If you only ever need routine cleaning I would strongly advise you to stay well away from Dr. Jakhar. Most recently she insisted on placing the crown on an implant rather than letting the professional endodontist who did the implant (and offered to place the crown as well). Regrettably, I let Dr. Jakhar do the crown placement. She ended up stripping the screw and the whole crown slipped up so that crown was not tight and inflammation bred up underneath. Over repeated visits she ignored my statements that there was a problem. "Just keep flossing", but I knew there was a real problem. Found another dentist who had to remove the damaged crown and replace it. Dr. Jakhar denies all responsibility but I've been told by a lawyer that I could prevail if I took the time and effort to pursue it. I now need to pay several thousand more dollars for a replacement crown...from a MUCH better dentist! read more

Be extra cautious about any work that Dr. Jakar recommends. Please get a second opinion. She suggested work for me that had no basis & they kept calling me trying to rush me in for a supposed cavity that never showed up on the x ray. I do really like the dental hygenist Kim. read more

I had my 6 month checkup today and was taken right on time, as always. My hygienist, Kim, did a great job cleaning my teeth and is always a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend this dental practice! read more

Next to impossible to get a real person to answer their phone. After many attempts finally got someone and now my appointment made in August 2024 is scheduled for 3 months from now. Must be a very busy place, need to hire more staff. read more

I went to dental at Hillcrest on South Street so I can get X-rays done because I have 13 cavities embedded in my gums I have no teeth to pull so they have to go in and yank them out due to my mental illness and post-traumatic stress and I am on SSI for this I cannot be awake during this and they said to me well good luck finding an oral surgeon to knock you out better get ready to make 150 calls well I found out from my primary care that it is there problem not mine they were supposed to make the calls and find me someone to take care of now I have a severe infection that's all up in my sinuses in my face and leaking out my eye because they did not what they were supposed to by law read more

I've had terrible experiences with Hillcrest Dental. I received a letter in the mail telling me I had an appointment for November 17 at 9:40am. I took the day off of work and drove here only to find out they had canceled my appointment. I was never notified. Granted the dental care has been good, the quality of service at a for-profit business is horrendous. I would never recommend. read more

I have had an excellent experience at Hillcrest Dental. The staff and the dentists are exceptional. I now trust going to the dentist again, after many years of anxiety!! I highly recommend this practice! read more

They are awful at making appointments. The doctors are great but trying to make an appointment is horrible they change time with out contacting or they tell you it's a quarter past then want you there 15 mins before so you are continually late every time. read more

Very pleased here and highly recommend! Friendly staff and competent dentist. I have had cleanings done and two crowns. It has been very positive experience. read more

Hillcrest Dental is the very best dental care facility I have ever been a patient of, and I have seen a wide enough range of dentists over many decades to know the difference. I came from a very bad dentist who allowed a gum infection to persist long enough that (according to ER personel) it had became potentially life threatening. Came to Hillcrest at the last minute who recognized the problem and treated it correctly and I am very thankful for their professional and vigilant care. Thank you Hillcrest! read more

Their policies are not designed to support their patients. My partner had an appointment as a new patient. He had done an initial visit with no problems, and on the morning of the follow up visit he received a phone call confirming his appointment at 2:30. We showed up at 2:00, fully thirty minutes early, and they had cancelled his appointment and given the time slot to someone else. Evidently somewhere in the thirty pages of initial information there was a clause that said if that phone call were not returned they would do this. He had no history of being late or not showing up, yet they assumed he would not show up. He is disabled and sees many medical professionals, and never have we run into such a policy before. We were turned away at the door. He was having a number of teeth removed in preparation for getting dentures and we had planned the whole day around this, as well as laying in provisions in anticipation of his limited dietary needs over the next few days. This was more than inconvenient, it was unprofessional and showed that they really don't care about their patients, just about filling all the slots to make as much money as possible. In our case they lost three large scale appointments and thousands of dollars in insurance money as we immediately cancelled the rest of his appointments and found another dentist that very afternoon. We can't really speak of the quality of their dentists, because we weren't able to get that far, the administrative policies were so problematic that they drove us out before we could even get started. read more
