I would recommend Dr. Awasthi and her staff to anyone. I found them via Google search by chance and it turned out to be such a blessing. My kid is always excited to go into the office and Dr. Awasthi is wonderful, passionate, loving, caring doctor and kind, same with all the staff. I highly recommend them.

I would not recommend this dental office. My appointment was @ 2pm and the dentist wasn't physically present in the building @2:35pm as I waited. Her assistants seemed very inept in their bedside manor and with the tools they use. The girl who took x-rays had a short/inpatient tone and didn't adjust the lateral x-ray machine prior to me stepping in it causing it to hit my shoulder as it started it's scanning process. I had to quickly crouch to dodge it. The other assistant said since the dentist wasn't there yet that they were going to polish my teeth first then the dentist would scale them. I've never had a polish prior to scaling, it seemed like they were just doing what they could to buy time. The girl that did the polish dragged the aluminum handle against my teeth twice. The suction was placed in my mouth prior to any polishing or water so it just instantly sucked all the saliva out of my mouth and when I went to temporarily lift it to avoid this the x-ray girl said "just leave it" and quickly walked away. It was the most uncomfortable I've been at a dentist office in my life, and was a frighteningly inept experience. I just left after the polish, still waiting for the dentist who never even arrived before I drove off the lot. There was another patient waiting in the lobby and one on their way in.

I have found my new favorite dentist. Let me preface this by saying it had been 14 years since my last dental visit- a traumatic experience that kept me away from seeking any type of oral checkups.... needless to say I have been absolutely terrified to return. After extensive research I came across Dr. Awasthi, and decided it was high time to get a couple issues checked out. First off, her office is IMMACULATE. It's bright, inviting and extremely clean. Her staff is literally the sweetest group I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with, in a office setting. I was seen so quick too! Secondly, her dental assistant was the best. She would check in periodically during my extraction, and was extremely comforting, making me feel worlds better. Her and Dr. Awasthi were easily the most friendly, gentle and communicative team I've ever had working on my teeth. Dr. A listened when I was in pain, and did her very best to mitigate my discomfort at any time. She took a horrendous situation for me and made it totally bearable. I feel so much better now! Lastly, there was no blaming, no criticism and more importantly, not an ounce of judgment from anyone... which was the most crucial thing for me. I felt like a regular patient who gets consistent checkups. I adore this dentist and I have every intention to start regularly attending checkups, and it's all because of the wonderful people at this practice. Thank you, a million times thank you!

I recently switched my whole family to Dr. Awasthi's clinic. And so far, I'm very impressed with the entire staff. They were so gentle and encouraging. Nearly all six of us needed fillings and my eight-year-old need two teeth extracted that were blocking other teeth from descending properly and causing her pain. Dr. Awasthi successfully removed both cleanly without any breakage or splintering of the roots. I don't know much about dentistry, but from what I gather, that's fairly impressive even with adult teeth, but especially impressive with delicate baby teeth. They've been accommodating, kind, fast, skillful, and even the office space is nice with easy parking. I learned today that they only recently began practicing in this location. I very much recommend Dr Awasthi. We're very lucky to have found her clinic now while they are accepting new patients.
