Shapiro Family Dentistry Of Fort Pierce

This place is a total scam. I just paid $630.00 for what was supposed to be a 3 hour deep cleaning and received a cleaning that took less than 1 hour. I was also told that when I paid for their yearly program that 2 cleanings were included in this but now they are not even sticking to their word about that. Also note that you have to pay for the services before they are even performed.

I visited Dr. Shapiro’s Boynton Beach office to have an implant crown re-cemented. This is a review of Dr. Dari Shapiro, at any of the offices in which she works. Before they would do any work (while I was sitting in the dentist chair) they politely demanded that I pay the full amount ($200), which I found to be surprising, untrustworthy of them and distasteful. When I returned home after the work was completed, I saw they had used an incorrect and much more expensive procedure code (D6095). I gave them the correct code (D6092), which typically has a very low fee, but they claimed they were correct. I called my insurance company and we had a three-way call with Dr. Shapiro’s office. The dentist office agreed that the procedure code they had used was incorrect and that they would re-submit the claim using D6092 and refund me any difference. When I followed up with them later in the day they told me that when they put in the correct code (D6092) it also came to $200!!! Re-cementing a normal crown is usually around $50 and re-cementing an implant crown is typically around $100. This outrageous charge only further confirms that Dr. Shapiro’s office chooses to act in an unethical and unfair manner, overcharges, and uses erroneous codes, hoping no one catches it and I can only warn others to stay away. You’ve been forewarned!
