He discusses what work you may need in the future when you are done, with no pressure to have it done. His surgery is clean and he calls you to remind you of your appointments.

Let's be real: not many people get excited about going to the dentist. Like many others, I often…read morefeel a bit of "chair anxiety," especially being pain-sensitive. However, after two visits for a veneer replacement, I can honestly say this office has completely redefined the experience for me. From the moment you walk in, you notice how efficient the operation is. The staff is incredibly attentive and well-mannered, treating every patient with genuine respect. One thing that really impressed me was their use of radios to coordinate. It allows them to manage their workload quietly and quickly, ensuring I was never left waiting or wondering what was next. It's seamless, modern, and highly efficient. What truly sets this team apart is how they handle the "human" side of dentistry. They do a terrific job of explaining every single step of the procedure. There are no surprises, which is a huge relief. If you are nervous or sensitive to pain, this is the place for you. They don't just make you feel "comfortable"--they make you feel important and valued (and pain free!!) My veneer replacement looks phenomenal. The attention to detail is evident during the temp and final result. These have been the two easiest and most enjoyable dental visits I've ever had. If you're looking for a team that combines skill with a truly patient-centered atmosphere, this is the place. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

A+ Service -- I'll Never Go Anywhere Else…read more I want to give a heartfelt thank you to the incredible team at Charles County Surgical Arts -- you've officially changed how I view dental procedures. I came here with a deep fear of dental work due to a traumatic extraction years ago. My primary dentist, who knows how serious my phobia is, referred me straight to Dr. McElveen and his team -- and I'm so glad they did. From start to finish, this place has been nothing short of elite-level care. My consultation was smooth, thoughtful, and respectful. Dr. McElveen walked me through the best sedation option for my needs, and every step afterward was handled with professionalism and kindness. Special shoutouts: * Nurse Nicole made me feel cared for from beginning to end. * Trinity at the front desk was warm, welcoming, and kept everything moving smoothly. * And every other young lady who helped behind the scenes -- I noticed your professionalism and calm presence. Thank you. The day of my procedure? Flawless. I arrived on time, was taken back quickly, and before I knew it -- it was over. My husband was able to pull up to the side entrance (which looked like it used to be a drive-thru bank) and they wheeled me out straight to the car. Talk about first-class service. That kind of care doesn't usually happen at a dentist's office, but here it felt like I was being treated like family... or a VIP. While my husband waited, there was coffee and water available in the lobby -- a small touch that makes a big difference. He even commented on how comfortable the space was. Now for two helpful suggestions -- not complaints, just tips to improve an already excellent experience: 1. Blankets: The office was chilly (as most medical centers are), but there were no blankets available that morning. I was in short sleeves and could've used one while waiting. I understand they were being laundered, but I recommend keeping a few ready earlier in the day, especially for anxious patients like me. 2. Acrylic Nails Tip: If you're getting sedation, ladies -- consider clipping your pointer finger acrylic nail or leaving one off. The oxygen monitor has to clamp on that finger, and I didn't realize that until afterward. It'll save discomfort and make things easier for the team. Even with that, they were so attentive. My blood pressure was elevated due to nerves, and they monitored it carefully. Dr. McElveen made sure I was fully stabilized before even starting. That level of care shows integrity. And the follow-up? Exceptional. * I got a text the same evening. * I received TWO phone calls the next morning to check on me. That kind of check-in is rare -- and incredibly appreciated. If I ever need another tooth extraction, implant, or sedation-based dental procedure, I will only trust Charles County Surgical Arts. Thank you all for treating me with care, dignity, and excellence. This is how patient-centered healthcare should be done. With deep appreciation, Please check out my prior review of my consultation

My two experiences with this doctor was very uncomfortable. The initial appointment and the actual…read moreday to get my wisdom tooth pulled, Dr. Michael Choi shows a great deal of irritation in his face and body language. He's very short and irritable with his responses. Sometimes, he just nods his head yes or no due to him being so annoyed. Also, this was my very first time having any surgery in my entire life! I had NO clue how this would go. Dr. Michael Choi was not vocal at all during the procedure to make me feel comfortable. For an example, I did not know when I would get stuck with a needle to be numb, which needle would hurt more than the other, when a tooth has been removed and when we were moving on to the next. The only thing he was vocal about was when he needed me to "turn my head to the left." The amount of tension in the room from his irritable face expressions and body language made me and in my opinion, his assistants very uncomfortable and feel like a burden during a extremely scary and stressful time for me as a first time surgery patient. The second Doctor Michael Choi stepped back, I did not know we were finished. I asked him "are we done?" He did not vocally tell me yes like he never vocally responds, all he did was nod his head. He asked if I had any questions then quickly exited the room. I would never recommend anyone especially if it's their first time to Doctor Michael Choi. It was an extremely difficult and heart aching experience with him as my doctor on top of already being extremely nervous ALL MONTH and never having any kind of surgery AT ALL in my entire life. I pray whatever he has going on in his personal life does not continue to fall over in his place of profession. That will only cause somebody else going further uncomfortable and like a burden the same that it made me. Thanks
