After 5 years of terrible dentists in NYC, I can't believe I found such a good one on my first try here in DC. I'll be staying with this dentist as long as I can.
She has amazing bedside manner -- she explains everything in detail, shows you the x-rays and additional pictures she takes using a camera. She talked me out of having a filling redone that had been bothering me and explained in detail why it had been bothering me and how it would naturally fix itself.
My last dentist in NYC had taken the opposite approach -- he tried to talk me into several thousands of dollars of dental work that no other dentist had ever suggested and which this dentist did not recommend. Basically, she seemed very concerned that I received the best care and not at all concerned about getting me to agree to unnecessary work.
The cleaning was extremely thorough. The offices were very nice and well lit with up to date equipment and extra perks -- (i.e. the cameras for additional pictures in the mouth and a chair with a back massaging mechanism).
Highly recommended.
I'm not sure of all the insurance she takes -- oddly she wasn't listed on the Metlife website though she takes them, and these are the insurance companies that she's listed as taking on Zocdoc :
* Aetna
* CareFirst Blue Cross Blue Shield
* Cigna
* Delta Dental
* Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield
* Humana Dental
* MetLife
* UnitedHealthcare
Also oddly she's not listed on google maps at this address (2440 M St. NW) but her information is listed on zocdocs -- that's where I found her.
