If I remember right you can get frozen coffee frappe there too. Weird but smart I guess for a dentist.

The guy who runs that practice (at their old building) "fixed" one of my fillings I had done by his former colleague at Fremont Hills Dental. Said there was air in the filling which is why I was having pain. It had the exact same problem afterwards.

That was years ago though so maybe they've gotten better since.

I thought the same thing when I first saw it! There's barely any cars in the parking lot everyday when I drive to MSU.

Yes.

Is it down by the river?

It’s a giant building screaming “WE NEED TO BE AUDITED BY INSURANCE”

There’s tons of stories of people who have been taken advantage of or outright had fraud committed against them by this place. They’re the worst.

They must have not tried to tell you that you had a bunch of phantom cavities needing thousands of dollars of work.

I've never been to this place, but I just looked at their website because I was kind of curious about that. They appear to push subscription dentistry that includes two cleanings and an x-ray for $300/year. Honestly, that's less than my dentist charges. The current rates at my dentist are $139 for a cleaning and $50 for an x-ray. I don't feel the need to get an x-ray every year, but even if I just paid for an x-ray every other year, that would be $303 at my dentist vs. $300 at this place. So, at least to me, the prices seem reasonable. FWIW, my dentist is in a shitty strip mall on Kearney. It was next to a titty bar, but I think that closed.

We call it #jamesriverdentist

Pretty sure around 2:00AM them mouths sprout fangs and go floating out to feast on woodland animals and the elderly.

I’m trying to read between the lines on some of these comments. Are you saying that James River Church owns this dental practice?

I went to have some work done there recently. After a string of countless crook dentists and just plain bad ones over the years, this is the first one where I came out truly pleased. Very nice people. They did the work well, showed me on paper the things I needed done in the future, and how much each would cost. No pressure at all. I highly recommend them!

As someone who lives near here, yea. I hate when the screen is a massive face smiling down on the highway… also most of us around here didn’t really want it but the owners were “told by God to build it there” so ya know that kinda adds to it.

I used to go there and it's honestly amazing. It's definitely extra af

lol for real

They give everyone a free coffee or smoothie after their visit. They have a whole menu of options.

I have a 21 ft camper that I live in unfortunately we would be sharing the same bed but you're more than welcome to stay as long as you want

not nearly as much as the mega-churchs.

With blackjack and hookers.

All i can say is that it's the best dental office i have ever gone to. every single aspect is state of the art.

100% what it is. Connected to JRA.

Edit to add: there are degrees of laundering. One degree is loophole-"legal" through tax deductions and tax-exempted gifts.

A... random....example would be when a church "gifts" large amounts of money to an individual. And individual builds a business with gift. And then "gifts" money back to church. Skirting taxes. And then business owner gets special treatment from charismatic church that worships wealth/"gifts" from god, and business man is then also worshipped as a "good business man." Feeds the narcissism and the wallet.

We need a documentary.

It is creepy. I know "people" behind it. Be very creeped out.

Also- TAX THE CHURCH and prosecute tax fraud.

I definitely had a "WTF" moment when I passed this while driving down to Silver Dollar City.

Also, how does it have so many Google reviews?? It has almost as many reviews as Dickerson Park Zoo, more than Nathanael Greene, about twice as many as Hammons Field or Nakato, and over 3,600 more reviews than my dentist. Is there a water slide in there or something??? Should I have spent the day here instead of driving down to SDC?
