The doctors and staff understand that the thought of oral surgery can be stressful and possibly lead to fear and worry. Your comfort and trust are important, so they take time to demystify all aspects of your procedure and welcome the inclusion of other family during the treatment planning process.
Your doctor and the staff will walk you through your diagnosis, explaining the clinical concerns and what needs to be addressed. They will then explain the options to correct the issue, discussing what is involved, what to expect before, during, and post-surgery, and timelines. Your questions are welcomed and will be fully answered.
Throughout the treatment planning process, you will gain an understanding of the procedure and be guided to make decisions that are right for your situation. This helps to ease any anxiety and shows that your wellbeing is at the forefront of all that happens.
Dr. Richardson and Dr. Singh are both medical doctors and dentists. They have completed extensive internships and residencies in oral and maxillofacial surgery, as well as additional intensive fellowships in facial plastic surgery focused on dento-skeletal deformities.

In addition to tooth extractions and oral biopsies, the doctors have extensive experience in treating facial and jaw trauma and providing full-arch reconstruction.

My complaint is that we drove all the way from Upper Marlboro, MD. Only to be told that the surgery was canceled. I was NEVER CONTACTED. I am a teacher and used my Leave in order to take this Confirmed Date to have my son's wisdom teeth removed. Based on my heated discussion with them, they worked it out and did the surgery that day. The work was professionally done. It just frustrated me that I had to go through this. The doctor apologized.

Dr. Richardson is very friendly and takes the time to address any concerns which helped ease my mind before the procedure. The extracction itself was painless and quick.

They need to find new office support. The first time I called the phone hung up in my face after I requested an appointment and I called back and it went to voicemail I left a voicemail explaining what happened and never received a call back. I called back a couple of days later and again the phone hung up after I requested an appointment so I called back AGAIN and someone with a different voice answered the phone. I explained my recent experience of being hung up on and asked was everything ok and were they taking appointments. No apology for an inconvenience or explanation. She just glossed over what I just explained to her that keeps happening. I guess they don't care for any new business which is fine but it's always good to have good customer service within a business. I'm highly disappointed with my initial interaction. I wonder is the surgeon is aware????

Dr. Richardson is a brilliant surgeon and I am very happy with his work. However, his financial/billing staff is horrible, rude, and incompetent. Before I even had my procedure, I let the billing department know that I have primary and secondary dental insurance. Despite knowing this, they refused send a claim to my secondary dental insurance causing me to have to pay out of pocket for the remainder of my procedure. I was told that I would get a full refund for what i had to pay out of pocket once my secondary insurance sent a payment to their office. I called a few weeks later to follow up with this office about the status of my refund and they never even sent the claim out to my secondary insurance! I asked why this wasn't done in a timely manner and the someone from billing replied " I send it now". I didn't receive any apology or explanation why they didn't follow through with submitting the claim. When they finally submitted the claim to my secondary insurance, my secondary insurance insured me that they processed the payment and sent a check out on May 16th and that the payment was received and cashed by this office on May 23rd. I called this office on June 7th to inquire about my refund. I spoke with Deborah (who is completely incompetent and rude) around 2PM, and she confirmed the payment was posted to my account and that I have a credit. I asked her why do I have a credit and not a refund? I also asked why she or Holly didn't reach out to me to figure out how I'd like to receive my refund. They know I wanted a refund, there was no reason to post a credit to my account because my procedure is done with Dr. Richardson. Deborah's response to my question was " well, it's only been two weeks since we posted it". Her response was not acceptable nor did it make sense. On top of that, Deborah calls me back like at 2:40PM to tell me that they never received a payment from my insurance. Which is a lie! I sent all emails from my secondary insurance as well as the check number to prove my point. Holly conveniently out of the office yesterday, but let's pray she follows up. If not, I am reporting this office for insurance fraud and theft. They literally owe me $1076.36, had my check for over two weeks and is trying to say that they never received payment after I was told that the payment was posted on May 23rd. Dr. Richardson should hire a more competent billing/financial team because they make him look bad.

Took my daughter for a consultation regarding her wisdom teeth extraction and had a great experience. Staff were so friendly and professional. Dr. Richardson is great! He explained the procedure well and provided options for anesthesia. Instantly made a connection with Nik, who took us in the back. She's so down to earth and has a great personality - of course we got a long because turns out she has the same birthday with the front desk employee at my daughter's dental office who I also love, AND who happens to be her friend:) Overall great first time experience, will highly recommend.
