Avoid at all costs!!!! He lied about my diagnosis or he was extremely incompetent, then he lied about what he originally told me! He pulled 2 teeth and filed down (ruined) 2 more teeth and made a god-awful bulky appliance which broke off the 2 teeth that he unnecessarily filed down & told me I chose that, which I did not!! He tricked me by lying to me or he didn't know how to read an x-ray & made the wrong diagnosis. Also, when making a bridge, his office wouldn't supply the insurance co. with acceptable X-rays to justify doing the bridge and I was stuck with most of the cost. To add insult to injury, he is breaking the law by refusing to give me a copy of my records, violating HIPPA-says I have to take him to court! He must know he made a mistake and is now trying to hide it or he would hand them over! He is after money only and he is a liar and his staff is ignorant about common office laws practiced by every other doctor and dentist. I now am missing 4 teeth and it will be extremely expensive to restore my smile all because this guy wants money or is not man enough to own up to his own mistakes. Has done a lot of costly, unnecessary work! Run like the plague!

About Front Desk: They take more x-rays than the insurance co. will pay for so they submit the claims in 2 stages so they will all get paid - not to mention the radiation! They always put the most expensive treatment option first and if you don't notice that some of it may be "optional" , then it's your fault if you don't notice it and you'll have to pay the more expensive cost. Their billing is very hard to follow (very fuzzy math) and I had to pay my deductible twice and had to ask for it back! The office is drab with old decor and blinds that were there in the 80's and the carpet is very wrinkled in the hall and you have to be careful or you'll trip over it. I spent at least $6,000. which probably should have cost at the most about half that, but I think he didn't want to split the cost with and endo or periodontist by getting it done right - he wanted to do it all himself, at my expense!

Dr. Hemant Patel is a very experienced dentist. he has more than 25 years of experience and it shows. He puts you completely at ease for the procedure. He is very friendly and you can trust him, he has done several fillings for me recently. The office staff is also very helpful and friendly and they took me when I complained of pain. Dr. Patel expalins what is going on and provides you the options. For the first time in my life I found a dentist whom I could trust, and never felt any pressure of doing a certain procedure. Billing was done directly , no issues.
