Posted On: 01/21/2020 Idaho Falls Dental Group has a state of the art facility that is very welcoming and clean. In my opinion it is difficult to find an outstanding dentist and we are lucky to have such here in Eastern Idaho. Dr. Joseph Yates is an exceptional dentist to whom I am forever grateful to. The work he has done on my dad is absolutely remarkable. My dad consistently tells family, friends, and even strangers that Dr. Yates is the best dentist he has ever been to. Not only has Dr. Yates performed complicated repairs on my dad's teeth but has done so with minimal if any pain. Due to the exceptional outstanding work Dr. Yates has performed I have moved my family to Idaho Falls Dental Group. I recommend and praise Dr. Yates any chance I get!

Posted On: 12/04/2019 I am both angry and hurt to be treated this way by an office that I previously had such a positive experience with.

Patients, both previous and prospective, should be treated with no less than dignity and respect - assuming they did NOTHING to deserve less.

I will admit that, toward the end of my visit tonight, my behavior wasn’t the best either. But I arrived in a good mood and approached the staff with respect. Only after I was INTERRUPTED and condescended MULTIPLE times by the receptionist did I start crying and used a couple of profanities. It’s hard to think straight when you’ve been mistreated by individuals who you expect to be friendly.

The story -

I am a previous patient of IFDG. I had about $1,800 worth of dental work done last year, all of which was paid out-of-pocket. They sympathized with my not having dental insurance and took the time to help me understand payment options, no-insurance discounts - their “savings card”, and cost estimates/price ranges for certain things. They already had my need for a crown on file, so I don’t feel that I was asking much for wanting to know the range of how much this would cost.

This evening, about 5 PM, I stopped at their location to ask them a few questions. I talked to them about a week ago, but I didn’t manage to get all of the info written down that they’d told me before. I was polite, to begin with, and tried to explain what questions I had. I expected the same, great service that I’d had before.

My questions were simple:
1. If they could give me the prices of their different dental card tiers.

2. If they could tell me the cost of a porcelain crown.

3. If they charge extra for nitrous. Many dentists do, so this was important to me.

The receptionist insisted that I had to make an appointment to have any questions answered at all. I tried to explain that I was just asking more generalized questions, she said, “AGAIN - (voice raised) you need to make an appointment!”

Mind you, I was NOT asking for a diagnoses OR specific price quotes.

Her tone was condescending, she interrupted, and was not listening to what I was actually trying to ask. If she listened, she’d she that she could have made more effort to give me a clearer picture. She treated me like I was an inconvenience, and when I persisted she sent me to sit down and wait while she helped patients (I WAS a patient). After she called me back, I tried to explain to her how her behavior made me feel, and only got more rudeness. She cut me off EVERY time I tried to say something, so absolutely impossible for her to have been listening.

Dental offices are usually kinder to individuals who are needing treatment - it’s an expensive and uncomfortable experience from start to finish and we, as patients, need individuals who are willing to take a little time to make the process a little less ambiguous.

I was happy and ready to make an appointment, but I was interrupted and talked down to to the point of tears. Staff showed zero empathy. K M google Logo Google Review
