re: updated - anyone friends with the girl claiming to be abused by DR Ripple

we had a wonderful pediatric dentist that I always used and was always in the room. When my husband was activated military we had to change dentists. First appointment with Dr. Ripple they try this you can't go back bullshite with my two little girls (this was never said on the phone when I made appointment). I said absolutely not we are leaving now and not paying for the visit or a cancellation fee or anything. They tried the kids act better without parents around. I said nope we can try with me in the room and see what happens. They allowed me to go back with them and they had cleanings. I never returned and paid cash at the other dentist until deployment was over and we were back on our regular insurance. I was always super creeped out by the entire experience. And it has been roughly 20 years since it happened. And I never even remotely came close to forgetting how freaked out I was.
