I was VERY nervous and VERY scared when I heard I needed a root canal, but I was in so much pain,…read morethat I knew what had to be done: face my fear of having tiny barbed wires stuck into my sensitive tooth to clean out all the decay. Luckily, my knowledge of root canals was based on what dentists did in the 70s and my procedure was neither scary, painful, or traumatic. It was no different from having a filling or a crown. There was no pain at all and my anxiety melted away as soon as we begun. Dr. Kathpalia and team were very understanding about my nervous nature and went out of their way to make me feel calm and comfortable. The tools and equipment were all modern. There were no implements of torture or ancient relics in the office. The only pain I felt was in the other side of my jaw from holding my mouth open for an hour and a half (and of course when my dental insurance covered a generous 3% of the total cost). Endospecialists even has their own gated parking lot, which is a really nice touch. This was a referral from my own dentist, but I would recommend anyone needing a root canal to give them a call for a consultation. They were able to fit me in the day after I called, so I didn't have to worry about the appointment for weeks or deal with the constant pain. Thank you Dr. K and team!

WATCH OUT -- Dr. Kathpalia's office seems to routinely add extra charges to their bills. They did…read moreit to me 3 times in a row. To protect yourself during your appointment, you will need to know what parts of the root canal process an endodontist does and what parts your dentist does and who your insurance will pay for each part. They added $461 to my initial bill for the final restoration of my crown "because your insurance doesn't pay for it." My insurance actually does pay my dentist for that procedure because it should be done a week later by a dentist, not done immediately by the endodontist. Since I had figured that out beforehand, I was able to decline it, noting that my dentist would do it. They then presented me with a second bill on which they had changed the code for the root canal procedure to one that pays them more. When I objected to that, they presented a third bill with an extra charge they couldn't even explain. At that point, I walked out. I had seen several red flags in their paperwork when I first went through it at home, and that plus 3 attempts to overcharge me was too much. I will not do business with anyone who tries to cheat me. Note that this is a review of their billing practices, not their medical expertise. I did not stay for the medical part, so I can't comment on that.

Both the office staff and doctor were really welcoming and friendly. I told the Doctor that I might get anxious on the day of treatment, he answered all my questions and sent a prescription to my pharmacy On the day of treatment, the staff were nice as always. To be honest, the whole team had so much aura I wasn't even that anxious going into the treatment. Chair and glasses were both comfortable, I even fell asleep for basically the whole time which is crazy work because I'm usually really anxious. Dr was kind, informative, educated, personable and did a great job. They also sent the paperwork over to my dentist without me having to facilitate anything. 10/10 would reccomend to anyone.

In order to catch those tricks, I'd had to learn more than I ever wanted to know about the procedures, codes, co-pays, and what my insurance would and would not pay for. Dr. Nabipour's receptionist, by contrast, was straight-forward and open with me. When I first called, she walked me through the list of procedures, codes, and co-pays, telling me what my cost would be in each instance. When I had the appointment, the procedures and costs were exactly as expected. Dr. Nabipour himself was similarly professional. He was friendly, but mostly focused on the task at hand. During the procedure, I felt pressure but no actual pain, even during the initial injections in my jaw and gums. It was clear that he's done this a thousand times and knows exactly what to expect and how to handle each step. If I ever need another root canal, I will go back to Dr. Nabipour.

But once inside their offices - everything and everyone was professional, neat and clean. Dr. Quong has amazing bedside manner. I was fully prepared to come in for a root canal but after running multiple tests and taking several X-rays, she said that it would not be necessary and promised to give me a quick appointment if my pain comes back.

Her staff was professional and friendly and very thoughtful around hygiene during these maddening times.
