She wants to have a comprehensive picture of who you are so what she discovers about the health and history of your mouth has context. And simply because she cares about her patients.

I usually don't write bad reviews and I am gonna try to keep this one short. I came here over a…read moreyear ago to get rid of a root canal that I believed was a source of problems Her holistic approach was what convinced me in the first place. I am not gonna criticize the dentists there. They seem to be doing a decent job. What I am appalled about is the lack of transparency regarding their prices and the pressure they put on you to have more work done even if you don't want it. The lady in the front was rude, pushy, forces you into getting a 900 dollar membership to receive discounted prices and a yearly "free"cleaning. They make you pay first and then email you a link to a bill 2 pages long... probably to make you feel better about the amount you are being charged for! My procedure was simple X-rays, beam scan, pull the root out. Insert metal implant, and then a crown. I needed an additional sinus lift which I had no issue paying for. But I was told half way through the procedure by the front lady that my implant was gonna be 4793 which I believe is way enough for a regular implant ( not including my sinus lift which was an additional 1530) ... but nope at the time I was supposed to get the abutment and the crown I was told I needed to pay an additional 4654! One tooth would have come up to 9450 without the sinus lift. I had no complications nothing done other than the sinus lift. It took over a year to have half the procedure done. Another thing that sucks there the only dentist that is qualified to do implant comes once a month! Great! They ultimately made me believe I misunderstood when I paid the first 4800... that it was only the implant not the actual tooth! Believe me, I would have been cleary told that the whole thing was gonna cost over 10k I would have been seeing another dentist from the get go. I am not criticizing their work but their lack of transparency, lack of honesty and their prices over all. My old dentist finished the job for less than half want they wanted for the crown. Unless you have 10k for a tooth I would not recommend this place at all!!!

Here's what you should know: Dr. Zau is technically very gifted and he's new school everything. Historically, I've have a lot of trouble getting numb and he knows exactly where my tiny thin nerves are so I can't feel a thing. He works efficiently and uses modern equipment. I've had fillings, extractions, root canals, crown lengthenings and crowns, all with great results. He takes pride in getting things just right. He has a machine that makes crowns and, because I was interested, he showed me how he creates them, which was really cool. He and his staff are kind and easygoing, the offices are clean and he is always on-time. In all these years, I have never had anything less than a 5-star experience.

From the very first exam a month ago, Dr. Groslieb was pleasant, informative, and incredibly kind. She has a unique gift for making patients feel truly comfortable and heard before she even begins treatment. I recently returned for a deep cleaning, and despite my initial nerves, the process was painless. Even after the numbness wore off, I felt no discomfort. What sets this practice apart is that Dr. Groslieb cares about more than just your teeth; she genuinely cares about your mental well-being and takes the time to get to know you as a person.

What I champion in a world of polarity, control and reactivity, is more communication and receptivity, which may have been lacking on this day at this office and with Dr. Sands. I too take accountability for any miscommunication. Upon arriving I quickly gave the latest information to the hygienist (she did my cleaning last time). I informed her that I sometimes take the prophylaxis but that I did not have it at this time. I briefly explained that I just returned from a long journey out of the country and that my insurance had changed and that I have just secured an appointment with a new Dr. to get a script. With a newer diagnosis of LAFB, I was unsure if it was a big deal or not to forgo the prophylaxis. I thought that the DDS could give me a script for it (because you can take it within two hours) but was informed otherwise at the front desk. It was my choice and responsibility to medicate or not. She left the room for a long bit and then returned to continue with the cleaning. There was no discussion on the prophylaxis. I let it go. I'd done it without before. She then said that she needed to take 6 new x-rays. I said that I would sign off on that because I was planning on doing my onlay in the next few months and didn't want to do the x-rays twice. I have never followed the prescribed x-ray protocol and only did it when necessary. She then disappeared. After about 10 long minutes, Dr. Sands came in and introduced herself. She then asked what my fear was around x-rays. I shared with her that it was not a fear but that I did not want to do unnecessary and extra procedures and then do it again in the next couple of months before my onlay. I wanted to focus on the one tooth and upcoming procedure . As most DDS's, she gave me the usual lecture on x-rays, protocols and legalities. I am aware. I get it. I have signed off before. We were focusing on one tooth. I just wanted consideration around the scenario of the big picture and upcoming procedure. She then said it was now too late to do the cleaning and that I would have to come back. But that we could not rebook until they took all six x-rays and did the exam. Breath. Was she really going to give me an ultimatum? At this point, I just wanted to move on. It was a cleaning. I wanted to move on and book my onlay. So I trusted and relented. I was glad to have Dr. Sands do the exam as it was her practice. The hygienist was now going to take the six new X-rays. Two in the front, which wasn't even in question or a problem. Protocol. While I applaud Doctors and Nurses, I feel that the medical establishment is often over stepping. I have experienced and seen plenty. I require my boundaries, rights and sensibilities to be honored and respected where reasonable. The hygienist took the first x-ray rather quickly, and then the second. I could not see her face as she had a mask on the whole time, but I could feel her nervousness. As she pulled out the second X-ray, I took a breath and said, please, just do it right the first time. Well, as I was saying this the second x-ray came up on the screen distorted. Bad timing. Another breath. I said, the same thing happened with my mammogram. I at no time was upset or disrespectful. I was calm, only disappointed. She ran out of the room, triggered. I could hear her asking if someone else could take the x-ray because there was an overlay. I heard Dr. Sands asked if there was an overlay on my teeth. No. A few minutes later Dr. Sands comes into the room and tells me to leave her practice as I don't want to abide by her protocols and that I was "mean" to her hygienist and upset her. Wow. She goes to grab my purse and says that she will walk me to the door! I am surprised by this reactivity. I am calm and watching the whole scenario. I tell her that there is no need for her to walk me to door. I take my things and tell the hygienist that I'm sorry that she got nervous. I leave. What a fiasco. The times before when I had my cleaning, Dr Sands was not in the office. The hygienist felt calm and confident. The energy was completely different this time. It's great that Dr Sands is protective of her employees. It's great that she holds a high bar to her ideals. It's also unfortunate that her reactivity was way over the mark on that day. That she read the room wrong, and that she read me wrong. "Mean" is not something I have ever been described as. Honestly, if anyone deserves an apology, it would be to me. I felt unheard, unaccommodated, condescended to and well, scapegoated. As a woman close to my pier group I would consider more from Dr. Sands. I would hope that she would consider her part in handling this and take accountability for this human foible. No defenses needed, but an acknowledgment and fair response would be up to par.

Before my appointment, no one reviewed or explained the charges for my deep cleaning. I have dual PPO insurance, and I know deep cleanings are covered, yet I was still charged a significant out-of-pocket amount. I was never informed that a laser would be used, nor that it would be an additional charge per quadrant. I assumed it was part of the standard procedure. This was never discussed or consented to prior to treatment. Even more concerning, my son and I were separated and taken to different rooms, and they proceeded to do multiple fillings on my son without ever informing me how many were needed or asking for my consent. No one came to explain the treatment plan before starting, during my own procedure, or afterward. As a parent, this is completely unacceptable. At no point was I given a clear treatment plan or cost breakdown for either of us. Despite having dual insurance coverage, I was still charged $621 out of pocket. When I asked for an itemized receipt, I was told they could not provide one, which is a huge red flag. This office feels extremely money-driven, with poor communication and questionable consent practices. I truly regret not paying closer attention to the reviews before booking here. Transparency, consent, and trust are critical in healthcare--and this office failed on all three. Please avoid this place and protect yourself and your family.
