AVOID THIS DENTIST BY ALL MEANS (one star because I cannot give 0)
I went to Dr. Hoang's office in May 2011 for a standard cleaning. During my routine exam, Hoang informed me that I had a severe infection that had spread from one of my teeth to my jawbone. He also claimed that I had terrible decay under previous fillings, and needed two canals, and he also listed a number of other problems. I protested that I felt no pain and that I found this hard to believe. He insisted that I needed a panoramic x-ray to determine the extent of the infections/ probelms, and he and others in the offfice reassured me that my insurance would cover this particular x-ray.
When I was about to the leave the office, I learned that I had to pay close to $1000.00 and that they would not accept credit cards; I basically could not leave until they automatically withdrew this money from my account.
I went for a second opinion, and the dentist was shocked with this diagnosis, since my teeth were in perfect condition. To make matters worse, my insurance would not cover the panoramic x-ray since I did not need one.
I ended up taking Dr. Hoang to small claims court, and I unfortunately, learned that Dr. Hoang and company are no strangers to the Superior Court of the District of Columbia. As this link below illustrates, sever patients have taken Dr. Hoang to court for his dishonesty, repeated misleading fo patients, and malpractice.

I fortunately won my case, but to this day Dr. Hoang has refused to reimburse me and fulfil the judgement.
This man is very unprofessional and knows how to work the system. Shortly, after our trial started, he promoted his receptionists to heads of finance and they appeared in court and lied through their teeth.
SAVE YOURSELF THE TROUBLE AND FIND YOURSELF AN HONEST DENTIST.
