Verified patient
Everything was great! Painless procedure! Dr. Al-Karagholi was very receptive to my preferences and the office and staff were wonderful. I’d definitely recommend. I’m a practicing oral surgeon in the area so choosing to be treated here should say quite a bit.

I wish I had been given a little more warning as to what would be happening. It was my first time have fillings done, and I was a little anxious.
Verified patient
Excellent staff overall - super nice. Great appointment reminder system. Doctor knows what he is doing -- explains everything and provides candid outlook on options. Pricing is quite reasonable for a dentist this experienced. Finally, being in Merrifield makes it easy to find and park... or walk for me since I live here.

Always a professional encounter. Both Dr. Al-Karagholi and his staff are friendly and competent. The office is so warm and inviting and the personal flat-screen TVs over each chair is a wonderful idea. Dr. Al-Karagholi always ensures the comfort of the patient (numbness) for any procedure. I had a filling done today it looks flawless and the procedure was painless. Amazing!!

Very professionally run office. Everyone is so friendly and extremely capable of doing their job! Dr. Al-Karagholi manner is excellent, after a friendly greeting he gets right to work and his work is excellent! He shows concern about your overall health and makes sure you understand your treatment plan and when your coming in next and for what. I've been completely impressed with their office since my first visit and wouldn't hesitate recommending to all!
Verified patient
I had been to the office for a cleaning and am a relatively new patient. I called this morning for an appointment today because I chipped a tooth last night and am going out of town tomorrow. The receptionist understood my immediate Ned and, even tho they were fully booked, they fit me in. Problem solved. I highly recommend this office and the staff. All very pleasant and professional.
Verified patient
Awesome experience!
Verified patient
Dr.Al-Karagholi is wonderful! The office is always clean and the staff is great. I actually like going to the dentist but the staff is stellar in making it a great experience. Even I have moved out of the area and am no longer working just down the street...It is worth the trek back to Merrifield to see him. Painless treatment and right on point. He clearly outlined my options for cosmetic treatment,and I cannot recommend him enough.
A great dentist with such a nice bedside manner. Tha staff is so polite and the offices are warm and inviting. The first place I've ever been with adjustable flat screen TVs over each dental chair for the patients. What a great idea! I have found the best dentist and office for me!
Verified patient
We all have apprehension about our first visit to a new Dentist. I was put completely at ease with a warm greeting, filled out some standard paperwork and then escorted to my chair. The Hygienist was very pleasant and professional. After X-rays the doctor came in and spent ample time with me explaining his proposed treatment plan. He did the cleaning and the Hygienist followed up with the brush and floss. Most times I have visited a dentist the Hygienist does the cleaning. I think Dr Al-Karagholi may have done mine to see more about what my treatment needs are beyond what he could see in my X-rays. The cleaning was a hands on approach for his assessment. I feel much better after visiting the dentist, because my teeth are super clean now and the two employees and Dr. Al-Karagholi were so pleasant and professional I can't wait to go back! How often can one say that about a dental visit? I really couldn't have been more pleased with my visit.
Verified patient
I have had a lot of experience with dentists as I didn't get the proper preventative care as a child. That said, I'm in the dentist's office a lot and Merry Field Smile is the best dentist office I have ever visited. Dr. Mustafa is extremely thorough and clear on what he is doing every step of the way. I went to him with many problems on my teeth and it was all taken care of. The staff is very friendly and professional. The office is massive with a really good layout to facilitate easy entry, checkout and departure. They pick up your phone calls, get back to you with information regarding any questions quickly. I am recommend Dr. Mustafa to friends/family. So happy to have found a place that I can get my teeth fixed and cleaned by someone gentle!
indeed he is the best among TOP VIRGINIA Dentists .,Top coalfield , professional, caring and compassionate. Nothing in the world could reward him for his tireless efforts , God bless him.

Very updated and each patient has their own tv, and they make you as comfortable as possible. I got 2 fillings and both are great.
This was my first dentist appointment in (gasp) 8 years, but Dr. Al-karagholi and his staff were wonderful! I immediately scheduled my next checkup in 6 months. This is my new dentist. Highly recommended!
Verified patient
Always very good and professional. Painless for the most part, but explains when there needs to be a bit of discomfort. Best dentist I have ever been to.
I showed up as the last patient of the day, my insurance was wonky so they couldn't get to me until after closing, and they had to give me an emergency root canal. They were kind, patient, amazingly personal, and helpful even when I was exasperated and teary. I love them.
Verified patient
I don't like going to any dentist's office . However. I was very pleased with the whole experience. Very nice calming atmosphere there is even a TV screen above the patient's chair. I loved it! It helped to distract me from my dentist phobia.
The office is well-appointed, and the staff and professionals all seemed friendly. The exam rooms have indirect lights and TVs on the ceiling, so it's a little less unpleasant to get work done there than at other places.
Very friendly and professional. You feel very well taken care of and he is definitely painless as possible. I recommend him highly. He will take away the angst of the waiting room and the entire dentist-visit ordeal.
Dr. Al is amazing! His office is gorgeous, everything is state-of-the-are and brand new. He really takes the time to make you feel comfortable & his staff is friendly, courteous, & helpful.
