Dr. Umanoff DDS

The place is super clean, the doctor is professional and polite, and I don't know how he is working because I was only on a consultation, than canceled my next appointment because of the billing issue. My review is so low because on the front desk, I was told that they accept my insurance, and my consultation is covered, and they give me the amount after my insurance that I will pay. Before my procedure, I received a text with a completely different balance. When I looked up to the claim (I am a Medical biller and a Coder for many years), the reason for denial is Out Of Network, which usually doesn't cover much and means they don't accept my insurance. So I assumed if I wouldn't know anything about billing, I would pay a lot. I paying for my insurance like most of the people, and I think everyone deserves to know the truth - if you accept my insurance or not. It supposed to be my choice, maybe I want to go to In Network provider? That's the lie I can't stand. People be very careful!

Dr. Umanoff's office is clean and modern, boasting some of the newest dental equipment that I've seen. I am a patient at this office, as well as my father, and we have had generally good experiences with dental procedures both routine and complex. The staff are friendly and amicable, if maybe a little aggressive with the appointment reminders (you'll never miss your appointment after the 4th call).

About a year ago my wisdom tooth began aching, and I had to look for a good dentist to fix it. The dentist I visited on Ocean parkway suggested no other treatment but tooth extraction. It would be a last resort for me, and I didn’t like his approach to my treatment. Also, he sounded so unprofessional when he was addressing me very informally, which was very rude and a sign of bad manners for the medical business. Anyway, after that "treatment" I kept looking for another dentist online. The choice fell on Dr. Umanoff. And Bingo! I found my dentist. PROS: 1. Always friendly, professional and efficient front office. 2. I had a treatment I was looking for my wisdom tooth: a) The root canal was done. b) Wonderful Dr. Silvia did tooth onlay using the state of art dental technology. She kept answering all my questions and concerns regarding this type of teeth restoration until I was fully assured that this treatment would be the best option for my tooth. 3. Dental hygienist Nadya is a real expert in her area and just a nice person to be around. CONS: none.

Superb experience overall! The office is modern and neat. The stuff is always friendly and helpful. Most important, high level professionals are working there utilizing high end technology tools (really, I've never seen x-ray machine which looks like my photo camera)!

HORRIBLE WENT FROM GOOD TO POOR, since when does a patient not have a say in their treatment. I was denied treatment today due to my decline of Lidocaine. Stay away from this trashy excuse for a dental office. Umnoff used to be compassionate, but is now a phony who states he cares, but the actions don't line up.This was very clear today.

Thank you Dr. Umanoff for doing a fantastic job on my dental implants. I looked for a dentist near me that has the best technology and price. Dr Umanoff was able to accommodate both.

Great office and experience
