Verified patient

Verified patient
Thank you
Verified patient
Honestly awful experience. It took three hours for a simple checkup, it did not appear to be very busy. Please avoid if you value you’re time at all. From what I heard from other patients there this is the norm.
This dentist was amazing! I needed an emergency root canal and I was able to receive is same day. The entire team was so nice.
Verified patient
Receptionist was rude and didn’t seem to know what she was doing. Waited an hour to have my teeth “cleaned”. Crowded office. Wouldn’t recommend if you value your time.
Fast, friendly, and efficient, I got my cleaning out of the way and a follow-up scheduled before even I expected to. Would recommend.
Verified patient
The staff was very professional.
The office was great and called to clear up any issues with my insurance. The experience overall was good but my husband had to wait a very long time for his appointment (over an hour) which was my only gripe at the place.
Verified patient
The wait was ridiculous and the waiting area was practically empty. They have someone at the end of the visit rushing you to do the survey. The guy wanted to do the survey for me and I told him no thank you. The cleaning was not good at all. I do not recommend them at all. I live in the area and wanted something closer. However, I’ll stick to my dentist at city smiles which is much better and worth the travel and wait.

Extremely rough cleaning, but very nice staff
Verified patient
First appointment I waited an hour and was never seen. Second appointment I was there for two hours, the dentist I saw was nice but the hygienist was a nightmare. I got up and left 5 minutes into the cleaning.
Interesting travel stories.
Verified patient
He and his staff were completely unprepared. How do you not look at my X-rays and tell me what I “might” need? Unacceptable. We have been debating the cost for a month although my insurance company gave me the fee schedule and cost. I was called to schedule this appointment and the authorization hadn’t arrived so I waited 40 minutes for nothing. No apology for there lack of professionalism. I will not return and suggest you don’t go. Ever.
Verified patient
I had an appointment for 10am and when I got there, there were at least 15 people there before me with 9am and 10am appointments. I tried to reschedule for a time outside of work and they didn't have availability for two months.
Verified patient
Really nice staff and Dr. Aknouk was extremely kind and helpful. I have a big fear of the dentist and he and his staff couldn’t have been nicer. Though the wait was long, the kindness of the staff made up for it.
Verified patient
9 am appointment (first of the day); office didn't open until 9:15 am, wasn't seen until 10:10 am. Dentist spent less than 10 minutes cleaning and examining my teeth. Water and polish were all over my face. Won't be back.
The office & everyone in it was very nice, however, my paperwork, once again, did not make it to the office from Zocdoc. Honestly, I do not fault the office because this has happened way too many times with Zocdoc.
Verified patient
