    Esther H.

    Hi! I'm a model. My online portfolio is at www.esther.com. I'm writing this review for Dr. Cho's office because I have a dental appointment coming up. And do you know how I feel? Calm, relaxed, and looking forward to it! This dental office is not your average dental experience. First of all, when you walk into Dr's Cho's office, you're greeted by the ever beautiful, bright and vivacious Lorena (who looks like she's won "Miss Universe"). She is the office manager and runs the place with almost a militant accuracy, concise, and professional. Then you'll meet Yina who handles us patients with kindness and empathy. When you're feeling nervous about getting in "the chair" your fears are dashed away by Dr. Cho's assistant, Bemmy who comes to make you feel comfortable and heard. By the time you see Dr. Cho you are quite relaxed in his state of the art dental office, run by supportive and nurturing professional women. And Dr. Cho is a highly skilled and talented dentist. He is gentle yet effective. I also really appreciate how he takes the time to really listen and connect with you. Other dentists I've been to before just treat you like a number. My dental hygienist is Danielle and she is so good, so thorough. We often joke about our mutual OCD and I can tell she feels as good as I do after a good cleaning. I highly recommend Dr. Cho's office to anyone who needs to see a dentist but who is normally apprehensive about going. This is NOT your average dental office. They go above and beyond to make YOU feel relaxed, calm, and assured that empathetic professionals are on your side and will take care of you. Thanks Dr. Cho and team for my smile!

    I really wanted to love this place. I was excited to finally find a local dentist through my…read moreinsurance, but the experience left a bad taste in my mouth--literally and figuratively. From the moment I sat down, it felt like the goal wasn't to help me, it was to upsell me. A dental hygienist came in and strongly pushed an extremely expensive deep cleaning treatment, claiming I had gum disease and bone loss--despite no other dentist ever telling me this before. The plan involved lasers and multiple stages of treatment totaling around $2,200--and that was with my two insurance policies on file. I came in to address an painful bump on my palate and potentially a failing crown, but it seemed like unless I paid heavily out of pocket, they couldn't or wouldn't move forward. I only allowed them to do imaging and the exam. The rest felt like a sales pitch. And that's not why I go to a dentist. The doctor I saw (Dr. Ekta) told me that a root canal I had done at another office was "botched" and needed to be redone--which is fine, that's her professional opinion. But when I asked if she could write a brief statement or letter so I could appeal the insurance claim, she refused. To me, that's a red flag. If you're confident enough in your diagnosis to tell me I need to redo a major dental procedure, you should be confident enough to put that in writing to support your patient. I had to use her chart notes, which were vague at best. The only positive part of my visit was the x-ray technician--she had a great personality and made me feel comfortable during that part of the process. Props to her. But overall, the practice feels profit-driven, not patient-focused. Between the aggressive upselling, the lack of support with my insurance, and the general vibe of "pay big or get nothing," I won't be returning. And if you're thinking of coming here--read the reviews first.

    We started our service here over 10 years ago with our oldest son. His teeth turned out perfect. 2…read morephases and even got a discount on phase 2 since insurance maxed out on phase one. Fast forward to our youngest, competed phase 1 no real issues. We did have 2 different doctors but hey it happens. Same thing. Insurance maxed out on phase one but this time no discount on phase 2 but the person handling the claims told me the insurance would pay. Even though I told her it's already been maxed out. I was reassured that want the case and even if it was denied they would never charge me the $1500. We proceeded with the treatment under the impression we had the fee sorted out. In the meantime we weee back in office at least once a week in between appointments for broken bracket only to find out I had an outstanding balance and a fee change yup you guessed it. The $1500 the insurance didn't pay. Oh and we are now on our 3rd doctor a dozen fixed brackets $1500 increase in the cost of the braces I am pretty furious at this point and we decided to just stop using them. So I emailed since ortho is only once a week. This sucks because when brackets break you have to wait for the following week to get them fixed so I'm in my sones mouth the wire cutters to keep is cheeks from bleeding. And no they won't see you outside of office hours for ortho. Fast forward 2 weeks after I expressed my desire to close out for services rendered called and was told now I have to pay a other process fee for services on top of any balance due for work not covered under what I have already paid. On top of all this the were only willing to forgive 50% for the $1500 non payment. Be very weary of this place. Shady billing and people who just don't seem to really know what they are doing properly. Still 2 weeks again and I still haven't hear anything and they scheduled me for an appointment even after I expressed very adamantly we do not want their services any longer. Come to find out the spacers put on our son's lower jaw has skewed his teeth enough to need reverse correction. This makes me wonder if I should seek legal advice. Dr Dalton is such a nice person it's a shame his practice is being run into the ground. I am not one for bad reviews but protect your Children's teeth research your services and practice due diligence. It's worth the extra time and money to find a doctor committed to your children's oral health.

    My second review for Dr. McGrady and her wonderful staff. My 23yo cognitively impaired and autistic…read moreson can no longer be seen in a hospital setting for his dental procedures. His whole life, we have had to have him under general anesthesia I'm rider to get any and all dental done: day, cleanings, fillings, etc.. because of his sensory issues and flight/fight fears. In the past year, McGrady has been the first and only dentist who has managed to do cleanings in her office, winning my son's trust with her patient, calm and non-condescending manner. Today, she managed to have two cavities filled, without general anesthesia, in her office --- and my son did wonderfully. They are true miracle workers and I'm forever grateful!!

    Dr McGrady was so calm, patient, and kind to my son & I. My son is 1.5 years old, and the visit…read morewas his 1st dental visit. I was having trouble getting my son to let me brush his teeth, or getting him to try himself. Dr McGrady was able to keep my son calm in the chair and remove the buildup on his molar. She gave me a lot of great advice that quickly led my son to becoming a willing & sometimes even happy participant in the brushing of his teeth 2 times a day! She also spent extra time sending me info on different toothpastes & ingredients that I was worried about due to him having bad reactions to a popular ingredient. We will definitely be returning here for my son's next appointment in 6 months!
