My boyfriend has been in severe pain for days on end, and I called about 30 places to get an emergency appointment, and EVERYWHERE turned us away or were booked out tell Feb 2022. Just as I was losing hope I called Boynton and got in contact with Angie. I am convinced Angie is a literal angel. The level of service she provided to get my partner in the next day was OUTSTANDING. I will be forever thankful to her and her persistence in getting us the help we needed. Thank you Angie, we owe you one!

Referred me to an Endodontic Specialist for a cleaning and scheduled me for some deep cleanings. After the root canal I was supposed to come back to get the tooth filled. At my cleaning I tried to schedule the filling but was told that I couldn't because they needed word back from the endodontic specialist. When I mentioned this to my assistant they seemed confused because they had word back from the E.S. Ok, so I called back and rescheduled since they never called me and said they had heard from them. When I called they mentioned that the ES had maxed out my coverage which is why they never called me. "Ok, so I can't fill my tooth" I asked? They were like... well I guess but you'll have to pay out of pocket. So apparently they recommended me to get half work done, then get it filled out of pocket. It would have been great to know before I started all of it. The lady scheduling was all defensive because she "Didn't know who told me that info previously". Ok, 190 they quote me and I pay it out of pocket for the filling. Then they send me another bill for 82 bucks. I call back to see what the deal is and once again I'm met with defensiveness "We didn't force you to see the endodontist". No, you referred me to it when I came to you because I couldn't sleep from dental pain. It's someone you work with closely, so I assume they have working knowledge of their billing schemes. The lady I asked about billing was also saying "Well we didn't know how much delta dental was going to cover". Which doesn't make sense because they already told me it was maxed out. Overall I wish I had gone somewhere else. Where they could do the work I needed done and not play games or put me in this weird limbo about finances. They also keep acting defensive instead of actually trying to help me. I'm just disappointed. My assistant was super cool and helpful though and my dentist who did the filling was great too. Update: I expressed my dissatisfaction with the staff over the last phone call and they called me today and said they waived the previous fees. Its nice to know that they're willing to listen to feedback and work to resolve something beyond what I even asked for.

Never enter their trap!!!. At least not with dentist Lebo!!! I just went there to clean my healthy teeth twice in 4 years, Lebo just smiled friendly and killed my two teeth to make me do implant and root canael, so they got thousands of dollars from the pain he caused me. I reported him. But both Boyton quality control and dental directors just delayed my case and lied in the end shamelessly. I could not even sue as no other dentist would be my witness for another dentist malpractice. Anyway, the dentists can do anything and say it is all patient's fault and patients have to pay more and more money to for more and more pain. I canceled my dental insurance with Boyton and stoped going to Boyton.

I scheduled a regular cleaning months in advance, but when I finally arrived for my appointment, they told me that their hygienist was unexpectedly out for the day, and that I couldn’t be seen. But this isn’t what made it a one-star experience — things like this happen and I understand that. What made it a one-star experience: the staff made no effort to contact me prior to me showing up to tell me they couldn’t see me; they were generally unsympathetic (bordering on rude); most importantly, they refused to even try to find me an appointment that wasn’t another few months ahead, and I couldn’t wait entire months because I’d purposely scheduled my initial appointment shortly before leaving the country. I’ve been here before, and some of the dental staff truly are very kind and helpful. But U students deserve better, and if you can help it, you should go elsewhere or risk awful (and incredibly inconvenient and unapologetic) customer service.

Great service - I really loved Dr. Annika Simon, hygienist Sabrina, and the receptionist Angie. Just make sure to cancel or reschedule the appointments before 24 hours - I think you will lose access to the clinic if you cancel within 24 hours more than 3 times.

The Dentists and staff at this clinic are very professional. They have an ultrasonic cleaning system that I really like. Katie is a credit to her profession.

I have come here twice for dental emergencies -- the first time, the hygienist was fantastic and really went above and beyond. After going recently, the service was horrible... rude hygienist, extremely rude receptionists, the dentist didn't even look at the issue, and refused to fix my prescription. This is below the standard of care one would expect from a Big 10 university. I am considering not returning even though it is convenient and cheaper.
