Have others on this site dealt with crazy dental offices?

All Dentist are like this and It’s all because of this economic downturn from the past number of years, which only gotten worse recently.
As more and more people are getting laid off, so have people’s access to their work’s benefits which includes dental coverage. So now without that coverage, dentists have been seeing fewer and fewer clients as people without work coverage are less likely to want to pay out of pocket.
So with that lack of business, dentist offices are now stepping up their sales and marketing tactics and are doing what you’ve noticed they’re doing: increased phone calls, emails, post cards
