    After nearly 5 years I need to write this review to sing the praises of Dr Keaney and her whole…read moreteam. It's really rare to experience an office where all staff members are kind, helpful, and friendly, but that is this office. From the admin person to the front desk staff to the hygienists to the dentist herself, this is an office that truly cares for the kids and their families. All the staff are all positive and supportive. The office is very clean and conducive to kids, with tvs in the ceiling, toys in the waiting room, and kids decor throughout. There is a dry erase board where each kids name is written to welcome them, a very nice touch. Each kid gets a goody bag at the end and a token which can be used on the toy vending machines in the lobby. This is a HUGE hit with the kids! They usually get little jewelry trinkets or toys that they get excited about. One time the staff gave them balloons which was sweet. The dentist herself is very kind and gentle and thorough with the kids. She'll take time to answer questions and explain things. The same go for all the hygienists here. I always get a good vibe when coming to my kids dental appointment!

Just this month, she has decided to drop Metlife. This appears to be a pattern -- a pattern of dropping some of the more common insurance carriers. I do not know for how long it has been going on, but it causes chaos and unpredictability around a part of a young child's life that is already scary and confusing. This is arrogant and, and it sends a perhaps unintentional signal that her team possibly care only about the wealthiest members of the Arlington community who can afford to bear the burden of this unpredictability. It forces busy families to scramble to find a new dentist for their child -- and I fear it can cause harm to children who develop a bond of trust with one building and staff to be migrated to another. So, pray tell, how do Metlife families at your practice explain this to their 3 and 4 year olds? If you don't belong to an extremely high-earning two family household, Dr. Flanagan's practice is not for you. You cannot predict from one year to the next if you can afford for your child to be seen at this practice.

    I wish I could have gone to a dentist that catered to kids when I was young! The fact that I can…read moreensure my kids are getting a gentle and bespoke experience is a relief. Both of our kiddos are patients and they actually love going to the dentist. The space is made just for kids, the dentists, hygienists, and staff are all great at interacting with kids and helping them feel at ease in what for many adults can be a stressful experience. Each part of the process is fun for the kids. You can really tell that Dr. Anamelechi thought through every step of the experience -- from the waiting area with different activities (like coloring and reading) to the fun sunglasses you wear during the visit to the interactive x-rays. My kids feel special throughout and I am grateful to have found a pediatric dentist that offers such a thoughtful and fun experience. Another thing is that they take most insurance and offer sliding scale for families without insurance. The DC location takes BCBS (the MD location does not yet but might be working on it). Anyway if you have kiddos, go to Children's Choice! They will love it!

From the moment that we arrived, everyone was welcoming, friendly, and put us at ease. They provided great tips and guidance to support my daughter's dental care, and even had some toys to give her to show that dentist trips are not a bad thing. The whole process was quick and easy. Thank you!
