    The worst dental practice I have ever encountered. I would give a 0/5 if I could…read more My son saw Dr. Haleh Azar for orthodontic care. My husband and I both had dental insurance through our employers, and I paid the full amount upfront. Dr. Azar was supposed to reimburse us for any extra payments she received from our insurance companies, but she never did. She refused to provide a statement of our account balance, so I had to contact both insurance companies myself to find out how much she had been paid. That's when I discovered that Dr. Azar's office had kept $1,177 that should have been returned to us. Even after I went to her office numerous times, presented proof, and requested a refund, she refused. I eventually reported the situation to the Massachusetts Dental Society and the Boston District Dental Society. Only after Dr. Azar received a letter from one of these organizations did the office finally return the money. Beyond this serious issue with handling our funds, I have not even gone into detail about the poor quality of service. The fees she charged were already much higher than the standard rates in our area.

    It sounds like this dentist has some negative old reviews, but Dr. Deng is literally the only…read moredentist I've ever liked in my entire life. He is a wonderful man, really makes you feel at ease, and is very gentle on your teeth - clearly he's skilled with his hands. He also explains to you about what he is seeing, goes over x-rays with you, etc.

The front desk clerk had trouble responding and did not seem to understand what was clearly explained, leading to frustration for the patient. They do not know how to schedule patients. I was asked to come an hour earlier only to be seen after my original appointment time. While I was being attended to, another patient demanded to see the Dr. performing my root canal, in the middle of the root canal. Staff did not know how to calm this patient down so they kept telling the doctor that the patient wanted to see him. It was as if they thought the doctor was going to stop my procedure. I could tell the doctor hadn't read my chart by the questions that were asked. He confirmed it when he realized I was the case another doctor had discussed with him, while drilling my teeth... The dentist and dental assistant clearly did not know each other judging the office gossip being discussed. The root canal went as well as a root canal could go. It took about 3 hours. The filling fell out about 2 weeks later. I need another root canal (different tooth) and would not dare return to this office. I'm going to another endodontist anf my primary dentist is doing my crowns. And I better not have a billing "error" as I have read in reviews and seen in person.
