That being said, there is a reason why my spouse came out of the appt crying, and I came out of mine terrified. To start, we waited an hour to be seen (our appointment started one hour late). Then, we each had our appointment (X-rays and pictures taken by an assistant). When Dr. Hashemi came in, she did not look inside my mouth. Not ONCE. I have OCD, and I brush and floss every single day, so I figured I would need my yearly cleaning and a repair on a filling that fell out, not much more. Instead, Dr. Hashemi scared the crap out of me by telling me that: 1) I needed a cleaning EVERY THREE MONTHS. 2) My next appointment would consist of a DEEP cleaning, because otherwise there was no way to know if I was experiencing bone loss for my back molars. She said there could be bacteria getting trapped between my gum and my tooth, and that if I lost bone due to the bacteria, I could need very expensive procedures down the line. After describing to me all the "possible" problems and scary consequences of my HEALTHY teeth, she left the room and never returned. A staff member gave me the price breakdown, but the doctor never returned to discuss it. I had so many more questions than before I had the appointment. My spouse had a big cavity and was told that she needed a crown, possibly even a root canal (she said that there was no way to know for sure until the day of the procedure). She also "needed" more cleanings and a deep clean. We both left feeling horrible and deeply concerned about our teeth. We thankfully followed our gut and canceled the future appointments. We have since been to a new dentist, and surprise... 1) My teeth are so clean that my cleaning took 4 minutes TOTAL. 2) I absolutely do NOT need a deep cleaning, and the dentist could tell from the X-rays and from looking at them himself that there is absolutely no problem with my gums and back molars, let alone bone loss. 3) I certainly do not need a cleaning every three months. In fact, I need to brush less or I will damage my enamel. 4) I have two small cavities that Dr. Hashemi never even mentioned. My new dentist and I were actually surprised I had any cavities at all given how clean my teeth are and how well I floss. 5) My spouse does NOT need a crown, just a big filling. And also does not need a cleaning every three months, nor a deep clean. As someone else said here in a review, at her office most patients "need" a deep cleaning. If you are reading this, I suggest that you take the time to read other reviews - you'll see how often the words "deep cleaning" come up. It is not a coincidence. I can't believe this was our experience given all the good reviews. I feel chills just imagining what other unnecessary procedures we would have ended up with if we continued going here. Scare tactics are the main service we received here.

Everything about this dental group is always fantastic. The staff here are always inviting, the dr communication & work with Adam & Mindy is always proficient, clear and very professional.

The technology here always seems to be up-to-date with the best. Simply A+ Now nobody ever likes going to a dentist for major work, but the Garfinkle Dental Team just seems to make it all go much easier. Trust me I know, before going to this dentist I went through several over the years that were actually not good. I could write for days about this unfortunately. So much work I have/had done in the past has now failed or needed to be redone. I KNOW when I go to Garfinkle Family Dental that the work will get done right. Never once have I ever experienced a problem here. Thank you so much for being a fantastic dental team. Thank you so much for all you do for my families dental heath. Highly Recommended! 5 Stars

Down the street from where we were staying was Agoura Dental so I called and they were kind enough to squeeze us in later in the day! We arrived at the scheduled time, were greeted by a super friendly woman behind the desk named Frances, filled out some paper work, and waited briefly. My wife was then greeted by an equally kind and helpful woman named Amanda and brought her into the room to see the Dr. All she wanted was to have the sharp edge smoothed out before our journey and Dr. Choroomi accommodated her beautifully. My wife was in and out in no time. And ... AND... when we went to pay we were told, "no problem, there's no charge for this!" Whaaaat?!?? "Yes, Dr Choroomi said no charge." That doesnt happen these days, no matter how fast and easy it is! THANK YOU Agoura Dental for being so kind and accommodating, we so appreciate all of you!

Extremely disappointing and unprofessional experience…read more My children's original appointment earlier this month was not honored because the office claimed there was no appointment in their system, even though I had scheduled it by phone. We were rescheduled and came back again. This time, I waited approximately two hours with two young children after completing the paperwork. Other people were being taken while we continued to sit there. When I finally asked the front desk what was happening, the employee was rude, dismissive, and told me we would have to wait another 1 to 1.5 hours. No apology. No explanation. No respect. This is not how a dental office should treat families or children. The front desk conduct was unacceptable, and the office seemed completely disorganized. I left feeling that our time and my children did not matter at all. I would not trust this office with my family's dental care.

Prior to visiting Dr. Subka for the first time, I had one dentist my entire life. I came to Dr…read more Subka to get her opinion on some fillings I had recently gotten and for a receding gum line. I was recommended by a friend to check out Dr. Subka and upon my first visit... I was so impressed by how nice, professional, and efficient the entire staff is. The technology & equipment here is so impressive and on a much higher level of accuracy from what I was used to. Dr. Subka is SO kind, intelligent, and really has this place running like a well oiled machine. I just went back for my second appointment a couple days ago. She replaced two fillings from my previous dentist and this is the BEST my teeth have felt in months. I'm just really thankful to have met Dr. Subka and everyone on the entire team. Coming to this office is a pleasure and I would recommend this crew to anyone. Thank you all!!!

I booked a cleaning based on the complimentary new patient consultation and x-ray advertised on the…read morewebsite. After the appointment, I was billed $277, in addition to the cleaning, for a new patient exam and x-rays. When I contacted billing about the discrepancy, I was told the advertised offer only applies to patients with "something like a toothache," which is not stated anywhere in the ad. I was also told that because multiple x-rays were taken rather than a single x-ray, the promotion no longer applied. I asked whether these distinctions were documented anywhere in writing, and I was told they were not. During the exam, I was not informed that a set of x-rays would be taken that would void the advertised offer. When I questioned the charge afterward, I was told it was my responsibility as the patient to ask whether the promotion applied at the time the x-rays were taken, despite clear advertising with no disclosed exclusions. I was also told I was being aggressive for raising the question. Overall, the experience, particularly with the advertising and billing process, made me feel uncomfortable and taken advantage of. If you come here, get written confirmation of all costs and what any advertised promotions actually include before agreeing to treatment. EDIT IN REPLY TO THE BUSINESS: I want to clarify a few factual points in their response for accuracy. They state that "concerns regarding billing were first brought to our attention nearly two months after the appointment." This is incorrect. Billing concerns were raised on the day of the appointment and were reiterated again during my call with them on the day this review was posted, just under a month and a half since the appointment, a period that included Christmas and the holidays. Characterizing this as nearly two months later is inaccurate. They also state that the complimentary consultation and x-ray applies only to specific diagnostic visits and excludes comprehensive exams and a full set of x-rays. None of these limitations are disclosed on the website advertisement, nor were they explained to me in writing or in person prior to treatment. These distinctions were communicated only after billing was questioned. Additionally, their response states that all new patients are provided a comprehensive exam and a full set of x-rays. This directly conflicts with the website advertisement stating "New Patients: Complimentary Consult and X-Ray," without any clarification that this refers only to a single image or excludes the standard x-rays they state all new patients receive. The core issue remains the same. An advertised offer with no stated exclusions was used to book the appointment, and the terms that voided that offer were explained only after charges were incurred. Being told afterward that it was my responsibility to ask whether the promotion applied is inconsistent with transparent pricing.

I would like to share my recent experience at Sekhon Dental…read more I started seeking options for dental implants as my 15-year-old fixed bridges (upper and lower) will need replacement soon. While anxiety about the procedure kept me from making an appointment sooner, I am so glad I chose Dr. Navjot Sekhon. During the initial consultation and examination, she took the time to thoroughly explain my options; and her gentle manner made me feel much more comfortable. Additionally, the entire office staff was kind, knowledgeable, and patient with all of my questions. As I get ready to start the process soon, I firmly believe I am in good hands at Sekhon Dental, and would highly recommend.

I have been going to Thousand Oaks Dental for many years and have always gotten wonderful care (…read moreDeanne the hygienist is phenomenal!). Not too long ago Dr. Luthra joined the practice when Dr. Jan Beierle retired. Today I had to have a filling replaced and I am so happy with Dr. Luthra. I was really nervous going in because I hate getting Novacaine and usually find that for whatever reason I stay numbed for a crazy long time after getting a filling. Dr. Luthra was great. He not only put up with my nervous bullshit but numbed the tooth directly and here I am an hour later feeling perfectly normal with no residual numbing. Really nice guy and obviously quite skilled. Definitely recommend.

When I learned that the Drs. Beierle were retiring, I wondered how things might change. It has been my happy experience to see that the practice continues to grow in heart and care - the physical space and each person who works there have created such an inviting atmosphere that I believe it only attracts professionals who the same desire for excellent, compassionate care. Over the last three years, I made a decision with counseling and support from this office to try to correct bite deficiencies with braces so that I can repair and preserve my teeth and smile unashamedly again. It was a tough enough decision on its own, but made tougher by its beginning just about a month before the whole country closed down due to the Covid pandemic. Over this time, I have had numerous calls from the office saying, Dr. Vik or Dr. Joe would like to see me to check on my progress. There has never been a charge for those calls and visits, and recently Dr. Vik arranged his schedule so that he could attend my orthodontic appointment at a different practice so that he could ask questions, offer his observations and to help him prepare for the work I want him to do after my braces are removed. This is extraordinary care! I told my long-serving Dental Hygienist, Deanne recently how much I appreciate that she and the doctors are always observing, always encouraging, and always advocating for their patients. It makes such a difference. Deanne has become a good and trusted friend. At the risk of sounding crazy, I LOVE going to (this) dental office!! I absolutely love this practice and the people who serve us there! I recommend this practice without any reservation!

Very disappointing experience with Sheila …read more My family and I have used this clinic since they opened seven or eight years ago . We go every couple of months for dental cleanings.Sadly, at least for us has stopped working out and we will definitely move on. This time the cleaning went array from the get go with no dental pocket tooth by tooth measurement for the chart, Then instead of manual scaling tooth by tooth she opted for cavitron scaling machine and continuous lectured me about deeper cleaning offering to do it right there and then. When I refused instead of systematically cleaning each tooth she proceeded to skip some so I had to literally ask her to go back and clean them. The polishing didn't go much better with her literally having to wipe off my teeth with a tissue all the excess polish . Overall , it felt rushed and highly unprofessional when it comes to upselling more pricey services .

Very disappointing experience with Dr. Aleena Khan at this location…read more My current dental insurance no longer covers my previous dentist, so I searched within my insurance network and selected this office because it was conveniently located near my home. I called and scheduled an appointment for a routine dental cleaning. During my visit, I had an experience similar to what several other reviewers have described. Instead of receiving the regular cleaning I was asked to scheduled, I felt pressured to additional treatments, including a deep cleaning and tooth extraction recommendations. The office declined to provide the standard cleaning that is covered by my insurance and instead focused on services that would require significant out-of-pocket expenses. As a patient, I left with the impression that generating additional revenue was prioritized over providing the preventive care I requested. The appointment ended up being a waste of my time and resulted in an insurance claim without the service I originally sought. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this office to others seeking routine dental care.
