This particular dental office is set up such that Dr. Hopkins does the initial exam, assesses the work, and passes you off on to other less qualified dentists. First exam with Dr. Hopkins was pleasant, however all the care I received after that was horrific. I just received a letter in the mail noting she has sold the practice and is no longer providing her services on a full-time basis, so she isnt even associated with the practice anymore. Dental Work: I had a root canal and crown down here. The crown surface has no grooves resembling real teeth used to chew food and will need to have the work re-done by another dentist who I have since been seeing with a much better result. The root canal hurt like hell and the whole time I had to listen to the dentist tell me about how great his work was. He sucked. Billing: Does this lady speak English? All I know is I called twice to request a copy of my bill to which I got an irate Armenian lady screaming at me like she was back in the old country yelling about how I would be assessed a $25 fee for not showing up to an appointment after I received a written letter in the mail stating Dr. Hopkins would not be practicing dental work at that location any more. Overpriced and bitchy.

About Hygienist: I was charged $500 for a deep cleaning, done in 4 visits, with 12 Novocain shots. The hygienist, although a cheery woman, was just awful. The needle wounds inside my mouth lasted at least a week and my whole mouth was tender for about a week a half. After speaking to another family member, they received a much less painful procedure for half the price and better quality work. DO NOT GET YOUR TEETH CLEANED HERE. HURTS LIKE HELL!!!!!!! The office looks great, but dont be fooled, thats only to make you feel safe. The dental work sucks. All amatures, all overpriced.

I know this doctor: 6 months
