Do NOT go to this Dentist!! Jing Jing Qian lacks professional expertise and is unethical and dishonest. HORIBBLE experience! My NIGHTMARE started through her “treatment”- I developed severe pain (note, I had no pain before I went to see her), which totally destroyed my daily work life, vacations, future travel plans, and the peace of mind. Scroll to the bottom for key takeaways.
One of my tooth had a root canal, and the treatment was fine. The “issue” was that the bottom of my tooth started to darken, so it was not that pretty. She spent time exaggerating how bad looking it was and deemed that some treatment was needed and she could do bridge. Her original remark was “Oh you are a pretty girl, except your such bad looking tooth!”. I was deceived by her over-confidence and went for the second time for treatment. She drilled into my tooth and worked for a while, and suddenly stopped and said she realized that tooth was way more complicated than she originally thought, and said this tooth could not be saved and suggested extraction. I was so shocked, and immediately told her NO!
She refused to take responsibility for the mess, she said: “oh you never know until you drill into the tooth and really start to work on it”. This is the funniest thing I ever heard from a dentist. She took so many X-rays and was confident, and persuaded me into her procedures, and now she said she did not know what she was doing until she drilled the tooth?
What is worse, after her procedure, I started to develop severe pain and fever. So she had to prescribe a bunch of antibiotics for me.
Given the situation, I asked her what my tooth changed from her procedure, so that I developed pain. She LIED in front of my face saying “nothing changed, I filled the tooth already, it was like before”. However, my subsequent two X-rays with different doctors cleared showed not - my situation is worsened – after Qian’s procedures, the tooth became hollow, empty, fragile, and the empty spaces left my tooth vulnerable for pressure changes and bacteria. She merely put a cotton ball into my tooth. This is NOT acceptable and not in line with normal standard of care.
In summary, Dr. Qian’s procedures caused me tremendous damage: Severe pain, fever, and further harm to my body (I need to take anti-biotics and more X-rays for further examination). Disruption of work and life: Dr. Qian did not warn me any potential issues with her treatment
My overall comments: 1.She lacks expertise – she promised me one thing and delivered a bad result. She is incapable and cannot be trusted.
2.She is dishonest. (a) She persuaded me into unnecessary procedures that directly caused me pain (b) after she made a mess, she lied in front of my face saying she put the tooth back to its previous condition, while X-ray comparison clearly showed not.
Dr. Qian refused to take responsibility and attempted to CONCEAL her fault, saying the ultimate cause of my pain is because I had a bad tooth to begin with. I was shocked to hear this from a doctor. So, with Qian’s logic, she always wins – if she treats you well she will get the credit, if she messes up, she will accuse you for having issues/problems to begin with (which are the very reasons we seek doctors’ opinion/treatment).
3.After she made a mess, she did not proactively refer me to a specialist. Usually when an ordinary reasonably prudent general dentist could not fix a problem, he/she would refer to specialists rather than rush to extraction, which is non-reversal. But Qian referred me only AFTER my request. I am not sure Qian’s reluctance is because she wants to make money all herself or she did not want me to receive better treatment. I regret not reading the more than 10 one-star bad reviews on Yelp about her before I go, her bad reviews generally uncover that she is bad doctor, unethical, and dishonest, which I...
Read moreHorrible service.
Originally, my mouth smells good, but after receiving the routine teeth clear, my mouth smells very badly. That is the starting of nightmare. Then, the dentist suggest me to do some filling and told me would let me know the price before the appointment. However, I never received the call from them.
On the appointment date, I came to her office. She said I need to fill 9 teeth. 3 of them are "big teeth". Since "big teeth" filling will not be covered by insurance, she gave me $300 discount. When I received the bill, I found the "big teeth" she referred to are wisdom teeth. Each wisdom tooth filling cost me $259. Typically, dentist will take out the wisdom teeth if they have some problem. Dr. Qian's filling wisdom teeth is really a joke to me. After these filling, some of my teeth be painful off and on. Sometimes, I even cannot use the teeth to eat.
In addition, the dentist estimate my insurance will cover $848, but my insurance paid $961.6 actually. Then, I called them to get the refund of $961.6 - $848 = $113.6. However, she refused and threat will charge me more than I have paid.
If you want to protect your teeth and...
Read moreOk, I have to write another review for this notorious dentist who preys on her patients' trust.
After my personal experience of horror: a teeth cleaning, upgraded to filling cavities, then to root canals (done at another dental office because I knew she was not trustworthy). For details, see my previous detailed review.
The reason for this review is because I just came back from a party last night and was told by my friend about his $7,3000 scam by Dr. Qing. He went to visit her for teeth cleaning and was told that he needed 17 cavities filled. Well, not speaking English, he totally trusted her because she is Chinese. The 17 cavities work cost him $5000 out of pocket; then after the cavity work, one of his teeth really hurt, so he had to pay another $2,300 for a tooth canal.
You know what is amazing about this? The entire process is identical as mine and as my mother-law. Sounds and feels like a routine process at Dr. Qing's office: take advantage of her patients, especially the ones who don't...
