Very disappointing experience. I had been going to Tampa Smiles for years and was never once late for an appointment. I had to reschedule an appointment ONE time and they hit me with a massive charge. I even called ahead to let them know.
I'll be looking for a new dentist now.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Actually, Andrew, I have a bit of an issue with the accuracy of your statement
1-You have been a patient for less than two years and been in 3 times
2-You were given an opportunity via text 4 times to cancel or confirm your appointment one week, two days, one day, and four hours before your appointment and did not.
Considering I do my very best to respect my patients time. You were given 4 opportunities BEFORE your appointment to confirm with us and chose not to makes me agree it IS best for you to find a different office - 352216445911Apr 29, 2019Updated review
Updating my review to confirm that a year and a half later, they are still the best.
Now, it takes me 35 minutes to drive here, what up Tampa traffic?, but I'm still willing to make the drive, because they are efficient and I trust them.
I scheduled my appointment without thinking about the fact that I needed to get in and out in an hour to be able to pick up my baby from daycare. I've been to many doctor's appointments and this would have made me stressed because I've found they rarely run on time, however, I've learned this office is super efficient so I actually wasn't that concerned.
I told my dental hygienist upfront that I was picking up my son right after and she immediately said let's get you in and out then! When she was done with my cleaning I actually heard her telling Dr. Redd that I had someplace to be. In turn, he was super quick with my check. I really appreciate that and I scheduled my next appointment when I have more time. I actually got out in fifty minutes and I didn't feel like I was rushed at all.
I also appreciate how they have little water bottles in the waiting room. They also have cookies. When I'm waiting there's usually just me or just me and one other person so I know they don't over schedule.
Whenever anyone asks about a dentist, I always highly recommend Dr. Redd. This office is fantastic.Helpful 7Thanks 0Love this 10Oh no 0Business owner information

Thank you SO much for your kind words! We work very hard to earn our patients trust. I especially value the specificity of your comments
Nov 25, 2017Previous reviewGreat place to get your teeth cleaned.
I'm very lucky in that I have a flexible job so I can drive distances to go places that I deem the best. Yes, it took me 20 minutes to get here, but I definitely think it is worth it because 1. They aren't a chain and 2. I trust them.
I think dentists are like mechanics, they can tell me a load of bs and I have to trust them because I don't know any better. I left my last dentist because it was headache to schedule an appointment (they wouldn't schedule six months in advance, they canceled my appointment and then kept asking me to call back at different times when the scheduler was in the office). Here, you can schedule online! It's the generation of technology so it shocks me that more places do not do this!
I arrived at 1:15 p.m. for my 1:30 p.m. appointment because I figured that as a new patient I'd have paperwork to fill out. This was the case, but I wasn't able to fill it out when I arrived because the woman at the front desk was on a personal call. I got to hear all about how she pays $36 per trash pickup and they haven't shown up three times! They were confusing her account with someone elses and weren't giving her the credit. (Trust me, I know a whole lot more about her trash pick up because I had to listen to it for 12 minutes - I timed it).
A lot of people were returning from lunch at 1:30 p.m. At 1:34 p.m. someone asked me if I completed paperwork (insert smiley with straight line for mouth here). Luckily, it didn't take very long. I finished paperwork at 1:42 p.m. and left it on the desk since nobody was there. At 1:47 p.m. I was called back for my appointment.
Luckily, this is where all the weirdness ended (and trust me, I found it pretty weird). The dental hygienist was amazing. She told me she has been there for 17 years so I wouldn't have to worry about turnover of staff! I really love how they have a tv in the room so I can focus on something other than somebody scraping my teeth.
Dr. Redd was also very personable and made sure his portion of the visit was quick. I felt like he is the type of dentist I can trust.
Since it was my first appointment it took a little longer, but they said on average they will get you in and out in less than an hour.
Also they have a killer referral program. You get actual cash (not dental credit) for every person you refer. Take this as a strong endorsement from me, so if you choose this dentist, you can always say that Christina G. referred you! - Ronald K.Tampa Bay, FL02413Jul 13, 2020
What a delight! If you never thought you'd say that about trip to the dentist, then you haven't see Dr Redd. He carefully explains, is gentle, and does expert repairs. His staff is also attentive and efficient with a welcome sense of humor. I have been very pleased with the fit and color of my crowns and fillings. My bite has never been more precise. Highly recommended.

Dr. Redd, Tania, Denise and the rest of his team are real professionals, can't recommend highly enough. I think they may have set a world record for fixing a cavity today. I was 7 minutes late to start with and in a huge hurry , they sat me right down and had my cavity fixed and I was leaving in exactly 19 minutes! I have waited for longer than that to even been seen at other dentists.
As a patient you get the sense Dr. Redd is really concerned about the health of your teeth, and you can tell his employees really enjoy their jobs. Thanks!!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

Dr. Redd and team are consummate professionals. I've had several crowns and routine cleanings and it is always a delightful experience. Dr. Redd is extremely skilled in his profession of dentistry as well as a very genuine and kind person who cares deeply about his patients.

I have seen Dr Redd for almost 8 years. Definitely gives the best recommendation for your tooth. Had a dental implant done and it has been a great experience .
He and his staff is always willing to see you under any circumstances . Had a fallen front tooth and he readily accepted me , examined me , treated me and referred me to the best Orhodontist in town .Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Shaw D.Tampa Bay, FL08Sep 20, 2019
Dr Redd and his staff made my experience extremely comfortable and felt they truly had my best interest at heart and only recommended what was needed. One of the better dentists I've encountered over the years. Highly recommend

I have had many dentists throughout my adult life and this is by far the best! The hygienist I see is extremely friendly and gentle. I hate going to the dentist and this office has made me feel completely comfortable and has wiped away any anxiety I have felt in the past. The customer service is outstanding! Dr. Redd goes out of his way to text message me on my birthday and has offered me tickets to my favorite football team's games when he has extra ticket. I love that I only come here twice a year but each time I come in they know my name and remember personal things about my life and family. I also enjoy all the work this office does for the community, for the holidays they were offering free teeth whitening if patients brought in items for metropolitan ministries.

Finding new Doctors is very hard. Moved here a year ago and found a dentist that really exemplify professionalism and very knowledgable about your dental needs. I was here a few months ago to have my dental needs check and was given a plan for my food trap problem. Now, I am back for the tooth replacement and it only takes one visit. Dr Redd is very welcoming and showed me how my tooth will be replaced. All the staff are polite and professional and very friendly from the moment I made the first call. The money spent for my dental services was all worth it. Pam my dental hygienist was very thorough today and for sure be coming back for my next cleaning.

Dr. Redd and his team are lifesavers for my family again today. This is the second time they've seemingly dropped everything to fix a chipped tooth for us within a day's notice. (Yeah, we need to stop doing that!) Besides being great at emergencies, the entire office is friendly, welcoming, professional and efficient. I've been going here for 8 years, and it's always been a fast and pleasant visit. I can testify their great advice and service for both for cosmetic issues and the overall health of your smile. Thank you!
