Your trust is our top concern.
We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.
We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

After a regular cleaning, Dr Rust recommended a "minor" filling. He said, "it probably won't even need an anesthetic". The earliest appt was at 7 weeks & I was told the tooth would be fine. I arrived on time. After probing caused real pain, he said to reschedule so they can get a medical release for anesthetic. I said it may be 2 months or more before I could reschedule. Dr Rust said "it's not that bad, just keep it clean." [WHAT?! - NOT good advice for a periodontal patient!] They failed to properly plan my treatment during the 7 wk wait, leaving me in pain & risking infection!
I immediately scheduled with another dentist. IT WAS NOT MINOR! The new provider said there was NO WAY a licensed professional should have scheduled or attempted treatment without planning for anesthetic!!
Shame on you, Dr Rust! You violated our confidence & trust! We won't return.
We support ALL local businesses to help build our community. We can no longer support Clear Creek Family Dental. Be better.
