Michael & Company, CPA

I've been in the dental industry over 16 years as a distribution representative and have worked alongside my share of CPA's when helping dentists decide how/when to purchase equipment. Most public accountants simply do not take the time to understand the dental industry and obstacles dentists are challenged with. It usually shows up towards the end of the year.Over the years I have run into Bassim and his team a few times and have admired his commitment to integrity and to do the right thing all the time. He understands his importance as it relates to his clients but does a great job of humbly educating an industry that doesn't have his level of business knowledge. For the last few years, I refer Bassim exclusively to the dentists I serve. He and his team do the necessary learning to be up to date as it relates to the dental industry and he's always ahead of the curve, actively contacting his clients to notify them of changes. Probably the biggest thing I appreciate and respect about Bassim personally, is his common sense approach to work with dentists who value him and his team. If you are a dentist who considers yourself to be in the Top 5% please give him a call.

This firm is great at what they do. Very knowledgeable, attentive and very high tech. I use them for my bookkeeping and my tax filling and I am very impressed with all the different software's they use to facilitate everything, very easy to use but yet very confidential and secure. Anytime I have questions I get responses within a timely manner. Everyone is very nice and helpful as well. I would definitely recommend them to my colleagues. Actually I wish they would take non dental clients so I could refer all my family and friends as well!

We have been working with Michael & Company, CPA for years for both of our dental offices and have nothing but great experiences year after year. The entire staff is incredibly responsive and has helped us through numerous situations that have come up in the past. They are reliable, honest and have guided us to do what is best for our practices. They are a team that we whole heartedly rely on and have referred them to all of our colleagues in the industry.

Professional, honest, knowledgeable, and available. I always feel as if he has my best interests at heart. Highly recommended for any business owner.

I have never used a CPA prior to Bassim Michael. Prior to this experience, I used online softwares like Turbotax and H&R block to do my taxes and worked out fine. But after getting married and having moved states, I decided to give a try with a professional. Originally, I had high hopes for Michael & Company (Only for dentists) as they came to speak to residents regarding tax needs and one of my colleagues have recommended him. He seemed knowledgeable regarding student loans as well. We set up our first meeting and it went ok as it was mainly introductions and passing along documents for him to prepare. However, this is when things started to go downhill. As a first timer using a CPA, I had a few questions regarding my taxes and the process. But, I never really felt like I was getting a thorough explanation from him. In addition, it was difficult to get ahold of Bassim directly when you call his office. His assistant however was very polite and attempted to help us which we appreciated. Then things got worse after we mailed out our tax preparation. We got a notice from the state reporting that we still owe money. Of course, we immediately asked Bassim and he told us that the state had made an error and to send them certain documents to rectify the issue. So we went ahead and sent the documents to the state. Three months later, we get yet another notice from the state reporting that we still owe them money and now there is a small interest/late fee added. Again we spoke to Bassim, this time, instead of taking accountability for the tax return he prepared, he sent an email laying out the hours he spent preparing our taxes and how we should be lucky that we got a discount as a first timer. Also, he told us that we should just pay the money to the state at this point as he will charge us $225/hr to give us advice. I felt extremely offended by this as I strongly feel that if you are providing a service, you should stand by your work, have accountability and proper follow up regardless of a discount (which he chose to give us on his own)In any line of work including mine, I do not feel it is appropriate to provide discriminatory or partial service just because you gave someone a "discount" I would avoid this company or person if possible.

If you are looking for a CPA / Business Advisor I would suggest talking to Bassim. He should be on your short list of people to talk to.

Awesome, very fast professionals that get's their work done very fast ... Great staff and very welcoming ... Would highly recommend them to anyone that wants to have a successful businesses ... They treat you as family with high respect and understanding of your needs, as well as offer highly professional advises from their trained advisors.

I started working with Bassim and Viola since I bought my dental practice a little over 4 yrs ago. Bassim an Viola has been with me since the start. I never have to worry about the accounting part of my dental office since I know Bassim and Viola always looks after it for me. I am so busy with my business that I really do not have any time to worry about this side of my business. Bassim and his staff are always on top of things. They handle all aspect of my accounting, from payroll to tax returns. Thank you!

They dealt with "Business Only", and wasted my time by scheduling appointment with me. They should update their website saying "No Individual Facing"!

I have been with This CPA company for about 10 years. the service is great, very knowledgeable in tax laws for dentists, timely, very professional and extremely nice.
