This dentist lacks ethics. I booked a checkup and cleaning but only received a checkup. After a quick check that involved a ridiculously large number of X-rays, 8 in total, I was given a long hard sell on why I needed to spend $630 for a cleaning. The actual cleaning cost was only $115 but the extra antibiotics brought the balance up to $630. I've had many cleanings and never had antibiotics, but the dentist refused to clean my teeth without them for 'liability' reasons. The real reason is clearly extra profit. In my wasted hour there I saw no other patients. The profit strategy of this dentist is to see a few patients and charge them as much as possible. It is a shame that the otherwise friendly staff and apparently good facilities receive so little use as a result. At the end of the day I lost an hour of my life, received a fair amount of radiation, and my teeth are just as much in need of a cleaning as when I walked in! And my insurance plan will not allow me to register another dentist until next month. Another irritant is that Dr Rostami spoke on the phone throughout my checkup - very unprofessional. Go elsewhere!
