I've been getting disillusioned with Dr. Kellogg. When I started out as a patient, it was a great place. The staff are always very friendly and helpful and I'm happy with my cleanings, but there are some things which I am not very happy about. First, since it was mentioned above, the facilities are getting dated. I don't much care about a luxury experience at the dentist, I'm just saying. My biggest gripes are the fact that Dr. Kellogg is considered a "Premier" dentist by Delta Dental, which means my dental insurance only pays 50% of non cleaning procedures, compared with 100% for a non-Premiere dentist. My other BIG gripe is that Dr. Kellogg is only in the office three days a week - and for this we pay premium prices. I had a cleaning appointment in the past on a day when he wasn't in the office, so I was not seen by an actual dentist on that visit. On my last visit, Dr. Kellogg spent all of 45 seconds with me.
On procedures, I have had fillings replaced and it has taken more than a year for the pain to go away (when chewing). Now, I don't know if this is a problem with my teeth, or a problem with the dentist, but I've received no recommendation/solution from Dr. Kellogg.
About Hygienist: The hygienists are good here. I've never had a problem nor heard about any in the years I've been a patient. This is what keeps me from rating the overall experience one star.
