List of Stein Dental Care's Reviews
Called at 8 in the evening, in at 8 in the morning next day. Very wonderful man. He was kind and very helpful.
Great Staff And Affordable Service
Made an emergency appointment and they saw me same day. Great team and Dr. Stein are true professionals. Walked in with a cracked tooth and in pain, left with a crown that saved my tooth and peace of mind. Easy and simple 12 month 0% financing for the procedure. 💯 recommend
Dr.Stein and crew are fantastic!
I love Stein Dental Care. ❤️
To respond to your previous reply: Thank you for your response. I understand that there may be legal or ethical restrictions in some cases, but I believe it is important for patients to be informed upfront that the doctor may refuse treatment if they decline an X-ray. This would help avoid unnecessary appointments and wasted time. Additionally, your statement that “the doctor could not move ahead without a clear picture of the affected tooth’s overall health” is inaccurate. There was no “affected tooth” in terms of health concerns—I accidentally chipped the bonding on my tooth, not the tooth itself. There was no underlying issue that needed evaluation. The bonding simply needed to be redone, as I’ve had it repaired in the past without requiring an X-ray. This experience felt dishonest and like a tactic to push unnecessary charges. Had I been told in advance that I would be turned away without an X-ray, I would not have wasted my time. I hope my review helps others make a more informed decision before scheduling an appointment.

I understand that there may be legal or ethical restrictions in some cases, but I believe it is important for patients to be informed upfront that the doctor may refuse treatment if they decline an X-ray. This would help avoid unnecessary appointments and wasted time. In my case, I have had my bonding repaired in the past without needing an X-ray. Since this was simply a chipped bonding, I do not believe an X-ray was necessary. I found this practice to be extremely misleading, as I was not informed in advance that I would be turned away without one. Unfortunately, this resulted in a completely wasted visit. I hope my review helps others who might find themselves in a similar situation so they can make a more informed decision.
Disappointing and Dishonest Experience I had a very frustrating experience with this dental office. When I called to make my appointment, I specifically asked if an X-ray would be necessary for a chipped tooth with bonding (my actual tooth did not chip - the bonding chipped), and I was told it was not required. Based on this information, I scheduled my visit and drove to the office, only to be told by Dr. Stein that he would not treat me unless I paid for an X-ray. This felt incredibly dishonest and like a classic bait-and-switch tactic. If I had been told upfront that an X-ray was mandatory, I could have made an informed decision about whether to proceed. Instead, I wasted my time and left without receiving the care I needed. To be fair, the office staff was very friendly, and I’m sure this is a great place if you’re a long-term patient. However, Dr. Stein was rude and dismissive, and I cannot recommend this office for anyone seeking simple dental work. Transparency and honesty matter, and unfortunately, that was not my experience here. To respond to your reply: Thank you for your response.

Wonderful people. I really like my Doctor and her staff.
I called to schedule an appointment after looking on my insurance website for a dentist; and scheduled it the day after I called. I then asked to make sure my insurance was taken and gave them my member id. They said it was accepted. They also told me their new location was 4 minutes away from the place it “was previously”. (Was always there). It was a 45 minute bike ride from the “old location” that I’m glad I didn’t take because when I got there after my girlfriend offered to drive me, the insurance was magically not taken. And they tried charging me 100$ for the first exam. What a waste and a scam.

Selection Criteria
All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
