Barlow and Smisek

Kelsea Zehr

I had been going to Dr.Barlow for over 10 years. My last experience there was awful-- he had absolutely no sympathy for the amount of pain I was in, and when I told him I couldn't eat anything without excruciating pain, he just shrugged his shoulders. At the time, it didn't upset me all that much as I know it's difficult to fit patients in due to covid. I called another local (highly recommended) dentist, explained my situation and they got me in within a week. Upon explaining why I had switched dentists (that my dentist couldn't fit me in until 3 months later), my new dentist was appalled at the lack of care and urgency shown by my previous dentist. I had also taken my daughter there-- the appointment was very rushed, but I trusted he knew what he was doing in examining her teeth. Ive taken her to a new dentist and among other things, she has two cavities that were so bad she needs to get silver caps on two baby teeth. The new dentist said they aren't sure how those cavities were missed in the first place. Very disappointed with the lack of care and poor attention to the condition of my daughter's mouth. It goes without saying that we are so happy to have taken the time to look around and find a new dentist.
