Great Neck & Mid-Island Dental Associates

I have been a patient for more than 30 years at this practice but sadly will be leaving.
Dr Amoira is FANTASTIC. Compassionate, knowledgeable, and a terrific dentist however.since becoming part of the corporate practice, prices are exceedingly high and the front desk staff (at least the ones I met at my last visit) are not friendly and certainly do not make one feel like a valued client. As a health care provider in practice myself, I would never tolerate from my staff the way they treat patients.
While I will miss Dr Amoira, I will not patronize a practice where i am treated in a less than professional manner.

My child has been a patient of Dr Sinha's for about 7 years. He is a great pediatric dentist. If this review was solely about him it would be a 5 star review. My issue is with the front office/billing staff. The office no longer feels warm it welcoming. It feels cold and unfriendly. For starters I had to contact the office several times just to book an appointment. I left several voicemails without a single call back. Today my child had her first visit post Covid. The billing staff wanted me to pay for my full visit and submit for reimbursement through my insurance. That was never part of their procedure in the past. They should have communicated they were making those changes. Obviously they aren't based off of reviews made prior to mine. When I asked why the staff explained that I am out of network. I know that I am out of network. I watched as one of them manually calculated what I should pay. When I asked why the computer doesn't automatically let them know the fee, she was rude and could only repeat that I am out of network. She continued to say that in the past I always short paid. Correction I always paid what I was told my balance would be. If there was any slight difference they would bill me after for the difference with no issues. You can't change policies without communicating to your patients. If you respect and value your patients you communicate so they don't walk into surprises. The staff member I dealt with was rude and abrupt, not to mention she simply just walked away from me. Once again I know I am out of Network and chose to pay extra because I loved having Dr Sinha as my child's dentist. I already moved away from their Orthodontist services as I had bad experiences with Dr Lewkowitz. Unfortunately after my experience with the billing staff today I will be taking my child away from a great pediatric dentist. The office staff is the face of a business and they are running patients away from great dentists.

Dr. Morhaim is an excellent Periodontist. He informs you of all options and their respective pros and cons. I came to Dr. Sam Morhaim under the recommendation of my dentist so I knew I was in the absolute best and most professional care. If you're in search of a periodontist, I highly recommend Dr. Sam Morhaim to everyone. He is the best dentist I have ever had.

Our family have been patients for over 15 years but sadly, we will be leaving. Love the dentists but their new billing/payment procedures where you have to pay everything upfront is unacceptable. For 15 years, they submitted bills to the insurance and we would pay the balance. Now, they want hundreds and thousands of dollars upfront. I’m tired of negotiating with the people at the front desk. It’s sad but I found a dentist that will submit the bills to the insurance and wont be charging a $10 PPE fee. Dentistry is expensive as it is and they are collecting an additional $10 per visit.

I found a stent establishment the best place I've ever been to I recommend it to everybody my teeth will clean beautifully the dentist examine my teeth perfectly I'm so happy

I would have given a higher review if it was based solely on the dentist. However, the office staff and billing department are a nightmare. I paid approximately $6700 up front and when they filled out my j stranded they put send check to Mid Island Great neck. The check was cashed April 22nd and I have still not been reimbursed. I have called at least 50 times and emailed I don’t know many times and already received the check my secondary insurance. Now I have to go for a follow up and they have the nerve to charge me $10 for PPR expenses. They should be giving me $10 for what I have been going through. When Debbie was there this would have never happened and if by chance it did, it would have rectified immediately.

Will never take our Daughter here again. At a routine check up, Dr Abi Sinha informed us our Daughter needed 2 sealants and we made an appointment for the following week. When we came back Dr Sinha placed in 6 sealants without informing us. All of a sudden at the front desk that's when I was informed of the extra hundreds of dollars of payment. We feel he took advantage of the situation, made no effort to "inform" us of his plotting to rip us off and we're filing a complaint to the American Dental Association

I have been a patient of Dr. Dallal for many years and love him. He is a fantastic dentist and I have always received wonderful and compassionate care from him. The same holds true for the hygienists and other dentists whom I have seen in the practice. However.the new billing procedures are outrageous. I acknowledge I am out of network but have always been. In the past, I only had to pay the difference for what my dental insurance did not cover. When I visited today I was surprised that I had to pay everything upfront - over $1,000. I also always received a senior discount but was told that was only for people who did not have insurance and that a mistake had been made in the past. I would have given five stars for the care, but took two away for the new policies.

Great pediatric dentist - my fussy kids sat trough the entire procedure. Very clean and professional office. Pricey - but which dentist isn’t these days.

I was charged an enormous amount before I was even seen. When I was finished I was charged another enormous amount and was then told that they do not accept my insurance.
The dental hygienist was warm, friendly and knowledgeable as always. The other staff was incompetent, unfriendly and aloof. Since Dr. Tyrangel retired the office has gone down considerably and is not the same quality
that I knew for over 25 years from when the practice was in Bayside. I will have to reconsider continuing with this practice

To charge a $10 fee for PPE, that your staff is already required to do is wrong. The cost of PPE should already be part of the offices operating expenses. It is not like you are expecting me to wear the PPE. You need to rethink your policy.
If your response is, "well other offices are doing it", think again.
Everytime a staff member leaves a room they should also have to change their PPE. Your office is not a completely sterile environment.

If I was just rating Dr. Sinha this review would have gotten 5 stars instead of the three stars that I gave it. The main reason for the three stars is because they now charge you the entire bill and you have to wait for the insurance company to reimburse you. This is all now done in the name of a new policy due to COVID. This is horrible because if you are in dire need of an extraction, it won't happen until you cough-up the money first. The office is very clean and the staff is super courteous and friendly.

My wife and I have been satisfied clients of GNDA for years. It made perfect sense to bring my 89 year old mother there, too.

Dr. Weiner is awesome been going to this dentist since it was in bayside, started with Dr Do until she left and Dr Weiner is seriously great. I honestly never have a problem here everyone is so friendly and so nice, billing sometimes gets a little mixed up but it's not something that was never fixed. I'm 24 now and I'd never choose another dentist! It's been my whole life basically at this place.

Customers for over 20 years. Love these guys especially Dr. Dallal and Dr. Amoya. You're in good hands

When I re-located from Florida, my girlfriend [now my wife] introduced me to this, wonderful, caring dental practice. I have now been looked after by them for over 25 years, and cannot recommend them highly enough.

Excellent pediatric dentistry. I've been bringing my son here since he was 2. The staff is very well experienced and do a great job making the whole visit fun and comfortable for small kids. Excellent children's waiting area, reserved parking and valet service put it over the top. If my dentist wasn't a family friend, I would switch dentists and come here.

I was recommended by a colleague, it was one of the best recommendations I've ever received. The staff is amazing, friendly and extremely polite. The dentist Dr. Sinha and the hygienist Bita did a great job reassuring and calming down my very anxious 10 year old son. 5 Stars!

Dr. Karen Lewkowitz is outstanding. In my opinion, she is among the best orthodontists in the country. Her work is exceptionally strong. She also goes the extra mile consistently. She has a genuine interest in making sure that all of her clients are extremely happy. She is also very friendly and nice with a great sense of humor. My expectations were exceeded on every level. I highly recommend Dr. Lewkowitz.

I have been a patient of this office for years, and have been seen by almost all of the dentists on staff. You're in really good hands with the dentists/hygienists, everything from a cleaning to bonding is done with great skill and care. The front desk staff is helpful and friendly. I love that the office recently started offering its own insurance plan, as my work does not provide dental.
