. Hart Lee is a careless and extremely UNPROFESSIONAL dentist! He does not care about his patients and has no problem letting them know that he doesn't. I informed him of my personal phobia of going to the Dentist. I am and have been terrified for years whenever I had to see the Dentist. During each visit, as he drilled away at my teeth, he complained about "more important things he could be doing right now." Each appointment I was there for over six hours listening to him complain about, "I could be at home with my family right now" or "let's hurry up and get this done. I have to get to Kinkos before they close." I have paid nearly $1,000 ($80 I just learned was just for a two minute "tutorial" session on how to floss and brush my teeth) with this Dentist and the way I treated yesterday baffled and shocked me! After four visits with him, yesterday was my VERY LAST APPOINTMENT! He was suppose to finish the Deep Cleaning procedure on the left side of my mouth as well as a filling. I called and spoke with the receptionist ahead of time informing her that I was running late; HOWEVER, I will still be there for my appointment. Well, when I arrived to the office she informed me that Dr. Lee refused to work on my teeth unless I pay HIS $75 late fee?! I was already paying another $400 (that I did not have) for this appointment and now he was charging me an extra fee because and I quote, "he's upset for having to wait for me. He could've been doing other things." I cried my eyes out because everyone in that office knew my financial situation and how badly I wanted to get this proedure done and over with! I asked to speak with Dr. Lee and he told the receptionist to inform that he will not speak with me or complete the treatment until I paid his PERSONAL late fee! While still crying and asking what am I do about the other side of my mouth that's infected? I was told to find another Dentist. Dr. Hart Lee is rude, unprofessional, inconsiderate and a scam artist! He over charged me, refused to complete his service and dismissed me without any remorse. If you are someone like me, someone who has a fear of the Denist derserves a professional, caring and HONEST Dentist with whom you can trust. Dr. Lee is NOT that person. By the way, during each visit, he kept begging me to give him a "great" review on Yelp as others have given him nothing but "bad" reviews. It made me concerned because I didn't know why he kept baggering me about giving him a "great" review so I've checked Yelp along with many other sites such as: Dr. Oogle; it appears Dr. Lee has a long reputation of this type of behavior. I wish I would've researched him before trusting him with my money as well as my dental health. I am now in the process of finding another Dentist who can finish my procedure. I advise you not to take these reviews lightly and DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Good luck.
