The staff and the hygienists are lovely. Very efficiently run practice, but don't use Thomas Williams as a dentist unless you want to hear his political views while your mouth is being worked on. Very inappropriate. Also this is the only practice where I was consistently under medicated for major dental work.

The office staff is terrible. They double-billed my insurance company Cigna and me, received payment from both of us, and refused to reimburse me for 8 months. They didn't respond to emails, and if I didn't call every day and have my insurance company call on my behalf for months on end, Dr. Williams' office would have just kept both payments. Even after 8 months and to add insult to injury, they took out $36 of the refund for a check fee! Ridiculously petty!

They lose points for bad office management and billing. While waiting for FEP Blue Dental to pay, they billed me. I spent quite a bit of time back and forth between them and the insurance. They are not responsible for FEP Blue Dental, but when I talked to them on the phone, we agreed that we expected a check from the insurance this week from my insurance--Blue Dental had assured them it was on the way and they themselves had submitted it and were familiar with Blue Dental. Dentist office told me they would hold my check, and when the insurance check arrived they would tear mine up and call me or mail it back to me.
Instead they cashed it immediately. OK, so they forgot. Or someone else did it. I understand. But they just seem so addled and NOT ABLE TO REMEMBER OR TRACK THINGS from one day to the next, in general, that I will never get that money back from them. And I can't get it from Blue Dental, of course. Thomas P Williams Office gets paid twice. And as far as I'm concerned they are both fired--FEP Blue Dental and Thomas P Williams DDS.

The absolute worst experience with a dentist I have ever had. I have never had any cosmetic work (or braces, etc.) as I have never needed it except for a small bonding on a front tooth that was done 13 years ago. It was never a noticeable bond. When I went to Dr. Williams for a cleaning, he suggested that I have that bond redone. On his first attempt, he mismatched the color and I had to return. During the second attempt, he drilled down my tooth so much that it is now noticeably shorter than my other teeth.
I am now in constant pain. Since, I have visited other dentists who estimate my best plan of action to remedy the problem would be veneers, an expensive and dramatic procedure. Do not patronize this practice.
