The dentist staff was so rude to me this morning that she made me cry! Do you think she was rude?

So I was having a bad toothache last night and I was told A while back that I needed a root canal so this morning I called and said that my tooth has been hurting and she explained to me how much it is? Well I asked. Then she explained it to me. I asked how what if I can’t afford it.
She paused and said, “Look I thought that when you asked how much it is, you had the money for it. I don’t know why I’m wasting my time explaining to you about the prices if you can’t even afford it. A complete waste. Theirs no point.”
She didn’t have to be so rude. I was like, “I was just asking.” And she said, “We’ll I’m telling you the truth. Their is no point in asking if you want even afford it. Call me back when you can and we can work out a payment plan. Have a nice day.” And she hung up. I started crying. Where’s my daddy when I need him? RIP Daddy 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Wt fffffff? There are definitely places out there that’ll work with you on a payment plan. F that place forever.

@DrawntoaDistance Yeah I may have to find another dentist because like my late dad told me several times, never let anyone disrespect or treat you any kind of way. Walk away.

She contradicted herself by saying, "Call me back when you can afford it and we can work out a payment plan"
If you can give an initial deposit then you can work out a payment plan.
I hope there is another dentist for you to go to.
When you ring them explain the issue with your tooth and ask if they can work out a payment plan for you.
If you can afford them get some Ibuprofen - Advil or Motrin

How would you know whether you can afford it or not if you didn't know how much is it?
Unprofessional of her but I don't think that's the (main) problem. I'm sorry for your loss.
Do find a different dentist.

Don't take her actions personally. Unprofessional behaviour by her tbh.

@SW-User I can’t help how I feel. What am I supposed to do, hide my honest feelings? She made me cry. She could’ve told me in a more respectful way and I don’t take that really well.

@LaylaTheTallGirl You have to have better emotional control and express clearly.
LaylaTheTallGirl · 22-25, F
@SW-User I understand that but holding in my feelings never helps.
SW-User
That person should never have treated you that way. Find a different place, they dont deserve your money. Also, i'm sorry for your loss.

@SW-User Thank you so much. It really stinks. I’m an orphan. My mom is gone too

that's because its all about the Money nowadays

It's been my experience that, a root canal is extra money for them and actually has no expectations of lasting. Then you'll have to go back in after it fails. More money more money

@LaylaTheTallGirl I don't understand her point at all. People are living breathing beings. Not cash boxes! Please excuse my language. 😔 but F that lady! She is rude and I would not go anywhere that I was treated less than a deserve.

@Bang5luts I may look for a different dentist. I’m not gonna put up with her behavior.

@LaylaTheTallGirl
and call and report her to the office administrator. You don't deserve to be treated so abrasively especially when you are in such pain. Where is their decency? And compassion?

she was being honest, not rude
@MonaReeves86
Clearly
MonaReeves86 · 36-40, F
precisely @DrawntoaDistance

@MonaReeves86 HELL NO! She was rude. Honesty is one thing but she could have said it in a different way instead of being so blunt. I disagree with you.
