Oasis Dental

I went to Oasis to get up to date with all of my dental needs before my insurance ran out, and spent close to $ 1500 getting lots of work done. Now I’m spending thousands of dollars to fix the problems that they created. I had to have an emergency root canal after they filled one of my teeth right up to the nerve. Needless to say, I’m having this work corrected by a different dentist. My new dentist immediately spotted the shoddy work I had done by Oasis, and I am still in the process of getting it all fixed and have no idea how much the rest of it will cost.
While I was still going to Oasis, I had to come back to have my fillings adjusted three different times because I was experiencing pain when I tried to eat. Each time, I was treated like the pain was all in my head, and Dr. Spieler asked me on my final visit if I had ever heard of Aleve. That was his best suggestion, after leaving me in too much pain to eat comfortably for close to two months.
I was never made to feel like I was a priority while I was a patient at Oasis, nor did I ever feel that I had the staff’s full attention during my appointments. I would absolutely not recommend this office to anyone.

Everyone was pleasant, but very rough with my cleaning and exam. I’m an easy dental patient, being at the dentist does not bother me, but I had to repeatedly ask them to be more gentle and to take care. I came out with the biggest headache and ulcers throughout my mouth. Especially from the X-​Rays — the machinery seemed ancient and the tools they were using (not sure what they were called) completely cut up my mouth. I’m switching to another dentist even though they are in my office building and convenient. Not sure if I just had a bad experience, but I am not taking any chances again.

Only one dentist for more than 30 years. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.

I don’t know why there is so many one star reviews here… I saw Dr. Alldredge everything and everyone there was very nice, made me feel comfortable and I’m chemically sensitive they even turned off the candles the night before and didn’t turn them on that morning knowing I had an appt. They took all new X-​rays as part of being new patient and didn’t charge me for them. I had a cleaning and a check up. I will be back, I found my new dentist! Happy smiles here!

I love Dr. Eric! I was afraid of dentists before I met Dr. Spieler and his staff. I felt relaxed and very well taken care of.

Dr Spieler’s office called to confirm my son’s apt (for the 2^nd time). When I asked for an afternoon apt (which was why they were calling back) they indicated that they would not be able to accommodate me. When I asked why the receptionist put me on hold and said my son was too young to come to the practice. I said mam you called to confirm our apt, so why did you call to confirm. I spoke with the office manager to explain, she was unable to give us an apt after they already said my son could start at age 3. She also said I was welcomed to go to another dentist. They would gladly transfer our records.

I have been going to this practice for over 20 years, and it has been a good experience. Yes, there have been staff changes and mistakes, but not big ones. I find the staff to be friendly, helpful, and professional. I have recommended numerous people over the years, and they have all been pleased.

Warning. Do not become a patient in this practice. Four times I have requested my very expensive complete dental x-​rays from them to be sent to another dentist – twice by phone and twice by fax. Dental records, by law, belong to the patient. Most recently I have sent yet another fax threatening to file in small claims court if they do not release the records to my new dentist. We’ll see whether this works. Meanwhile, friends, do not get embroiled in this practice.

I would give ZERO stars if I could.
Please do not go to this dental office. Dr. Spieler is a con artist. He cares about money, money, money… and nothing else. His attitude is nasty… he’s very snappy. As a victim of domestic violence, it’s hard for me to be around someone like him. I’ve lost so much money dealing with this sleazy practice… and I’m still in extreme pain.
He likes to do fillings and crowns on the same day to save himself time… and to further con people out of their money… well, this one particular filling I had on tooth #13 didn’t take, so he later did root canal… which also didn’t take. I was waiting to hear back about an extraction, but he’s avoiding me.
I’ve since returned to my former dentist, but feel that he should perform the extraction since he’s the one who charged me thousands of dollars for a useless crown… but this man simply doesn’t give a dam*n.
What should be routine dental appointments take up half your day. There’s no consideraton for anyone’s time.
What a pack of con artists!
P. S. Dr. Spieler, if you try to take this down, I’ll post again… Also, it might be a good idea to stop calling adults by their first names… so disrespectful!

I’ve also had some billing issues as other folks have noted, specifically when there wasn’t sufficient research done to determine when I would next be eligible for insurance coverage for some particular work. Also, which member of my family a particular appointment was for has been confused. But I also sense that a real effort is being made to improve the front desk operations of late.
As far as Dr Spieler himself, I have found him to be an excellent Dentist, available off-​hours for consultation when I’ve found it necessary to reach out to him by email or phone, and as far as I can tell, the quality of his work is first rate. He also exudes a sense of caring about his patients that is genuine, and seems to have a love of his work and not just the money he gets from it.

I have been back to Oasis Dental several times since my last review. My previous problem was appropriately resolved and things have been amazing ever since. I have had a great experience with all the staff being friendly and going out of their way to give me a great exprience. In response to my last review when I had a negative experience with the staff member, I will say we have all had bad moments when dealing with other people (especially if you are dealing with people frequently for your job) but she handled the situation appropriately after and that shows a lot of her part.
I look forward to future visits to the office and have actually recommended Dr. Spieler to other family members for their future dental needs.

Twice they have messed up my billing, submitted it wrong, claimed they fixed it and then I get letters from collection agency. Twice they have messed up my appt times, they have even written it on the post card, then slashed it out, put a new time on their and mail it to me. I hate this place. They don’t know what they’re doing
