I'll start by saying, I admittedly haven't taken great care of my teeth for the bulk of my life…read more Sure, I brush them multiple times a day but at 33 years old, I am definitely in dire need of braces, a good cleaning, and to get some dental disease under control. One issue I had recently didn't go away like I hoped it would. I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth and my bottom right one began hurting like a mother. That went on for a week while I waiting for an appointment with my normal dentist (not this office, by the way), during which time the pain was SO bad, I had to go to the ER at 1am. My dentist took one look at my mouth and said "yep, it needs to come out, but we can't do it here, you need an oral surgeon." They refused to give me more than 1 day's worth of pain meds, kept me on the wrong dose of antibiotics, and gave me an appointment for a consultation TWO WEEKS away. Within two DAYS the pain was so bad, I seriously considered nefarious means of getting pain meds vs. just ripping the tooth out myself. I called my dentist in tears and they tried one last time to refer me to somewhere else...which turned out to be Ashok Vareenki's office. I was able to be seen a week sooner, which was better than I was going to get anywhere else. The appointment was set for the 4th and I was under the impression they would take the tooth out that day (this was coming from my regular dentist, who made the appointment for me). A receptionist from Dr. Vareenki's office called me on 2/1 to confirm my appointment and I was informed it was only for consultation, NOT the surgery. I was distraught. I hadn't been able to sleep, eat, or take care of my newborn in 2 weeks already and I was at the end of my rope with the pain. I begged them to see me early for a consultation so that I could just get the tooth out. Alma at the front desk (I hope that's her name and I hope I spelled it right) was an absolute ANGEL. She tooth my pain seriously and got me in for a consult the same day with Dr. Vanderbeek. He diagnosed me with pericoronitis and an impacted tooth, and agreed surgery was the cure. Everyone I interacted with at my consultation from the front desk, to the dental nurse, to the doctor, to the financial coordinator was kind, professional, and focused on helping me get out of pain ASAP. I'm TERRIFIED of dentists and they put me immediately at ease. They even kept my original appointment for 2/4 and turned it into a surgical appointment. Which is good because a day before surgery, my tooth finally abscessed and drained, so there was definitely a nasty infection going on. So today, I had my surgery, and you know...for getting teeth ripped out of my face, it was actually a pleasant experience. They talked me through what they were going to do, eased my fears, and made it a painless event. FINALLY, NO MORE PAIN. I mean, I'm sore from the surgery and the swelling, but that's to be expected. I still need my last 2 wisdom teeth out as well as another tooth removed that's been dead for some time. I will definitely be coming back to Dr. Vanderbeek and his team when I'm going to get that done! So 5 stars because: -They are accommodating -They are empathetic and compassionate to your pain -They take you seriously and you feel heard instead of ignored -They make the process quick and comfortable -Their pricing is reasonable (another dentist was trying to charge my husband the same cost FOR TWO FILLINGS as I was charged for general anesthesia and two wisdom teeth removals!) Thank you for a pleasant dentistry experience, guys!

5 star experience all around! The patient care coordinator was easy to work with and provided…read moreuseful information to prepare me for possible treatment as we were only scheduling a consult to start. Very glad I took her advice and went in prepared for treatment. Dr. Ashok Vareenki was very professional while still making me feel comfortable and relaxed at the same time. Everyone I came in contact with was very kind and professional explaining everything they were doing and why. I would highly recommend this office!

Doc did an amazing job and made removing all four wisdom teeth feel quick and easy and was encouraging throughout the whole thing. Everything went smoothly, and I'm really happy with how the procedure went. I definitely recommend this place

After going to the same dentist in my hometown, I decided to try MDC due to the long commute from…read moremy old one. My first appointment/exam, doc said a tooth needs a crown. Sure, so we made the appointment along with a filling. Two weeks later, doc says that tooth suddenly needs a root canal after he asked if there was pain. **Mind you, I made it clear there was pain in the initial paperwork and at the very first appointment.** I was caught off guard and nervous but took the risk and went with the root canal on the spot. Days followed with excruciating pain and discomfort as expected from a root canal but the temporary crown was sharp along the sides, hurting my tongue and gums. I go to a different dentist (bc mdc isn't open weekends) who adjusted it for me and prescribed meds since I couldn't sleep for days due to the pain. Weeks later, the temporary crown breaks. I let them know it's broken and I'm told doc is on vacation the entire week but they have the permanent crown...so no one else is capable of putting one in except him, cool. (Later I was told the entire office was on vacation that week) So I went through that week with a broken crown, hoping it doesn't get infected. Final appointment, it was very busy in office. I wait 1 hour for doc and fell asleep in the chair (I've been up since 4:30am for work). I could hear another patient complaining and waiting to be seen as well. If you're going to be this busy, at least hire another dentist to help out instead of a dozen assistants. Adjusting the crown to my bite took ages. I give up and say it's fine (it wasn't, I was over it) so I could just ask a new dental office to adjust it for me. Majority of the staff and reception were super kind and attentive. The ones I made contact with via call/text made it seem like it was a chore to reach back to me at times. Shoutout to the long haired blonde assistant who helped me first, she's extremely kind and gentle with patient care. However, a different assistant that finished off my crown cleanup nearly cut my lip with the tool, overall seemed unapologetic, dismissive, wanting to go home type of mood (me too kid). I'm never one to "Karen" and complain at all but holyyy this was the worst dental experience I've ever had. If you need a root canal, go to an endodontist but anything else may get done well here...I won't be back though.
