I had tooth pain, Dr. Laabs prescribed clindamycin. days later I felt like I had covid19. I missed 4 days of work $530. turns out this drug mimics the flew! why would anyone prescribe this during a worldwide pandemic?! I called them and told them what happened and they still want to bill me! STAY AWAY from here!!!

Its the only place open on the weekend and I like not having to take a day off to get work done. I had to drive from St Cloud but the weekend thing made it worth it. OK staff but my dentist changed a few times over a few years so the turnover seems a bit high. And the equipment was rundown. I kind of felt like I might need a tetanus shot after each visit. I changed to a local dentist but I would go back. The work was ok.

I dreaded going to the dentist and used to have to do sedation dentistry to get me through an appointment. The first visit was full set of x-rays and cleaning. There did seems to be a lot of work recommended but Dr J was willing to prioritize the work and help me maximize my dental insurance for the year. In two visits I was able to get 10 cavities filled and a partial denture. I really like the Saturday appointment option. Dr J was patient and calming during my visits. I didn't think that I would get to a point where I didn't dread going to the dentist and now I have a dentist that I am OK seeing.

I have been a patient of Midwest Dental in Big Lake for 10 years, and a patient of Dr. J's for most of those years. I started going there because of the reasonable prices they offered for my dental care, and have continued going there all these years because Dr. J. and his staff are the most friendly, caring and compassionate staff you will ever find. I have had all my general exams and cleanings, root canals, dental caps and one post implanted at this clinic, and I could not be more happy with the quality of professional service and personal attention I always get. Dr. J. takes the time to follow up with me after my appointments, and that kind of attention and service, keep me coming back.

I had a dental amalgam filling (from a different provider) break/fall out earlier in the week. I thought it would be a couple weeks for anyone to just take a look at what happened with the filling and another appointment to fix it, but the good Dr. fit me in on a Saturday which was amazing, and they took care of a cavity I had forming on a different tooth. Will be coming back to check my other fillings and I would recommend this provider over Princeton Dental.

I have an amazing hygienist here and she does a terrific job!! I think the negative reviews must be from before they were bought out (used to be a Smile Center), or from people who don't actually go here (complaints about which insurance they don't take!?!) Dunno. Maybe she just does a great job with me, but she really does a great job with me! Well, my daughters too. So, yeah, they're even good with kids.

My experience was great. I called to get an appointment they were able to schedule me for the next day. I do not care for dentists but went in, the front desk person was very friendly and nice I only waited for maybe 2 minutes before I was called back. The hygienist was also very friendly making me feel more comfortable. Then was seen by Dr. J who was great, he made me laugh and that set my mind at ease. The procedure was quick and painless and most of all my tooth feels better. Needless to say, it was a great visit to a place I would feel comfortable going back to and working with their staff again. Thanks MWD!

My husband and our three kids have been going there in the last few years. Recently our two youngest, ages 9 and 5, had their every six month regular cleaning. Our youngest forgot to bring her stuffed animal with so she was a little nervous. One of the assistants, Dottie was very sweet and told my daughter they have little stuffed animals that she can hold on to while they do the cleaning. They care about their patients. We are pleased with their services and will continue to come back.

This place is a scam or they don't know what they doing because my son and I went for fillings and they told us we have to get root canal. So we went to another dentist which we did just a regular filling. These people only want your money so beware of them. Their cleaning is no good either. This dentist is only out for your money and is know as root canal specialist.

Had a appointment set up for 6 months after my daughter last appointment there and they call to confirm her appointment the day before and then call me back at 4:55 pm the day before to tell me they no longer take her insurance!!! Really I have a appointment set for 6 months (they stopped taking her insurance Jan.1st they said) and their just telling me the day before when I've taken off work and had to move stuff around to get her there!!!! And the person I talked to on the phone acted like it was my fault for what insurance I had, not a sorry or anything!!!! Oh yeah, And I wasn't impressed at all with the place last time I was there.

Absolutely horrible ! It was my first time being there...most businesses like this will ask you what kind of insurance you have while scheduling your appointment and call them to see what and if they will cover well they decided to wait til I was done with my appointment to tell me that my insurance doesn't cover so I ended up having to pay out of pocket an unreasonable amount that couldn't afford !!! First time going there and my last !!!! They care more about money than us!!!! Horrible

My dental needs chaned due to a job change. My husband researched and we decided on WeCare Dental in Big Lake, MN. I was skepticalonly bebecause I wanted a dentist closerto home, but I need to say that I was quickly proved wrong. Office staff is friendly and detailed. I didnt plan on going into late January but found myself with a dental emergency. I had Dr "J" as he likes to be called. He was amazing. Very professional, and he asked me very detailed questions regarding my general health to help determine the problem. Intellegent man, did awesome work and found myself feeling very comfortable at this clinic. He wwill be my dentist of choice and will recommend this clinic to friendly and family.

So many things went wrong, I don't know where to start. My questions weren't answered. The fillings I was supposed to have done were random and they didn't even get the right teeth! The filling compound used to fill was left all over my teeth. My complaints were never addressed. There were several other problems too so I filed a complaint with MN Dental Association. My complaint was "rejected" so WeCare Dental didn't have to fix all the mistakes they made. I just started going to a new dentist and he corrected all the problems. This office is more like a production line with TONS of dentists who work all hours. 90% of their dentists are Vietnamese with very poor English. Maybe they work cheap? I would never recommend this place to anyone.

STATE INSURANCE NOT ACCEPTED!!!!!!! I was a patient of the Smile Center before it became WeCare Dental. Since the dental office changed names, I had been forced to visit the Sherburne County offices to obtain both medical and dental state insurance. WeCare Dental does not except this form of insurance, and refuses to treat any new patients that are insured through the state. I understood the fact that they are not excepting new patients, but I had been seen in the when it was called Smile Center, and still I was turned away despite the fact that they had me in there records. Smile Center will not treat anyone with state coverage whether they have a emergency situation or whether it is a standard check up. EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THAT THEY DO NOT ACCEPT PATIENTS WITH THIS TYPE OF INSURANCE, AND SHOULD NOT WASTE THERE TIME VISITING THERE OFFICES, OR CALLING TO SCHEDULE A APPOINTMENT.

I have been coming to We Care in Big Lake for 2 years for general care and have been pleased with the service and the price. When I needed to have a crown done, Dr. Vu took great care of me. I was a bit nervous as this was my 1st crown, but all of the staff - from reception to hygenist and especially Dr. Vu - really made me feel confortable with the process. I honestly felt like Dr. Vu took his time and really cared about making sure the crown was an exact fit (and was concerned with my comfort at all times during the procedure) I was suprised and very happy to find that in as little as less then 2 days most pain and sensitivity was nonexistent. I don't normally write reviews but felt like WeCare and Dr. Vu were worth it. Thanks!

HORRIBLE! I went there once to just get fillings done. And the dentist did the worst job I have ever seen in my life! He didn't even fill the cavities. All he did was put fillings in random spots on the left side of my mouth. They were suppose to do work on the right side as well, but they never did it. They just kept telling me to set up another appointment to come back. I do work and go to college and have a child to care for. I cannot keep coming back over and over again. I had this work done on the left side almost 2 months ago, and I'm still not able to chew on that side of my mouth. Every time I bite down, it hurts SO BAD! So now I have to go to a different dentist and have them fix the left side of my mouth. Which whatever the price is on that bill, WeCare WILL BE paying for it.

I took my ten year old to the clinic and the staff was very courteous and Dr. J did an outstanding job explaining the procedure and extracting the tooth. Very impressed with the great equipment.

They did a wonderful job making sure my son was comfortable and relaxed during his filling. They have always been professional and expedient.

I needed cosmetic repair on a front lower tooth. It turned out great and was quick. I used the new patient special for my initial exam and cleaning. Super impressed with the high tech equipment. Dr. J.R. and his staff did a terrific job.

Had a great visit, got me in right away. Very quick job. Both the cleaning and fillings went great. Explained everything on a screen right in front of me, what they were doing and how stuff worked.

I had a dental amalgam filling (from a different provider) break/fall out earlier in the week. I thought it would be a couple weeks for anyone to just take a look at what happened with the filling and another appointment to fix it, but the good Dr. fit me in on a Saturday which was amazing, and they took care of a cavity I had forming on a different tooth. Will be coming back to check my other fillings and I would recommend this provider over Princeton Dental.

They gave my a good clean up/check up. The lady at the feotn desk was really nice and friendly to me. After my check up they gave my a little toy it was pretty cool for me. I recommended this dental for everybody!!!

I have an amazing hygienist here and she does a terrific job!! I think the negative reviews must be from before they were bought out (used to be a Smile Center), or from people who don't actually go here (complaints about which insurance they don't take!?!) Dunno. Maybe she just does a great job with me, but she really does a great job with me! Well, my daughters too. So, yeah, they're even good with kids.

Called as a new patient and they got me in right away. First visit was straight forward, told me what needed to be done and the monitor right in front of me showed exactly what was going on. Very professional office and still very personal feeling.

My experience was great. I called to get an appointment they were able to schedule me for the next day. I do not care for dentists but went in, the front desk person was very friendly and nice I only waited for maybe 2 minutes before I was called back. The hygienist was also very friendly making me feel more comfortable. Then was seen by Dr. J who was great, he made me laugh and that set my mind at ease. The procedure was quick and painless and most of all my tooth feels better. Needless to say, it was a great visit to a place I would feel comfortable going back to and working with their staff again. Thanks MWD!

Great experience!!! Very helpful in making the correct decisions about my teeth and what needed to be done. Extremely helpful while going through process and told me what was going to happen and how to respond if I experienced any pain. I did not have any pain during treatment and was treated very well by the Dr and all the staff.

My husband and our three kids have been going there in the last few years. Recently our two youngest, ages 9 and 5, had their every six month regular cleaning. Our youngest forgot to bring her stuffed animal with so she was a little nervous. One of the assistants, Dottie was very sweet and told my daughter they have little stuffed animals that she can hold on to while they do the cleaning. They care about their patients. We are pleased with their services and will continue to come back.

This place is a scam or they don't know what they doing because my son and I went for fillings and they told us we have to get root canal. So we went to another dentist which we did just a regular filling. These people only want your money so beware of them. Their cleaning is no good either. This dentist is only out for your money and is know as root canal specialist.

Had a appointment set up for 6 months after my daughter last appointment there and they call to confirm her appointment the day before and then call me back at 4:55 pm the day before to tell me they no longer take her insurance!!! Really I have a appointment set for 6 months (they stopped taking her insurance Jan.1st they said) and their just telling me the day before when I've taken off work and had to move stuff around to get her there!!!! And the person I talked to on the phone acted like it was my fault for what insurance I had, not a sorry or anything!!!! Oh yeah, And I wasn't impressed at all with the place last time I was there.

Absolutely horrible ! It was my first time being there...most businesses like this will ask you what kind of insurance you have while scheduling your appointment and call them to see what and if they will cover well they decided to wait til I was done with my appointment to tell me that my insurance doesn't cover so I ended up having to pay out of pocket an unreasonable amount that couldn't afford !!! First time going there and my last !!!! They care more about money than us!!!! Horrible

My dental needs chaned due to a job change. My husband researched and we decided on WeCare Dental in Big Lake, MN. I was skepticalonly bebecause I wanted a dentist closerto home, but I need to say that I was quickly proved wrong. Office staff is friendly and detailed. I didnt plan on going into late January but found myself with a dental emergency. I had Dr "J" as he likes to be called. He was amazing. Very professional, and he asked me very detailed questions regarding my general health to help determine the problem. Intellegent man, did awesome work and found myself feeling very comfortable at this clinic. He wwill be my dentist of choice and will recommend this clinic to friendly and family.

So many things went wrong, I don't know where to start. My questions weren't answered. The fillings I was supposed to have done were random and they didn't even get the right teeth! The filling compound used to fill was left all over my teeth. My complaints were never addressed. There were several other problems too so I filed a complaint with MN Dental Association. My complaint was "rejected" so WeCare Dental didn't have to fix all the mistakes they made. I just started going to a new dentist and he corrected all the problems. This office is more like a production line with TONS of dentists who work all hours. 90% of their dentists are Vietnamese with very poor English. Maybe they work cheap? I would never recommend this place to anyone.

STATE INSURANCE NOT ACCEPTED!!!!!!! I was a patient of the Smile Center before it became WeCare Dental. Since the dental office changed names, I had been forced to visit the Sherburne County offices to obtain both medical and dental state insurance. WeCare Dental does not except this form of insurance, and refuses to treat any new patients that are insured through the state. I understood the fact that they are not excepting new patients, but I had been seen in the when it was called Smile Center, and still I was turned away despite the fact that they had me in there records. Smile Center will not treat anyone with state coverage whether they have a emergency situation or whether it is a standard check up. EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW THAT THEY DO NOT ACCEPT PATIENTS WITH THIS TYPE OF INSURANCE, AND SHOULD NOT WASTE THERE TIME VISITING THERE OFFICES, OR CALLING TO SCHEDULE A APPOINTMENT.

I have been coming to We Care in Big Lake for 2 years for general care and have been pleased with the service and the price. When I needed to have a crown done, Dr. Vu took great care of me. I was a bit nervous as this was my 1st crown, but all of the staff - from reception to hygenist and especially Dr. Vu - really made me feel confortable with the process. I honestly felt like Dr. Vu took his time and really cared about making sure the crown was an exact fit (and was concerned with my comfort at all times during the procedure) I was suprised and very happy to find that in as little as less then 2 days most pain and sensitivity was nonexistent. I don't normally write reviews but felt like WeCare and Dr. Vu were worth it. Thanks!

HORRIBLE! I went there once to just get fillings done. And the dentist did the worst job I have ever seen in my life! He didn't even fill the cavities. All he did was put fillings in random spots on the left side of my mouth. They were suppose to do work on the right side as well, but they never did it. They just kept telling me to set up another appointment to come back. I do work and go to college and have a child to care for. I cannot keep coming back over and over again. I had this work done on the left side almost 2 months ago, and I'm still not able to chew on that side of my mouth. Every time I bite down, it hurts SO BAD! So now I have to go to a different dentist and have them fix the left side of my mouth. Which whatever the price is on that bill, WeCare WILL BE paying for it.
