I received excellent and reasonably priced treatment for realigning my upper and lower teeth to not hit (and prevent damage!) - and it was always such a nice experience. Good people who really care and really know their stuff. Whether you wind up primarily seeing the fabulous Dr. Mina or Dr. Bob (what a card!), you can't go wrong. Also loved that they can make their own "Invisilign," which is a more approachable option and works all the same. Also, the parking garage at 1160 19th St. NW is super close, very reasonable on Spot Hero, and likewise, super nice folks!! Cannot recommend Kumra enough! (DC-location patient).

I have been a patient at The Dental Group for over 3 years and unfortunately I can no longer…read morerecommend them after my most recent experience. They do not do well at supporting patients with sensory issues or dental anxiety, or conditions like TMJ that make dental visits difficult. With new patients they are kinder, but with every visit I have made they have become less supportive and less accommodating. My last cleaning was extremely unpleasant and I was shamed into not taking breaks over the course of multiple procedures and fittings even though holding my jaw open causes my TMJ to flare. Then there's the high-pressure upselling. For several years, the dentists and hygienists at this practice have been trying to get me to buy a dental-grade night guard out of pocket, even though I had an over-the-counter one I had been happy with. I finally agreed because they told me it would help my gums and that I would face severe consequences if I did not "make the investment." I had to pay $750 (!!!) out of pocket. When the night guard arrived, it was so bulky and uncomfortable that I could not get a good night's sleep in it and I woke in the morning with severe jaw pain on both sides of my jaw. I went back to have it adjusted and suddenly I was being told that having a night guard means sleeping with your mouth open and accepting dry mouth, that jaw pain often gets worse at first, and that I would have to accept some bad sleep in order to become accustomed to the night guard. I cannot stress enough that this was NOT disclosed to me prior to when I made the purchase. Since the practice knew about my sensory and dental anxiety issues, I feel strongly that they should have talked to me about what the night guard would be like before pushing me to buy it. When I explained the above, the practice offered me only a partial refund, which would mean that I spent hundreds of dollars on nothing. I feel my trust was taken advantage of and I would encourage others to look for a different practice.

We met with the patient coordinator, who asked a few questions and then passed that info along to the doctor. He came in and examined my son, then gave us his recommendation and answered our questions. He was very friendly and professional. Then the patient coordinator discussed payment options.

He is patient, kind, professional, and truly cares about his patients. Nina and the other dental assistants are also outstanding. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and consistently provide excellent care. Unfortunately, my experience with the front desk, specifically Tifani Lively, changed my overall impression of the practice. Over time, her professionalism declined, and she repeatedly blurred the line between personal and professional interactions. On one occasion, she used my personal phone number, which was provided for my patient records, to contact me about personal matters unrelated to my treatment. After that, she contacted me several more times about personal matters. I chose not to respond to those communications because I wanted to keep our interactions strictly professional and limited to my care as a patient. I found this repeated contact to be highly inappropriate and a serious violation of my privacy. During another visit, while I was at the front desk scheduling my next appointment as instructed, she began discussing personal matters with me that had nothing to do with my care. This conversation took place during business hours and in front of other patients, making the interaction uncomfortable, unprofessional, and at times somewhat hostile in tone. I was scheduled for a retainer checkup on 8/5/2026 and confirmed my appointment the week before. Then, on 8/3/2026, I received a text message stating that my appointment had been canceled. No explanation was provided, and there was no attempt to reschedule. Given the repeated inappropriate personal contact over the weekend and the hostile nature of our most recent interaction, I am concerned that my appointment may have been canceled for reasons unrelated to my care and without Dr. Schwartz's knowledge. While I cannot confirm that this is what happened, the timing raises legitimate concerns. It is disappointing that the actions of one staff member overshadowed what was otherwise an excellent experience with Dr. Schwartz and the clinical team. I hope the practice takes these concerns seriously and reviews its policies regarding professionalism, patient privacy, and appropriate use of patient information so that no other patient has a similar experience.

However, Penny - his front desk receptionist - is the rudest and most unprofessional person I've ever dealt with at a medical office. After being told I would have to wait 6 months to reschedule a routine cleaning, I said I wanted to speak with Dr. Alexander. She said I could speak with him at lunch. She then told me he was too busy to be able to speak with me and not to come there to speak to him (and sent a rolling eyes emoji). She refuses to answer my phone calls and will only send me text responses (and seems very comfortable talking to me - a patient far before she worked there - in such an unprofessional manner). She specifically said I'm 1 of thousands of patients implying I don't matter. So I guess now I have to find a dentist where I matter no matter how many patients there are.

I'd scared of dentists my whole life until I met Dr. Alexander. I must say, if you are looking for…read morea peaceful dentist visit, this is the place. I had cavities and I never felt scared or judged -- Dr. Alexander made it as pleasant an experience as drilling teeth can be. The staff including receptionists are also very sweet. When getting worked on there are [optional, of course] movie goggles and the movie selection is great! Nothing distracts you from the pain of drilling like watching a movie. Not only that, but you are physically blocked from watching a Novocaine needle being stabbed into your mouth. If you have a phobia of needles, these goggles are pretty neat. Dr. Alexander also practices with a conservatism that not many dentists use nowadays. For example, I was having TERRIBLE tooth pain and thought I may need a root canal (advil around the clock... I could sense my liver being poisoned). Although over half the signs pointed to a classic root canal case, the other half were ambiguous or certain signs were missing. Thus, after 3 visits, two different types of x-rays and various tooth tests, he decided not to do a root canal which I am thankful for because it turns out it was a sinus infection causing the pain. I'm very happy I avoided an unnecessary and painful procedure through a little detective work and caution. Dr. Alexander is also very good when it comes to explanations. He takes the time to explain what's going on in your mouth to you in a way you can understand. If you ask a question about your mouth, you will get an answer that makes sense and evidence to back it up. The equipment is very up-to-date so you get clear pictures of what's going on on the inside to support your questions. Overall, I am very happy with Dr. Alexander and would recommend him.
