After being a patient at Peartree Dental since moving to Maryland during Covid, I am incredibly…read moredisappointed in my experience... Initially, I lived & worked nearby, and I started Invisalign a couple years later in 2022. I paid thousands in full upfront. This past year, I moved to be closer to my new job in College Park resulting in a longer commute. I've always received great feedback regarding how my teeth are shifting, but I got trays mixed up towards the end of the summer while traveling, which delayed my schedule. I apologized for this. My work schedule + my job now being an hour away contributed to having to reschedule some appointments (in advance). Due to this, I've observed an attitude from their receptionist. There was an instance where I had an urgent work meeting, and I called in advance to reschedule & the receptionist just passive-aggressively chuckled... I'm not sure if this is the same woman who greets me when I arrive, but the receptionist who does is not friendly. I've had to say something to be greeted, and the interaction is dismissive. For my last visit, I sensed agitation during my appointment, which was disheartening since I've been a patient for so long. This is likely because the practice may want to wrap up my treatment since I've already paid in full & I'm so close to being done. Keep in mind, my deadline to complete Invisalign is 2027, but of course, I'd like to wrap up my treatment before that point. The practice may have gotten impatient due to my work schedule/commute, so I decided to then find another practice near me to transfer my treatment there. After seeing two Invisalign doctors for consultations, I was quoted additional thousands to transfer treatment. I reached out to Peartree to figure out the transfer process. I expressed to the practice via email my concerns & why I was exploring another provider. I expressed that I would ideally like to finish the treatment there, but that I also don't want to sense agitation when scheduling & arriving for visits. I was flat out IGNORED. I followed up with a question regarding how many trays I have left, which I was responded to quickly without acknowledgment of the concerns I expressed in my previous email to him. I responded stating that I will absolutely be changing doctors at this point because of my concerns being dismissed & for the transfer documentation to please be forwarded via email. I received a fast response with the form (again not acknowledging my email with concerns). The fact that I am switching Invisalign providers & will be paying additional thousands out of pocket with a new doctor rather than finishing up at Peartree due to poor customer service (when I'm so close to being done) is unfortunate... But this shows how disappointed I am in my experience at this practice as a long-term patient. It's apparent that the practice handles concerns by simply ignoring them, so they go away... especially, when the patient has already paid. Very unfortunate... I do not recommend.

Dr. Morse is supportive and professional, and I can tell she will not rest until my jaw issues have resolved. Highly recommend this team!

Updated 9/21 post follow up appointment: I spoke at length…read morewith Dr. Jose and Dr. Torres both owners of the practice and I have been assured that they are taking my concerns and experience seriously, and will be addressing and training the admin staff. I feel better about my overall care and I am giving the practice another opportunity to turn my perception around. Again I had no issue with the care from the providers, and I really do hope I continue to have positive future experiences with the practice. I've been here quite a few times between my appointments and my husbands. First I'll mention the things I like about the practice and there are not many. I like Dr. Chon and the dental hygienists for the most part. Professional and knowledgeable, very clean sleek modern looking offices at both locations. Now for the bad: the front desk staff at both locations are sorely lacking. They send out appointment reminders for the wrong office location, causing us to be late for one of my husbands appointments. Flat out lied about not doing so even though we clearly had the text reminder showing the wrong office. My appointment for my laser procedure lasted longer than necessary. I was left waiting in the exam room long enough for the numbing gel to completely wear off and just took the lidocaine injections without it because I wanted to get in and out. So my appointment was at 2 I believe the actual surgery happened just over an hour later. Same issues with follow up appointments, it's hit or miss whether the reminder is for the office we are supposed to be going to. Dr. Chon is a very competent provider and I'm sure the other providers are good but I will not be going back after my final appointment this month. I personally would rather find a different practice and take my chances. Am I too harsh? Maybe but after seeing patients myself for 16 years I would never behave this way and allow my front desk staff to be so woefully incompetent.

I went to Columbia Center for Implants & Periodontics at the end of last year and had a very…read moredisappointing experience. I was seen by Dr. Torres, who evaluated me and told me I needed to extract five teeth and replace them with implants and bone grafts. She said she couldn't provide a quote or treatment plan at that visit and instructed me to return in two weeks to see Dr. Jose for his input. She even advised me to cancel a deep cleaning I had already scheduled with my regular dentist so I did, even though I really needed it. Two weeks later, I showed up for my appointment with Dr. Jose. They brought me back, made me wait a long time, and eventually an assistant came in to tell me that Dr. Torres had completely forgotten to inform anyone that I was supposed to see him. The only thing she left at reception was a treatment plan for extracting tooth #19--nothing about the five extractions, grafts, or implants she originally told me I needed. The assistant said Dr. Torres would call me that day to apologize and clarify and she never did. I chose this center because of the glowing reviews, but my experience was the complete opposite. It was unprofessional, disorganized, and a total waste of my time. Time I could have spent getting proper care somewhere else. After this ordeal, I went to The Mugford Center, and the difference was night and day. They were professional, responsible, and actually followed through. I ended up getting all the treatment I needed there without any of the runaround. The thousands of dollars I was prepared to spend at Columbia Center for Implants & Periodontics ultimately went to The Mugford Center instead. A place I recommend 100%.

I was impressed…read morewith the chair side manner of Dr Katkow, immediately putting me at ease and making me feel very comfortable in his office. We talked at length about different processes, and he referred me to an oral surgeon, Dr Richard Nessif, for further evaluation. In the meantime, we began the process of impressions, measurements and models. This process took 6 months with many appointments to get everything just right. At each appointment, which was usually a minimum of 45 minutes, I felt like I was his only patient. He never left me sitting by myself, waiting for his return. And if he had to step out of the room, his assistant was there in case I needed anything. He took his time, never rushing, to make sure every aspect of the appliances were perfect. On the day of delivery it was obvious Dr Katkow is an expert in his field. The implants fit perfectly. His precise measurements have ensured a perfect fit and a very happy patient! Along with an outstanding experience I had with Dr. Katkow, his office staff should also be mentioned. They are friendly, welcoming, professional and helpful in making sure you get the appointments that fit your schedule. They are masters of scheduling since most appointment wait times are less than 3 minutes in the waiting room. If you need a complicated procedure, this is the doctor you want to visit. In every way, it was an outstanding experience.

When I first went to Maryland smile center I got a fill in a couple of teeth nothing crazy. First…read moreas they were doing my fill one of the receptionists walks in my room and starts coughing with no mask while my mouth is wide open for a procedure. But when I went back for the recheck I noticed something was off so I walk on the building the reception puts me in the chair starts checking my mouth. Then she starts going on about how her coworker who had been there since like 7:00 am that he shouldn't have a break. She said he was lazy and that she never takes breaks because she's so computed to her job. Then the doctor comes in Dr.park or whoever the male doctor is there. I tell him I think something is wrong with my tooth, twice he tells me no, then the third time I insisted he says "I'm telling you nothing is wrong". So obviously I choose to find another vet cause nobody is gonna talk to me like that and continue to get my money. I call and try to get my carats for my new dentist the receptionist tells me she will send them. I said great can you just send my records with it. She tells me "that violates HIPPA" I asked her why that is and what she thinks the law is with hippa she doesn't give me an answer. For anyone who doesn't know it protects me from anyone else who isn't me from getting my records and prevents them from talking about my records with anyone who isn't me. But I am entitled to my records. It would make sense if they had to verify who I was but even so you sent records to me and didn't verify so I could've been anyone so you could've definitely violated HIPPA if I was a stranger anyway which makes no sense to me. Fast forward my new dentist found that DR.Cho who did my fill in left decay in the tooth and that there was no way Dr.park didn't see it and was just doing dismissive and disrespectful.
