Don't go see Dr. (if you can call him that) Kirk Kimmerling unless you enjoy pain and being laughed at. I went to Dr. Kimmerling's office to see about having a tooth pulled. This was about 4:00 in the afternoon and the receptionist said there was a good chance he could do it right away, That should have been a clue that although he's been there a lot of years (I believe they said 10) he must not be able to keep many patients. I know he doesn't if he treats them like he did me. He pulled my tooth and decided not to give me any pain medication since I told them I could not have Ibuprofen or Aspirin due to stomach problems. I really wasn't worried about it I really didn't expect a lot of pain but I was wrong. About an hour after I got home it started hurting and swelling and just got worse and worse. I called Dr. Kimmerling who told me to come to his office the next day. I did and was taken back to a chair and he came in laughing at me shouting Well you had a tooth pulled yesterday of course your going to have pain ha ha! I felt stupid and embarrassed in front of several nurses and my mother. I said its swollen and it hurts a lot he looked at it and said it was infected. Then I told him it wasn't funny that it hurt so much I couldn't sleep. He said when I called him I had slurred my words, and I told him I had the gauze in my mouth he had given me. He ask if I wanted something for pain, I said yes and he left the room and did not return, I would not go back to see him if he were the last dentist on earth. His lack of caring or compassion is unprofessional and has certainly lost him mine and my families business, not to mention a neighbor who we were about to refer to him. I will not ever go to see him again.
