Dentist capped the wrong tooth for my wife and Angie’s list did not back us up and won't let me give him a “F rating".
New to the area we picked a dentist off Angie's List with an A rating. My wife wanted crowns on teeth 22 and 29 She also had a loose crown on 31, that needed to be re-cemented. We both had initial consults in July 2012.
On August 28, 2013, the dentist prepared number 22 for crown and then told his assistant to have my wife chew on some sticky substance to take the loose crown off. (a month, or so later, a crown on 30 came off too, this sticky stuff loosened it too…our new dentist re-cemented that one--cost the insurance companies about $140.00 more). Then his assistant then took impression for the new crown on 22.
Apparently, there was a miss-communication between Dr. Black, the dentist, and his assistant. We later discovered, that night, she had made two temp crowns for 22 and 31 and sent my wife on her way and threw the good crown on 31 away.
When we got home that night and the Lancing wore off, .the crown on 31 broke in half and came off. It was then that my wife realized what happened.
On the return visit, She confronted the dentist...he got all nervous...probably first he realized what happened, and grabbed his assistant, and without an answering my wife he left the treatment room with his assistant.
When he returned they insisted they were supposed to do 22 and 31 in the first place. even claimed she did not understand because she speaks with an Asian accent, She has been here over 30 years, and was a “Certified and Licensed Nurse’s Assistant” prior to retirement.
Moreover, I met Dr. Black first, for my consult, the same day, I told him too, we put 31 on with temp cement and it needed to be re-cemented with permanent cement.
Moreover, the very same day, after the initial consults, his assistant met with us and explained the treatment plan and course of action for both of us. She said they couldn't do both 22 and 29 in the same visit, as they were on opposite sides of the mouth, it was against their policy to numb the whole jaw at once. It would require two visits to prep them. As for me, they needed to submit a treatment plan to the insurance companies first, as I needed a six unit bridge replaced. To bad, they didn’t have to do that for my wife.
But now look…they said that was the plan all along to prep both 22 and 31 in the same visit…refusing to admit their error.
I asked to see Dr. Black, the day they put the crowns on 22 and 31 and after he refused to admit his error. The assistant came back out, to the waiting error and said he was to busy with patients to meet, with me. I said have him call me then. After a week, I called him, and the staff transferred me to voice mail, I left a message, asking him to call me again. No reply, now it is January 2013.
My wife and I prepared a 3 page, type written letter, explaining everything to all, insurance plans, Angie’s List, and Bank of America, Visa.
We asked BofA, to stop the $598.00 payment. We had make up front as Dr. Black‘s staff said it was their policy to only bill one insurance, and we would have to bill the second one, after the first one paid them. But Dr. Black‘s office ended up billing them both in the end too.
While BofA’s representative, said it never got answer from Dr. Black...about 2 months later, we received a letter from BofA, it said without another dentist’s second opinion, even though it never got a reply from Dr. Black, it’s “FIA” group said it had to pay .him anyway.
Our two Dental plans, GEHA High Option and Delta Dental Premiere, were sent letters by us and asked to investigate and withhold payment. They both paid him, the left hand did not know what the right was doing.
Angie's List got a letter too. According to Angie’s list representative, Noel, it had asked d Dr. Black for his side twice, and never got a response, to date.
\
Last week, I received a check, dated January 14, 2013, from Dr. Black's billing office for $1006.00, “Insurance/Patient Refund.”
The insurance companies overpaid him. The caps were $1,150 each, per bills to the insurance companies…they each paid more than half, or $2708.00. So we got our Visa $598 back, plus the $408.00 over paid by the insurance companies.
Angie’s List’s representative, Noel, said this was a settlement and took Dr. Black out of the penalty box and won’t let me give him and F.
I explained to Noel in three emails, that his was money, we would have gotten back, once the insurance companies paid for the caps. It was earnest money, my wife was made to pay up front. Not a settlement. I told him the fact remains, Dr. Black capped the wrong tooth, threw the good one way, and 29 now needs to be capped by our new dentist.
Meanwhile, Dr. Black’s bills to the insurance companies, state he found decay under 31 in preparing for a crown too. He never touched that tooth, except to cement the new crown on, after the fact.
I got all our x-rays back from Dr. Black’s office the same day, he delivered the crowns and refused to talk to me. I also asked for the model of the impressions, so I could take it back to Maryland for comparison. The assistant said she was told not to give them to us.
In December, I had our new dentist look at the pre treatment x-ray of 31, that Dr. Black took, with the old crown in place, with the temp cement, we got at CVS. The new dentist said it looked good, margins were good and no sign of decay that he could see.
Angie's List insist that it was a settlement and refuses to let me give him a F rating and has removed him from the penalty box.
I asked this Noel, how much do these contractors pay you to get on the list, obviously you are more concerned about protecting the contractors, then your subscribers.
This is great disservice-service to anyone who might choose this Dentist from your list in the future.
I even asked to speak to Angie, if there is one. Twice I asked how much does Dr. Black pay to be on the list. Noel never answered that question.
My wife got nothing for pain and suffering or the ordeal.
Moreover, I have since learned the dental assistant, by law or regulation, should not have been permitted to remove the crown on the 31 in the first place.
I asked Noel to cancel my subscription and refund my money…waiting for answer on that one.
I have filed for $25.00, with ConsumerComplaints.Com, posted to Facebook and Twitter and next step will be with Medical Review Board of Florida, pending Dr. Black’s reply Consumercompliants.com.
While I also contacted Morgan and Morgan, it’s lawyer, who is also a DDS ,called to advise me you can not sue for pain and suffering in Florida, the laws here protect the Dentist, not the patient. So there is no incentive for them to get involved.

Lindsay Honda, 5805 Scarborough Blvd, Columbus, OH 43232
I shopped for and purchased a used car from Lindsay Honda and have never dealt with so much incompetence in my life. From the beginning, they had my address wrong and even though I told them about it repeatedly, they still did not get it right until it was time for me to pick up the temporary title ... when I told them the document they wanted to give me was useless as it was incorrect.
Additionally, they sent me home from the dealership with only one key ... stating that the previous owner still had not given them the other two keys. Ten days later, I was finally able to get one other key from them but the valet key was never given to me, so now I'm driving around in a car that the previous owner still has a key to and apparently has no intent to give up. What's with that?
Four days prior to the 30-day tag expiring, I called the dealership to ask when I would be receiving the temporary title needed for me to transfer my tags. They informed me that the previous owner still had not turned it over to them!
I will never step foot on their lot again ... will take my car to any other Honda dealership rather than deal with such stupidity and incompetence again. I will have my vehicle serviced elsewhere and would reccommend that anyone interested in purchasing a Honda make a wide circle around this place.

Angie's list keeps billing me. I called them and they said they would notify me before they billed me and did not.
I contacted Pay Pal who could not reverse the charges. Pay Pay said in future they will not let the billing go through. That will be year 2014. We will see.
BUYER BEWARE OF ANGIE's LIST.
They are not still in business because they have something good to offer, but because they
Just keep billing people without their permission. They seem to be Crooks.
