Update: My doctor showed me the scan which revealed Dr.. Corley left part of a broken off surgical instrument in my tooth and jaw AND failed to clean out one of the canals in the tooth, leaving that part of the root and bacteria. The tooth must now be extracted and I will need an implant. This is an O.K. place for cleanings, but not if you have a serious tooth issue. I saw Dr. Corley regarding severe pain under the tooth on which he had done a root canal years ago. An x-ray revealed what he called an infection. He gave me antibiotics and pain and rushed me out. I asked if a follow up was needed and he said no. The pain became so severe that I was shaking. I called his emergency number and left a message. He did not bother to even return the call. My husband took me to the emergency room where I was diagnosed with a severe abscess. I was hospitalized and placed on intravenous antibiotics and pain medication. I was in danger of sepsis and the possibility of the infection spreading to my brain. After I was released I called Dr. Corey's office and was told only Dr. Corley has access to his emergency phone. office staff was unable to get him to contact me, which is unfortunate, because he had been my dentist for many years and I trusted him. As I was leaving his office, I got a text from him that said, "It is an honor to be your dentist. I would be grateful if you could take a quick moment and leave a review." Here's your review.
Emerald Coast Dental, with Dr Corley, is an excellent establishment. Called to see if they could get my son in, whom was in extreme pain for 2-3days, the staff listened and had him to come in and they'll try to work him in. No other dental clinic even offered. The staff insured he was comfortable while waiting. They couldn't work him in, so they made next day appointment. They ordered pain and infection medications wthout any input from my son. Next day they did what they needed to do, The staff insured my son was as comfortable as possible throughout the procedure. The staff we interacted with was kind and competent, and the location is clean and pleasant.
