Its been several years since I have been to this dentist and now I have an opportunity to make a review of this dentist.

In july 2001 I went in for a routine check up and to have a cavity filled something that should have taken only 30 minutes turned into a 3 hour nightmare! They xray me and I was told I had 19 cavities. Most were small I asked if I could come back another time to have the rest filled? I was told no they need to be filled now. I was injected with novacaine and soon the dentist started work on me I can still feel the pain. When I complained he told me to shut up! He started working on the other teeth without giving me novacane! I started to scream! He told me to be quiet the other people in the waiting room can hear me! I told him it really hurts! So he jammed my jaw with the shot and proceeded to work on me despite the fact I was still feeling the pain! Dr Anderson kept leaving the room and would have his unprofessional staff come in to work on me some more. They were more interested in watching TV than they were with working on me! When the dentist would return he did not wash his hands and he didn't put on any gloves so he put his dirty hands in my mouth! When he would start on another tooth he did not give me novacaine so again I was screaming! At this point it was 2 hours into my ordeal and I was wishing for it to be over! Another thing he did was he would put the dental tools on my chest instead of a tray some of those things are sharp and can poke me! I did complain about this and the response was beggers cant be choosers. So I guess if you have medicaid you dont deserve to have the best treatment. This dentist does not deserve one star! Since then I have had more problems with my teeth and I am extreamely afraid of dentists! Unless he and his staff has improved since then I would not trust him at all. My advice to anyone reading this is go somewhere else!
