I was a patient of this dental office for eight years and would have given it a five star review…read moreuntil recently. I was in a period in my life where I did not have dental insurance so I was a cash pay patient. When I went in the last time, they insisted that I have x-rays and that if I didn't, they were not "running the business as they were taught ". So as it turns out, Dr. Peters wouldn't even clean my teeth! She talked to me like I was an errant child who was misbehaving. I have never experienced anything like this in my life. I reached out to the owner of the practice and she called me back and apologized for how things happened and even offered to do the x-rays for free. Although I greatly appreciate that, I have no desire to go back and have to see Dr. Peter's. So I advise if you go to this practice make sure you have health insurance or unlimited money because people who don't are not really welcome.

Thirty days ago, I scheduled new patient appointments online for both my spouse and myself. I received an email confirmation at the time of booking, followed by an automated reminder shortly before the appointment date. When I arrived--on time--for the first of the two appointments, I was informed that I was not on the schedule at all. The receptionist initially asked whether I might be at the wrong location. I showed her the confirmation email from their own online booking system, at which point she acknowledged that their online scheduling system does not work. This is not disclosed anywhere on their website, and the system presents itself as fully functional: accepting appointments, sending confirmations, and issuing reminders, creating a reasonable expectation that the appointment has been properly recorded. While the receptionist was courteous and apologetic and did reschedule me, a more serious concern arose during intake. When intake questions began, I asked whether the forms I had already completed online, including extensive personal, insurance, and medical history information, were available in my chart. I was told no, because the website does not track or transmit that information to the office. At that point, I had to stop the process. The intake forms required the upload of significant amounts of personally identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI): data that is protected under both federal and Texas law. The staff could not tell me: where that information is stored, whether it was transmitted securely, who has access to it, or whether it is retained, audited, or properly safeguarded at all. Given these uncertainties, I formally requested that a manager and/or the organization's privacy officer contact me. When an organization invites patients to submit legally protected data through its systems, it has a legal obligation to know where that data resides and how it is protected. Failing to do so raises serious concerns about privacy compliance and patient trust. This review reflects concern, not hostility, and I am hoping the organization takes this feedback seriously, addresses the operational and privacy gaps, and demonstrates compliance with applicable law so this review can be updated accordingly.

Parking: big free lot outside. Always a plus! First impression: visually, the office is very outdated and old-looking. I was initially taken aback when I arrived, because I have never been to an office that looked like this before. I had pretty low expectations because of this. The chairs in the waiting room are ripped up on the bottoms, so the material is sagging down to the floor. Decor is minimal inside, and it is stuffy and has no natural light. Same for the exam rooms in the back. The technology (exam chair, moveable lights, etc) look like they are all older than me! Dentist: I was seen by Dr. Stanley Lin, D.D.S. Right from the beginning, he was extremely polite and personable. He easily built great rapport and was thorough with my exam and cleaning. I felt immediately at ease and the appointment went by quickly. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Lin, just know that the office is not the most visually appealing one!

Unfortunately, I had a disappointing experience regarding an Invisalign agreement and gave the…read moreoffice multiple opportunities to resolve it. In December, I had a consultation for Invisalign and was quoted approximately $5,000 (paid in full, no insurance involved). During that consultation, I specifically asked whether whitening treatment could be included in the cost. After checking with the office, the dentist confirmed that it could. Near the end of my treatment, I asked about the whitening treatment and was given take-home whitening gel. This was not what I understood to be included, so I later texted the dentist to clarify. He acknowledged the misunderstanding and agreed to provide an in-office treatment at a future appointment. At the next appointment, I received what the office described as a short "maintenance" whitening treatment. When I explained again that I had expected a full in-office whitening treatment, I was told that the treatment I was referring to normally costs around $700 and could only be offered to me at half price. My frustration is not about the cost of whitening itself -- it's that I specifically asked whether whitening treatment (not a maintenance one) could be included before agreeing to move forward with Invisalign, and I was told yes. I raised the issue multiple times and do not feel it was ever meaningfully resolved. What was especially frustrating is that even the reduced "maintenance" whitening treatment the office claimed they originally intended to provide was never consistently followed through on. At my final retainer appointment, there was no mention of whitening at all despite the prior discussions and assurances. The Invisalign results themselves turned out well, but I was disappointed by how this situation was handled and by the lack of accountability regarding what had originally been agreed upon. I'm including screenshots of the text conversation referenced above so others can make their own informed judgment.

In the chair, Dr. Shah's upbeat energy and meticulous focus transformed my nerves into relief. He walked me through each step, laid out clear choices (no upsells, no pressure), and eased the sensitivity with a gentle, confident touch that made it obvious I was in expert hands. If you're after genuine care, transparent options, and a dentist who respects your time, comfort, and wallet, look no further than Dr. Shah and the Austin Dental Arts team.
