Premier Dental Care of North Colorado Springs

(For Dr George) I was a complete dental phobic person - we're talking four halcion (I'm a tiny woman) and gas and the whole nine yards and I STILL wanted to run screaming when I got into the chair. However, after 14 months seeing Dr. Anthony George I can now go in for any kind of thing totally sober and feel safe. Dr. George is the best dentist I've ever seen, both in terms of painless procedures, communication, but also just as a human being who has your health (and finances!) as his priority when he's treating you. It's rare to get over a phobia like this, but, Dr. George did it. He's good people, and a great dentist.

Went for my first time and had a great experience. All staff members were so kind and informative, plus the office has skylights which I found very relaxing watching the clouds pass. Go here for sure.

Dr. Van Ness is the kind of person that genuinely cares for people. He actually listened to me and carried on the kind of conversation that required a careful listening attitude. I enjoyed my time in his office.

The Staff were also extremely attentive to my needs and took care to let me know that they were there for me.

The entire experience was as pleasant as they could have possibly made it.

I had a really pleasant dental apt here. The dentist Doc C was awesome and did an amazing job. And the staff working there are second to none. Overall a really enjoyable visit I will deffenitly be coming back here

Dr. Stephen Calendine is absolutely the best dentist you could have! He is extremely considerate, professional, and always has the patient’s best interest in mind. Additionally, he really relates to those of us that have an aversion to dental work due to childhood experiences; he really puts you at ease and is very understanding. I appreciate his candid thoughts and sincere approach to dentistry. He consistently goes out of his way to support his patient’s and is an exceptional family dentist. Too bad we can’t clone him! Again, many thanks to you Dr. Calendine and your wonder staff!

I got a flyer in the mail saying free whitening or $100.00 gift card for new patients, I was look for a dentist so I called and got an appointment, I had a roust canal done, they did not take an x-ray after, so I went home had to come back 4 days later, because I was In a lot of pain, I called the night before my appointment asking for pain medication, they said just take Tylenol which did nothing! At my appointment they found out the dentist left part of the nerve in my tooth with the temporary filling hitting the nerve…. I have been in pain for a month waiting for my crown, I called on Friday on 12/3 they said we have it but you have to wait until Monday, I have no idea how long they had my crown for and just left me in pain! And every time I go into this office I’m waiting 15-20 minutes before they take me back, and There was maybe one other person there waiting.. now back to the flyer, so yesterday I figured I would ask about the gift card that I chose to get, and I was told by there office manager before she stopped working there that I could get the gift card, well yesterday they said I can’t get it because of my Insurance, which makes no sense to, because it dose not say anything like that on the card, and I was on chat with someone from there office saying there is no reason why I should not get the gift card.. so Kaitlyn the new office manager, called and argued with tonight which I did not appreciate… I feel like this is a scam to get people into there office! And I needed a root canal on my molar and the dentist said he did not feel comfortable doing it. So I do not recommend this dentist!!

I’ve been going to Lehman Drive Dental for almost 25 years. The staff is friendly and professional. Dr. Marc Van Ness is knowledgeable and thorough when explaining treatments and conditions. The hygienist Ronny is the best! Gentle and thorough. My kids and I love her!

The staff is wonderful, helpful and competent. My hygienist did a wonderful job of cleaning, pain free! I was instructed in a lifestyle designed to keep my teeth healthy for decades. After the X-rays, Dr. Van Ness visited, examined my mouth, and told me the X-ray was normal. What a relief. The whole experience was wonderful.

Dr.Van Ness and his entire staff are friendly, professional and kind. I would highly recommend them to anyone. As a person with a strong fear of the dentist, I've never felt more comfortable in his care.

Dr. Calendine was not our dentist that we were there to see. Our pediatric dentist had left and Dr. Calendine was just “assigned” to us. He immediately took out my son’s orthodontic spacer without being an orthodontist nor checking with my insurance in order to see if that was okay for him to do. So my insurance didn’t pay for that at all because it did not follow an orthodontic plan at all and was not supposed to come out at that time. I had to pay almost $400 out of pocket for that procedure that he NEVER have supposed to have done. Then my son cut his gum on a chip that he was eating and there was a little tiny bit of the gum (the size of a tip of a pen) that was sticking out and Dr. Calendine removed it. He listed it as “oral gum surgery” with my insurance. The insurance did not pay for that either and that cost me another almost $600 out of pocket. Dr. Calendine only cares about money and does not care about the patient. I will be filing a complaint with the board of dentistry. While my son was in Dr. Calendine‘s care, he did nothing to improve my son’s oral care at all. I am a single mom with no financial help and it took me almost a year to pay off the debt. Dr. Calendine Is NOT a pediatric dentist nor an orthodontist. Do NOT take your child there.
