After being terrified of a dentist for such a long time I’ve built up the courage to start that process ! And let me tell you! I have picked the right office and dentist !! Not only is the office and staff super welcoming but they are very comforting as well , for someone like me it was just embarrassing but they made me feel less and less embarrassed the more I go and get work needed done. As for the dentist , him and his wife rock ! Mr.Bhat is very cheerful , and kind , and funny he will make you feel okay and will reassure you as he’s doing his work. He makes sure you feel no pain and are comfortable at all times !! His wife is gentle spoken, is caring and reassuring just like him. The fear of going to the dentist is slowly going away , as each appointment gets closer I am more and more excited and eager to finish my teeth and go in to my appointment. Which is just a big plus for me as anyone can imagine the nerves and anxiety that comes with being scared of something is not easy. I am very happy me and my husband chose this dentist and are even looking forward to our appointments in the future !

Fantastic experience: The best dentist in the world . Thank you so much for excellent service
Negative experience: Honestly, I wish I could give this place 0 stars. I made an appointment with them for an FMX , oral exam , and to get the small chip on my front tooth fixed as I am getting married in October. They told me that I have a cavity on every tooth in my mouth, I need to get 6 crowns, 3 extractions, and a partial. They quoted me $13,000 out of pocket after insurance and still didn't fix my front tooth and then, made me pay $65 before I left.

Fantastic experience: So far this I am completely satisfied with this dental office. The staff is knowledgeable, extremely professional, and super friendly. They provide full transparency in regards to billing, and what your insurance will and will not cover . Dr. Bhat himself is SUPER down to earth and professional which makes sense as to why his staff operates the same way . I mean every single staff I interacted with is professional and friendly, every single one ! My last dentist gave me PTSD in regard to professionalism , and billing. This right here is the review of a honest happy client/ customer! 5 stars are definitely deserved here
Negative experience: I LOVE DR.BHATT BUT IS SO HARD TO GET AN APPOINTMENT. EVERYTIME YOU CALL THE APPOINTMENT IS LIKE A WHOLE NEXT MONTH.
Fantastic experience: Dr Bhat and his team are amazing. They make you feel like part of the family, keep you laughing from the time you get in chair and leave.

Fantastic experience: Dr Bhat is amazing and truly cares about your health and wellbeing! I kept putting off a referral he had given me for my jaw that would constantly click and pop and sometimes lock. I finally went to the specialist he kept advocating for me to have it checked out. And good thing I did because I ended up needing a 2 hour jaw reconstruction surgery but if I kept putting it off it would have been a much worse issue. Thank you Dr Bhat❤️
