Orthodontic Specialists of Florida Alan Shoopak Orthodontic Specialists of Florida refuses to treat me despite payment efforts during pandemic, wont return calls, emails, messages. Mary Esther Florida

refuses to treat despite payment arrangements. I offered to pay 75% of my account balance 300 of the sub 500 I owed. Sorry but that is insane during a time when I am unemploymed due to covid and doing my very best to pay creditors. The owner Alan Shopak has been made aware of the situation and this is business as usinal for them as they refuse treatment. This is literally the Mcdonals of ortho. you will be treated like a number that you are on a ledger book, nothing more. Considering that treatment cannot be fully completed until I receive my retaiuner, it makes ZERO business or ethical sense to deny treatment durring this time when I have made every effort to resolve my balance.

Office staff has refused to take my calls, emails or mesages over months. Only after wrinting a review on social media did they magically find the time to call within hours to propose I pay $200 to have the appliances removed. Make sure you call the OFFICE ITSELF NOT THEIR TOLL FREE SALES number for all of their locations to ensure that you can communicate with these guys. They pretty much foregt about you when and if you are unable to make a payment and charge a non suf funds fee similar to a bounced check fee when your card does not go through during a worlwode pandemic.
