    My smile has been refreshed thanks to Dr. Alani and her staff. The cosmetic and preventive dental care is top notch.

    LOVE! Dr. Alani, her staff ( and Piper the pup) are AWESOME!! Professional, discerning, patient with a perfectionist, and for those that may be anxious about visiting the dentist, Piper will come cuddle you!

    Thank you to Dr Alani & her amazing team for all their wonderful hard work! Everyone including & especially Piper were so sweet, helpful, calming, understanding, honest, pleasant patient, & precise & knowledgeable ! Having gone to many different dentist over my 50 plus years, I haven't found until now such a great team that work all together for the common goal of helping & making people feel better about themself.. Dr Alani & her team are honest & precise! They truly cared about us making it easy when scheduling my appointment days & times! (driving from Magnolia to Galleria with traffic isn't easy. ) Dr Alani made any & all adjustments to make sure everything was done perfectly. (lab work) My husband & I are elated to find a dentist & team that truly care about the patients and not only the bottom line.. My husband still has some more work to do but with Dr Alanis team he is more comfortable with much less stress & anxiety about going. Having Piper on the staff was amazing experience & watching my husband go from having anxiety to an instant calm was awesome to experience.. we ARE dog lovers though I didn't realize how calming they actually keep us during times of stressfull situations..He has a phobia about Dentist & Drs but it's mostly the needles & shots) I think more hospitals and Dentists & Drs should follow Dr Alani example as it was truly a great experience! Dr Alani team worked with me & my insurance situation (which is never fun!) I would definitely recommend her & her hard working team to help you for all your dental needs! Thank you Dr Alani for all your honest wonderful hard work!

    I don't like writing bad reviews and always focus on the positive but this was a Very disappointing…read moreexperience. James Herbst provided a recommendation on my teeth to get a filling that was not at all necessary as I got two other opinions from prominent dentists who rejected the need. Thank goodness for the additional opinions!! Also what bothered me greatly was he kept touching my shoulder. Probably 3-4 times! I just wanted to run away! He didn't even review the xrays with me which I have never seen happen in all my years of going to the dentist in various states. I have never felt so uncomfortable.

    I went to Dr. Herbst DDS (Dr. H. ) for the first time because he was on my dental plan and his…read moreproximity to my residence. Dr. Herbst Informed me that I needed two crowns on my upper left molars. The reason I went to him was that I was experiencing pain and pustules of pus on one of the two molar crowns in question. Several days later, I informed Dr. H. that I was still in pain subsequent to the prescription antibiotic mouth wash he prescribed for me. He informed me that the pain would go away once the new crown arrived. The new crown arrived and I informed him that I had to re-order additional antibiotic mouthwash and my tooth was still in pain. He insisted that everything will be fine once He inserted the new crown. I was very reluctant to have the new crown place over my aching tooth. I wanted him to realize that I absolutely did not want the new crown without further investigation. I informed him that I requested a second opinion from my doctor at MD Anderson. I was confident that he would stop with my request. Dr. H proceeded to Informed me in a manner of authority that I did not have cancer and placed the new crown over my infected root canal. After a Short time, my new crown was seeping puss. When I returned to see him he became very nervous and started to call other dental specialists. I walked out informing him that I would not trust anyone he recommended. Needless to say, my new crown and root canal had to be extracted at great cost. I am very disappointed in this dentist. I could have filed a complaint with the Texas State Board of Dental Examiners. I just hope that this negative experience will make Dr. H realize that he must have more respect in listening to his female patients, in lieu of focusing on the remuneration he will receive by inserting a new crown.
