    Went here to get an ache in my tooth checked out and Dr. Peretz took great care of me. He was very knowledgeable and listened to all of my concerns. The office staff was also very attentive and polite.

    I went to Georgetown Smile yesterday for a complimentary invisalign consultation, and I had a phenomenal experience. I'm not sure if the office is metro accessible or not, but if you drive, it's perfect. Finding parking isn't a hassle. There are two spots reserved especially for Georgetown Smile patients in the underground garage, and there are also several parking spaces available behind the building. The office is very clean and bright. Nice music was playing in the background and they somehow managed to play music and leave the television volume up without it being overwhelming...grand. The coffee table in the waiting area had several current magazines on the table. It seems like a very minor detail, but it meant a lot to me because there is nothing worse than having to sit in a waiting area that has old tattered magazines. I didn't get a chance to admire the waiting area for long, because the office staff was so efficient. As soon as I entered the office, I was greeted by one of the young ladies at the front desk. She asked me for ID/insurance information etc. and gave me forms to fill out. As soon as I finished filling out the forms, the dental assistant came to get me. I promise...there was no wait. She asked me if I had any trouble finding the office and asked me how my day was going before offering me water and A PILLOW! Lol Next, the very friendly dentist came to do the consultation. He started by asking me how my day was and if I had any trouble finding the office....I'm not really big on small talk so that was kind of annoying because having to answer those same questions the dental assistant just asked me was painful. They should coordinate that part a little better. Anyway, the consultation was very brief yet informative. Once it was over, the dentist kept smiling and suggested I come back when it's time for my annual cleaning. He then escorted me to the front desk where the receptionist reviewed invisalign payment options with me. I haven't had any actual dental work here, but based on the exceptional customer service alone, I highly recommend their services.

    So its been awhile since I've seen a dentist. My previous dentist didn't listen, did not use enough anesthetic, and also hit me with a number of charges that I didn't make sense, and I couldn't afford. I came here on a personal recommendation. Getting an appt was easy enough. The office was initially hard to find from the street, but there is a directory I didn't see on my way in that I DID see on my way out (so my fault). The office itself was nice, warm and inviting. I like this: there's a lot to fear from a dentist's office - I know of far too many horror stories, so to have a nice soothing atmosphere was great. The chairs I sat in were comfortable and were quite articulate. Bending in just the right places. The nurse (who's name I'm sure is Shirley, but I could have misheard) offered me a neck pillow! A neck pillow! Getting x-rays were quick and easy. I'm used to getting into a room, standing in one spot as a machine goes around and around. Nope! I'm still in the chair, biting down on a plate as the machine comes to me. (let's not forget that Shirley placed an x-ray apron[?]) Dr. Peretz was quite kind and courteous. He wanted to know exactly what to do and had some mouth x rays taken. He understood my situation, and he wanted to work out a plan. I got a genuine impression that Dr. Peretz cared. I plan on making a next appointment very soon, and I know what the cost will be ahead of time. If my last dentist was more like this, I'd have had a regular dentist far sooner.

    I can SEE my car from the examination room. And the parking was free.

    I had braces for so long that I can fall asleep while someone scrapes at my teeth but I can still tell that the dental hygienist here was gentler than most. She didn't poke at my gums or make it feel punitive because I hadn't flossed enough. Can one ever floss enough for a dentist? Unlikely. They took the inevitable x rays which new dentists always do, but I anticipated that and my insurance covers it. I worry about my head getting that much radiation and have never had a cavity. I have a constantly dry mouth due to a prescription medication and have become concerned as a result of recently learning that meth mouth is caused by lack of salivation. I mentioned this and was provided with a sample of a product designed to make me....drool? Ok that works The ladies at the front desk were super nice and didn't roll their eyes at all when if thought I had a different insurance than I in fact do (I would have).

At all times during my visits with Dr. Colasanto I was treated with the utmost professionalism and respect by everyone. The front office staff was friendly and courteous, and there were no surprises when it came to cost or insurance claims. When I had to have any procedures, they were fully explained in detailed, clinical terms and also in easy-to-understand language I could relate to. At all times I felt at ease and even when the 'dreaded needle' was needed I was always calm knowing I was in good hands. I appreciate his calm, professional demeanor throughout. Now that my issue has been resolved I hope to never require any more periodontal work, but if I do, he will be my doctor of choice.

    Unfortunately, this Doctor did a great job at fixing my gum situation, but decided at some point…read morethat I had no value as a patient. My issue was I had a decayed tooth implant where the bone in my jaw had atrophied significantly over time - the implant had been in my jaw for over 35 years and had come out due to lack of bone structure - the implant wouldn't hold. After my dentist told me to contact and meet with Dr. Friedman, I had a nice initial consultation and decided to let her replace some of my jaw bone and gum needed for reconstruction. Although I think her efforts were "decent" the gum and bone did not sufficiently/cosmetically cover the loss and visually it wasn't sufficient to replace the dental implant/bridge with her efforts. I went back in for a check up and she said it had mostly healed, but I think she realized that she wasn't capable of fixing the issue - at this point she had me setup an Appointment about 1 month later to see how the healing was going. During that time, my Appointment was cancelled - without any contact to me. When I emailed and called the day before the appointment, I was told not to bother coming back in - they informed me that they could not handle the bridge or implant on their side, and all I could do was contact another provider. I was not informed of my situation and I was not allowed to create an Appointment to get more information/details - I was Sh*t out of luck!

    I could hardly recommend Dr. Friedman highly enough. She has done two gum grafts for me, both of…read morewhich could hardly have gone more smoothly, with the most recent quite remarkably pain free, and exactly the hoped-for results in both cases. So she clearly knows her craft. But what has most stood out to me is what a kind person and excellent doctor Dr. Friedman is in terms of caring about each patient as a person. She has always welcomed my questions and spent whatever time may be needed to answer them. When I asked last year about delaying my graft till this year because otherwise my insurance would not cover it at all, she was 100% understanding and reassured me that it would be fine to wait. Remarkably, when she picked up the phone when I called her office to ask whether I should call my dentist to ask for my latest x-rays, she said no need for me to do that -- she did want the x-rays, but had my dentist's email address, so she emailed my dentist herself. How many doctors would do that??? And Dr. Friedman pays great attention. Before my most recent gum graft, I asked about using my fluoride rinse and mouthwash -- "Listerine equivalent," as I put it (it is a generic brand). After the graft, at the end of the appointment, when giving me the mouthrinse I should use for the next week, she said after a week, I can return to my fluoride rinse and "Listerine equivalent." That's paying attention to what the patient says for you. In short, you could not be in better hands than when under the care of Dr. Friedman.

What a master Dr. Kaufman is.   Ably assisted by his very bright and cheerful associates, who explained everything to me as we went along, Dr. Kaufman removed the old cracked (but recalcitrant) tooth effectively and efficiently.   Then, he built up the area and later, after a rest of several months, implanted a metal post successfully.   Now, he has completed the job and readied the mouth for a new crown to be placed over that post. The pain has been minimum, but the results maximum. In addition, his office is on the side of the patients, operates with great ability, and actually argues for the rights of the patient with the insurance company. This is the state of  the art for periodontal work.   Any person with teeth should definitely go to Dr. Kaufman when it is time to schedule tooth repair or tooth replacement with an implant.  It is worth traveling many miles to obtain the services of Dr. Kaufman and his skilled associates.
