AVOID AT ALL COSTS. DISHONEST PEOPLE. PLEASE READ THE WHOLE REVIEW BEFORE YOU RISK YOUR DENTAL AND MENTAL HEALTH. I should have listened to the negative reviews, positive reviews are probably from people who work there. Exactly the same thing happened that was mentioned in the reviews. You will go in for one thing and then when you recieve your bill you will see multiple things on it. DONT PAY UPFRONT- YOU WILL NEVER SEE THE CREDIT. DR HAKIMZADA IS VERY DISHONEST! I asked him before operating if everything would be covered since he looked at my insurance plan-(which is a great plan) he said yes. After the appointment they charged me around $280 and was told that my insurance covered 80% and not 100%, and this is the remaining balance. On inquiring about the breakdown of the bill- i was given a credit card invoice and told that i will be given a credit if what i owe is less then what i paid when i get the final bill. Thinking this was normal- i went the second day and was charged another $150. He wanted to do another root canal the next day and had already chipped half of my tooth before i made it absolutely clear that i only came in for a filling as discussed the day before. Mind you he had already examined my teeth the day before and according to him i only needed some fillings. I was soo unhappy with the whole situation and i could tell all he is looking for is MONEY, so i went to a different dentist for the remaining fillings- and everything was soo much better- no upfront cost and no funny billing business. CLAIMS- soo i finally receive the claims and i was owed $133 credit in total. Went back to him- he gave me a run around saying we will process it once the insurance company pays us. I call the insurance company up- they told me it was an electronic transfer and they have the money already- soo they put me on hold and called him- moments later i was notified by the insurance rep that they will be submitting some more documents and that i should see my refund soon. Fast forward a week or soo- i see another claim out of nowhere showing multiple more services performed and you guessed it- my remaining balance owed to them was $110- soo there goes my credit! I have receits of all the transactions - incase they are bold enough to challange this review and i would take them to court if need be!
