That's pretty odd as I've been going to Penn Dental (most recently at their new digs at 38th and Market) for 15 years or so, and I've seen a dentist every single time. Never have I had just a cleaning without a dentist coming in to examine my mouth and review the x-rays if necessary. Same with both my spouse and child. Heck, my kid has been going since their teeth first came in.

Edit: I would hope you made your displeasure known to the front office. Penn Health takes their patient feedback very seriously. I can't imagine registering a complaint and having the same issue a second time.

By the way, I love the name! (Currently wearing a golden monkey shirt)

Thanks! I started drinking Victory before the bottles had labels and the Downingtown brewery was constructed as my brother’s friend was related to one of the founders. Summer of ‘93. I drank a six-pack of what turned out to be Golden Monkey and Storm King Stout…I got so, so sick. But I’ll always have loyalty to the brand.

That is so cool! I discovered it around the time I got married. Loved it. Ever since I ask for a case of GM for my birthday.

I know, right? I even asked for the cost of having to get my medical records as I’d been a patient since 2002, but the woman in the front desk didn’t even react. I just moved on; sadly, medical discrimination still a thing, and I doubt they care what a Latinx has to say. I had been happy with the care until they moved to 38th…when they were at 34th everything was fine! Both dentists and hygienists left after the move (I know because one of them started working for my new dentist)
