My husband and I recently relocated to the area and had a difficult time finding a dental office that accepts Tricare dental insurance. There are actually 5 offices near our home and Konikoff is the only provider to accept it. I am so grateful!As a hygienist of many years, I am very picky and critical of dental service. My appointment at Konikoff was wonderful! They are very thorough from the receptionists to the treatment area. My hygienist Autumn, was knowledgeable and funny. It felt more like we were old friends catching up than an actual dental appointment. I don't have dental anxiety, but if I did, she would have put me at ease. I would recommend Konikoff to new and existing members of the Chesapeake community. They value the patient and it shows.

Sooooo.... I hadn't been to the dentist in 7-8 years. The last time I'd been in that chair, my hygienist made me feel like the most disgusting person on Earth. I was so embarrassed, I avoided the dentist for all that time. Well this year, I thought I'd get over that, and GND's "shame-free" environment just seemed like the perfect fit!Roberta was so great at explaining the process, calming my nerves, taking care of my insurance and actually getting me into the office for this huge milestone of a dentist appointment. Before we did any work, she gave me a treatment plan with the price schedule outlined, so I knew what I was getting into financially as well. On the day of my first appointment, before I ever got to the chair, I sat down with Dr. Niver and Krishna to talk about all my dentist horror stories, my expectations, and my wildest dreams as well. I was almost, ALMOST, moved to tears by how genuinely understanding they were. Not quite, though ;)I had two deep cleanings, with scalings and root planings (I hope that's the right terminology!), and both were super easy. Krishna got me nice and numb, and I didn't feel a darn thing. 2 weeks later, my gums look like they did 9 years ago. Amazing work, and I can't WAIT to go for my follow up in the next few weeks. That's right, I actually LIKE the dentist now!If you're scared to go back to the dentist because it's been so long, THIS is the place you need to be.

I've finally decided to give up on Konikoff after giving them every benefit of the doubt and truly trying to make it work since I don't like switching providers. Red flag went up last year after seeing a certain hygienist and getting lectured at every...single...appointment. You need this, you need that, you need to do this, you need to do that. Enough already. I then requested a note on my account to never schedule us with her again. The next one I got also lectured me. I tried to brush it off and even requested another note put on our accounts to stop lecturing us. Our most recent visits, mine was okay, but they told my 16-year-old son that his teeth are going to fall out if he doesn't start brushing better. I totally get it, but I have never in my life, even as a child, had a dentist tell me my teeth are going to fall out. He was really upset about that and how the visit went overall for him. My 19-year-old son just had his appointment and told me they told him the same thing along with some other negative things, and he was also very upset and scared to death. After sharing my experiences with him about the negativity and constant lecturing, he said he also overheard conversations of patients next to him in which they were being told this is wrong, that is wrong, go see this specialist, etc. I completely understand that we need to know if there are issues with our teeth, but again, in all the dentists I've been to throughout my whole life, I have never, ever experienced such negativity and lecturing as I have with Konikoff over the past four or five years we've been with them. I have to trust my gut instinct in thinking something just isn't right here. We will be canceling our future appointments and seeking care elsewhere. And, no, I don't want to contact the office directly because I've decided our relationship with Konikoff has come to an end.

My son had a procedure done back in July and was charged $132.90 as a co-pay. Later, the insurance company sent a statement showing that the payment from them to Konikoff Edinburgh was $168 out of the negotiated $240 charge. According to the insurance company, patient responsibility is $72. I contacted the Konikoff office and asked if they agreed with this and, if so, what was their plan to resolve this and return the $60.90 due him/us. It seems that the office believes it's my son' responsibility to contact them to discuss. It seems that since it was the office, Konikoff Edinburgh, made the error, they could simply credit his card with the amount. I've sent follow-up emails to the office manager and have only received a response the first time, stating that her insurance person would look into it. No further replies. Bad show, Konikoff, bad show.

The staff was very friendly. They made my son feel very comfortable and at ease with his procedure. I would definitely recommend!

Can't say enough about how truly fabulous this office is. From the start they make you feel at ease by getting to know you as something than just another patient. They take an interest in each patient with a sit down conversation before you even get into the chair. Every effort is made to calm any nerves that you might have. Throughout the examination and cleaning they explain exactly what they are doing and why. They also tell you what they are finding. If there's anything that your insurance might not cover, i.e. Fluoride, they inform you of that and what the out of pocket cost is if you decide to do it anyway. The atmosphere is very relaxing and reassuring. Can't say enough about how great the experience was.

Everyone I encountered was very wonderful, knowledgeable and helpful. (Especially Krishna!) Updated technology, reasonably priced (even without dental insurance) and had a very personable and at-home feeling. Thank you for taking care of me & my smile!
