After a major accident cost me my two front teeth, Dr. Richard P. Fordjour and his team treated me…read morewith the urgency, precision, and attention you would expect for a head of state. I am decidedly not one, but that is exactly how they made me feel. I had already been a patient of Dr. Fordjour for fifteen years. Then the accident happened, and I saw what truly separates this practice from others. Over a weekend, Dr. Fordjour immediately coordinated with his internal team, brought in leading oral surgeons, gave me clear counsel, and helped move me into treatment. At a moment when I was dealing with pain, uncertainty, appearance, and cost, he gave me exactly what I needed: calm judgment, honesty, and a real plan. The most impressive part was not just the technical skill, although that was exceptional. It was the integrity. Every recommendation was direct, fair, and unbiased. He consistently guided me toward the most sensible and affordable path, not the most expensive one. His team matched that standard from start to finish. They were sharp, caring, cutting-edge, and deeply empathetic. Over a difficult year, they made a complicated process feel manageable and, at times, seamless. They cared about me as a person, not just as a dental case. Dr. Fordjour was available around the clock, checked in without being asked, and always made time to answer questions or settle concerns. If you want a dentist who is brilliant, honest, and genuinely in your corner, this is the one. I cannot recommend Dr. Fordjour and Washington Center for Dentistry more highly.

Dr. J is very informative and makes it a point to provide great service to her clients. She's also hilarious. The staff, ranging from dental hygienists, assistants to the ladies at the front desk, all provide good service as well. I always feel welcomed and they care about my concerns as well as make sure my teeth are in better shape than they were before my appointment. As for booking appointments, it's easy and not so stressful. I can always book an appointment that fits my schedule and if I need to make any change such as coming in earlier, they're willing to accommodate. Also, they have their own chapstick for you to grab when leaving the office! I look forward to getting one each time I visit. For some reason it just makes my visit a tad bit better.

They later…read morewere in a rush to get a hh and botched my filling and shaved it down too much on the wrong side when I called out one side was pointy and poking into my tongue. I went home with way too much anesthetics injected into my mouth. It was numb for hours to the point I was drooling and really had to wait a long time to eat as I was warned that it could be dangerous to eat with a numb mouth in case I bit my cheek or something and couldn't feel it. I was so upset I never came back and wrote the previous review only to have someone from the clinic claim that I'm not even in their patient system. Really convenient. Fast forward more time - I receive an email reminder for an upcoming appointment and it says that I cannot email for cancelation and must call in. I called and they are closed on a Friday at 3pm. I did not make this appointment but clearly I'm in their system somewhere. This is ridiculous. I left a voicemail when prompted on the phone to state that I did not schedule this appointment and want it canceled. If I get charged for this, I'll be sure to challenge and escalate this.

I visited Makowitz dental in August and September of 2020 for a consultation and did not have a…read moregood experience. I would have let this go but a year and half later the terrible experience continues. The dentist I met with took images and then set up a remote consultation with me. She suggested that I needed $17,822 worth of work (6 crowns, 8 fillings, and at least 1 root canal) and that she should do all of this work, not an endodontist. When I expressed hesitancy, she told me that I needed to get started on the work right away, "or she would need to start pulling teeth." I sent the imaging and treatment plan to my oral surgeon, my orthodontist, and two DMV dentists. They all said that I didn't need the work recommended, and that getting it would do more harm to my oral health than good. I paid my bill, went to a new dentist, and moved on with my life. On March 15, 2022 I received a bill dated February 15, 2022 with no line items, for $500. I emailed the office, on the same thread we exchanged emails on in September 2020. They said that the reason the bill wasn't itemized "was due to the office sending you statements that received no response." I never received a bill by mail, email, or phone. They also said I was being billed because my dental carrier issued payment directly to me instead of to their dental office. My insurance has never paid me directly for anything, and I sent the office my dental EOB which show the negotiated rate and member responsibility. I work really hard, I pay my bills on time, and I try to take care of myself. I try not to write bad reviews for businesses because there is enough noise in the world. In this case, I'm so mad that I decided my experience was worth contributing to the noise.

They over-charge me and told me that I needed treatments that were not needed or required. I took off work for a "cleaning" and instead got a TWO HOUR conciliation about me needing a "deep cleaning" for $600 (not covered by my insurance) -- which is MetLife. Then had the audacity, to ask when could they could schedule me for my cleaning treatment!?! Little did they know, my sister is a dentist in Chicago and I had them email my X-RAYS to her for a second opinion (oh and they charge $35 for that). Please don't fall victim to the "fast talking Dr and cleaning technicians". I've never been so annoyed in my life. Luckily, I found another Dentist in Alexandria that was amazing (and complete opposite of DC Pearls Dental Boutique). Hit me up if you need a referal. Look at all these charges to my insurance!! Keep in mind this dentist was "in network" and u came in for a FREE cleaning. But since I was a "new patient" they wanted to milk my insurance. - See picture
