QUEENS DIGEST

A total RIPOFF OPERATION I went there in late Feb 2022 when I had just gotten my medicare advantage coverage and was given an oral exam. I told them that I wished to have both my upper and lower dentures replaced as is provided by my insurance plan. I explained to the doctor that due to my type of work, I could not be at my job without teeth. I was told that it takes a while for gums to heal etc, a few weeks or months. They explained then, that they would do the required extractions and provide " temporary" dentures which would be paid for by my insurance and I would then be required to pay for the permanant ones - each set costing $625.00 I could not do anything at that time because I would be left toothless when it was not convenient. I revisited the same office on May 6. After they checked their records and found that I'd been there before, I asked again about getting one tooth extracted and asked again about getting the dentures done. This time I was told 1. That I would have to fund the first or "temporary" set and the insurance the permanant ones. 2. When I asked if I could just have the one tooth pulled I was told no because they first needed to make a template for my dentures before pulling the tooth. The dentures would cost $2500 3. This $2500 could of course be financed and the doctor had the application for the financing in her hand oh, so ready to help me out of this awful dilemma!!! My God!! What a ripoff! I left and called Careplus, my insurance provider and when I explained the earlier events the CSR was just as exasperated as I had been. I will most definitely not be going back there - it's plain that they prey upon the standard ignorant and poorly educated people who have medicare and are forced to use a very poorly managed medicare system.
