Nadia Goldstar5 StarI recently had the pleasure of working with Abby and the great team at Beautiful Smiles DC, and I can't say enough good things about them! From the moment I arrived, Abby's clear and friendly communication made a world of difference. She took the time to explain my insurance options in detail, ensuring I understood everything without feeling overwhelmed.
Her patience and expertise helped me navigate the sometimes confusing insurance landscape, and I truly appreciated her willingness to answer all my questions. It’s refreshing to encounter someone who genuinely cares about their patients and strives to make the experience as smooth as possible.
If you’re looking for someone knowledgeable and approachable, I highly recommend Abby and the great team! Thank you, Beautiful Smiles DC.Thursday 3rd October 2024

Nanthini Kunaseharan1 StarUPDATE: Called the dental office today and spoke to Abby the office manager. She said that whatever insurance does not cover for the out of network fees, they will zero out on the account, and said that the X-rays that their office did not take, was maybe accidentally sent to insurance because the hygienist did not pay attention and that it will get removed. I double confirmed with her as of December 23 2024, that my balance will be zeroed out after they receive payment from insurance.
The other one star reviews are true. As someone who used to work in a dental office and handled billing/dental insurance claims, it is becoming clear that this office is involved in unethical and unlawful practices, mainly to get people to pay out of network costs for a simple dental cleaning. Backstory: I booked my appointment on ZocDoc over a month prior to my visit. I already had dental x-rays taken at another office 6 months ago, so I emailed my x-rays over to their general info inbox at [email protected]. The day before my appointment, I called the front desk to confirm my appointment that I made through ZocDoc. She could not find my appointment on their calendar and asked when I made my appointment. I told her I made it over a month ago with Dr. Summer Lane through ZocDoc for a general cleaning, because of the availabilities it showed and that she was in-networth with my insurance. She finally found my appointment but told me that she could schedule my cleaning an hour later than what I had originally scheduled for on ZocDoc. I told her that was fine. On the day of the appointment, I asked if they had received the x-rays I sent over, because I wanted to make sure they were not going to take x-rays again and bill my insurance for them, knowing that they won't be covered. Once I was in the chair, I saw a different provider (Dr. Urwashi Dubey - we happened to work together 6 years ago at another dental office) instead of who I had originally scheduled the dental cleaning with: Dr. Summer Lane. Nobody from office told me that they would be switching my providers or that my cleaning/doctor would be someone different than who I had intended to see. A week after that visit, I received an EOB stating that I owe $608 out of pocket because 1) They billed my insurance again for x-rays that were not taken at their office or at the visit and 2) Dr. Urwashi Dubey (who is listed as this office's owner) is not in-network with my insurance. Having worked with her before, I don't question her medical expertise as a general dentist. I do however, question the unethical practice of their office, credentialing processes of their dentists and billing processes. It seems very apparent that this is a tactic used by their office, evidently from the other reviews I have seen, to get people to pay out of pocket for their dental cleaning. This would be in violation of HIPAA privacy regulation as informed consent must be provided including disclosing the identity of the treating provider. Additional ethical consideration from the ADA code of ethics emphasizes the importance of transparency and communication with patients, which includes informing patients about the changes in providers. I have sent multiple emails with evidence and have not heard back from them regarding this issue, as I would like this matter resolved by the end of the year. If it isn't, they can expect me to seek other methods to get it resolved. For issues pertaining to this matter, please send communications to [email protected].Monday 23rd December 2024
