In all my life I never had a dentist that I looked forward to the visit. That all changed when Dr. V took over the office. I have had three crowns replaced and they are still going strong and fit perfectly. He uses the strongest materials and does not use metal. He is very attentive to your needs and always makes sure you are completely numb in the area he works on. He checks constantly on your comfort level. I can tell when he is working on my teeth that he is a perfectionist, checking and double checking everything. I have had zero pain when he works on my teeth and that is the comfort we should all expect. His staff is exceptional, attentive, and the best all around. They even worked with my insurance to remove extra charges that should have been covered. Really surprised at the 1 star comments, but I am sure that is his competitors using bots to downrate him. I say this because every time I am there, the parking lot is full, unlike the previous dentist. When I moved to Albany, NY the last great thing I expected was having the best dentist ever. I can truly say Dr V. Is the best

A patient for 25 years mainly under the old ownership of the practice who have recently retired,…read morethe practice is not the same as it used to be. The new main dentist, rhymes with lox, has the personality of a greedy rock. Lipnick was great, the reason why I stayed with the practice for so long; with him gone, the practice has lost all patient centered focus, it's now $, $ and more $. After going over my annual dental insurance limit and being hit with a big bill, I paid in installments only to find out that during Covid, when I lost my job, the practice had referred my account to a collection agency - they call it an "accelerator." Nice euphemism for we don't give a shit about you, give us our money. Once I learned of the practices' money grubbing ways to a 25 year client, I gladly stepped away and hope others do as well in the hope of actually finding dentists with just a sliver of compassion, understanding and heart. You won't find it at Albany Dental Team!

Dr. Winter walks you through everything he is doing. No surprises. His staff is kind, caring and also contribute to calmness, as they are well versed in their jobs, from the front desk to dental assistant, they ease the anxiety with their know-how and kindness. Dr. Winter is by far the best dentist I have ever gone to. I thought I would be doing sedation dentistry due to my anxiety, but Dr. Winter was able to do all my work so far without it. Dr. Winter knows how to numb the area with the least amount of pain that he can. I have never seen him frustrated, even though I may pause him for my own needs or to get additional numbing. He and his staff are so awesome. I never thought I would say that about any dentist!!! I will have a beautiful smile because of Dr. Winter, and his staff!

But the crown popped off, it was more than 5 years old since the original implant. The original crown was with another practitioner, but Dr K was able to clean and prepare the crown for reimplantation. Less than two day wait to be seen, less than 5 minute wait for the actual appointment in office. After approximately 10 minutes, my problem was solved-- the crown was re-cemented in place. I threw out the gummies. I use GEHA high option for insurance, and have never been disappointed with my share of the cost for services. GEHA allows three cleanings per year, and I have zero co-pay. No fees for parking on New Scotland Ave is another added attraction. I have never had a bad transaction with Dr Kanakasabapathi or her polite staff. I began with her office prior to the Covid epidemic.

Aspen Dental advertisers $28 X-ray and examination Nationwide…read more My first visit to Aspen Dental March 26th 2026. I was given and full frontal x-ray and examination. After the procedure explanation and dental plan and billing. They explain that I was beginning to have paradigmos disease. They would build my insurance $20O0 and myself would have to pay $200 out of pocket. I explain to office manager that I have never paid out of pocket Other than co-pay. And I have some of the best insurance as a New York State Employee under CSEA Dental Program. So I declined any further procedures. I soon contacted Upstate Dental. They quickly upfront explain to me that my insurance was not going to pay for any x-rays being that I had already had x-rays done. And I needed to have Aspen Dental forward The full frontal x-rays two Upstate Dental. I did so immediately went to Aspen Dental @ 979 Central Avenue suite 400. Signed information release forms to be emailed to Upstate Dental. When I went to Upstate Dental they had the x-rays. They kept emphasizing that I had very good insurance with New York State and they could proceed with any procedure that was needed. On May 2nd 2026 I received a bill from Aspen Dental for $164.00 I contacted Martha in billing. I explained to her that I was not informed that my insurance company was not going to pay for the x-rays. If I had been informed I would have been able to refuse any procedures that Aspen Dental were providing. I am on FMLA at half pay and 164.00 is a burden to me. She explained that each and every Aspen Dental is individually owned and have their own rules and regulations. I asked about the $28 full examination and x-rays. She explained to me that that was for people who did not have insurance. That is not disclosed in their Nationwide advertisement. While on hold on a telephone one of their advertisements says they offer Peace of mind billing up front full disclosure of any billing and procedures. Yet and still I was not advised that my insurance company was not going to pay for x-rays. She then inform me that you probably could negotiate with the Central Avenue office I asked for the name of the office manager Alexis. I called and left a detailed voicemail and got no response in return. Upstate Dental was forthcoming and transparent and explain to me that x-rays had to be transferred. And my insurance company was not going to pay it. Aspen Dental did not ask for my previous x-rays from Dr. Mustafa Sabai @ 165 Manning boulevard Albany New York. Knowing that my insurance company was not going to pay for the x-rays there was no full disclosure, transparency, or explanation in the procedure and billing meeting with the office manager @ Aspen Dental 979 Central Avenue on March 26th. Aspen Dental has shown predatory practices by Nationwide advertising that you can get an examination & X-rays for $28. When that is not true. They were not up front transparent with the disclosure that my insurance company was not going to pay for the full frontal x-rays. Although they were very much aware of this fact. I find that Aspen Dental is deceptive in their office billing and business practices. They practice predatory senior billing$$$!
