Poor dental service. Understaffed. You can definitely tell the difference. Must be due to the invasion that they can't take any other appointments for actual citizens.

The dental hygienists that work here have a serious respect and decency issue. Have you heard the studies done that show some medical professionals consider people of color as 'more tolerable' to pain and therefore don't get the proper care for that pain? Well, those results would surely show up here. The dental hygienists don't listen to you if you're a person of color. They only listen to themselves and what they can spew out to make themselves look halfway decent but you'll find yourself talking to a wall.
I don't make these accusations lightly. This is a repeated issue that I've seen happen for years here. If you're a person of color, I strongly recommend going somewhere else. Maybe other dental offices in or around Mankato would actually consider you a person.

Disappointed with this clinic. Waited 3 months to be seen because was told new patients were accepted for my children. Only to get a call one week from my appointment after I called 3 weeks prior to confirm that they will be canceling my appointments and good luck on finding another dentist. Very BS way for them to go about that due to short staff.
