Dr. Kurban was fine, but he picked on my profile and made me very self-conscious. I went to him only for orthodontic services (I already have a regular dentist that I love). He proceeded to tell me I swallowed wrong and needed 4 cavities fixed. He also had his assistant take x-rays, which I did not ask for and was told I wouldn't be charged for (well, they charged the insurance company and didn't tell me that part). The cost I was quoted was way above the other 2 orthodontists I went to. He wanted to adjust the top teeth, which were perfectly straight. Didn't make sense to me to adjust something with a perfect bite mark. I just got the feeling that I would walk away spending way more than I needed. I didn't mind spending the money, I was expecting to, but I wanted to feel like what I was paying for was fair. And I did not get that impression.

About Front Desk: Front desk was nice. They were able to get quick quotes on the service I was looking for but I found out later they charged my insurance company for services I thought I was receiving for free. Depending on how you look at it, it's very shady to me. They then send follow-up emails, and a few months later I got a reminder that I was overdue for scheduling an appointment. Overall, very, very pushy. Ortho/dentists cause enough anxiety as it is... when I walk away feeling like I'm getting scammed, that's not a good sign.
