Re: Just paid $130 for 30-minute consultation...




I disagree. All people from all walks of life are
entitled to fair, compassionate dental care.

Sounds like a fair deal.
A lawyer would charge you $300 for an hour of his time so 30min that's
$150 and you paid $130 so you are $20 ahead of the game.

I am not sure if the comprehensive exam is what you got since that
would mean there were a full mouth x-rays taken, study models, oral
cancer screening and a complete record taking for a treatment plan. On
the other hand this was an emergency visit which in my office would
have cost you $150, then 1 or 2 x-rays at $25/xray. Then the vitality
test would be extra.
I think it is just symantics here, if it wasn't a comprehensive exam
it
would have been an emergency exam which usually costs more. Most
likely
the front office girl was trying to keep the costs down for you and
used a cheaper code because they like you.
