My son likes going to the Dentist, and that's thanks to the staff at Growing Smiles White Marsh…read more The Staff is so nice and friendly, and we always have a great experience every time we visit. My son enjoys talking with everyone in the office, they definitely make him feel welcomed. At the end of the appointment, my son gets to pick a toy and gets a goodie bag (toothbrush, floss, and toothpaste) which is always the highlight of his day. Growing Smiles White Marsh is a newer location. The rooms where the appointments take place are big, bright, and very clean. The Dentists do a great job caring for my son's teeth and explaining to my son what they did to his teeth during his appointment. Also, the Dentists always make sure to take time to address my questions which is important. So glad to have Growing Smiles.

Once called, my kid has to wait around half an hour before the hygienists get started. That is way too long! The next issue is cancellation.

I have been taking my son to Dr. Shih for since he was a toddler. For the past couple of visits or…read moreso, the lady at the front desk, named Lisa has been completely rude to us, both on the phone and when we arrive at the office. I think she might hate her job! Well today was the last straw with her attitude towards us. I called to make an appointment for my son and her attitude and condescending tone on the phone were completely unacceptable. I honestly have never been spoken to by a receptionist in any office, like I was today by Lisa. We did like Dr. Shih and appreciated the work she has done with my son, but unfortunately if she employs people like Lisa at the front desk, (which is usually where you would want your most friendly, welcoming employees), we cannot continue to come there anymore. We have decided to move on to another dentist...whom I called and spoke to the nicest, sweetest welcoming and accommodating lady. today! First impressions should be the best impressions!!

I absolutely love this office. If you are like me and have a fear of the dentist, this is your new…read moreforever place to be. This establishment runs like a well oiled machine. When you walk in, you are greeted by Autumn, who makes and takes your appointments. And as she has much more to her job than this, I just wanted to point out that she has a wonderful personality and makes you feel super comfortable from the start. I'm very thankful of her because if you don't have somebody who makes you feel comfortable from the start, it's very rare that you make it past the front door. When you go to the back you have Rachel (dental hygienist ) and Dr. Wassif. I sincerely can't say enough about them either. They both instantly make you feel like you're right where you need to be. Rachel is kind and gentle and assists Dr. Wassif with grace. Now, for a dentist, you won't find a better one than Dr. Cindy W. I LOVE the way she explains to me, exactly what is going on with my teeth and what needs to be done then with them in the future. I have a lot of work being done to them. It took me a long time to find someone who made me feel as comfortable as I do when I'm in that seat. She talks to me in a way that no dentist has before. You can tell she genuinely cares. I truly mean it. These women are amazing people!!! I honestly don't know how their office doesn't have a line out the door to be seen. Or maybe it does, Autumn really is that good at her job. Lol But seriously, if you're looking for an office, that is laid-back, very thorough with a scheduling (and making sure that you remember to be there), and a dentist that makes you feel a lot better with your current situation, you need to call them and make an appointment today. I will be a patient for as long as they'll have me. Thanks ladies!! -Kim Aubel

From fillings, to cleanings, to long term care advice, I just cannot say enough great things about the staff here! Laura the secretary, is so sweet, sufficient & accommodating, ALL of the hygienists are super kind, knowledgeable, patient, thorough & personable. They were so patient with my son who was a bit nervous & uncomfortable during his cleaning visit. Terry, the hygienist, explained everything every step of the way to ease his fears & even offered to have him hold the suction which took his mind off things. She was so very sweet & took her time with him. I really love how well she cleaned his teeth & that she didn't seem annoyed by his behavior at all. My son was so excited & proud of himself after he finished. We love Dr. Meyers' contagious laugh & everyone's personality is really pleasant & welcoming. I took all 3 of my sons to the Essex location & everyone was just so comforting. It was a great experience! I HIGHLY recommend this location! They are wonderful!

I was very apprehensive coming to a new practice after about 15 years at my previous until they stopped taking my dental insurance this year. I had my new patient visit with the Dr. and that was pleasant. My next appt was with the Hygientist. What a surprise. My Hygientist was Nicole....my long lost Hygientist that switches practices and we were reconnected. My anxiety was quelled and they have gained another long term patient. This office took care of dental necessities and treatments and kept my smile going perfect.

I have only been here one time…read more I get here and the front waiting lobby was nice. Had a nice spot for the kids to play. Seemed clean. I made the appointment for 8:30 in the morning thinking they couldn't possibly be backed up right after they open. I didn't get out of there until almost 11:00. The back area was dimly lit. The paintings on the wall were nice, but too much. It made it dark and dreary. We sat in the cubicle (whatever you want to call it) for 35 minutes before anyone said a word to us. 35 minutes waiting with a terrified toddler while 2 assistants were in the next one over having personal conversation and playing on their phones and another just leaning up against a wall playing on hers. The assistant was friendly. She came in and brushed his teeth, but to be honest, it wasn't even good. It was like a skim over and pretty pointless. I brush his teeth better at home. But, at least she was friendly because by the time she got in there, I was standing up and gathering coats to walk out and take the loss. We waited another 15 for the dentist. She comes in, glances at his teeth, gives us a quick suggestion and leaves. Maybe said 3 sentences. She wasn't personable at all. Did nothing to ease his fears. I ended up taking him elsewhere and LOVING the new place and so does my son. A friend brings her daughter here and said she is always scared and she has to hold her down and needs laughing gas. Took her to the other place I suggested and she does just fine. Maybe it's the decor. I don't know, but I'll be canceling his future appointment and taking him elsewhere from now on.

Great experience from start to finish. I feel like the doctors could explain more. Other than that…read moreclean office, friendly staff, easy registration, all-around great experience.

EXTREMELY unprofessional…read more we came in today for a SCHEDULED extraction for our toddler who had an injury and broke her tooth. we knew our options and wanted to proceed with the extraction. the dentist was doing everything he could to talk us out of leaving because "he was backed up and his hygienist was behind" he wanted us to wait until our daughter was in pain to come back and asked if we could schedule next week even though he STATED that his professional opinion is that the tooth needs to come out because it's fractured. To which my response was "what will change next week? it's not that you don't think our extraction is necessary, you're pushing us out so you can work with easier and fast patients. that's unethical" we literally were having it out in the office because I'm also a healthcare provider and told him that the way he was treating us was unethical. it wasn't our fault his hygienist was out and that pushing us out when you know she needs the extraction is highly unprofessional. I will be filing a formal complaint with the BBB and I will be filling a complaint against his license. these people prey on people they believe don't know any better. and unfortunately for them, I do.

So my son that has an appointment in less than a month, now needs a new dentist with basically no warning. It had already gone downhill since Dr. Kline retired, but my kids were happy going and just needed regular check up so it was fine. They also screwed up the bill and took over 6 months to fix. And when I suggested a phone call would have been more professional or perhaps seeing the kids they already had scheduled, she basically hung up on me.

I found Dental Designs of Maryland (White Marsh Location) on Google and I am kicking myself that I haven't been here sooner! For context, I had a pretty gnarly dental experience that kept me away for two years (for shame, I know. Don't judge me), so I had a lot of trepidation going back after so long and after such a terrible experience. From the moment I walked through the door and was greeted by the biggest, brightest smiles, I knew I was in the right place. This office exudes warmth, inclusivity, and care. I was immediately taken into the back (I pre-filled my forms, so no wait time at all), given a tour of the office, and was informed every single step of the way to help me set expectations. Not only was Dr. Santos extremely knowledgable but her and her team were also kind and informative - I knew what was going to happen, what was happening, and what next steps would be each step of the way. I've already convinced my husband to make an appointment too! I have a long journey ahead (wisdom teeth removal, braces, and cleanings) and I couldn't feel more at home with this practice. I trust them completely to take great care of me on this journey to reinvent my smile! I'd give them 100 stars if I could!
