Urgent - seeking affordable dentist for urgent care I am a student leaving for an international program in 6 weeks, so I need to get care fast, but I have no idea where to look for services. I have just moved back to Seattle & urgently need to see a dentist. My crown came lose & the tooth below is decaying. I was told I need the tooth treated, a post, and new crown. I need to find a dentist asap that is affordable or can take WA Apple Dental insurance. I've tried UW School of Dentistry, but they have a 6-7 month waiting list and their urgent care won't perform this service.
Any advice on clinics that would take a new patient quickly and have affordable/sliding scale services would be very appreciated.

With insurance it will probably all be about even. But since you are a student, I would try [Neighborcare](https://www.neighborcare.org/) (there's one in Wallingford) or[ SeaMar](http://www.seamar.org/location.php?xloc=41&xser=2&xcty=4&xserloc=26). They would likely adjust your portion of the fee on their sliding scale since you are a student.
Affordable/free skin cancer screening? (No insurance) I did a search for dermatology recommendations on here; that didn't prove too fruitful. There is only one office returned from the AAD site for free skin cancer screenings. I called them and they said that offer was only valid in May.
Anyone have any dermatologist recommendations? Affordability is important but so is the quality of care/concern of the physicians. I have an alarming spot I would like checked out, if only to ease my mind. Thanks for any help.

Neighborcare does free/sliding fee scale services: https://www.neighborcare.org/ And so does Public Health of Seattle and King County: http://www.kingcounty.gov/depts/health/locations.aspx But seriously, apply for apple health. It only takes about 20 minutes.... https://www.wahealthplanfinder.org/_content/Homepage.html
Hi everyone, we're looking for a great Family Medicine Dr (or ARNP) within a few miles of the neighborhood if possible. Do you see someone you'd recommend? Thanks so much!

Well crap...my jaw has been bugging me for a few days now and it's only getting worse. Anybody know of a dentist that takes payments in or near Seattle? I'm worried its my wisdom teeth that haven't been removed starting to move around.
I am in need of a dentist that will take payments or do some work for cheap. Anyone know of someone?
