Ancell Family Dentistry, Dr. Brian W. Ancell DDS

I would never recommend anyone to this dentist. this is the issue we had with him. My husband and I were treated for what was stated as '5 cavities' - (my husband 4 cavities). after reading the review before me, I can only wonder if that was the truth as we never sought a second opinion. we had a past due amount owed to the dentist, we got a first bill and the second bill that asked us to pay amount due by the 4/11/13 and on that same day, we got served with court papers for refusing to pay the amount owed. we called the office to see it we could settle the amount using a credit card and they refused stating the they needed full amount in cash and plus he wanted us to pay his court fees and other expenses which totaled over 900 dollars. the original fee owed was 748 dollars. anyway to make the long story short we went ahead and continued with the court case. when we went to court he acted like he had not refused to take payment from the credit card coz the credit card company would not allow him to charge for his 'other additional cost' - court fees etc. Yet in the beginning all he wanted to settle was for 900.00 cash up front. anyway we feel that this dentist treated us like criminals and served us with court paper within 2 months of receiving his service. I understand that he had a right to be payed for the services rendered but the way in which this matter was handled was way to harsh for some of us that are harmless and have good conscience when dealing with people. We are definatley never going back to this dentist and I would seek a second opinion if they tell you you have 5 cavities when in real sense you may have one or two. Shop for dentist wisely and use referrals from other patients. Experience is the best teacher- in our case

Be careful he's racist.
