I tried to find an in network dentist close to work in Somerville, so I went to see Dr. Ambarik's office. He no longer runs the office himself, and the current staff seems somewhat misled by a management staff that is useless. I went in for three appointments where they tried to take x-rays I already had done. Furthermore, I saw two different dentists and the second one on the follow-up visit wasn't even going to do the scheduled cleaning, which was the entire purpose of the visit. She thought it was a consult for wisdom teeth removal, which happened during the first visit. I also visited a second office in Cambridge where I was assured I would have a consult and wisdom tooth removal the same day. Thus both my fiancee and myself took half the day off work only to find that when I got there that was not all the doctor's intention. They took more X-rays and then the "specialized dentist" said that she didn't feel comfortable doing the surgery anyway. Of course, they still billed my insurance for the x-rays and consult that day, and my fiancee needlessly missed half a day of work. When I confronted the doctor about it she brushed it off. In general this is a very poorly run practice, though most of the staff is kind and capable.
