We congratulate you on being a savvy healthcare “shopper” for yourself or a family member. By exploring mobile dentistry services at Royal Dental Practice in West Hills, Los Angeles, California, you are doing the right thing for the health and well-being of yourself and your loved ones.
Additionally, if you are on the fence about moving forward with “house call” dentistry due to the perceived costs, we encourage you to get familiar with both the considerable value and the comparative savings associated with partnering with our traveling dentist, Dr. Roya Shoffet, and her team of highly qualified, on-the-go dental professionals.
In our neck of the woods, Los Angeles County, the government reports that “non-emergency” ambulance transport with a “basic” level of life support was billed at $2,024 as of July 2023. This rate accounts for equipment and personnel.
However, the costs also go up tremendously based on the specific needs of the patient and the nature of the call (whether or not it is characterized as “emergent” or an “emergency”). For non-emergency calls with advanced life support capabilities, the cost soared to more than $3,000. Emergency calls were also billed accordingly. This rate also does not account for mileage, assessed at $28 per mile.
Additional fees assessed for transportation services included:
At Royal Dental Practice, we have eliminated these transportation-related fees and potentially exorbitant “nickel and diming.”
Our talented and patient dentist, Dr. Shoffet, and her skilled staff come to you. They provide in-home care for you or another family member with mobility and other limitations or barriers to getting the exceptional oral care you/they need and deserve.
Our fees for onsite care are very competitive, especially considering the extremely rare and high-value nature of these services. When was the last time you heard about a doctor –any doctor — making house calls? In West Hills/Los Angeles, thanks to Dr. Shoffet, this “old-fashioned” concept is actually alive and well in modern times and with advanced expertise and equipment.
We can perform many preventative, general, and even cosmetic and restorative procedures at our patients’ bedside. The benefits of this service are seemingly priceless and are related to the following considerations:
Dr. Shoffet not only has the passion to care for these patients. But she has also developed considerable niche expertise and experience in providing them with high-quality, unhurried, and highly personalized care, all from the comfort of their homes or the facilities they now call “home.” And indeed, many services can be performed at the bedside.
As needed, we may recommend transport to our office. Here again, we provide competitively-priced and trusted medical transportation for those treatments that are best performed at Royal Dental Practice of West Hills, Los Angeles, California.
All recommendations are, of course, made in the patient’s best interests. Call (818) 334-6655 to request your in-house visit today.
