My three year old brushed his own teeth for $127 and now i still have to start from scratch

I took my three year old to Dr. John Lee. When setting up the appointment Dr. Lee's receptionist asked the age of my son and I told her he was three as well as the fact that I thought he had a cavity. I had my appointment and Dr. Lee greeted me and my son.
He had his assistant "clean" my son's teeth. I say "clean" because that consisted of her giving my three year old a toothbrush and having him clean his teeth himself. Then Dr. Llee came in and counted his teeth verifying that he did have a cavity in the spot I already told him he had. Dr. Lee then told me that he could not work on my son due to his age and he would refer me to his "friend" another peds dentist. I asked Dr. Lee if he would just be getting a filling at the other dentist office because I have no dental insurance and couldn't offered alot of vists. Dr/Lee said yes only fillings wil be done there and my son would remain his patient. This visit cost $127.
Today I call his "friend" to learn that I would have to pay again for the initial visit and examine again because dentists need to form a relationship with their patients. As I explained to the other dentist what Dr. Lee had me believe she said that is not standard procedure and she didn't know why Dr. Lee would even examine my son in the first place if he knew there would be no follow up visit with him. Not only did this dentist office say that so did 2 other offices i called.
Dr. Lee did an unnecessary examine for my child when he already knew that he was not going to have my son as a patient. I spent $127 for my son to brush his own teeth and now I have to come up with more money for another dentist to do the same thing Dr. Lee did prior to filling my son's cavities.
Mother's if you don't want to get ripped off DON'T COME HERE!!! I'm already preparing my letter for the attorney general to file an official complaint of fraud. Dr. Lee should have been honest enough to say that my son was to young for him to treat and referred me immediately instead of trying to squeeze out of me what he could. If I could give less than a star I would.
