Dr. Frank A. Mindicino, DDS

Dentist just up and closed his practice after 40+ years. No real notice, had made appointments and didn’t forward ANY records of my child who had been going here for years. Ethically, this was an awful way to close his 40+ year old practice. Dr. Mendicino's practice is literally SOLD and they are gone like the wind. Terrible end to a long, long dental practice.

Worst experience with a dentist I have ever encountered in 50 years. Phoned them in advance to see if they were a United Healthcare in-network insurance provider, as I was looking for a dentist closer to home—they never called back after saying they would. Had to call back twice to get their answer. Was told by “Gina” that they accepted my insurance and that routine cleaning and x-rays were covered. Fast forward post visit, and I received a bill for $233. I asked for an itemized breakdown of services over a week ago, and that has not been provided to me. Dr. Mindicino and “Gina” claimed, “[I] have poor insurance”, even though I have top-tier United Healthcare Choice Plus. I asked him if it was more a case that the office is potentially overcharging services for me and the insurance carrier, to which he did not reply. Bottom line: To be told by the office staff my coverage was accepted and services would be covered ahead of the visit and then be invoiced after the fact—with no explanation— is a completely unscrupulous way of conducting business. I will never do business with this dental office again and would encourage other consumers to consider seriously their choices when seeking dental treatment and a dental provider.

Not a good dentist. I recently moved new to the area and needed a dentist for an urgent ugly tooth pain. This dentist took advantage of the situation. Do not rely on his judgement to treat your pain. He had me come in for three visits and the fourth visit was the actual treatment. He charged me though for each visit separetly. He is expensive. Make sure you discuss with him your insurance limits clearly upfront. I would not recommend his services to anyone. He did not provide me with proper consultation. He uses still very old dentist equipment. Unless you are in a desparete need for a dentist, you should find a another practitioner .

Excellent general dentist. Under his care for decades.
