I read these comments and wonder who they are referring to. I have gotten nothing but quality care and I have been treated with respect each time I have been there. I don't have insurance and they have always done everything to keep costs down. I love the staff and appreciate the fact that I am not paying for a huge salt water aquarium for the office as well as other frivolous expenditures. Dr. Cornella is the best.

I had to have my tooth under a cap pulled out. There wasn't much of the tooth left, They gave me the choice of nitrous gas or I could of been knocked out. I payed for the gas but I'm sure glad I did! Because he was able to pull it right out. NO stitches, just a piece of gauze and I was headed home! I should of done it without gas because it took him a minute to get it out! He knows how to do shots that don't HURT! HE is my kind of Oral Surgeon. The girls were VERY FRIENDLEY TOO!! So NOW..... Back to see him for bridge work! I have to almost drive 3hours

My son scheduled wisdom teeth extractions and paid his 20% required prior to scheduling. He ended up getting $430 bill because insurance did not cover the sedation. When trying to discuss this with the billing dept, they were rude and condescending. When I called to discuss it, they hung up on me. It was very disappointing to entrust your care to a dental office only for them to not care whether everything would be covered. They are very rude!

This review mainly has to do with the staff which was HORRIBLE! They are rude and could careless about you...pretty much just see you as a check or another blog walking in the office. Refusing to submit charges to insuirance after I called and found out they are covered, they stated they were not and Id still have to pay. Not to mention they make you pay before you make an appointment for surgery and that's before they even talk to the insurance company as well! Don't waste your time here you will hate it there are other offices in Springfield way better and will do all the work for you and will treat you with respect!
