Dr. Joel Stafford of Comfort Dental of Falcon, Colorado butcher, Bad dentist, Greedy dentist, Nutjob THIS GUT IS A BUTCHER -- DO NOT TRUST YOUR FAMILY AND YOURSELF TO HIM Falcon, Colorado

It is sad that this response has to be written. In our now six years of doing business we have never experienced this sort of outright dishonesty. The statements and claims found in this report are false and have no merit. From our stand point there is much information about the plantiff that could be included which, would help to make our case clearer and more convincing, but due to hipaa laws and respect for others we are unable to divulge that information. Even those who tell lies and use the internet as a way to tarnish the reputation of others for their own personal/monetary gain those details will be omitted. 

The plantiff is correct in stating that I removed a tooth which was non-restorable. And yes in the process the crown of the adjacent tooth was dislodged and it was noted that decay was present underneath. The patient was notified of this and the crown was bonded back on the tooth until further work could be completed at the proper time. All of which is standard operating procedure.

The rest of the complaint is confusing even to me. It has been years since this patient was treated.To the best of my knowledge he had multiple dental issues and was given options of how to treat them. If he was missing a tooth then he was given an option for having a bridge placed to fill the space caused form the missing tooth. I discussed prices and options with him due to the fact that in our office we, the Dr.'s have that conversation and do not let a third party do it. We find that it is more helpful in developing the relationship with the patient and helps us understand their needs better.

What may be the most frustrating part of this whole process is that this is one persons opinion. It was expressed in such a way that makes it almost impossible for the general public to decifer truth from fiction. As a doctor I and my partners are comitted to doing nothing but providing the dental care that our patients need in a relaxing non-threatening enviorment. We have so many of our patients tell us how much they enjoy our office and the experiences they have had here. I would also encourage any of our existing patients who may come across this website to reaffirm what I have stated and to share their dental experiences at our office. 

Lastly, I would encourage all who are looking for a great family orientated dental practice to come and visit our office. We have served the Falcon community for six years and plan to be here for many more.

Sincerely, 

A concerned Dr.
