General Dentists - Pineville, NC

"I made an appointment for a routine teeth cleaning with Dr. Harlow because I saw he was somewhat close and had two 5-star reviews on DocSpot. I made an appointment for 7am being told I would be done by 8am so I wouldn't need to shift around meetings at work - I ended up not being brought back to even start the appointment until after 8am! I was supposed to be the first patient, so I don't understand how this is possible. Secondly, and more importantly, before Dr. Harlow knew I had just a few months prior been seen by a dentist before moving across the country, he informed me I had 6 different locations needing fillings. My previous dentist had mentioned that one area may need a filling "soon" because of staining that was starting to look like decay, but definitely not 6! I am writing this review 7 months later because I wanted a third opinion before trashing Dr. Harlow's "opinion" - I have since had a third appointment with another random dentist in the area, and after a cleaning, imaging, and a full consultation he didn't support ANY of Dr. Harlow's treatment opinions. He even said my mouth is healthy, and any dentist claiming I needed that many fillings is overtreating and drill-happy. Overall, he has great bedside manor. And he should, because he is nothing but a used-car salesman pushing unnecessary dental work instead of beat up cars. Steer clear."

"Front staff is difficult to contact and they won’t return calls. I dealt with it for years until they told me the wrong date for an appointment and charged me $25 for their mistake. They lied to me about facts of the situation, saying the day I made the appointment is the day they reminded me."
