Surgeons - Westminster, CO

"did a great job on removing a mole on my face, it was a very difficult spot (visible and large) but he did a fantastic job and 3 weeks later it's healing nicely and already hard to tell that had major surgery on my cheek"

"I was scheduled to have my 2 wisdom teeth removed today 8/16/23. I have medicade, I was told by David Whiting and his office at comfort dental that they accepted medicade. I called medicade and asked if I was covered for "conscious sedation" which David's office was trying to charge me to pay out of pocket for over $200. I was told by medicade that I am 100% covered for this type of sedation as well as the entire bill for my surgery. I told the billing lady at comfort dental to please bill my insurance as I was not going to pay out of pocket for something I am covered by. I took two days off of work to get this surgery done. I was told that they cannot perform my surgery until my bill was paid. I called medicade again and they told me that the dentist office was in the wrong. David Whiting told me he would not perform my scheduled surgery due to me not paying this bill. I told him to send the bill ot medicade, which takes months for them to pay. However kept telling me they do not pay for the "conscious sedation" which they 100% DO PAY for. I am now out of money from taking 2 days off work, only to find out I need to choose another dentist who isn't illegally charging patients for procedures that are covered by insurance. David W was also over 45 mins late today, August 16th ,2023. There were at least 3 patients before me scheduled for 8am surgeries to remove wisdom teeth and they had to be sedated too. They were brought back before my appt at 8:30am. David was not at the office on time as I was unable to speak to him because he was "running late". So, on top of this office trying to illegally collect payment that I did not have to pay, they were putting patients under anesthesia while the doctor wasn't even present in the office. If my surgery would have gone through, they were not getting started until an hour after my scheduled appointment. This man needs to lose his license for stealing patients money and not billing insurance. As well as making patients wait over an hour while under anesthesia and not being present for surgeries he scheduled. Here is my claim ref that his office sent to medicade which will 100% show that my insurance was covering the ENTIRE bill and that David telling me I had to pay out of pocket in order to get my surgery was complete FRAUD.

"Dr. William John Ciccone II has a letter of admonition in his file at Colorado's Department of Regulatory Agency (DR.0037579) for beginning an operation on the wrong knee. Numerous reviews at Google and elsewhere indicate he is an uncaring and arrogant person, who regularly dismisses the concerns of his patients. There are lots of better doctors in Colorado who DO NOT have a malpractice settlement on file against them."
