WARNING: Deceptive Billing and Medical Misrepresentation…read more Warning to the Queens community regarding the predatory business practices at Dental Specialties of NY on Hillside Ave. My family was subjected to a blatant "bait-and-switch" scheme regarding a tooth extraction on January 6, 2026. During the consultation, Dr. Kambiz Vatandoost and his assistant "Charlie" insisted a bone graft was necessary and quoted $1,600, while falsely claiming it was not covered by insurance. We paid that amount specifically for the graft and explicitly declined a separate $950 Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) treatment. Despite our refusal, they drew blood anyway and claimed the PRF was "free." When we followed up with our insurance provider, we discovered that bone grafts are actually a covered benefit under our plan. More shockingly, when insurance contacted the office directly, the staff denied ever performing a bone graft, claiming they only did a Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) procedure. This means they charged us $1,600 out-of-pocket for a service they told the insurance company never happened, while trying to pass off a treatment we specifically rejected as the primary service. When confronted, the office repeatedly told multiple members of our family--including a Registered Nurse--that we simply "misunderstood" the plan. They denied any wrongdoing despite verbal agreements. It took days of us physically going to the office and causing disruption loudly, as to alert other patients of their conduct, before they finally agreed to a refund. Even then, the resolution was handled with zero integrity. They withheld 5% of our money as a "transaction fee" and forced my relative to sign a liability waiver as a condition for returning our funds. Any "resolution" this office claims to have is likely coerced through these predatory tactics. If you are able to, avoid this place entirely. In my opinion, they should be shut down for what I consider medical malpractice and fraudulent conduct, especially based on the many reviews that detail common experiences. If you absolutely must go there, ensure you read every single piece of paperwork they make you sign. They made my relative sign a document that was not the agreed-upon procedure on purpose so they could charge us for it later and deny what was decided on the day of the visit. Always request a document with a full itemized cost of all procedures before anything is done. Do not trust their verbal quotes, and do not let them gaslight you. We are moving forward with a formal complaint to the NYS Office of Professional Discipline (OPD).

Very confused. I have 2 insurances- blue cross. (Primary, small dental benefit) and emblem…read more(secondary, but with the bulk of the dental benefits) . I made my appointment and gave both insurance info at time of booking, explaining that they'd have to bill my primary first and whatever denial they get (which is what will happen ) then they will bill the secondary and get paid. It doesn't matter if they are out of network with the primary, even if they were in network it will still get denied. I explained that my husband - who has the same insurances as me, was seen by them recently and he recommended them. Now they left me a message 3 days ago saying they are out of network with my insurances. I called my insurances because I was confused since they just got paid for seeing my husband. I was assured they are in network still and the billing policy is the same for the insurances - first bill Blue Cross then after denial bill Emblem. So I was planning to keep my appointment for next week. However I got a call today saying "we are not in network with your insurances". I clarified what the insurance said, the girl then changes her tune "we don't deal with dual insurances when one is not in network - it's our policy " I said well when did that change? She said "that's always been our policy" . I told her it wasn't true because they just recently saw my husband and had no problem getting paid, are they just not wanting to do the extra required work to bill the primary? She then went on to further explain "well this is now our policy " Sooooo you went from you're not in network with my insurances , to we don't deal with dual insurances, to we don't bill out of network then bill a second insurance, and that's always been our policy, to it's our new policy. Meanwhile, you actually ARE in network with Emblem and you're not following their billing practices, which I'm sure is unethical billing, and deceptive practices. Patients need to be aware that you're incompetent at billing or simply lazy and won't take time to bill correctly because it's extra work for you.

The actual…read moredental work he did on my son resulted in an infection just a week after to the point that his upper lip became inflated. Then his staff had the nerve to e-mail and call me for more money. When my husband came on 4/2/25, the price told him for the entire job, which just entailed 2 white crowns, 1 cap, and cleaning of 2 bottom teeth was $890; which he paid in full. At first the staff said $910, and then discounted it to $890 because if it was that price my husband would have chosen to go elsewhere. We never agreed to $1,850 for this job. Even if it were $910 we would have decided to go elsewhere. To charge $1,850 for 2 trips, the first of which took the dentist less than 1 hr and the 2nd trip taking less than half hour is ridiculous. Further, my daughter's cleaning, which we paid out of pocket in full the day of, this dentist had the nerve to request insurance to pay the same, claiming this bill was unpaid--double-billing.
