I've never been treated in such a rude, disrespectful and despicable manner than what I experienced at Dr. Lernor's office last week.
After having a front tooth restoration procedure and going home and looking at the tooth more closely in the mirror, I could see the filling color didn't match the tooth color and didn't look good. So I made another appointment the next morning to see Dr. Lernor to get his opinion and seek his advice on whether something could be done to improve it.
What happened next was simply unbelievable and shocking. After being seated by the staff, a visibly upset, impatient, and clearly frustrated Dr. Lernor without even looking at the tooth immediately told me in a loud and angry tone that I have "unrealistic expectations in my dental care and that I should see another dentist in the future", and that he will redo it for free one more time, but that would be it and after that I should go to another dentist. I hadn't even asked for a free procedure or a refund, in fact indicating to the staff earlier that I would want to pay for any procedures he might recommend. He was unwilling to even listen to any of my questions, again repeating that I should see another dentist after this. I refused to have the tooth further treated.
It's simply hard to believe that a doctor would be so arrogant and treat their patient in such a callous, angry and uncaring manner, and refuse to even answer their patient's questions.
In 35 years of dentist visits, no dentist or physician for that matter has ever spoken to me with such disrespect, and told me to go elsewhere, and this simply for seeking his advice on a procedure he himself had earlier incorrectly performed. He doesn't even have the decency of apologizing for not performing the procedure correctly and permanently damaging a perfectly looking front tooth and instead he gets rude and angry, adding insult to injury, and tells you to get out of his office. He is a disgrace to the dental profession and should be ashamed of himself. He clearly has no concern for his patients.
The tooth has now been repaired as best as possible by a prosthodontist at a cost of almost $1000, and it looks much better and he agrees with me that restoration was poorly done, and that I did not have unrealistic expectations at all, specially for a front tooth. I wish there was a way to post before/after photos here on Yelp so other people could see for themselves.
