I immediately paid the entire balance and quit seeing him. Later a nasty note from his receptionist said that loads of patients were anxious to get into his office, and I was lucky to have permission to pay in installments! HUH? Consumers beware of DELMAR--doczs, vets, and dentists in that otherwise lovely town tend to be really mercenary!

This was just an amazing experience…read more I had a terrible accident. I fell while climbing a fence in the rain and broke my front teeth as well as the one next to them. I mean they were smashed. I panicked, I cried. I went home to my girl and was ashamed. First thing in the morning I began to look up reviews and prices for dentists. I researched, I asked people for recommendations. My girlfriend was told by her professor that Dr. Vignali has been her family dentist (4 children) for years and that she highly recommends his office. WOW I called around 10 am and they gave me a 2 oclock appointment which I was happy to except. I am not insured (despite working 80 hrs per week with 4 jobs), so price was an obvious concern. This place was not the cheapest, but not the most expensive either (for some reason a dentist on Broadway in Downtown Albany, whose prices were half of most others and whose reviews claimed the office was dirty didn't make me want to trust them with my front teeth). I waited for about five minutes. The staff was so comforting from the assistant to the secretaries to the Dentist himself. They made the worst experience of my life much easier. The office was meticulously clean. They had the latest equipment, including a flat screen TV that showed you the x rays as soon as they were taken with a cool little x-ray gun and not the big machine I am used to. When the Dr. gave my the anesthetic it was painless. The procedure was also painless, and quick. Before I knew it I had nice presentable teeth. They were also very good at educating me on what they were doing, how I should care for my new teeth, and what to expect in the future. They did not try to sell me on a bunch of needless procedures and work like some dentists have in the past. Overall, I recommend this office very highly. They made a world of difference for me through this terrible mishap.

These are primarily what you see when I smile so I was nervous about how it would come out and whether I would feel pain. The technician really put me at ease with nice chatter to take my mind off things and even make me laugh before dr came in. Dr Vignali went slowly and explained exactly what he was doing every step of the way which relaxed me tremendously. He is knowledgeable about TMJ issues, unlike otherwise dentists Ive been to. I needed the application of ceramic that matched my teeth. They matched them perfectly! They also had to do some filing down of the new ceramic material on my teeth. He carefully and checked my bite and made adjustments multiple times to make sure teeth were touching everywhere evenly. I am happy to smile again.

For starters, let me say Front Desk Jessica is the star of this practice…read more My husband and I (and our daughter) were patients of Dr. Shah for several years. Tia cleaned our teeth. We were all very satisfied with the care we received. (Cue the ominous music) Then the practice became part of the First Advantage chain and everything went to hell in a cuspidor. Dr. Shah left. Tia left. The practice began to feel like a factory. Yes, Dr. Mandava is very nice, but at a minimum I would expect him to read my records before asking me why I came in. I had X-rays taken by a cheerful young woman who told me her only academic qualifications were a high school diploma. I was also seen by a young man who told me he was a licensed dentist from a Caribbean country but had no US credentials. I love young people. I adore immigrants. However, I hate "chain practices" and was reluctant to continue entrusting my choppers to this practice. I have sought dental care elsewhere.

In all my life I never had a dentist that I looked forward to the visit. That all changed when Dr. V took over the office. I have had three crowns replaced and they are still going strong and fit perfectly. He uses the strongest materials and does not use metal. He is very attentive to your needs and always makes sure you are completely numb in the area he works on. He checks constantly on your comfort level. I can tell when he is working on my teeth that he is a perfectionist, checking and double checking everything. I have had zero pain when he works on my teeth and that is the comfort we should all expect. His staff is exceptional, attentive, and the best all around. They even worked with my insurance to remove extra charges that should have been covered. Really surprised at the 1 star comments, but I am sure that is his competitors using bots to downrate him. I say this because every time I am there, the parking lot is full, unlike the previous dentist. When I moved to Albany, NY the last great thing I expected was having the best dentist ever. I can truly say Dr V. Is the best
