Sherry Anoushfar, DDS, PC

DO NOT believe the positive reviews, they are fake. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this dentist. She is not to be trusted. She needs to go and teach and not work on anyone’s teeth. she is knowledgeable and can explain a lot, but she CAN NOT work on your teeth, her hands shake, the dental instruments will be banging around in your mouth. She doesn’t know how much Novocain to give you so in the middle of the procedure she has to stop and give you more. I had two crowns done by her and after 6 months both teeth are still sensitive and my gums still l bleed. Secondly, she is money hungry and will try to sell you services that you don’t need. I have been so upset about this that I had to wait six months to write this review because I did’t want to think and remember the awful experience I had with her…

Dr. Anoushfar and her staff are professional, kind and caring. I have been a patient here for many years and I feel I get great care. Getting fitted for Invisalign was handled professionally and swiftly. All my dental care has been of the highest quality and with a great staff. Often, visiting the dentist can be overwhelming but it never is here!

Avoid this dentist if you don’t want substandard practices and outrageous bills, She has figured out when her creative and expensive overcharges and useless procedures will not be reviewed by the insurance company so she will not be caught miss charging and overcharging if you have the type of insurance where you use the insurance payment schedule for services, and you pay the bill yourself or you have no insurance. She will even give you a «special discount» off the bogus bills if you have no insurance to make it seem like she is really concerned about your welfare. She gets you to sign the «treatment plan» so it’s «your decision» but she knows that most people will sign on the spot since we are predisposed to «listen to our doctors and blindly follow their advice.»
She sells services that are useless and not in line with «best practices.» «Creative billing charge» of almost $ 100 for «medicinal irrigation» and over $ 500 for treating an infected tooth that really needed a root canal. She charged almost $ 100 per shot. After the «treatment» I read many articles on the Internet written by dentists that this is a scam used by some dentists to enhance their living standard. The endodontist who did my root canal the following week confirmed that the «shots» were useless. A root canal was the only «best practices» solution of my infection.
Unfortunately I read the stuff on the Internet after I had and I paid for the services.
My request for a refund was denied.
I now have have an excellent dentist, very ethical and professional dentist in the area who charges me in accordance with the codes and charges in my dental plan.

The first time I called they told me that they didn’t accept my insurance even though my insurance gave me their information. I called my insurance again, and they insisted that I call the doctor back. I should not have. When I went in, I gave them my insurance card, which they copied, and I filled in the insurance form they have. I had a regular cleaning and standard xrays. They did recommend I get some «better» xrays done, and I specifically asked if they were covered. They stated that my insurance covered these «better» xrays. Total charge was almost $ 400.00. I complained to my insurance company and found out I was supposed to be charged $ 35.00. The insurance company called the doctor with me on hold and the office told my insurance company that I had not disclosed I even had insurance! I had an entire conversation with the office manager regarding my insurance and what was covered. I am 100% convinced they double bill. Oh and of course the «better xrays» were not covered. In addition, the doctor quoted almost $ 10,000.00 in needed dental work. I got a second opinion and the cost was actually less than $ 2,000.00. When I requested my medical records sent to my new dentist, they «lost» my request twice. When I threatened them, they finally sent a photocopy of an xray that was completely unusable/​unreadable. Terrible, terrible people that should probably be in jail.

I’ve gone to this dentist for a few years. They’ve got great cameras to take photos of your teeth and full head x-​rays (cost added to the bill with no advance explanation), monitors over the chairs to show you what they see, etc. that help to provide justification for their recommendations. In hindsight, I received mediocre cleanings and a lot of sales jobs.
I started to question when they recommended four onlays at $ 850 each (after insurance!). I got a second opinion, and after a very thorough examination, I was told to replace a broken filling, to look at another tooth in about 5 years to check for decay progression, and the other two teeth were simply showing signs of wear.
In addition to the onlay recommendation, I was also told that I needed a deep gum cleaning. The second opinion advised me to start using a Waterpik. Honestly, I feel that if my teeth were cleaned better during my normal preventative appointment, I wouldn’t even need that.

I actually have no idea what to make of my experience here. I first went to male in the practice (Sherry Anoushfar). I went in for a routine check up and to have a filling redone. He said, it was a large filling, so he decided to upgrade me to a crown. I should have left right there, I didn’t know what getting a crown consisted of, until he started shaving away my tooth with a mini sandblaster. I didn’t NEED a crown, he said it was preventative… but where I once had a perfectly good tooth with a filling, I then had a stub. Needless to say, my tooth that sometimes was sensitive, and sometimes slightly throbbed… became horribly painful. I had to go on antibiotics, that didn’t work, I refused to go back to the same doctor, so I went to the female in the practice ((Mohsen Izadi) I went back to see what was up. The crown was infected and I needed a root canal. I got the root canal done (horrible experience) and the pain didn’t go away, it was still infected. Total cost of experience? $ 1400-​$ 1600. At that point, I wiped my hands clean, and had my family doc prescribe antibiotics, and the pain finally went away.
The facilities were new and the crown was of good quality, but the doctor and staff were snobs. Or maybe they were just a snob to me because I’m 25 and not one of their high income clients. I would not recommend this place.
My tooth has never been the same… it still aches.
