I took my daughter for a filling 2 months ago. She was really excited about it until the dentist hurt & then she refused to go back. When I asked for my K750 back today the following conversation occurred. It was not the first time I tried to get my money back : [06/01, 1:04 PM] Elite Dental: Your balance 250 kwacha [06/01, 1:05 PM] Elite Dental: Come and get [06/01, 1:05 PM] Aretha: Why so little? You only cleaned the inside of the tooth. No work was done. Help me understand. [06/01, 1:06 PM] Aretha: Where did the rest of the money go? [06/01, 1:06 PM] Elite Dental: For Root canal treatment of course [06/01, 1:07 PM] Aretha: I'll come on Monday. Was that 20 minutes of treatment K500? That seems a bit much? [06/01, 1:09 PM] Elite Dental: Your child took our time almost 3 hrs [06/01, 1:10 PM] Aretha: She only did it because she was scared. You can't blame her for that. That seems unfair. [06/01, 1:10 PM] Aretha: You hurt her, that's why she was scared. It's not her fault. [06/01, 1:12 PM] Aretha: She was quite happy with you doing the work until you hurt her. That's why she hasn't been back to finish the work. [06/01, 1:13 PM] Elite Dental: As a parent, it is your duty to ensure that your child is ready for any form of clinical and medical treatment. As Health Professionals, we try to help in whatever way possible. [06/01, 1:14 PM] Elite Dental: In such cases we blame the parents and not the children. [06/01, 1:15 PM] Aretha: As a medical professional you are not supposed to hurt children. It's your job to be gentle. It's my job to keep her calm. Your were not gentle. [06/01, 1:16 PM] Aretha: She was very excited to go to the dentist. [06/01, 1:16 PM] Elite Dental: Please note that most children fear dentists. But your child was scared and not cooperating from the beginning because you could not handle her properly. [06/01, 1:17 PM] Elite Dental: As a parent. [06/01, 1:19 PM] Aretha: I'll will come & get my...

But then he said it will cost 1200 , I was shocked coz my teeth were not even that bad it’s just needed normal cleaning. Because it was only 6 months ago I went to clean it. So I asked why the price is keep changing from phone to reception to doctor . Anyways I decided to walk out and doctor was asking the receptionist how much I was told so lady said 800 to 1000 but doctor said no it’s 1200. I just adviced them to keep one price , so while I was leaving they asked me to pay consultation fee 🤣, which didn’t even happened .well doctor didn’t even touched me and they wanted consultation fee. After that they were behaving rude and told me to leave premises , I would...
Read moreHorrible experience!! The last time I visited this place last year, I had a really good dentist who met my needs. I decided to go there this year for teeth filling and the dentist that attended to me had bad customer service, he seemed in a hurry when I was clearly the first client I had. He scratched my other teeth, they are rough and the filling clearly was not done properly because I have been feeling the sharpness in the edges of my teeth that were filled, which you can imagine is very uncomfortable. This was so unprofessional and after this he did not even hand me a paper towel to clean my face due to his roughness . I had a lot of white substance on my face which has never happened before.. I wouldn’t go to this place so disappointing 😟 when teeth are...
