We've been coming here since 2016 and always like it here. Dr. Eriks has always been great. I'm not sure what the issue is but yesterday we went in for my children's cleaning and exam and they didn't have us on the schedule despite me having an email and card with the appointment on it. So they rescheduled us for today. We live 15 minutes away. We came back and had their cleaning which were super rushed. They didn't even floss my oldest daughter's teeth and we didn't even sete the dentist and got charged for it.I had to call to get it taken off the bill. Very frustrating.

An okay place to go for initial treatment; however, if there are complications or concerns after that you can be subjected to be given the short shrift by the entire practice. An extraction done by Dr Eriks had brought me back into the office at 8am three days later with socket pain that radiated to my ear on the same side of my face. Eriks seemed rather annoyed and quick to say it was "normal" discomfort despite not uncovering the stitches to examine the socket for any foreign objects and or food that could be the source of the pain. The entire experience three days later by staff made me feel like I was wasting their time and in some way malingering. By the way a day later a medical physician diagnosed me with dry socket and told me there was complete loss of the blood clot...turns out their was a legitimate reason for the pain that brought me back to the office! So for the aforementioned reasons I wouldn't recommend him to friends or family based on his lack of empathy and compassion for a patient.

Great experience. My wife and I moved to Frankfort in March and hadn't needed a dentist visit until recently. We both were very happy with the entire staff.
