This does not reflect all dentists at the Taheri group only dr Jamali. I had come into dr Jamali for a cleaning and found out that one of my molars had a cavity. Its been my only cavity in over 15 years so I was a little surprised. I want to be clear and state that I had no pain nor sensitivity to the molar before getting it filled from dr Jamali. So I had the cavity filled a couple of weeks later only to have extreme sensitivity to it when I drank anything cold or hot and could not eat anything on it not even bread. I called Dr Jamalis office the next day and Dr. Jamali recommended I wait a week since it was just recently filled. Wow. So I waited a weeks time and came in for an appointment that lasted less than 5 minutes just for her to tell me to wait another week. By the way, she left the office before I did thats how much in a hurry she was. I gave it another 10 days, which was 17 days total and this time Dr. Jamali did a little drilling to "relieve" some pressure on the nerve of the molar. She told me that was going to help the pain. It didnt! It may have improved somewhat, but a majority of the pain was still there. I waited two weeks to see if it would improve (since I have been accustomed to believe this) and it did not. The next appointment was my fourth and very last. I thought for sure now she would actually do something to address the problem-like refill it...because it was not done correctly the first time. But Im assuming that would cost her money out of her pocket to redo it. So, her recommendation was to see an orthodontist to get it fixed. I was in such a daze at this point that I could not mouth the words nor the frustration that I was feeling. At this same appointment, she asked how the take home tooth whitener that I paid $250 for was working? Before I had a chance to answer, she started to say that the tooth whitener could be causing the sensitivity to the tooth. As soon as I heard that I was just completely floored. She was looking for a way out rather than to help me. Unbelievable! I told her that could not be the case because I hadnt started using it yet. To add insult to injury, she recommended that I use a toothpaste for sensitivity. Little did I know that small tube of toothpaste was going to cost me $25. I am never ever going back. NEVER

Ive had a horrible experience going to Dr. Taheris dental office at the Woodbridge location. I was taken care of by Dr. Gomez and her hygienist and they were very rough. While they were giving me fillings they decided not to give me anesthesia on one of the teeth. I made the gesture of no and they continued to drill and they said it wouldnt hurt, yet when they continued it hurt really bad. I began to cry and they dismissed everything telling me that Ill be ok and theyre almost done. While they were fixing my teeth Dr. Gomez was very sloppy, I remembered multiple times where the tools would grazed across my teeth and gums. I was pretty terrified. During the touch ups of my fillings, the dental suction tool actually started to slide into my throat and I almost started choking and I had to pull it out myself since Dr. Gomez hadnt noticed. Shows to say how much they really care here. As I was on my way to get my final x-rays before I left the hygienist actually told me to schedule next time when I have had food and when Im not on my period. I felt very offended and I said I was not on my period. she continued to have said that I was doing what was called pms-ing and that was the reason I started to cry. I have had the worst experience going to this practice. I highly discourage anyone from coming here, I felt as though they genuinely did not care about my well being. Multiple times I showed discomfort and they had continued on with what they were doing. They only care about the money, I felt rushed, violated, and insulted.

I wasnt too happy about my last appointment and it had nothing to do with the actual work that was performed. My appointment was at 4:00 and 4:30 with my two sons. The minute we walked in they were taking us back to chairs and the whole procedure felt rushed, as if the staff was worried about getting out the door on time. I wont schedule an appointment that late in the day again. The thing that bothered me most was that I had scheduled my appointment with Dr. Taheri and saw someone else. If they werent going to schedule us with the Doctor I signed us up with they should have told me. I had absolutely no problem with the Doctor we saw, he was just as kind and professional as Dr. Taheri, but, I have had such horrible experiences in the past that I was very nervous about seeing someone I didnt know without notice. I think though the worst part of that appointment is how smug the gentleman at the front desk is...and this isnt the first time. He didnt even acknowledge my presence an when I finally tried to get his attention, he shushed me...I dont like that, He wasnt with another customer and if you are going to shush me at least look me in the face when you do it. The lady that sits behind him took over and was very nice and professional. Petty as this sounds, we always look forward to getting a new toothbrush on the way out and that didnt happen either.

Im still in shock after years of trying to find a dentist who would fix my teeth. Year after year Ive been told were gonna help you get those teeth fixed followed by heres our outrageous prices that no normal young adult could afford. I started to lose hope and my smile began to dwindle the other day I walked into the taheri dental office with tears in my eyes thinking this would be another disappointing dentist office. Yesterday was the first day I wasnt disappointed not only did they begin work on my teeth that day they helped make it affordable there was no pain Beatrice kept me so calm and cool with all the things she talked about DR GOMEZ has the most gentle hands the from office girls are as sweet in person as they are on the phone they dont bs you or add on unnecessary treatment I left that office with a huge smile on my face and have not stopped since THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Youve given me my confidence back and the ability to drink cold water! Thank you all thank you dr Gomez we will never go to another dentist again you are the best! Im still smiling!!!

Dr. Taheri is the best Dentist in this area. After my first visit to the Woodbridge, VA office, I knew he would be my Dentist as long as I live in the area. The determining factor was the way he extracted a tooth. Honestly, I did not know the tooth had been removed. During numerous additional visits, I noticed how kind he was to the elder and those without dental insurance. This a doctor that really cares about his patients. Im not paid to write this review; and, no one asked me to write this review. This is my opinion, and I felt obligated to let others know that the Taheri Dental Group is a great practice, and deserves 5 STARS.
