How this score works

The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70; Review Drive when the flags are mostly staff asking customers for named reviews. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.

Burst
— an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
Low activity account
— the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
Duplicate text
— the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.

Verdicts are statistical estimates based on public review patterns, not accusations. Full methodology, signal definitions and known limits →

Very friendly staff, all bilingual. You walk into a very clean and welcoming environment. Dr. Margossian takes her time to get to know you as a person rather than just a client. She's very competent and takes her time to clearly outline the...

I'm a pretty anxious and nervous guy when it comes to dental work, and hadn't been to a Dentist in over two years. One of my teeth snapped recently, so I had to bite the bullet and go get it fixed. I was recommended this Dentist from a co-...

If you're anxious or scared of going to the dentist, LOOK NO FURTHER. I'm absolutely terrified of needles and hate going to the dentist, but Dr. Margossian changed it all. She gave me medication to get me more relaxed, explained every step...

In case there's any doubt, and given the previous responses from the practice: yes, I was a patient at this clinic for two years, and there's no chance I'm mistaken about the clinic, considering my experience there. My experience with Dr. M...

I deleted this review after the dentist called to apologize. I’m putting it back because I had to throw out my dress from the blood stains, I still can’t eat on the side Dr. Lévi worked on, and I now have pain in my ear. My experience here...

Unexpected or High Costs

Some reviewers complain about expensive treatments, lack of upfront pricing disclosures, and unexpected extra fees.

Too expensive if you're a student without dental insurance. They don't tell you the prices upfront, and in the end, you're stuck with an exorbitant bill. I had to go because I was in severe pain. The dentist told me I needed a root canal, w...

Do not go here. They overcharge and charge you for work they didn’t actually do. 1 year later and I finally stopped having pain because another qualified dentist fixed their mistake.

1★ · 2026-07-13

Dentist clinics like this are a dime a dozen. Sloppy adminstrative team, dentists with an attitude that ensure they're looking out for your health when in actuality they're looking any way to get more out of your pocket. There are absolutel...

Dismissive Responses to Issues

Reviewers report unhelpful or dismissive responses from the clinic when returning to address failed work or post-procedure pain.

Terrible service. I've been there several times in the last two months for the same two procedures (fillings), and the dentist bluntly told me she was tired and discouraged from doing touch-ups because I wasn't brushing my teeth properly, a...

This has already been well documented by others. Here, everyone is happy to see you when it's time to pay. But if you need to redo something (don't expect any apologies) or follow up, forget it! The responses you can expect are: "I don't w...

The staff are very friendly here but I do not believe the dental services are high quality. I was told I needed to have a cavity filled that I literally felt no pain from last year and ever since it was filled I have experienced excruciatin...

I had my wisdom teeth removed there in June, and the experience was good. I went back today for fillings, and they didn't explain the procedure very well (or at all). I couldn't afford the time it would take, so I wanted to reschedule. She charged me $150, claiming she was losing money. I don't unde...

Great atmosphere...everyone is smiling and their good humor is contagious. After 30 years with an excellent dentist who retired, his replacement turned out to be very dishonest...luckily I met Eileen...so competent!!

I've gotten a lot of work done in the last two months after an emergency visit when a part of my tooth broke off.

Dr. Margossian is very professional and also very caring towards her patients, a crucial aspect that is sometimes lacking in some doctors, dentists, or physicians. There's a very friendly atmosphere in the clinic, which isn't always the case with dentists! It's clear that the people who work there l...
