1 /5 Sam West: I booked appointments to deep clean teeth and gums. Sessions with the Principal were charged out at $1250 for one hours treatment. From the moment I stepped into the treatment room to the time I stepped out, on two occasions, was only 45 minutes. At that very high hourly rate, I felt overcharged and cheated. Two sessions with an hygienist, charged out at $340 per hour, were meant to be one hour, but I was ushered in, treated and out within 45 minutes, They always seemed rushed. I was also kept waiting up to 25 minutes before each appointment.
Compared to other practices I had visited over the years, I found Kew Periodontics level of treatment less than satisfactory and their charges substantially higher than most.
The reception staff I found to be distant, aloof. I have had more positive interactions with an AI robot.
Overall a most unpleasant, disappointing and overly expensive experience.

Over charging and shortened treatment time not addressed by Kew Periodontics!!
Dont quote an hourly rate, if you have no intention of giving an hour of full service, or adjust the amount charged if a patient is out of the chair sooner.( Kew Periodntics reply to that stinks of B/S)
Time overruns of appointments can be understood. However, being short changed on my quoted and allotted treatment times, without adjustment of the very high hourly rates charged, is NOT acceptable. Compounded by the feeling of rushed treatments and below average customer care and service I personally experienced on every appointment in the chair and by reception staff. Which again reinforces my view of the unpleasant, disappointing and overly expensive experience.
