Great dentist, great experience!

I am begging you, if you care about your teeth and want to keep them in your mouth..DO NOT SEE THIS DENTIST! Myself, my sister, my mother, and a co-worker who took her three kids with her husband there all have the same opinion, he is root canal happy. I say that so you know it's not just me who feels this way. He wanted to root canal my co-workers 12 year old and my brother saw him a few times and stopped because he felt he was "a hack". If you have slight pain, he will root canal you (despite the fact that a regular dentist is apparently supposed to usually refer our for root canals, he never did). I began seeing him when I was young and naive and didn't really know better. Everytime I saw him, despite daily brushing and flossing, I'd have at least one cavity. Same with my mom. And if I had some pain, root canal. I wish I knew better because now I have to have a tooth removed because he didn't seal it properly after a root canal and it became infected but he put an odd material in there so it can't be saved (which he did to my sister too, now we both have a missing tooth from him). And he didn't follow American Dental Society safety precautions when doing root canals (I know that now from seeing other dentists). Another weird thing is he told me I have a cavity and I went to see him for another issue and he told me he thought I had two teeth that needed to be root canalled. I finally smartened up and saw someone else. I just had one tooth that needed a filling fixed...and the new dentist could not find this supposed cavity. I've seen another dentist since then (just because I moved) and no cavity found either. This guy was going to drill a hole into my tooth for no reason. I wonder how many fillings I've had done that didn't need to be done. Just please please please don't go to this dentist. I wish someone had warned me.

My family and I have been going to Dr. Samia for quite a few years, and I must say the experience has always been great. I'm writing this bit of info at this time, because Dr. Samia just finished a bit of work for me that looks exceptional. Going to the dentist is not the most fun in the world, but it really makes a difference when the doc acts like he cares, and is good at what he does. Great job! And thanks again!

Dr. Samia is the best dentist I've seen - he is extremely friendly and instantly puts you at ease. My entire family sees him and nobody complains about going to appointments...a huge feat when you have school age children! He's great at explaining what needs to be done and all the treatment options without all the "doctor talk." Dr. Samia has been very honest with us over the years and I really feel he's looking out for us. I've recommended him to many of my friends and have yet to hear any complaints. Definitely worth booking an appointment if you're looking for a new dentist. I've never had any issues with the girls at the front desk that the previous review mentioned.

This is by far one of the best dentists I have been to. But the receptionist makes you rather wish you pulled your teeth out yourself so you did not have to come in.



I was driving here from over an hour away and got a harassing and very rude phone call from the receptionist. There was another instance where I was on my way to this office and my brake line blew out so obviously being sane I pulled over and brought the car straight to a mechanic. Without breaks continuing on your way you would be incredibly dumb, well I called to reschedule my appoint and this receptionist told me "You need to call 24 hours ahead of time" So I decided to tell her exactly what had happened. I was then told "That's not an excuse for breaking the appointment."



If you want to have a good dentist appointment without having to deal with a rude old woman I suggest staying far away from this. I know I will be switching dentists but I wish I did not have to as the dentist himself is very good. At this point I just think that the receptionist has lost him a lot of business and just does not want to do her job.
