mistakes, I experienced delays, poor communication, and a great deal of unnecessary runaround. I cannot say what their intentions were, but the way the insurance payment and refund were handled left me feeling uncomfortable and disappointed. These are the facts of my experience, and others can draw their own conclusions.

I had a wonderful experience here… yes, wonderful. I put off going to the dentist for way too long, so I was nervous, but the doctor and her assistant were both very accommodating, knowledgeable and kind.

I had everything clearly explained to me, both the physical and financial aspects, and the doctor very skillfully performed the procedure. I couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you!

I didn’t find them via a recommendation - I just found the closest available office, but I would definitely recommend them to family and friends. I’ll definitely be back for cleanings and any other procedures I might need!

Just an amazing experience I had at RiteSmile which I want to share .
I called in RiteSmile for my filling etc in an emergency and found Jacque a very pleasant and friendly person to squeeze me in
Dr Kaur’s schedule, which I’m grateful. Everyone from Jacque, Lana, Laura and Dr Kaur took care of me and explained me in the best way which took away the fear I had of going to a dentist. Impressive technology, with high hygiene and perfect ambiance made my visit worthwhile. I’m so grateful to have found this place. I highly recommend them to everyone,I even will take my husband ????
