Truthfully, I do NOT recommend Dr. Schultz. I gave this review 2 stars is because the office staff was very patient and friendly but most importantly I wanted this review to be posted on the front page!
I came here because I read great reviews. Unfortunately I did not read the "unrecommended reviews" (Those are located on the bottom of every page) until after my visit. Dr. Schultz recommended $2800 of work. He said my four-year-old needed to have his two front teeth pulled because there was an extra tooth growing out of his gums. He said my 4 year old son needed 6 crowns. He also needed anesthesia to put him under for the hour and a half surgery. I was horrified. I was so upset I started to cry. He told me to use the knowledge as "empowerment" so I do not make the same mistake with my other child. He also stated that I brushed one of my child's teeth better than the others. There were a few other passive aggressive things he stated to me but I would like to get to the point. I feel like he did not care about my sons future. Dr Shultz wanted to pull out his two front teeth to surgically remove the extra tooth. That means he would have no two front teeth until my son turned seven. Lucky for me they had a cancellation last Monday and they could get me in to do $2800 of work.
Honestly, it was not about the money, it was about the fact they had no other options. He said he didn't even know if he could save some of my sons molars. My son would've been toothless with a mouthful of metal!!!
Luckily, I made an appointment for a second opinion at East Valley pediatric dentistry in Gilbert. There I had an amazing experience and they are not going to pull out his two front teeth until he's about six years old. He will have a few crowns but not six and a few cavities filled.
Update: Dr. Shultz called and apologized to me however I have decided to go with a different dentist
