“Wow... The visit was great. Very clean and cozy office space. The check in staff was absolutely amazing and very attentive. The doctor himself that cleaned my teeth was very professional and good at his job. He went over each detail with me about what was going on and also showed me visuals. When it came time to schedule future work including crowns and fillings, they were AMAZING. They talked to me about why each procedure was important and necessary, they showed me visuals or where and how it was going to happen, they gave me all the details I needed to make an informed decision, and they made it apparent that they care about my well being. Dr. Gashparova said “When our patients walk through that door, their well being is our responsibility.” That made all the difference for me. They truly care here. 10/10 would recommend!”

March 14, 2022Rosemary S.Verified patient
Dentist is great but the lady that gives you the breakdowns of the prices of services is rude. I went in for help not for a sermon. She was upset because the surgeon the partner with doesnt take my insurance a tried to run up an outrageous bill. I had to look for my own surgeon. Then she charged me and my insurance for an emergency visit and it wasnt it was a regular appointment that zocdoc said was available. I still recommend the dr just be ready.

Had an appointment for a painful broken tooth and was expecting to be helped but instead was given the run around with them trying to sell me on other procedures. Not that I am against getting other work done but I felt like they saw me as a bag of money rather than a patient. It’s a nice place and I’m sure people love it, but this place is not for me. Thank you for your time though.

It was the worst visit to the stomatologist in my life. The doctor's assistants brushed my teeth with a pain I've never experienced before. When they saw my good insurance, they tried to impose services on me that I didn't need at all. Assistants called me 5 times a day to reschedule or fix something in the apointment. I do not recommend this clinic to anyone who wants to treat their teeth. The assistant made completely inappropriate jokes about my knowledge of the language when I asked her what she was saying to me.

This place is incredibly professional, but more expensive than most dentists. If I could afford to have my fillings and root canal done here I would, but it's about 25% more expensive than similar alternatives.

Over the past 10 years I have seen a lot of dentists that were just trying to get the most money out of me. They were honest here, they took their time and they did an amazing job. I can't even tell that I have a filling.

Dr. Dara is an excellent dentist and communicator. I can tell she cares for her patients. The office has good tech as well -- even a mouth camera to show me the inside / back side of my teeth, which allowed her to explain the benefits of the procedures she recommended, and also visually showed me the improvement after.

November 28, 2016Bernetta L.Verified patient
It was a great experience. The staff there are so nice and make you feel very welcoming. When I came into the office I was received with a smile from the receptionist. The dentist was awesome and explained every step of the procedure they were going to do with my dental work. Now my fear of the dentist has gone away and for sure now I will see the dentist every six months instead letting five years pass by to see a dentist. Plus love !!! They are open on Saturdays and are so flexible with your scedule. High five to this dentist and her staff! Awesome!!!

Gr G was very informative. She explained why the recommended procedures were necessary and in our best interest. She was also very patient and took the time needed to make my elderly Mom comfortable, calm and informed.

I love her staff, they were very warm people and so mindful of how I felt during the x-rays, cleaning, and even paying.
I thought Dr. Dara (her nickname!) seemed a bit cold when she was with me, perhaps it was just an off time. It made me feel bad for not taking perfect care of my teeth, but I probably should feel bad about that. She did go the extra mile for me to teach me how to take care of my teeth ON my teeth (I've had dentists and other doctors use models and they were never nearly as helpful) and I appreciated that so much. In fact, the staff that I interacted with (Francis and Suki -- sorry if I misspelled your names!) definitely went above and beyond for me and I appreciate it so, so much.
The office also has extra oral specialists come in, such as wisdom teeth extractions and orthodontists to make it easy for their patients. I'll be coming back in the future :)

Pleasantly surprised with the entire staff. Very knowledgeable, friendly and patient. Best part is I had some major work done and the entire procedure was virtually painless. Dr. Raz is a gift from the gods! Appointment are always easy and they have days they work late hours if you have a hectic schedule. I look forward to my next visit.
