I haven't lived close to Merit Dental for over 6 years, yet I refuse to go anywhere else since becoming a patient more than a decade ago. Bridget and Dr Kindler (now Nicholson, I think?) Are efficient, gentle, and just pleasant to be around. Also, Bridget is always hilarious which helps my anxiety. I have chronic migraines that greatly impact my ability to get dental care comfortably. THE ENTIRE MERIT STAFF CONSISTENTLY GOES OUT OF ITS WAY TO ENSURE MY COMFORT. ALWAYS. My last visit, I needed a custom mouth guard that my insurance doesn't cover. Dr Nicholson worked with me on cost, giving me a generous price break. Being on disability, I can't express how much I appreciate that. Merit dental is just THE BEST in every way. Now, if you guys could just go around to my other doctors' offices and help them all treat patients with the same overall care that you do....

The office manager was rude and hateful and mouthy she sent me a bill for some services from 2018 it is now 2020 for some reason they did not tell me the dentist at that time was not in my insurance plan. It Looks like by all the comments she needs fired she a would not let or my insurance company say anything What kind of a professional office does that to their patience. I will never go back.

I had been seeing Dr Retherford for over 20 years. When Merit Dental took over his practice, then subsequently forced him into retirement, the professionalism and attitude of the office staff dropped-off significantly. Dental staff remained great (especially Bridgette) , however the attitude of the office staff has led me to search for a new dental office for my family.

My old dentist retired without notice and it seems as if there are all new faces in the office. Christine, the new office manager is awfully rude and unorganized. Office seems chaotic and as if nobody knows how to work the systems. After years of me loving Merit Dental I will be finding a new office. No longer will they get my good insurance money!!!

It had been almost 8 months since I had seen my regular dentist and I had to switch due to insurance reasons, everyone was polite, the cleaning was gentle. The only problem, I am still waiting to receive the cost of what my insurance won't cover. My appt was at 3:00 I was done by 3:45, I told them I was leaving at 5 p.m. and told them to email me the cost of all the crowns ( of course ) they want to do.

Went in for my first appointment yesterday after not seeing a dentist in almost two years. Have never enjoyed going to the dentist for all the normal reasons, and will probably never be excited to say I'm going to the dentist, but I felt welcomed and comfortable in the Merit Dental office. Abigail asked lots of questions which helped me feel more comfortable and explained each process throughout x-rays. Dr. Suh was also friendly and welcoming when he came in towards the end of the appointment. The front desk was also helpful and explained the costs of future appointments well.

I have been going to this office for years. The doctor I was seeing retired, and I was not notified prior to my last visit. I saw Dr. Nicholson. It took me saying something 3 times before she believed that she was causing me pain when drilling an old filling. She seemed rushed to get finished and move on to the next patient.

I was in this morning for 2 fillings that fell out. I had a Dentist (sorry, forget his name, Don I think) that was in from Louisville to help out due to the office being short staffed and he and his assistant were awesome! He asked if I felt I needed numbing (which I didn't think I did), rather than just doing so, and put in the 2 fillings very successfully without any pain. He took his time, ensured that everything was good and it was a fantastic experience. I don't mind be numbed if needed, but since he asked a few questions and didn't think he needed to do so, I appreciated this. Thank-you very much, it was a great experience!!

Very pleased with hygienist Brigitte. Very displeased with temporary doctor that saw me. Was not told that my regular dentist (Dr. Retherford) wasn't there anymore either prior to my appointment or at the check in. The temporary dentist did not introduce himself. He even came in during my cleaning to tell the hygienist that she forgot to do something on the computer for a previous patient. I felt this was rude and interrupting to my cleaning. Very unprofessional not to mention embarrassing for the hygienist to be scolded in front of a patient. I feel that now Dr. Retherford has left (whether voluntary or not - I don't know) the practice seems to be more interested in making a quick buck on patients instead of truly caring for the patients like Dr. Retherford. I've been going to this practice for 15 years. After this visit, I'm not sure I ever want to return or refer anybody.

My husband and I (Sandy Pelok) both go to Merit Dental in Westerville. I go to Dr. Kindler. She is the best dentist. She is always pleasant and kind. When I have an urgent need she is always accommodating and knows her stuff. I highly recommend Dr. Kindler for your dental needs. I, Philip, had gone to Dr Retherford for almost 30 yrs. I was not told that he left the practice before my appointment to apply a crown and they tried to put me with some guy I never met. I find this very unprofessional. I went to Dr Nicholson, who is very professional and caring. Her assistant David is also very good and professional. My hygienist Bridget is the best. Since Dr Retherford and Renee, who ran the front desk, are gone the office seems to be in disarray. That "feel good" experience and laughter that you used to hear are gone, too. I am seriously considering finding a different dental practice.

Had a visit yesterday, I have no issues with my tooth cleaner, I have been going for years and Bridget always does a good job. They informed me that Rutherford had retired, I felt like they knew he was going to do this and they could have informed me before I was sitting in the chair. The new dentist saw me and wasn't as nice as Rutherford and my biggest issue is when a doctor/vet/dentist, a professional I go to for their honest opinion in a field I don't know about, uses his/her position to start selling product. I was told I needed a toothpaste that costs $22/tube and what do you know I can get it at the front desk. Don't use your position to push product. You start crossing that line of do I really need it or are you trying to make a few bucks. I refuse to go anywhere that includes a sales pitch as part of my appt. I left a vet for exact same reason.

We've been going to this office since we moved to Columbus. My kids are now 17 and 14 and were 2 and an infants when we started with Dr. Retherford. At my last appointment, just yesterday, I was sad to learn Dr. Retherford was gone and that the best front desk person, Renee were leaving. The office seemed a bit crazy and stressed. I didn't care for the way the dentist that saw me spoke to me. Considering making a change after all these years. Kind of a bummer...

I started going here based on a recommendation 10+ years ago to see Dr. Retherford based on his quality and "painless" service. I have been so happy with the quality, service, and professionalism of Dr.Retherford and ALL of his staff that I too have recommended friends and family. Over the years the business has changed and additional Dentists have joined the practice who have also been of equal caliber. You can not go wrong choosing Merit Dental of Westerville. I love them and appreciate their personal and caring touch. I'm no wimp but I still want the most gentle dental experience I can get. No one gives a less painful Novacaine shot!!!! Choose right!

It is a shame that we didn't receive the kind, caring treatment yesterday that we are accustomed to receiving by the attending dentist. This time Dr. Kindler-Nicholson felt it was her place to diagnose my child with non-existent psych problems because he was apprehensive at the mention of braces. After a long talk with a Patient Representative directly connected to the Dental Director at Merit Dental, it seemed beyond obvious that this situation was very preventable if Dr. Kindler-Nicholson would have used discretion, compassion and humility in her verbal communication. After our dental appointment, I calmly and honestly described what will occur at an orthodontic consult (what Dr. Kindler-Nicholson did not do) and my son is perfectly fine with it "Let's go, I'm in" he says. So, tomorrow, off we go to the orthodontist without fear. I hope Merit Dental can assist and counsel Dr. Kindler-Nicholson to ensure that no other family feels shunned and discounted the way we felt yesterday.

It is a shame that we didn't receive the kind, caring treatment yesterday that we are accustomed to receiving by the attending dentist. This time Dr. Kindler-Nicholson felt it was her place to diagnose my child with non-existent psych problems because he was apprehensive at the mention of braces.

I wish I could give them 100 stars because I totally would. I had the most amazing experience with Stacy, my hygienist, and Dr. Nicholson. They were both so sweet and welcoming. I never felt embarrassed or ashamed to have my jacked up mouth looked at. They treated me with such kindness and respect and helped me get comfortable asap as I was in for a bad toothache. In less words, if you need a dentist, this place will have you enjoying a teeth cleaning before you leave. Thank you so much!

I have been going to a dentist for many years and felt that I was not taken care of, honestly taken advantage of. I was in need of a dentist in my network and came across Merit Dental, and was completely blown away. The service that they provide was over and beyond what I have ever experienced. Dr. Kindler was very thorough with her intial exam and put me at ease with transitioning to a new dentist. If anyone is looking for a new dentist in the area I would highly recommend Merit Dental. Their staff are friendly and the wait for appointments are very short. Check them out!

Without a doubt the best dental office that I have had the pleasure to work with. The staff are always friendly and their professionalism and expertise are outstanding. I lived in Westerville when I first started going to this practice. When I moved to Tipp City ten years ago, I could have chosen another practice in my area but I chose to stay at this practice. The drive is worth it....so if you are looking for a new practice, this is the one to call.

Brigitte is my hygienist and has provided me quality care for years and always made me feel very comfortable. I've always enjoyed her unique personality and decorations. I must say I am very disappointed that she no longer has her ceiling posters though. When I asked why, she mentioned it was not her choice but couldn't give more detail. I'm guessing the corporate clowns at Merit made some sort of mandate.

Have been using Dr. Retherford and his associates for the past 7 years and have always been very satisfied with his services. Yesterday I required "immediate" services after experiencing several days of symptoms and was able to be seen in less than one hour. After a thorough inspection, it appeared the source of my discomfort may have been linked to a sinus problem (of which I received some good advice upon, also). Dr. Retherford explained what the most likely of possibilities were. 24+ hours later I have returned to more normal conditions. You usually don''t think of your Dental Services on an ER basis, however, it's nice to know that they're available.

I was looking for a new dentist after moving to polaris area. I went to couple dental care and did some exams. I was not satisfied with their consultation. So I kept searching online, and then I found Merit Dental. It is not very close to where I am living right now, but the reviews are good. So I decided to try. It is very easy to make an appointment through phone call. And then I went to the clinic and have my teeth cleaned and checked. For a new patient, the waiting time is very short compared to other places. And the service is great. People in the clinic are very nice and patient. They really care their patient, and very honest about the treatment you need. I was very satisfied. So I decided to choose Merit Dental as my continuous dental care.

I have never flossed before, and prior to my last visit, in the last 4 or 5 visits, I have never had a cavity.

Last week I needed to have a molar replaced by a crown due to part of the tooth breaking off. I have been patient at Spring Grove Dental Care for the last two years, but this was the first significant dental procedure that I required. I recalled that having a crown made and installed would take time, and I would experience some degree of discomfort. Dr. Christine Kindler and her technician, Stacy, completely eliminated my misapprehensions. In two hours, they diagnosed, modified the damaged tooth, molded, and fine tuned the temporary crown with a bare minimum of discomfort. I have experienced more discomfort in having fillings done at other dentists than I did on this occasion. Dr. Kindler and Stacy frequently asked how I was doing and made clear how I should signal them if I did not feel right. They exhibited a high degree of professionalism while demonstrating a caring and personable "bedside" manner. I definitely felt I was in good hands. So I recommend Spring Grove Dental Care without reservation.

I haven't lived close to Merit Dental for over 6 years, yet I refuse to go anywhere else since becoming a patient more than a decade ago. Bridget and Dr Kindler (now Nicholson, I think?) Are efficient, gentle, and just pleasant to be around. Also, Bridget is always hilarious which helps my anxiety. I have chronic migraines that greatly impact my ability to get dental care comfortably. THE ENTIRE MERIT STAFF CONSISTENTLY GOES OUT OF ITS WAY TO ENSURE MY COMFORT. ALWAYS. My last visit, I needed a custom mouth guard that my insurance doesn't cover. Dr Nicholson worked with me on cost, giving me a generous price break. Being on disability, I can't express how much I appreciate that. Merit dental is just THE BEST in every way. Now, if you guys could just go around to my other doctors' offices and help them all treat patients with the same overall care that you do....

My last visit, I needed a custom mouth guard that my insurance doesn't cover. Dr Nicholson worked with me on cost, giving me a generous price break. Being on disability, I can't express how much I appreciate that. Merit dental is just THE BEST in every way. Now, if you guys could just go around to my other doctors' offices and help them all treat patients with the same overall care that you do....

The office manager was rude and hateful and mouthy she sent me a bill for some services from 2018 it is now 2020 for some reason they did not tell me the dentist at that time was not in my insurance plan. It Looks like by all the comments she needs fired she a would not let or my insurance company say anything What kind of a professional office does that to their patience. I will never go back.

I had been seeing Dr Retherford for over 20 years. When Merit Dental took over his practice, then subsequently forced him into retirement, the professionalism and attitude of the office staff dropped-off significantly. Dental staff remained great (especially Bridgette) , however the attitude of the office staff has led me to search for a new dental office for my family.

My old dentist retired without notice and it seems as if there are all new faces in the office. Christine, the new office manager is awfully rude and unorganized.

It had been almost 8 months since I had seen my regular dentist and I had to switch due to insurance reasons, everyone was polite, the cleaning was gentle. The only problem, I am still waiting to receive the cost of what my insurance won't cover. My appt was at 3:00 I was done by 3:45, I told them I was leaving at 5 p.m. and told them to email me the cost of all the crowns ( of course ) they want to do.

Went in for my first appointment yesterday after not seeing a dentist in almost two years. Have never enjoyed going to the dentist for all the normal reasons, and will probably never be excited to say I'm going to the dentist, but I felt welcomed and comfortable in the Merit Dental office. Abigail asked lots of questions which helped me feel more comfortable and explained each process throughout x-rays. Dr. Suh was also friendly and welcoming when he came in towards the end of the appointment. The front desk was also helpful and explained the costs of future appointments well.

I was in this morning for 2 fillings that fell out. I had a Dentist (sorry, forget his name, Don I think) that was in from Louisville to help out due to the office being short staffed and he and his assistant were awesome! He asked if I felt I needed numbing (which I didn't think I did), rather than just doing so, and put in the 2 fillings very successfully without any pain. He took his time, ensured that everything was good and it was a fantastic experience. I don't mind be numbed if needed, but since he asked a few questions and didn't think he needed to do so, I appreciated this. Thank-you very much, it was a great experience!!

Very pleased with hygienist Brigitte. Very displeased with temporary doctor that saw me. Was not told that my regular dentist (Dr. Retherford) wasn't there anymore either prior to my appointment or at the check in. The temporary dentist did not introduce himself. He even came in during my cleaning to tell the hygienist that she forgot to do something on the computer for a previous patient. I felt this was rude and interrupting to my cleaning. Very unprofessional not to mention embarrassing for the hygienist to be scolded in front of a patient. I feel that now Dr. Retherford has left (whether voluntary or not - I don't know) the practice seems to be more interested in making a quick buck on patients instead of truly caring for the patients like Dr. Retherford. I've been going to this practice for 15 years. After this visit, I'm not sure I ever want to return or refer anybody.

My husband and I (Sandy Pelok) both go to Merit Dental in Westerville. I go to Dr. Kindler. She is the best dentist. She is always pleasant and kind. When I have an urgent need she is always accommodating and knows her stuff. I highly recommend Dr. Kindler for your dental needs. I, Philip, had gone to Dr Retherford for almost 30 yrs. I was not told that he left the practice before my appointment to apply a crown and they tried to put me with some guy I never met. I find this very unprofessional. I went to Dr Nicholson, who is very professional and caring. Her assistant David is also very good and professional. My hygienist Bridget is the best. Since Dr Retherford and Renee, who ran the front desk, are gone the office seems to be in disarray. That "feel good" experience and laughter that you used to hear are gone, too. I am seriously considering finding a different dental practice.

Had a visit yesterday, I have no issues with my tooth cleaner, I have been going for years and Bridget always does a good job. They informed me that Rutherford had retired, I felt like they knew he was going to do this and they could have informed me before I was sitting in the chair. The new dentist saw me and wasn't as nice as Rutherford and my biggest issue is when a doctor/vet/dentist, a professional I go to for their honest opinion in a field I don't know about, uses his/her position to start selling product. I was told I needed a toothpaste that costs $22/tube and what do you know I can get it at the front desk. Don't use your position to push product. You start crossing that line of do I really need it or are you trying to make a few bucks. I refuse to go anywhere that includes a sales pitch as part of my appt. I left a vet for exact same reason.

It is a shame that we didn't receive the kind, caring treatment yesterday that we are accustomed to receiving by the attending dentist. This time Dr. Kindler-Nicholson felt it was her place to diagnose my child with non-existent psych problems because he was apprehensive at the mention of braces. After a long talk with a Patient Representative directly connected to the Dental Director at Merit Dental, it seemed beyond obvious that this situation was very preventable if Dr. Kindler-Nicholson would have used discretion, compassion and humility in her verbal communication. After our dental appointment, I calmly and honestly described what will occur at an orthodontic consult (what Dr. Kindler-Nicholson did not do) and my son is perfectly fine with it "Let's go, I'm in" he says. So, tomorrow, off we go to the orthodontist without fear. I hope Merit Dental can assist and counsel Dr. Kindler-Nicholson to ensure that no other family feels shunned and discounted the way we felt yesterday.

I never felt embarrassed or ashamed to have my jacked up mouth looked at. They treated me with such kindness and respect and helped me get comfortable asap as I was in for a bad toothache. In less words, if you need a dentist, this place will have you enjoying a teeth cleaning before you leave. Thank you so much!

I have been going to a dentist for many years and felt that I was not taken care of, honestly taken advantage of. I was in need of a dentist in my network and came across Merit Dental, and was completely blown away. The service that they provide was over and beyond what I have ever experienced. Dr. Kindler was very thorough with her intial exam and put me at ease with transitioning to a new dentist. If anyone is looking for a new dentist in the area I would highly recommend Merit Dental. Their staff are friendly and the wait for appointments are very short. Check them out!

Without a doubt the best dental office that I have had the pleasure to work with. The staff are always friendly and their professionalism and expertise are outstanding. I lived in Westerville when I first started going to this practice. When I moved to Tipp City ten years ago, I could have chosen another practice in my area but I chose to stay at this practice. The drive is worth it....so if you are looking for a new practice, this is the one to call.

I've been coming here for many years; the staff is professional and very friendly. Dr Kindler is great to work with and brings a lot of knowledge and experience. Brigitte is my hygienist and has provided me quality care for years and always made me feel very comfortable. I've always enjoyed her unique personality and decorations. I must say I am very disappointed that she no longer has her ceiling posters though. When I asked why, she mentioned it was not her choice but couldn't give more detail. I'm guessing the corporate clowns at Merit made some sort of mandate.

Have been using Dr. Retherford and his associates for the past 7 years and have always been very satisfied with his services. Yesterday I required "immediate" services after experiencing several days of symptoms and was able to be seen in less than one hour. After a thorough inspection, it appeared the source of my discomfort may have been linked to a sinus problem (of which I received some good advice upon, also). Dr. Retherford explained what the most likely of possibilities were. 24+ hours later I have returned to more normal conditions. You usually don''t think of your Dental Services on an ER basis, however, it's nice to know that they're available.

I was looking for a new dentist after moving to polaris area. I went to couple dental care and did some exams. I was not satisfied with their consultation. So I kept searching online, and then I found Merit Dental. It is not very close to where I am living right now, but the reviews are good. So I decided to try. It is very easy to make an appointment through phone call. And then I went to the clinic and have my teeth cleaned and checked. For a new patient, the waiting time is very short compared to other places. And the service is great. People in the clinic are very nice and patient. They really care their patient, and very honest about the treatment you need. I was very satisfied. So I decided to choose Merit Dental as my continuous dental care. Right now my husband also has his treatment here.

Get yelled at a lot for no real reason, other than flossing. Every time I go there they seem to get upset at me for basically nothing. I have never flossed before, and prior to my last visit, in the last 4 or 5 visits, I have never had a cavity. Now, nothing changed, and I was told that I had 2 cavities. this creates a sense of mistrust with me. this is exactly why I hate going to the dentist now.

Last week I needed to have a molar replaced by a crown due to part of the tooth breaking off. I have been patient at Spring Grove Dental Care for the last two years, but this was the first significant dental procedure that I required. I recalled that having a crown made and installed would take time, and I would experience some degree of discomfort. Dr. Christine Kindler and her technician, Stacy, completely eliminated my misapprehensions. In two hours, they diagnosed, modified the damaged tooth, molded, and fine tuned the temporary crown with a bare minimum of discomfort. I have experienced more discomfort in having fillings done at other dentists than I did on this occasion. Dr. Kindler and Stacy frequently asked how I was doing and made clear how I should signal them if I did not feel right. They exhibited a high degree of professionalism while demonstrating a caring and personable "bedside" manner. I definitely felt I was in good hands. So I recommend Spring Grove Dental Care without reservation.
