1/5
The worst experience I've ever had at a dentist. Everything from the staff demeanor, to the sketchy way they handle client payments (literally should never trust any dentist that insists you leave a credit card on file and put down a $100 deposit to hold appointments for new patients) to Dr. Stratmans completely disengaged, lackadaisical care for his patients, it's horrifying. I actually feel like this place is dangerous after my experiences there. I believe Dr. Stratman performed sub-par dentistry on me when he drilled so deep through a cavity that he hit the root and then filled it without placing a brace between the filling and the nerve. When I returned and he confirmed this, he simply shrugged and said "Well just have to cross our fingers and hope the pain goes away, or well just do a root canal."
So I've had a filling rubbing against a bare nerve for weeks, with terrible headaches, taking the maximum safe daily dosage of ibuprofen (but for weeks, so it could be hurting my liver now) just to manage the pain. I am getting second opinions on the quality of his work and may be speaking with a lawyer.
If you have never been here before and are reading these reviews to consider this practice as an option, I cannot stress enough that it's not worth your pain and comfort level to come here. I was in zero pain before Dr. Stratman, and my quality of life since seeing him has been significantly lowered. If you're a returning patient of his, ask him if he can tell you your first name before he puts his drill in your mouth, because it certainly didn't seem like he knew or cared what mine even was.
Furthermore the whole office staff here should be ashamed of themselves for working here. To express your discontent to them while they nod along saying "We totally understand, this happens all the time!" is a mind numbing experience. Not sure if they are not bright enough to get hired at a better practice or if they've just stopped caring about human beings, but it shows.
Lastly, please inform your dental hygienist that it's completely inappropriate to put a patient in a chair and then rattle on for ten minutes about how she thinks the Tinder date she had last night might have "liked men but just doesn't know it yet." LADY... I DONT EVEN KNOW YOU.
Shocked that this practice is still allowed to practice.
Edit: just received a voicemail from Dr. Stratman, conveniently just calling to check on the status of my pain over 30 days after my last visit. I find it interesting that I received a call direct from the dentist the week after leaving this review. Shame on you. Just take ownership of your business from the moment your client comes in, not after they leave a bad review mentioning legal action.
