I am extremely dissapointed with the service I received in this establishment. I have been a client for several years and spent thousands of dollars here. When I told Dr. Amato that after several treatments I was still experiencing pain that was causing difficulty when I tried to eat. His response was and I quote, "Well, maybe that is not the worst thing." I am overweight and have been my entire life. But after this comment I spiraled into a deep depression. After almost a year I have not seen him, he has not entered my examination room since. When I went in for a cleaning a few days ago. The older white woman with greyish hair who always sits behind the desk was not there. I could hear loud laughing in the background. No one greeted me for several minutes. When someone finally came out I was informed that I had a same day cancellation fee. And that it needed to be paid before I was allowed to have my cleaning. I went outside and spoke to my husband. He said that he spoke to someone that morning asked them to refrain from mentioning it to me. That he would take care of it as soon as possible, later that afternoon or the next day. I went in and told meegan, my cleaner what he said. We are not a wealthy family and his paycheck had not yet cleared in his bank account. She told me that my account had been "flagged" by the lead administrator and that I was not to be seen until the amount had been paid. The fee was $79. I am in their Bright Program for the 2nd time. Which means I have payed a lump sum fee of several hundred dollars for a certain number of cleanings. This means that my current cleaning and the next two scheduled cleanings were already paid for in full. I can't even fully express the level of disappointment I am experiencing right now. - Lea Smith

Richard Amato Introduce

Welcome to the dental practice of Richard Amato, located at 324 Elm St STE 103A, Monroe, CT 064682280, USA. While Dr. Amato's practice is situated in the United States, we understand that users in US accessing this Theme Park Directory may be seeking information for potential travel or have connections in the Monroe, Connecticut area. We aim to provide an objective overview based on the available customer reviews, which present contrasting experiences regarding patient care, communication, and administrative practices.

The environment at Dr. Amato's office is described differently by two reviewers. One patient who had a negative experience does not comment on the office environment. However, another patient found the office to be modern, exceptionally clean, and adorned with beautiful murals, suggesting a pleasant and well-maintained physical space.

Richard Amato DDS offers general dental services. One patient who had been a client for several years and spent a significant amount of money reported feeling extremely disappointed with Dr. Amato's response to their ongoing pain, which they found insensitive and dismissive. This patient also experienced issues with a same-day cancellation fee and was denied a pre-paid cleaning due to an administrative flag on their account, despite being enrolled in the Bright Program where cleanings were already paid for. This indicates potential issues with patient communication and billing policies. In contrast, another patient who was extremely nervous about a procedure found Dr. Amato and his team to be professional and accommodating. Dr. Amato is credited with working diligently to ensure the patient's comfort. The staff is described as very welcoming, patient, and eager to help, leading to a highly recommended experience.

Key features of Richard Amato's practice, based on the reviews, include a modern and exceptionally clean office environment with beautiful murals, a professional and accommodating team (as reported by one patient), and a dentist (Dr. Amato) who can work diligently to ensure patient comfort during procedures. However, a significant concern is raised by another patient regarding insensitive communication from Dr. Amato and rigid administrative practices concerning billing and pre-paid services, leading to a highly negative experience. Potential patients should be aware of these contrasting reports.

There is no specific promotional information available for Richard Amato DDS in the provided data. However, the contrasting testimonials, one highlighting professional care and a pleasant environment, and the other detailing significant issues with communication and administrative practices, should be carefully considered by individuals and families in or connected to the Monroe, Connecticut area seeking dental care. Potential patients may want to inquire about the practice's communication style, billing policies, and approach to patient concerns before making an appointment.
