Michael Kostrov DMD – Comprehensive Dental Care

I loved Dr. Kostrov and most of the staff at Comprehensive Dental Care. Unfortunately there is one assistant that puts a hamper on all the great service they provide. Were it not for her and her negative attitude, I would have given 5 stars. Dr. Kostrov is wonderful. He explains everything and is very professional in all that he does. He is very careful to keep you comfortable and informed. The dental hygienist is also great as are the technicians. Just that assistant ruins it for me. I don’t even want to talk to her on the phone because she gives me attitude. When I was at the office the other day I mentioned I was in a rush and she snapped at me and shook her head as she prepared my receipt. If she continues with that attitude I may consider changing dentists, I love this dentist but I have too much on my plate to deal with someone with such poor people skills.

Just switched to Comprehensive Dental and am very happy with the change.
Dr. Kostrov was personable and thorough; he took his time going over each of my concerns and explained his recommendations for my treatment plan. He was pretty conservative and opted to monitor changes rather than tacking on more procedures right away. Whereas my previous hygienist was pretty hit or miss, my mouth actually feels totally and noticeably cleaner after a cleaning here. When I said I had some hot/​cold sensitivity, the hygienist gave me like 5 different samples of toothpaste to try, which I thought was really sweet. Both the exam and cleaning were gentle and… actually pleasant!
The staff is just as great. I filled out an online appointment request on Friday afternoon, and was shocked that someone took the time to call me (The office was CLOSED, mind you) and squeezed me in first thing Monday morning. I’m so used to the usual DC tactic of «call the patient at 4:50pm on Friday so I don’t have to deal with more work before I get off at 5.» I’ve seen some good doctors and specialists in DC, but Comprehensive Dental has the best staff I’ve seen so far.

Awesome staff!!! Dr. Kostrov is very patient and spends time explaining everything. I highly reccomend him! The hygenist was very thorough and my teeth feel terrific!

I consider myself the world’s worst dental phobic… but Dr. Kostrov and Dr. Marx and their office staff has made me feel more confident in going to a dentist. They are gentle, very understanding and have tons of patience with someone who is almost afraid of opening her mouth…(I now am able at least to get an exam and some work done). I have a great deal of work to be done in my mouth but I feel I am in the right hands for specialty treatment. The office is well maintained and professional and the equipment and dental procedures are up to date and beyond. I highly recommend Dr. Kostrov and the dental practice for all your needs.

I was looking for a new dentist in the DC area when I switched insurance plans and found that Comprehensive Dental Care had good ratings online. I’ve been to see Dr. Kostrov 5 – 6 times now and he’s always very professional and explains every procedure before he starts doing anything. He also listens to every question and gives a thorough and well-​thought-​out answer (for example, I asked him for a referral to have my wisdom teeth taken out and he gave me the name of someone in DC that he personally knows and other patients have highly recommended). I also like that he can show patients large images of x-​rays on the computers in the exam rooms. As another reviewer said, the office is very modern and features state-​of-​the-​art equipment. Even more minor conveniences don’t go unnoticed: they offer you comfortable goggles to wear when they’re cleaning your teeth so you don’t have the bright light in your eyes, and if you have a longer procedure, they offer a portable music player so you can listen to whatever you like. Highly recommend Dr. Kostrov and this practice.

I was looking for a new dentist in the DC area when I came upon Dr. Kostrov office. I called the office and they got me in the next day. Dr. Kostrov was very patient, calm and understanding. He went over my medical history, had them X-​ray my teeth, and he explained the entire process before I had my teeth cleaned. Dr. Kostrov and his staff are very professional and do everything to ensure your comfort and really care about the quality of their work. I was really happy to see my teeth in 3D in which I never seen before. The office is very modern as with his state of the art dentist tools. I highly recommend anybody looking for a new dentist to check him out.

Nice dental practice. Up to date with the latest technologies and superior customer service in DC. The dentist was very professional and skilled. I normally do not like going to the dentist for any reason but this doctor and the overall experience made everything as smooth as possible, and it made it possible to not dread going for a cleaning or filling any more… I will be going back for my future dental needs.
