Dr.Meena Shah doesn’t leave a single instant of snatching money from her pts. I went to her office 3 weeks pregnant with a very bad tooth ache. She goes that there is nothing she can do and that i need a potential root canal. I being desperate told her if she could do it since the pain was unbearable. She goes to me that i will start the process for 400 and in between you come in for dressing change for 150 and i put cap after you deliver. However, once she goes in all she does is pulp cap and cavity which btw was covered by my insurance. The next thing you know is that i end up with the worst pain of my life and i ended up in the Er. The next day i had to get emergency root canal and the dentist told me that whoever did the work on you had no clue what they were doing. I am extremely shocked with the behavior and all the reviews here make perfect sense. I don’t understand why this place is running in the first place. Planning on getting the money back or i will file the lawsuit

Meena Shah is the best dentist I've ever been to. You can really talk to her and she is a true artist with her work.

Best dental experience. It was my first time visiting this dental office. The staff were friendly and professional. They all had great smiles. I felt relaxed and I'm afraid of being treated by a dentist. It was a wonderful experience. Dr. Shah was impressive and runs an efficient dental clinic. She gave me excellent care and I would highly recommend her to others. I would even wait to see her because I know she will give me the best care. On my first visit I had xrays done a deep gum dental cleaning antibiotic gum treatment and a few fillings done. It was all pain free wonderful.

Every negative review on this establishment is all true!!
Save your time and money and do not see this DDS.
She is unprofessional and the only thing she cares about is charging you with no work being done.
I took my 75 years old mother there as a referral and she did absolutely nothing but wasted our time.
Continued to scheduled appointments and the only thing she did was continued to charge.
She stood with my mom deposit of $350 and again did absolutely nothing!!
She deserves no stars!!!
Had to give her one just to be able to post

listen.. if you can find another dentist, please do. Dr. Meena Shah will drill in your teeth purposely, do shoddy dental work that will need revision and make you pay for things you do not need. not to mention the 1.5 hour wait time tops... dont come here , I regret going to this place, She will tell you things that you don’t need just to get your money, DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!

So bad. The office and exam room are filthy. I had a tooth for which I needed assistance, and Meena Shaw said, "that's too hard, I can't do that one". She then charged me $400 out of pocket, for bonding on other teeth, which she swore I needed. Two months later, it's all chipping off. So, not only did she not fix my bad tooth, but she ruined my good teeth. Avoid this woman like the plague. I'm going to file a malpractice suit.

We are a family of five and we were penalized for it. Our wait time was always about four hours although we were the first appointment. She has a total of four rooms and we were told that we were"lucky" she allowed us in two of them at one time. Two at a time, and the other rooms were occupied by clients arriving after us.
My son and I had to return for fillings, this time only one of us were allowed in a room. Three hours later we were done. Again, we were there first appointments. I told the dentist that I didn't believe this was fair and she said once again, that I was "lucky" to have gotten the work done in three hours.
So my family and I will take our "lucky" business elsewhere.
Also, my tooth completely cracked.
Wonderful staff, they constantly apologized for the dentist.

I’ve been waiting for Dr. Meena Shah for an hour and a half and she just arrived at the office. The staff is nice enough but the facility is very dingy. Most of all I’m giving this practice 1 star because the dentist is 90 minutes late, I’ve been done with my x rays and cleaning for quite a while and there are a lot of other patients she’s kept waiting. It will probably be 2 hours before I’m done here for a simple dental exam. Come here if you’re in the mood to wait around all day.

At first it was ok, but after going to her 18 months she tells me that I had to pay out of pocket for some bonding on my tooth that prior 6 months before I never had to pay. Then I called to get the code and the secretary says I have to wait for her to call me with it but till this day never got that phone call. She's always busy so I reported her to the insurance company and they said she was supposed to submit a claim not charged me out of pocket. Shame on her. I'm done with this place.

Dr. Meena Shah made a huge difference in my smile and my confidence. From the start her gentle smile and confidence took away any apprehension. My bridge came out beautifully. I plan having more work done. The office staff is wonderful and so helpful.
