Parvathi K Pokala, DDS

I have been to 3 pediatric dentists in our children’s little lives and dr Pokala by far is the best. She is very educated skilled and trained in the field of pediatric dentistry. I could not give more than 5 stars but I would do 10 if I could. Our children are excited to go to her and their teeth are better because of her! We have 5 children and even our 2 year old sits still in her chair.
Don’t look any further. I highly recommend. I am also in the medical field and take referrals and reviews seriously. You won’t be disappointed!

I have been exceptionally pleased with this dental office! When my son was two years old, I allowed him to eat too many fruit snacks without adequately cleaning his teeth. Mommy fail. Over the past couple of years Dr. Pokala’s associates have extracted the ruined baby molar and installed a spacer to prevent crowding by new teeth. The office staff sends multiple appointment reminders via email and text. They are very efficient with their check-​in process. Also, most everyone on staff obviously loves kids and does their best to create a positive experience for both kids and parents. I highly recommend.

Dr. Pokala and Dr Chawla have been my children’s dentist since they day they had the first teeth come out. My children have been with them now for 10 years. They are kind and very professional. She is honest and tells you what things you need to do to keep your children teeth in good health. Thank you Dr. Pokala and Dr. Chawla for taking good care of my Little ones, couldn’t do it without you.

Let me start off by stating Dr. Pokala and Dr. Chawla are amazing and wonderful with my children. They have been seeing these doctors for the past 5 years. They have handled a chip tooth, a handful of cavities and countless temper tantrums. They really are wonderful doctors.
The office staff is a different story. It’s a total hit and miss. Some of the office staff really seem miserable, like they hate their jobs. The insurance claims can be a pain. We always are receiving checks or paying balances.
However, the doctors keep us coming back.

I wasn’t very happy with my kids’ previous dentist so I made an appointment with Dr. Pokala after she was highly recommended by our orthodontist. I wish I’d made the switch much sooner! Dr. Pokala was kind and calming to my high-​strung daughter and very thorough. I was happy to be allowed to stay with my daughter during the examination (the previous dentist didn’t allow it) and Dr. Pokala took the time to review all the x-​rays and show me the many problem areas in my daughter’s mouth. We left her office with a treatment plan including what we could do preventatively at home. I felt empowered. I now have a lot of tools to address my daughter’s dental issues. Additionally, the office was clean and staff was very friendly and helpful.

Everyone is extremely nice at the office. I love how they allow the parents to be right there with their children to comfort them the whole time.

Dr. Pokala is an amazing dentist. The staff are outstanding. I am always grateful to dr. Pokala and her associates. Both my son’s love coming to Dr. Pokala’s office

My kids Dentist rocks! As a former child with a horrible personal history of bad Dental experiences I was nervous about bringing my child in for any dental work whatsoever. Of course my daughter ends up being born with GERD and all her baby teeth came in rotten. We have had to have a lot of work done in my kids mouth and believe me when I say my child has a difficult time sitting for any period of time. It’s a miracle that my child loves her Dentist and I would highly recommend Dr. Pokala to friends, family,…strangers. If your child needs work done this is the place to do it.

They are so professional and caring there that our son ask to visit her again… we have been going there for 2 years now

The staff was over all very nice but the recepcionist could greet patients instead of saying «checking in»?

Dr. Pokala provides outstanding service to our children. She makes them very relaxed and comfortable. I would highly recommend her for paediatriac dental care.

Kind and polite service! Dr Pokala is a great dentist I highly recommend her practice for everybody who is looking for a caring doctor.

Feel comfortable with my special needs kids.

My children have been patients of Dr. Pokala for 10 years and their teeth are in excellent health. My oldest daughter is in a wheelchair and non-​verbal and my youngest is a typical 10 year– old little girl. They both enjoy their healthy teeth. Dr. Pokala is Board Certified and a highly skilled dentist. She has educated me and guided me in caring for children’s teeth. More important I trust her knowledge and skill in pediatric dentistry. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a well-​trained pediatric dentist that you trust.

My son has been a patient here for the last 6 years and has received nothing but excellent care. Dr Pokala is an excellent dentist. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone. She is very kind, caring, and professional. My son used to be terrified of the dentist, but thanks to her and her caring and patient staff he is now comfortable coming here.

Dr. Pokala awesomest pediatric dentist.
I go there to Observe her and if I have to describe her in one word I would say Awesomest pediatric dentist I have ever known. I m glad that I have an opportunity to know and observe her. I just love her. She is a doc full of knowledge and knows right polite way to treat kids with certain behavior.
Dr. Pokala and her staff all are fantastic, Gentle, kind & friendly.

Man, I LOVE Dr. Pokala! I have been going to her since I was 3 years old. She is one of the best pediatric dentists around. Dr. Pokala really knows how to work with children. Trust me, I should know considering I wasn’t the best patient when I was a child. If anyone is looking for a pediatric dentist who cares, Dr. Pokala is your woman!

This review is for Pokala Parvathi DDS Pediatric Dentistry Office. I wanted to make a first appointment for my child and this is what happened:
The first time I called to make the appointment, I was told she was too young (less than 1 year) and to call back when she was older.
I called when she turned one, and someone kept picking up the phone, and hanging it up. Thinking it was a mistake, I kept calling, and the phone kept being picked up and hung up without a word. Finally the fourth call I got voicemail. I left a detailed message on a THURSDAY asking for them to call me back when it was convenient for them to take my business.
No word, for 8 days. I called them back at 9:00 AM (not to early, not to late) on a Friday and guess what? The front desk person said «oh yes, I just listened to the messages, and I was planning on calling you back.» After 8 days?!? I should hope so! But now I’m being cautious.
Do you take my insurance? «Let me check» she says. 10 minutes pass. «Well no one here can tell me yes or no, and my manager is out right now. Can you call back later?» Are you frigging kidding me? You don’t even know which medical insurance providers you accept or don’t?
Considering that you have five doctors who see multiple patients in an affluent suburb, I would expect that you would have at least a competent level of staff that at the VERY MINMUM can answer phones, make appointments and take insurance information down! I can’t review the treatment of children here, but considering the obstacles that this office places on new customers, I strongly recommend that you take your business elsewhere.

all of my kids teeth has been taken care of by dr pokala. she makes kids comfortable and very nice. kids trust her very much and they never cries. also love the waiting room that keeps kids busy with movies, drawing activities and so on. they also love lil gift bag (tooth brush&fross&toothpaste).

We have been going to Dr. Pokala for nearly 2 years now and are so happy with Dr. Pokala and her entire staff. They are excellent with our family, excellent demeaner with the kids to get the to cooperate as well as to educate them on the importance of oral hygiene. I would highly recommend this office and staff to parents with kids of all dispositions — — easy, difficult, scared, anxious, etc.
This is one office I am happy I found! My kids look forward to seeing Dr. Pokala and her staff. They always leave happy and with a smile (even on the day for a filling!)
