Fantastic experience: Pushpa is very kind and helpful! Her warm communication and respectful attitude made me feel completely comfortable.

I truly appreciate her kindness and professionalism!
Fantastic experience: I had an emergency visit today, Bupa Hornsby was great. The manner and gentleness of Dr Anthony Chung was exceptional. I highly recommend this surgery. Probably the best dental experience I have ever had.
Fantastic experience: Simple, quick, easy. Booked apointment was on time and the checkup was easy going without anything bad.
Negative experience: I came at 15:38 today, been told need to make appointment for claim when no other people was waiting. Later on, I went back want to asking something else, she just ignored me. It’s really very bad experience.

Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience at the bupa dental clinic at hornsby with my whole family. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, especially the receptionist, Pushpa, who was extremely helpful. They’re very kid-friendly and patient, giving plenty of time for the kids during their visit. They also take the time to explain everything in detail, which made my son feel comfortable and happy. He’s already looking forward to his next appointment!
Negative experience: Poor customer service.
Fantastic experience: Found a hygienist who is gentle and listens to her patient. I get my teeth cleaned twice a year. My gums are very sensitive and Sareh Firouzjaei (Bupa Hygienist) and her assistant Radhika were quick and thorough. Would definitely recommend both of them.
Fantastic experience: Great experience, Dr Butnejski explained everything to me clearly and was able to fix the problems I was having with my tooth. Would definitely recommend
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and excellent service. Dr Shruti Saxena is very kind and she clearly explained the procedures required and gave me the best option. The overall experience was very wonderful with her. Highly recommend! Also 5 stars for receptionist Pushpa, she is extremely helpful for patients.
Fantastic experience: Such a positive experience with Dr. Araventh. He’s thorough, caring and genuinely checks in on how you’re feeling the whole way through. You can tell he loves what he does and it makes a big difference. Also big thanks to Pushpa at reception, she’s friendly, helping and always seems so lively. Loved my experience there!
Negative experience: Absolutely unacceptable. During a simple routine cleaning, the dentist nicked the inside flesh of my daughter’s lower lip, leaving her with painful ulcers. She is now struggling to eat, talk, and even sleep. What should have been a basic check-up has caused her unnecessary pain and distress. The rushed, careless treatment has left us shocked and deeply disappointed. We trusted this clinic because it’s Bupa-approved, but we will never return.

Fantastic experience: If I could give a 10 I would. By far the best dentist in my life of terrible ones. Araventh is an original - super empathetic and professional. This guy is a keeper and his support team also 10/10 Thank you Bupa management - look after this guy he is gold.
Fantastic experience: This was our first experience with Bupa Dental, and it was wonderful. The team is very professional. My son has anxiety and a phobia of dentists, but Dr. Ara and the staff were extremely patient and caring. They managed to clean his teeth and create a treatment plan in a calm and supportive way.
Fantastic experience: I can honestly say I became a Bupa member because of Pushpa at the Bupa Hornsby store. I walked in just looking for a quick dental check-up for my daughter, ready to pay full price since I didn’t have dental cover. Pushpa greeted us with such warmth and kindness, then explained how we could get the check-up for free by joining Bupa. She was very honest too — saying we could cancel anytime if we weren’t happy. I signed up on the same hour, thinking I might cancel after the appointment. But when we came back, Pushpa again welcomed us like old friends and recommended the best dentist for our situation. The experience at the clinic was excellent, and I was so impressed that I moved my entire health cover to Bupa within the same week. Pushpa is genuinely caring, incredibly helpful, and goes above and beyond for customers. People like her make all the difference — thank you, Pushpa!
Fantastic experience: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t thank Dr. Ara ( Dr. Araventh Thavavaran) enough for his incredible care and professionalism. He helped me during a time of urgent need. He provided top-notch dental care and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. It’s rare to find a dentist who combines such genuine compassion with outstanding skill. Thank you, Dr. Ara, for your excellent service — I am very grateful!
Fantastic experience: I'm a new patient check-up & clean. Even my English is not really well, Sareh is very nice for answering my questions about insurance. I'm so appreciate!
Fantastic experience: Thanks Dr. Shruti for her professional treatment. I really appreciate it.
Fantastic experience: I’ve had consistently excellent experiences at Bupa Dental Hornsby, and a big part of that is thanks to the wonderful team. Kim is outstanding — gentle, thorough, and very professional. She takes time to explain everything clearly and puts you completely at ease. My dental cleanings have never been more comfortable. Receptionists Alla and Pushpa are always friendly, helpful, and efficient. From making appointments to welcoming patients, they go above and beyond to make the whole visit smooth and stress-free. A fantastic team that truly cares about their patients. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: My first dental experience in over 5 years and I cannot express enough gratitude for Dr. Sarah. She made me feel extremely comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire visit. Her calm, professional approach instantly eased my nerves, and she took the time to explain everything clearly. I left feeling confident and well cared for. Highly recommend her to anyone who might be anxious about going to the dentist!
Fantastic experience: Always have a good experience at BUPA Dental in Hornsby. I have had a positive experience recently with Kim,. She was thorough with her job and explained everything very well. Also provided good advice about taking care of my teeth. Receptionist Pushpa was very helpful while booking the appointment as well as at the time of my appointment. Overall very pleasant experience.

Fantastic experience: Quick clean, very nice staff
Fantastic experience: Bupa Dental Hornsby has highly professional staff.I feel lucky to be a patient of Dr Shruti and to have met such a friendly and experienced team.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend the Bupa dentist in Hornsby Westfield. They have fantastic technology, Dr Victor is kind and caring, and the reception staff go above and beyond! You don't have to be a Bupa customer, but 'Extras' will cover your regular check-ups if you have it!
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at Bupa Dental Hornsby, thanks to the exceptional customer service provided by Nassrin, Sareh, and Pushpa. They were professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and well taken care of. Thank you so much for your outstanding service! Highly recommended.
Negative experience: I booked an appointment to have my teeth cleaned 6 months prior and when I arrived for my clean the practice put one of their friends in my time slot. They were going to leave me waiting for 50min to see the next available dentist, absolutely shocking service. I won’t ever use them again!

Negative experience: Shame on the dentist for charging an examination fee when no exam took place for my child. The receptionist said I'm only following the dentist and it was 2 vs 1. Never coming back. My other child had a 'partial' clean and wanted them to come back another time - DODGY. WARNING: Check your receipts because you're the one paying the private insurance.

Fantastic experience: 11th Dec 2024 - My Dr Shruti 6 monthly visit today - Always a friendly, happy & pleasant experience. Thank you so much Dr Shruti and BUPA Dental Hornsby. So much more than just an excellent Dentist :) Nov 2022 - Thank you Dr Shruti & Ash for making the Tooth Filling I received today such an easy and pain free experience. I am impressed with Dr Shruti's knowledge & diligence in identifying this small tooth decay under my gum (& repairing it before it became a big tooth decay). Dr Shruti - You are an excellent dentist. May 2022 - Dr Shruti is a beaut dentist, she makes the effort to explain what she is doing & where I can improve with my dental care. I have just been to see Dr Shruti Saxena at Bupa Dental Hornsby again for my latest dental check up. Dr Shruti goes to the next level of excellent service - I am in my 60's, Dr Shruti noticed from a dental XRay (a while back), that I had sinus blockage, and provided me with a reference should I wish to get this looked at. I had lived with very uncomfortable sinus all my life - after a minor surgery, the problem is now fixed - Thank you Dr Shruti :) My older Review - I have been seeing Dr Shruti Saxena at Bupa Dental Hornsby for many years. Dr Shruti is very friendly and a very good dentist, she takes the time to explain what dental care I need to improve. I highly recommend Dr Shruti and Bupa Dental Hornsby. Thank you Dr Shruti.
Fantastic experience: We’ve been visiting Bupa Dental, Hornsby as a family, and the experience has been fantastic for all of us! It’s rare to find a dentist that’s equally great for kids and adults, but Dr Shruti Saxena has nailed it. We’re so glad to have found her. I recommend her highly for any family looking for exceptional dental care! The entire team is friendly, professional, and wonderful. Pushpa at the reception desk makes everything so smooth, from booking appointments to payments and any rescheduling if needed.
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience at Bupa Dental Hornsby last Friday. Alla at reception was so welcoming and helpful, and Dr. Shruti was professional, gentle, and thorough. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: My 5-year-old had a great experience with Sareh Adabi! She was so patient and made everything easy and comfortable. Sareh explained everything in a way my daughter could understand, and the cleaning was gentle but thorough – highly recommend Sareh for anyone with kids!"
Fantastic experience: I recently visited Bupa Dental Hornsby and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the moment I walked in, Puspa at the front desk made me feel welcomed and comfortable. She was incredibly friendly, efficient, and went out of her way to answer my questions and handle any paperwork seamlessly. Dr. Shruti was equally impressive. She took the time to thoroughly explain every part of the procedure, ensuring I felt informed and at ease. Her gentle approach and genuine care made a typically nerve-wracking experience so much better. I felt confident that I was in skilled, compassionate hands throughout my visit. Overall, the team at Bupa Dental Hornsby has truly created a warm, professional, and patient-centered environment. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for top-notch dental care with a personal touch!
Fantastic experience: It was my first time to have my dental appointment at Bupa dental Hornby. The receptionist are welcoming and accomodating. Sarah is very informative and detailed about my teeth condition,No pain during the procedure. Rose the dental assistant is very helpful and they both ensure my comfort. All in all it was a wonderful and pleasant experience for me.
Negative experience: terrible cleaning experience, my teeth bleeding after the clean. And it never happened before when I clean in private dental hospital. And it’s so fast, only 5-10 min. Feel like she skipped a lot of my teeth. And when they polishing my teeth, doing it in a rush and the polishing gel spilled on my face♂️♂️ disappointed won’t come back again

Overall procedure was so ease for me very helpful staffs while they explain each and every procedure. Thank you very much. you guys are doing a great Job✨
Fantastic experience: If you live in the vicinity of Hornsby and looking for a dentist, I would highly recommend Bupa Dental Hornsby. Practice team from practice manager, front of house to dentists are always welcoming, maybe one or two might seem less approachable but generally OVERALL GREAT customer and patient service. Range of treatments provided at the practice is great! All the dental practitioners ranging from their dental therapists/hygienist to Dentist, comes with lots of experience and are able to advice you of your general dental health condition(s) accordingly. Felt safe in their hands having a few different procedures done over the years from fillings, crowns, mouth guards, basic 6monthly cleans etc. My dentist Dr Shruti is fantastic! She is ever so gentle and caring! And advices us like a family member and that is what I like most about my dentist! Location is easy to get to, abundance of parking in Westfield Hornsby(first 3hours free) and easily accessible by train alighting at Hornsby train station. They are located on the same floor as Target in Westfield and right next to one of the street level entry/exit of the mall.
Negative experience: In my experience, I took my boy to clean teeth couple days ago. just under 5 min spent 270 dollars. I can't belive what happened..... Although, I paid insurence, oh no~ Does it Australia style? or this dental style?

Fantastic experience: Initially walking into the practice I was welcomed warmly by the front desk staff members. The practice was well presented, very clean & tidy. I had a wonderful experience as a patient at Bupa Dental Hornsby. I seen Kim & Dr Ara who both exceeded my expectations & made me feel very comfortable. I will definitely be a returning patient of the practice.
Negative experience: In my over 6 years of working in the service industry and my 26 years of life on this planet, I have never witnessed nor received such a disgusting level of service. I was quoted $60 for 4 wisdom teeth to be removed, the receptionist exclaimed, my goodness such good cover you have. I confirmed three times with them as two other receptionist watched this interaction take place and said nothing. I later called to have intravenous sedation added to my wisdom teeth removal. When I attended for this removal, the sedation was not added to my appointment and I elected for local anesthetic. AFTER the teeth were removed they told me it was the case that I was to be covered for $60 off a $1800 bill. THEY WERE OFF BY A MARGIN OF 30 TIMES. Despicable level of service, completely unacceptable, I would literally never ever recommend anyone interact with the receptionists there they are utterly incompetent.
Good morning, Jay.

Fantastic experience: Always have a good experience at BUPA Dental in Hornsby. A few of my family members come here and recommended me to and I’m really glad they did. I have had a positive experience with my dental work with Dr Shruti and cleaning with Kim, they are both so friendly and so are the ladies at the reception. Cami was very kind in helping me with suggesting health insurance to make my life easier. It’s always a pleasant experience here because of these ladies instead of what would otherwise be something quite daunting.
Fantastic experience: I consulted Dr Anthony yesterday. I appreciate his patience while he guided me at the different stages for my treatment plan. There were a lot of people in the practice yesterday. I would also like to appreciate the lady at the reception, Nidhi Devi. She eased out the crowd by attending everyone individually. The reception lady was very wonderful and kind. She helped me with my digital card as I forgot my bupa card at home. It saved my time.I really recommend bupa dental Hornsby.
Fantastic experience: Have been coming to Bupa dental for a long time. The service has always been excellent and cannot be faulted. DR Saxena has been caring and also provided professional advice which suits our circumstances. She also provides overall care to make sure we are in the best care possible. The front of house is professional and prompt. We never had to wait more than 5 mins for our appointment. Definitely would recommend Bupa dental Hornsby.
Fantastic experience: The whole staff were amazing and Dr Ara Thavavaran was proficient and very caring - by far and away THE best dentist I have ever seen. Kami and Alla on the front desk were exceptional!!!!
Fantastic experience: A great experience going to BUPA Dental at Hornsby. Firstly we were given an appointment the same week. Pushpa at the reception is very knowledgeable, friendly and scheduled our appointment and billing promptly and efficiently. Next we were greeted by the most friendly doctor. Dr. Shruti and her team were so hospitable. I felt we have been her patients for years! She calmly explained the process and showed me the problem areas. Gave excellent suggestions for maintenance. And above all she had a feather touch, barely felt any discomfort or pain. She was excellent with my 7yo as well. We were in an out in 30min. Going to a dentist has never been this easy. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Very professional dentists and easy booking system.
Negative experience: One of the worst dentist I sent my kids to.. the worst customer service on the front desk and my daughter is now traumatised from this dentist

Fantastic experience: Great staff and immaculate cleaning by Kim. Fantastic experience, found my new Dentist!
Fantastic experience: Just recently i had my first check up and clean done at this clinic by Dr. Shruti and Gulbeer. Dr. Shruti is definitely one of the most experienced dentist i have ever met. She did a thorough check and provided me with best treatment plans and Hygienist Gulbeer did an amazing work in cleaning. She was very gentle, focused and kept me informed throughout the process. The clinic environment is homely. Their front desk staff are humble, patient and highly professional, especially Kami & Alla.
Fantastic experience: My experience at Bupa Dental Hornsby was truly exceptional. From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere that immediately put me at ease. Special mention to Kami who is not only highly professional but also incredibly personable. She really helps to address to any of your questions or concerns. I had misplaced my invoice and requested her to provide me with a copy and she instantly helped me with it. I would also extend my thanks to Dr. Ara who is one of the most skilled and knowledgeable dentists I have come across. He thoroughly explained every step of the process, making sure I understood my treatment options and the reasons behind his recommendations. I appreciated his transparency and honesty and for making the entire process smooth. Thank you both for providing me with such a remarkable dental experience :).
Fantastic experience: Cleaning / Checkup - very nice service and didn’t rush. Full checkup and good care. It was one of the most pain free cleanup ever since the staff was not rushing. Dr accomodate cleanup visit to do a checkup. Asked for checks on gaps before proceeding with exams.
Fantastic experience: Great experience
Fantastic experience: Thank you very much for taking the time to listen & for taking care of us… it is very much appreciated ! Good service, as always…. see you soon!
Fantastic experience: Dr Victor Butnejski is an excellent dentist.He always takes the time to explain all the procedures and provides good and valuable advice. Dr Butnejski is extremely professional, thorough and caring and has taken good care of my teeth and those of my family. He did a fantastic job on my crowns and fillings and I have been very satisfied with them. He also goes the extra mile to make you feel really comfortable. I would highly recommend Dr Butnejski to everyone - he is the best dentist that my family have ever had. Dr Butnejski is an asset to Bupa dental and we are blessed to have found him.
Fantastic experience: I am so happy and excited i have finally found a wonderful dentist. Everyone is so helpful and kind. Im really looking forward to my next visit. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Shruti Saxena at BUPA dental Hornsby was excellent with our child who rated her as a 5 star dentist! The treatment involved administering anaesthetic through a needle and our child did not feel any pain whatsoever!! Shruti’s technical skills and bedside manner made it a positive experience for the family!
Fantastic experience: Visited Bupa Dental for a check up and teeth whitening. Staff managed to fit me in before the end of the year. Could not be happier with the result of the teeth whitening. 10/10
Fantastic experience: This is the best dentist i have ever been to in my life and trust me i have been to alot, the staff are orginized and friendly, they are always on time, Dr Arash Shahabi is amzing he attention to detail , profesionalism and skills are umbeliviable and he is painless even when haveing crowns , implants and root canels he makes the process so easy and i wouldnt have anyone elese work on my teeth as no ne even come close to him and his highgly trained skills. my new teeth and smole are awsome and i love them , also Bupa dental is very resonable priced also so no issues there.
Fantastic experience: My family and I all go to see Dr Shruti at Pupa dental and Dr Shruti is always excellent. She is very professional, thoughtful and gentle with the children. She has always been able to put the kids at ease by explaining everything and making them feel comfortable. Her calming and friendly manner always puts us all at ease and we know we’re in safe hands.
Positive experience: Wonderful experience with the doctors - very nice consultative approach. However the receptionist Alla is very rude. I hope someone in Bupa addresses this else I would have given it 5 stars!!
Fantastic experience: I made it very clear when booking my appointment that I have a dental phobia. This was my first dentist appointment in 6-7 years and I must say; Dr Ara was incredible, so patient, kind and willing to make me comfortable! He explained everything, walked me through all my options and was a pleasure to chat to. Thank you for making what I had anticipated to be a scary experience a very enjoyable one. Safe to say I’ve found myself a new regular dentist!
Negative experience: We just moved to this side so went to Bupa Dental Hornsby at the Westfield to consider using a dentist there. The woman at the reception did not even look up when she said hello. Then to all our questions, she simply said `I don't know'??? She insisted that if we wanted any info, we'd need to make an appointment with the dentist & become a client. She wouldn't even swipe our Bupa card to check our cover related to our question, which all other dentist have happily done. Extremely bad service from this lazy receptionist who was ready to go home & it wasn't even 4pm yet! BUPA, you need to provide better service at your own centres!

Fantastic experience: great staff. professional, friendly, and all-around awesome doctor Saxena.
Negative experience: Not good people to do dental procedures ...simple cleaning was painful ...the work was not done in full ..we were told another session is required which again had waiting time . All appointments are offered on weekdays and if asking for weekends slots we were told to wait for 3 months !! ... even for cleaning !!! even after going for cleaning covered in bupa insurance ... by the time you come out for some reasons they give you a gap bill ...which was not discussed before or during the procedure ..have lost faith in this center ..
Hey Pintu,
It’s disappointing to hear this, and I’d recommend speaking with the practice manager if you haven’t already done so. Alternatively, you’re welcome to send through a Facebook private message (http://m.me/BupaAustralia) with further details, and we’ll meet you there.
Warm regards,
Viv
Fantastic experience: The best service I have ever experienced in dental healthcare - Dr Victor Butnejski is so compassionate and professional, 11/10 for service from Lesley at reception, 1000/10 from the treatment I received from the Dentist. If you have a dental issue, I would highly suggest booking ASAP as they are booked out for a long time unless it's an emergency. Worth the wait because the level of service and professionalism is the best.
Fantastic experience: The Doctor was fantastic. Thorough and very clear through his explanations and approach. Dr. Victor has good approach in terms what's his plan to fix my dental problem.
Negative experience: *****UPDATE***** After leaving the review below I was contacted by Lucy from Bupa Dental. She asked me if there was anything she could do to make me feel better about my experience at Bupa Dental Hornsby to which I replied that a refund of the $100 that I was charged on top of the quoted price would work for me. Lucy kindly arranged this for me and I received the $100 Back into my account within a timely manner and the issue was resolved. Thanks Lucy. *****ORIGINAL REVIEW***** Discussed the cost of the service with the dentist Victor Butnejski before he began replacing my filling specifically as I didn't have private health coverage. Cost of replacing the filling was about $160. Along the way he noticed some slight decay and let me know he would have to do some extra work and the total cost would come to about $230. Ok, gotta do what you gotta do. When it came time for payment I was hit with a bill for $333. Have had bigger fillings done at private clinics for less. Told the receptionist that the price didn't reflect what I had discussed in advance with the dentist but that didn't make a difference. I feel that Bupa Dental has ripped me off to the tune of about $100. I paid the money because I felt like I had to but in hindsight I should have refused. Lesson learned I suppose.
Hi Christopher,
At our Bupa Dental practices, we’ve got set costs for each dental item number to ensure that customers can have certainty on what they’ll be charged for particular services. With that being said, additional treatment can add to this cost, so that may account for the price being a little more than expected.
I’ve been sure to pass your valuable feedback on to our Bupa Dental Hornsby team, as we want to ensure we’re providing the highest level of service when you visit one of our practices.
Warm regards,
Ryan

Fantastic experience: Very friendly professional staff. Dr Arash visited me and it was a pleasure to deal with him. I felt they care about my health and the best plan to approach my issues. I will definitely visit Bupa dental and Dr Arash in future.
Fantastic experience: I've gone to see Bupa Dental at Hornsby a few times now and have been impressed by the modern and immaculate facilities, as well as the friendly and professional staff. I was also fortunate enough to be treated by the very competent and handsome Dr White who went above and beyond to give me a new crown and tend to a few minor cavities. Quick and painfree!
Fantastic experience: Very professional service on my first visit. Staff were friendly, hygienist was thorough and Dr White was very knowledgeable. I was short on time and was impressed by how efficient they were without making me feel rushed at all. They were even on time! I will be back.
Fantastic experience: I brought my adult daughter into see Dr Shruti as she is well known for her gentle caring approach My daughter is extremely anxious and fearful of dentists and I was concerned when she started to have a toothache Dr Shruti was wonderful , she helped to relax my daughter and reassure her . She explained every detail clearly at the beginning and throughout the treatment . I would recommend Dr Shruti to everyone especially any patients who are anxious We will always use Dr Shruti in the future as she is extremely patient caring and professional
Fantastic experience: I am going to Hornsby bupa from last 3 years. My experience with Shruti sexsena . She is the most experience and professional caring dentist I have ever met. Actually she has saved my teeth and gums. She is my dentist for rest of my lifetime.
Fantastic experience: We see Shruti Saxena and she's been an excellent Dentist.....so caring and very professional. Highly recommend her...
Fantastic experience: We see Dr. Shruti Saxena at the HORNSBY clinic. Shruti is an excellent dentist with great workmanship and bedside manner. She is awesome with both children and adults in keeping those nerves calm and explains everything clearly and in detail. All the nurses and reception staff I have come across so far have been excellent in making the entire experience go smoothly each time. Everyone has always given us the time needed to treat us properly, unlike some other practices that want you in and out quickly. I highly recommend Dr. Saxena and the practice in HORNSBY.
Negative experience: My first time to use Bupa Dental and I had a very bad experience. I can’t speak of the other dentists but the dentist I had was really unprofessional. I had a filling last month which was a failure, the pain was getting worse and worse, until I couldn’t sleep at all. I didn’t complain at all and went back to see if I needed a root canal. That dentist then told me the filling was good, and he said maybe it is the problem of my another tooth. Then he offered me options to have antibiotics OR have the root canal OR to see a specialist. I couldn’t wait since the pain is crazy and asked for root canal, then he said my nerve is cursive so the root canal is very difficult( I believe this is quite normal since I wouldn’t have a special nerve to make an unique case in this world). How could you trust a dentist after a filling failure and such a conversation. Very lucky I found another clinic that day to solve the problem- they did an examination to confirm the pain is from the tooth that I had filling at Bupa, and did the root canal after that. I never had that examination from this Bupa dentist and I wonder why he doesn’t offer or maybe he doesn’t have adequate skill at all. I wouldn’t go to Bupa again, and will not recommend to anyone, not just wasting money, the painful experience is unforgettable in my life.
Hi Wei. We are sorry to hear about your experience. Please contact us on 02 9477 3906 to discuss what we can do to help you.
Fantastic experience: Always go here for while family. Dr Saxena is the best dentist I’ve ever encountered- and I’ve been to a lot over my lifetime in different countries. She is very thorough and explains everything- works very carefully and puts kids at ease. I fully trust her, so much so that I almost fell asleep during recent complex long appointment to have crown done. They have excellent technology too. I would highly recommend her. All staff were friendly and helpful, including the practice manager, Lucy!
Negative experience: Do yourself a favor and don’t go here. Borderline scam.
Negative experience: Based on my experience should only venture there for cleaning (not good in my case), would advise against anything else. Beware that any other type of dental procedure can have permanent implications if not done right / by an experienced dentist.
