    Abusive and Controlling Environment for a New Dentist

    May 8, 2023 - Dentist in Honolulu, HI
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Heavy marketing for patients which keeps the schedule busy.

    Cons

    -Need to provide 3 months notice if you want to take a day off. They will still deny it, even if they approve it initially. -Offices are run by people who have high school degrees. They will boss you around and tell you how to do your dentistry. Not a good feeling for someone who has spent 8 years of college to be a dentist. -They will hire staff with no experience to assist you. Not a good situation for a new dentist. -Force you to work evenings, nights and do prophies

    Do your research and beware before you decide to work here. There are more diverse companies to work for that pay better in Hawaii.

    Hawaii has 75% people of color and all of this company's leadership is white. People of color treated very badly here and passed over for promotions.

    Hawaii Family Dental Centers Response

    Chief of Staff

    Thank you for your review. I am disappointed to hear about your experience and encourage you to contact us for a detailed conversation so we can learn more from you. You might find it interesting to know that 81% of our leadership team (Operations Managers and Admin Leaders) are people of color. In addition, 91% of the team are female. When making decisions to promote team members, our process includes interviewing candidates and reviewing their performance records before making a final selection. As for pay and benefits, we continue to review our pay scales and benefits packages regularly alongside what is happening within and outside of the dental industry, so that we can remain competitive and sustainable.

    Stay Away from this Company

    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Easy job to get if you have no experience

    Cons

    There is a toxic environment of trying to control dentists, dental hygienists and dental assistants. There are a lot of cliques, high school behavior, passive aggressiveness and unprofessionalism. Most of the doctors and employees are straight out of school or have no experience. You are better off working at Gentle Dental, another group practice or private practice. The pay is very low.
