Yesterday was my first visit to this Black-owned establishment. My previous dentist is retiring…read moreearly and has pretty much checked out, so we need a new dentist. My appointment was for 11am, I arrived a few minutes early to get through the paperwork. Moments after completing it, I was called to the back where they took x-rays and then got me settled in a room. Dr. Martin is the primary dentist and he's got decades of experience - practiced in D.C. for about 15 years before he opened his current practice and location 8 years ago. I found him to be professional but also friendly and personable. The office staff are polite and efficient as they explained to me how the appointments are held and what I owed after insurance coverage. All in all, it was a pleasant experience; I was out of there 1 hour and 15 minutes after I walked in, got x-rays and a cleaning - now that's what I'm looking for, fast and professional. One of my pet peeves is having an appointment somewhere, showing up and having to wait extra time before I get in the back, then waiting more time to be seen. I'll be back.

I have been coming here since I moved here nearly 2 years…read more I bring my entire family. I love them because they don't try to upsell their services and products. I am in and out within 30 minutes for a cleaning. They are a small office-- so no long waits. There was only one time where I had to wait 15 minutes and the doctor offered a free service. Staff- from the front office, to techs to the doctors are all extremely nice and professional. I am not usually impressed with dental offices but I will and have recommended this office to others. They accept Federal dental insurances-- including military.

They greet you by name, keep the check‑in process smooth, and somehow manage to juggle a busy schedule while still making each patient feel like the only one on the calendar. Office manager Katrina is the heartbeat of the front office. She was professional, calming, and relentlessly solution‑oriented. She goes above and beyond to resolve billing or insurance issues, explain treatment plans in plain language, and make sure every visit ends with all questions answered and next steps crystal clear. Her leadership shows in how cohesive and welcoming the entire team is, and you can feel her commitment to patient care in every interaction. Dental hygienist Darryl delivers one of the most meticulous cleanings you'll ever experience, without ever feeling rushed or rough. He takes time to walk through exactly what he's seeing with your gums and teeth, coaches you on brushing and flossing technique specific to your mouth, and checks in frequently to be sure you're comfortable at every step. By the end of the appointment, your teeth feel incredibly clean, and you leave with practical, personalized tips that make you feel genuinely cared for, not like you were just run through a routine.

I get my appointments done every six months, and I used to get postcard reminders in the mail. Now, I get text message reminders and so far they have been flawless! They accept most of the popular insurance companies, and rescheduling is never a problem. Gary Ludka is the main doctor here, and the hygienist that always takes care of me is Angela. They are extremely friendly individuals, and they always ask how I am doing and make sure I have been taking care of myself. Angela holds fun conversation while cleaning and makes the experience much less of a bore. They tend to remember anything you tell them there, so you know they really do care. Routine cleanings typically take about an hour (depends on how well you take care of your teeth!) and you always leave with floss, a toothbrush, and toothpaste. I feel like my dental health has overall improved since my family switched to this dentistry. I would recommend it to anyone.

I am so happy to know Dr. Adensanya and his team are still going strong! I am a returning patient…read moreafter 10+ years. Dr. Adensanya and his new partnrr Doctor (forgot her name, apologies) were both extremely patient with me after I explained to them that I have pretty severe anxiety surrounding doctors and dentists. I had a procedure today and Dr. Adensanya and his team were extremely comforting, supportive, and understanding, all while doing an excellent job on the procedure itself. Talk about multitasking! I would highly recommend giving them a try, especially if you're uneasy at the dentist like I've come to be. Can totally feel the warmth! The front desk staff is very kind and helpful. The only critical feedback is that I was almost accidentally charged twice. I paid for today's procedure after my cleaning in October, because they explained that they prefer payments ahead. Today, as I was leaving, they requested the same payment again. I told them I paid on 10/31 and they were able to find the payment. But if I had forgotten or misunderstood, I may have been overcharged. I'm certain it would have been returned if that was thr case, but I think its important for patients to be aware of what they paid, when, and which card they used to eliminate any potential hiccups! Overall, good experience, especially considering my anxiety.

I was called by a woman who identified herself as a temp. She said she was sorry I didn't have an appointment with Careen. I feel like I was singled out to go with the temp. Nothing against the hygienist because she tried to do her best. I have worked as a temp in the past so I understand. Why wasn't I told this before the appointment??? I would have rescheduled. I don't like to complain but I was really disappointed. I felt a push to reschedule with whomever for my next appointment. I was told I had to wait until September 2023 to get in with Careen. Obviously there is a shortage of hygienists. Who's to say that I won't get bumped again? This is not the first time this happened. An associate did my crown before the pandemic. I will not get into that story. But I ended up having to pay out of pocket for a proper crown a few months later. Another time a dentist did my cleaning.

Despite multiple uncomfortable interactions with Dr. McEnroe over the years, I never made a formal complaint--just asked to have my account noted not to be scheduled with her. At a recent appointment, I had no choice but to see her again since Dr. Vargas was out. When things didn't go well, I calmly asked to speak with her to share how her attitude has made me feel as a long-time, paying patient. No yelling or cursing--just expressing myself respectfully. She acted shocked, interrupted me, and didn't take ownership. A few days later, I received both an email and a letter saying they would no longer provide care, claiming the relationship was no longer "conducive to a congenial atmosphere." Sadly, it seems this is how they respond when patients speak up--something I've since noticed mentioned in other reviews. Also worth noting: after every appointment, they push hard via email for Google and Facebook reviews, which may explain why their Google rating is high, while their Yelp page tells a very different story.

First of all they schedule each procedure separately and never together. We have would been told that we have an appointment for one thing and when we would arrive, it would be for something else entirely different. Secondly, Shannon is beyond rude and unprofessional. She is belittling and sarcastic. She has NO customer service skills. They have a 4.7 rating in Google. I am not sure how when their rating is 2.1 on Yelp. Maybe some incentive for posting a good review or family and friends are doing the reviews because there is no way they have earned and kept such a high rating. Sure the office is aesthetically pleasing but the professionalism is beyond lacking. I wish I checked Yelp before deciding to go to Vargas Dental Associates. You have been warned. Stay away from this place or you too will find yourself unhappy with your dental experience.
