“Have visited the dental clinic multiple times. Some of the attendees are really good and help you answer your questions with full details. While some of them just get the minimal required task done. ”

“She was kind, efficient, careful and not expensive. It took more than an hour and she was with me the entire time. Extractions are not easy, but she handled it very well with NO pain!”

I am in the process of looking for a location for my dental care. The young man who helped me was very nice, helpful, attentive to my issues. This was the first day and I hope my next visit is just as good. At this point in time I would recommend this office, even though some of the reviews weren’t so kind.

I have sensitive teeth and it is always painful to do cleaning, but Munira did everything just great. I'm definitely staying there as a patient

The staff was super friendly. She had assistants who were very useful and took care of me before she began my clean. She explained everything to me while showing me pictures of my teeth and now things needed to be treated. I'm so glad I came here.

Awesome experience overall! Staff is friendly, Doctor listened to all my concerns/questions with a lot of patience and answered them all very clearly! i would not go to any other Dentist except StarBrite! great facility, amazing doctor and best staff you can ask for in a doctor's office!
March 18, 2013Arvind M.Verified patient
I think we found our dentist for life!! The office staff is very friendly and willing to help above and beyond their responsibilities! The Nurse and the doctor very friendly and made me feel at home, very relaxed and laid back. Answered all my questions and concerns, explained everything crystal clear!! The best doctor's appointment i had so far! Only thing i didn't like about the waiting area was lack of reading material or means to get any magazine while waiting. We are definitely going back here and we will stick with this facility even if we change our insurance provider!! The Doctor much younger and prettier in-person than the profile picture on ZocDoc. @ZocDoc Team please change her picture and update it to a more recent one!

Very prompt & friendly

She was very informative and was very knowledgeable about my problem.
Only thing is, I would prefer the Dr. stand in front of me when speaking to me or consulting with me. Speaking to me from behind me, so that I have to turn around puts me in a subservient position. She needs to develop some manners about speaking up to the people who come to chose her for their work. I don't know if she was afraid of me or there is a cultural thing about not wanting to be in front of a male patient? I just don't get it! I felt that I was treated rudely because of this. Otherwise; I like her as a person and a doctor.
