Richard Beck, DMD, PC

My daughter just had her wisdom teeth extracted by Doctor Beck today. Doctor Beck, the assistants and the office staff have been nothing but professional, sympathetic and considerate of my daughter’s feelings, as well as of my wife’s and mine.
The procedure was originally set for November but we needed to reschedule, which the office and Doctor Beck did for us without hesitation or difficulty. There was no penalty, attitude or resistance — only help and cooperation.
The procedure was difficult. All four of my daughter’s teeth were impacted and it was not going to be easy. Doctor Beck had explained the procedure, answered questions and reassured my daughter, my wife and I, that every measure would be taken to ensure the best outcome. Taking time to explain things meant a lot to us.
The procedure went well, as described, lasting just under an hour. Afterward Doctor Beck went over post op procedures with us, answered our questions, phoned in the necessary prescriptions to our pharmacy and said he would be checking in with us to make sure everything was ok. From a paperwork and billing perspective, leaving the office was easy, as most all of it was taken care of prior with no loose ends or surprises.
Upon returning home, our prescriptions were ready with no delay because Doctor Beck had indeed called them in ahead. The following hours were not pleasant for my daughter because of the recovery BUT there were no surprises. We had been prepared for what was coming and were able to treat our daughter properly because of the information and direction given to us by Doctor Beck and his office. As promised, we received a call from the office in the afternoon checking in with us in our daughter’s status. That was appreciated. Then, later in the evening, we received a call from Doctor Beck, personally, checking in on my daughter. This really made my daughter feel better, as it did us.
I can only say that Doctor Beck has provided a level of care and expertise that we often no longer see from physicians today. It is without reservation that I recommend Doctor Beck, his office and staff.

The Doctor is fine. The accounting office is the issue here. First, they tell me the total bill would be 200.00. So I send my daughter there with a check for the 200 on the day of service. Then I get a bill in the mail 2 weeks later for an additional 735.00. So I call and it is the old «insurance company screwed up and Misinformed us» routine. So I give them a payment of 250.00 on my credit card and I gave them verbal Authorization to charge my credit card monthly to pay the bill for my daughter. They never charged my card. Then they say I never gave them Authorization. How did they get the 250.00 payment if I never spoke to them? In the meantime, they call my daughter who tells them To call me To get the bill paid. They never call me and now these unprofessional people will not take responsibility for this screw up. They turn me
Over to a lawyer who is adding 187.00 in unsubstantiated fees. Steer clear of this doctors office unless you plan on paying the bill in cash, in full, at the time of services. They are an accounting nightmare and needless to say, very unprofessional.

So, Dr Beck is a great doctor– my issue is with the office — I had oral surgery last year– and when I went in I spoke with the front desk, they had a form showing what was\wasn’t covered by my insurance. I was told my bill would be $ 180-​$ 200. I went in, had my procedure and when I came out, I was told there was an additional fee for the nitrous oxide (gas). Ok, I paid the whole bill and the additional fee for the gas. About 3 months later I get an $ 800 bill! What for? They told me the insurance didn’t cover what they thought it would. I called my insurance company. According to them, all I should’ve owed was the 200+ — not 800! So now after over a year I’m still battling this out and it’s been referred to collection. I spoke with one of the secretaries at The Weinstein Group– the atty handling his collections– and was told they hear this same story over and over. So– my advice– GO ELSEWHERE! !
