I have been a patient since the early 80s and I had a bill of 68.70 that went to collections and now they refuse to treat me or my children, whom have been patients all they're lives, ever again. They obviously care more about their money than their patients!!! What a shameful way to treat your community and those who have supported you and your business their whole lives! If I would have known I would have paid it.

Update from 11.19.20 Excellent Dentist office ever! The whole Shahelin family transferred to this place. The office staff are also great to deal with. They have some good sized rooms for Dental work. Dr Alex was very knowledgeable and awesome in explaining everything. He also pronounces "Shahelin" sooo correctly, loved it!! As somebody who is not a fan of even the slightest pain also, I have to say Sydney was great to take care of me. Additional point to note - The way Sydney washes her hands are like how Heart Surgeons do it in OTs. Highly professional!! Good job Sydney. Sydney - if you are reading this, you were phenomenal. Thanks alot!! Keep it up. 04.02.21 - I had an important meeting at my Company that I couldn't miss on this day which I only came to know about on that day. One phone call to this place and the lady at the reception gave an option to come a little later without any reschedule fees or anything, I am even thinking they dont charge to cancel. More reasons to say Westwood Dental is awesome. Linda is sooo good with kids, she just keeps the kid so busy with every visit and not even make her understand that its a dentist appointment. My kid literally tells me she needs to go back to the Dentist. I wished I had a Dental office like this growing up. This was never fun for me ever. Excellent job Dr. Jordyn, you were also great. This is the best family business I have seen. Wishing Dr. Alex and Dr. Jordyn all the best!!! 05.20.21 Another wonderful visit. Their appt system is superb, I arrived at exact time of appt and I was not made to wait a second. Wonderful management there. I cant ask for anything more when it comes to scheduling appts here. Sydney is the best employee here and takes care of you well. She is a big asset to this firm. Her interpersonal skills are top notch and she keeps you informed of what she is doing which is nice. I have started liking Dentist appts, all credit goes to Sydney!! Thanks again.

DO NOT GO TO WESTWOOD DENTAL ... I contacted these folks a month before mine and my wife's appointment. Today, we were supposed to have our very first appointment starting at 11am. When we arrived we were told that there was no appointment in the computer for us. When I originally called, I gave them ALL of our information, insurance information and set the appointment at that time. I put the appointment on my calendar on my phone and today we went for that appointment. After being told we have no appointment, we were also told that we would have to reschedule for another time and date. I asked to speak with the office manager who I explained how my entire conversation a month earlier went and how I was being told that we were not going to be seen today. She apologized and confirmed that we would not be seen today. While this was all going on, an office worker named Mary, was shaking her head and making comments about me and how I wasn't getting in today under her breath. When I confronted her about her comments, she claimed to be talking about something else (out loud) and shaking her head at comments that I was making about my experience and this not being a good first office visit experience. I asked several times to speak with the owner / dentist and was refused several times. It wasn't until I demanded to speak with them that I was given the opportunity to speak with the dentist and his wife. I spoke with his wife who apologized and listened to my issue, then I went in to speak with the dentist who also half-heartedly apologized and heard my complaint. Amazingly there WAS a block of time open for them to take my wife and me and we were offered that block, but after speaking with the dentist and him asking me about if I was going to continue to hold a grudge into the future, I decided that this was not the place for my family and me. The dentist went on to tell me that he has many people who hold grudges against the office staff and he didn't want that. I asked him to think about what he was saying and that if he has many issues with his office staff then why not address that issue and stop blaming the patients who come to him for treatment. This place obviously has staffing / attitude issues and they do not care or adjust if they make scheduling errors. The dentist obviously has no issue with the staff disrespecting his clients and backs them simply because they have longevity and have worked for his father's practice for some time. They will hold their ground and blame YOU as the patient. I was accused of not having gotten a text, which I did, from them about my appointment to asking me if my wife or I cancelled the appointment that they didn't even see in their system in the first place. DO NOT GO HERE and if you do go here, I would think about going elsewhere. We went to Yentz Dental in Monroe and they took my wife and me in with open arms, were pleasant, kind and accommodating, getting me in for Xrays and exam when I walked in and scheduling my cleaning in the next few weeks. I went to Westwood as a new client and left having been disrespected and mocked. The ultimate reason for my review isn't because of a mistake, it is because of disrespect, mocking and an unwillingness to fix the error that they made or allow me to speak with the boss / dentist / owner.
