Mr. Coffee Nerves: Here I thought the story would be about her screeching in the patient's ear while working, but it's about overcharging. That's what I get for RTFA. I once changed dental practices when they hired a guy who loved to whistle while he worked and had a CSB in the chamber.

Obligatory after looking at the picture in TFA: "I'd drill it." "I'd fill her cavity." "I'd give her gingivitis the hard way"

Or to go a little darker: "I want to pump her full of sodium pentathol and root her canal"

Lee, who has since moved to Maryland, said the dentist began billing him $100 a day for every day his negative Yelp posting remained online.

Yeah that sounds legit.

Maybe he swallowed the parrot.

I dunno. If I went to have work done that involved sticking sharp metal objects into my body and they handed me a form to sign promising that I won't say bad things about them afterwards, I would be out the door so fast...

Fine, you aren't allowed in "Sticky's Discount Tattoos and Stuff" anymore!

I'd drug her, pull all her teeth out with pliers, tie her up and use her toothless mouth whenever I wanted with no worries of being bitten.

Terribly written and researched article. I am very interested to hear the doctor's point of view on the fee. I know that fees are higher in NYC, but when somebody comes to me with a blown out tooth, the whole bill is around $2500. Without insurance. She's got some 'splainin to do.

/click on link, two words come to mind: high maintenance.
//that photo, is that her publicity shot, or taken by the Daily News?
///I think that if she could be topless, she would be

When you sign an agreement agreeing you're not going to do something, then do it, don't be surprised at a bad outcome.

Sorry, But I can't sign away my 1st amendment rights of freedom of expression.

Uh, subby, the patient is the one filing the suit....

For a decade, I've been battling with so-called dentists like you. It all started when I broke my front tooth playing ping-pong of all things. I slipped on a loose rug, hit my mouth on the edge of the table, and then snapped the tooth off at the gum line, root still firmly planted. Bleeding profusely, I grab my nephew, drop the tooth in a glass of milk, and race to the dentist. It's barely five o'clock on Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, and wouldn't you know it, the old professional "dentist" is already gone. I have to track him down at home, which his answering service makes almost impossible, and then beg him to come fix my tooth. He finally shows up around eight, stinking of gin, and does a sloppy job of gluing my tooth back in with what tastes like rubber cement. He then proceeds to charge me over $1000. For that? I could've done that at home.

I'm sorry if you went to school and got some fancy advanced hygienist diploma, but that doesn't qualify you to gouge people, prick.

It sounds like someone got all butt hurt after being turned down by the hot dentist and sought retribution through a negative review.

/...or maybe he just got over-charged.

Is she a fake dentist? I'm thinking she might be.

you got a dentist to come for a housecall on a holiday weekend, and you're mad that it costed $1000? plus you let him work on you while you knew he was drunk?

before you go back to your rocket trajectory calculations, I'd like to offer my services. I will come by and work on your teeth on any holiday for only half the price, and I will definitely be drunk. Plus I don't have a hoity-toity hygenist diploma, so you you know you can trust me.

Lemming of the BDA will hear about this!

69th floor? That's surprising. Here's an extract from Wiki.
When the building first opened, it contained a public viewing gallery on the 71st floor, which was closed to the public in 1945. This floor is now the highest-occupied floor of the Chrysler Building, it was occupied by an office space management firm in 1986.[39] The private Cloud Club occupied a three-floor high space from the 66th-68th floors, but closed in the late 1970s. Above the 71st floor, the stories of the building are designed mostly for exterior appearance, functioning mainly as landings for the stairway to the spire. Very narrow with low, sloped ceilings, these top stories are useful only for holding radio-broadcasting and other mechanical and electrical equipment.

Prima donna.

This is America; that's exactly what any license to practice medicine (or quackary somewhat recognized as medical) means...

Weird, I was reading about Medical Justice yesterday on Ars Technica.

Seems they sell illegal and unenforceable contracts to dentists, which is the basis of Dr. Hottie's complaint.

Hopefully she loses and sues Med Justice.

Wow, guy, it really looks like you just called me a prick right there. I think you are projecting.

I was saying that the writing was bad; I didn't say squat about if the lady was right in what she charged. In fact, I went the opposite direction. I just want to know her side of the story.

I could also rattle off the three things that need to happen with a situation that you described and tell you what the fee is for all of that, but I don't really see the point since you aren't trying to have a discussion. Maybe I'll match your level of discourse by telling you that the next time you or someone you know has a dental emergency, go ask some random guy in an investment firm or produce manager at your grocery store what to do. Good luck with that.

You know, barbers used to double as dentists.

Dude sounds like an anti-dentite.

After seeing a picture of the world's hottest dentist, it's not all that surprising. You just missed the joke and thought subby was being literal.

And yeah... I'm not sure I want her as my dentist (an NDA is a deal breaker for me and a bad sign), but I'd [insert crude sexual comment here]. Quite a little hottie.

Maybe it's just me, but she looks like a biatch.

You got dumped by a dentist, didn't you?

Seriously, why don't you swing by document-mart, pick up your dental degree, and open up a practice so you can be the guy offering the fair prices? Supply and demand, right? You should do awesome.

CSB time...

The day after thanksgiving this jackass slipped and busted his tooth out while playing ping pong, you would think having called my office he would have known that I was closed. I felt bad for the treatment this dickwad was giving my messaging service and cousin Eddie kept telling me it was a great idea, so after the 10th gin and tonic. I grabbed my kids rubber cement and set out to make an easy thousand off the books. What a self righteous dick, doesn't this guy know what emergency rooms are for.

If you saw a nutty ex-employee slag off a business in a crazy way, would it influence your opinion of the place? I'm dealing with this now. I'm thinking I won't respond and just let her dangle there, crazily. Seems better than responding to it.

Another first- a dental troll.

Also, besides her hotness, this dentist's business model intrigues me. Why is she in that location?
