Scott A Gelder, DDS

Dr Gelder is unfriendly, and worse still his facilities are filthy. I’m never going back. I can only second what the other posters have said. The man is about as cold and difficult to talk to as one can imagine. I tried to talk to him about several issues that I’m having, including an autoimmune disorder, and he acted he couldn’t care less and gave me no advice whatsoever.
More disturbing are his offices, which are filthy. There was an off putting odor in the exam room. The equipment is dirty. The chairs are old and worn, and the entire place is dingy. There’s also no privacy, as you are seated right next to another patient. I don’t know about you, but I don’t feel comfortable discussing my medical issues in front of another strangers.

IF I could give him NO STARS, I would. DO NOT GO TO THIS DENTIST:
1. Violates HIPPA laws because patient chairs are in one room.
2. Office is filthy, equipment worn out (headrests on chairs are cracked, carpet dirty, don’t even get me going about their work room which you can easily see and where they make crowns, etc.) Even the toilet was dirty.
3. Inflicts his political opinions on you via email.
4. Is not remotely warm, funny or anything else engaging. Tends towards being rude.
5. Had me sit down in a chair to wait for him with dirty equipment (incl blood) from PREVIOUS PATIENT right by my head.
I will say this. He did not hurt me during my procedure (crown, pulled tooth) which seems to have gone ok.
