Conrad M. Willock, DDS Michael Willock, Conrad Willock RIP OFF-PRICE ALERT Chapel Hill, North Carolina

Completely shocked by a $1000 cost to redo an existing filling. I was not given an estimate when I told them to do the filling because I was in pain. At check out I was asked to pay for my visit, for which I could not pay.  I just bought a home, and they ran my credit 3 times for a dental credit plan for which I was denied. I was SO EMBARRASSED! I never paid for a filling that cost over $300 and they did not accept insurance billing. THe office manager is Dr. Willock's wife and was super rude to both me and my husband. We paid the bill in 3-4 months, but she wrote nasty notes on our bills each month. I should have been writing nasty notes to her and her office for the RIDICULOUS prices they charged. I recently got an in-office (CEREC machine) crown at another dentist that cost me $1100, so I know that Dr. WILLOCK is overcharging for my small filling.  I couldn't believe they were mad at me for not knowing that the bill would be $1000 that day. Who has an extra grand in their pocket to spend? I think they don't bill insurance companies because the prices are WAY Above customary and standard prices. I have had 11 of my 12 mercury filling redone since then and not one has cost me over $300 with "Specialty mercury removal".  They charged extra for the CEREC filling, and safe mercury removal.  There are dentist in Durham and Charlotte who specialize in Safe Mercury Removal, and you can get 3 done for the price of one at Dr Willock's Dental Office.
