Dentists

Getting braces with K. Corbett was the WORST health-related process that I've ever experienced. I know lots of people don't mind his religious proselytizing but I found it excessive. I don't need to be told that my "teeth are in the hands of god." I'm not paraphrasing by the way. I did not appreciate that kind of aggressive pretentiousness. He was also very unprofessional as he would talk on the phone while working on clients' teeth. His communication skills were also quite poor for a professional. For instance, I had to get a hyrex before getting braces but he was unclear with me about how long I would have to wear it, saying "not for very long" and resisted my attempts to get a more specific answer out of him. I ended up having it on for too long and it caused problems for my teeth. He also recommended tightening the hyrex multiple times per day at one point, which other orthodontists told me was not recommended as it could cause nerve damage in the jaw area. His office also called us at like 10 PM to respond to our requests and were overall not courteous. My friends went to Dr. Bhalla in Williams Lake, who gave them (at no extra charge) brand new electric tooth brushes (valued at $190) when they got braces, and generally had a much better experience than I did. Many of the dentists in Quesnel recommend Corbett but I have to say, I was not impressed, especially since he wanted to charge me extra for replacing my post-braces retainer. He's nothing but a marketer and a twisted obnoxious prophet. My experience is not necessarily unique either as he drilled into my friend's gums at one point while talking on the phone and simultaneously doing some client work. He clearly doesn't take his job seriously. People might like him because he seems to joke around quite a lot but the reality is, he smiles too much. Generally, you should never trust someone who smiles all the time, has communication issues, and doesn't treat his clients with respect.

I was booked into an appt on a monday unfortunately got sick & could not make it nor cancel my appointment as I couldnt give 24 hr notice so was charged a sum of dollars. Was told my husband & kids arent allowed to go to their appointments the day after. Not impressed with their rude service nor not understanding ppl do get sick. My family & I will go elsewhere.

Went in today with an emergency toothache, they made sure I was taken care, even if it required working late but I was still able to get in before close. 5/5

Best Dental office in my 75 years of going to a Dentist. Reuben Tataryn DDS, is a kind & considerate Man & if he can't do it he will refer you to his Son in Spokane who is also a great Dentist.

This devil declared a tooth DEAD - without any x-ray...just by looking at it. I foolishly believed him and allowed him to start drilling...MY LIVE TOOTH! WHEN HE HIT THE NERVE A MASSIVE SHOCK SHOOK MY WHOLE BODY! STAY FAR AWAY!!

Dr. Tymkiw responded to my dental emergency at the hospital after cracking the enamel off my teeth in a horse accident. I was in pain and scared with the nerves exposed. He showed up quickly, assessed the situation and brought me back to his office for x-Rays and an emergency fix. I cannot even begin to describe how amazing he and his assistant were. They were comforting, funny, professional, and really good at what they do. I am normally very scared of dentists but I felt right at ease with them. They were like two angels who came in and took my pain away, and helped me out in a very difficult situation. The next day I had a concern about my teeth and within 5 minutes of leaving him a message he called me back to give some reassurance. I will be bringing my whole family to his office for check ups and have to say I was just so impressed with how they handled everything!
