They were very kind when it was necessary for my mom to have dental work done. She is a senior citizen and they treated her as if she could have been one of their parents. They treated her with respect and dignity. The dentist was very personable, she talks to her patients and seems willing to explain with details how she can solve whatever issues that comes up. The whole staff was very helpful. My only complaint is that I traveled, found parking and found out that there was a very high copayment. If they had communicated this information before we arrived there would not have been a need to reschedule. That's the only reason I didn't give them five stars. Parking can be challenging and a bit confusing in the area because of the signage. The neighborhood is changing , on one side of the street you can find a corner store that's been around forever and in less than a block a Starbucks. High rise apartments and liquor stores are sharing the same block. I hate dentist by nature but this office is okay.

Like a chore, maybe a little intimidating, definitely not something you look forward to. Well, let me tell you, I actually found myself leaving with a big smile, and I'm still trying to process that! This isn't your average, run-of-the-mill dental office where you just feel like another number. From the very first contact, it was clear this place operates differently. When I called to book my appointment, Chanel was incredibly understanding and truly went the extra mile to find a time that worked perfectly for me. You could tell she genuinely cared about making things as easy as possible, which immediately set a positive tone. Stepping into the office, the atmosphere was a breath of fresh air. No bland waiting rooms or soul-numbing TV screens here! Instead, everyone was so welcoming and attentive, making me feel comfortable right away. Then there's Dynay, who handled my X-rays. She was just so gentle and reassuring, explaining everything in a calm, soft voice. It really made a potentially awkward part of the visit surprisingly easy. And Dr. Victor? He was fantastic. He really listened to what I wanted and took the time to discuss all the different options available, making sure we landed on a plan that fit my needs perfectly. It felt like a true partnership in my dental care. Of course, the financial side can always be a bit murky, right? But Andrea in billing is an absolute star! She broke down all the costs, explained my insurance coverage crystal clear, and even walked me through various payment options without missing a beat. It was so refreshing to have everything laid out so transparently. Honestly, when it comes to something as personal as dental care, feeling comfortable and cared for is everything. This team made me feel like part of a family. I truly feel like I've hit the jackpot finding this place, and I couldn't be happier with my entire experience! Happy Thanksgiving

He did this in the manner it should have been done from the beginning. Unfortunately, he agreed I shouldn't come back because his front desk staff attitude is bad and afraid if I come back in person there may be some physical altercation, which is scary because why would it get physical if you hire professional staff? That was a super weird comment. .................................................................................................................................. DO NOT patronize this establishment. The receptionist Lazandria or a name very similar is very rude. She is always the lady that answers the phone with the DC accent. She has been rude since my first appointment. Additionally, when contacting them about a follow-up, the receptionist hung up in my face claiming the dental office on the other line was calling about me, when I told her there is no way this could be true, she hung up anyway. She knew she was wrong because she called back and said, "I'm sorry they weren't calling about you, it was another patient and I apologize for being so rude". The fact you have to call back and acknowledge you can't keep you attitude in check lets me know this dentist does not care about who he hires and how they treat his customers. She was also very nasty when corresponding with them about my referral to a specialist. She told me it was not their fault that they may not be in network when they refer out to specialists. This is after when I called and asked how they refer to specialists, and she said they refer to specialists based on my insurance. She realized there was a problem and tried to walk back on what she initially said. You ARE NOT SAFE with them. Anyone that can hire staff that will be so reckless with your care is not a good establishment. This woman hung up in my face and proceeded to yell at me on the phone when she started changing her story after saying they referred me based on my insurance. They take no responsibility. Anyone that cares about their money and wants a confident health care team that WORKS TOGETHER, this is not the place for you. If this comment is removed, I will repost. Today is 8-9-2022.

From my brief appointment with her yesterday, I could tell that she's the kind of medical practitioner that makes you want to become a long time patient. A solid 5 star dental professional. Unfortunately, my experience with the front desk personnel left much to be desired. LaShandra gave me the feeling that she didn't want to be bothered with me. The tone in which she spoke to me on the phone before I ever made it into the office was curt, but then when I finally came in the office, I felt that her tone was even more demeaning. The whole time she spoke with me, she'd never make any eye contact. I'm hard of hearing and wear hearing aids and trying to hear when people have a mask on is very difficult and she seemed to not want to repeat anything and that she simply didn't have time. (Mind you, there's no one else in the waiting area, nor is the phone ringing during this time which I would've understood if she couldn't answer my questions at the moment due to other office obligations). Finally I asked her to give me a second to turn on my mic (I have a mic that connects directly to my hearing aids via Bluetooth to help me hear better. The last question (about insurance) I started to try and ask her before going into the room with the doctor, I was stopped abruptly by her saying that it was time to see the doctor so I guess that was her way of not answering the question. Growing up, my family didn't have a healthy dental routine of seeing dentists. As an adult, I'm dealing with the consequences of that and trying to create healthier dental habits moving forward. I was beyond excited to come to Capitol Family Dental since it's in my neighborhood and had so many phenomenal reviews. I had even convinced my husband to give them a shot potentially leaving his normal dentist and hygienist that he's been going to for 10+ years since Capitol Family Dentistry is in the neighborhood. But unfortunately, my experience speaking with LaShandra multiple times over the phone before I came in for my first appointment coupled with my in-person experience turned me off a bit. Moreover, when I'd ask questions, she'd make assumptions that she knew the reason behind my question and answered based on what she thought I needed to know instead of just answering my question which made the communication even more tense (not to mention, leaving me without the information I was trying to get). I mean, I'm in the dentist's office ON MY BIRTHDAY with a broken tooth. Definitely not how I want to start off the morning of my birthday but to be made to feel like you're not worth the time is just not a good experience. Not sure how to proceed but I may still be looking for a new dentist. I hate to give such a highly regarded dental practice 2 stars, but when the experience with front desk is such that it leaves you feeling like you don't want to come back and you're weighing to yourself whether or not to continue to subject yourself to this type of treatment, I think it warrants it. I couldn't do only 1 star because Dr. P was a gem. But what good are great doctors when the staff makes you feel like trash before you even get to meet them?
