Had a root canal/cap procedure done in November 2017. Paid 900+ as part as my payment. The receptionist assured me my dental insurance covered half of the expenses. I explained my financial situation that I could not pay if insurance did not cover half. The receptionist reassured me it was covered even though she was not familiar with my issuance company since they just started excepting Delta Dental! 6 months later I received a bill for 657 dollars. They need to take some responsibility in messing up and reduce the bill. Called and left message still have not received any calls back.

I have known Dr. Kamodia for many years and I believe that he is unique in the service and care he provides. I have noticed that Dr. Kamodia's main priority is to make sure that his patients are comfortable and receive the best dental care. I like his approach of helping his patients remove anxiety associated with being in the Dentist office by providing a good range of soothing music for patients to listen to, with the headset provided by his office.

Dr. Kamodia's assistants are always cheerful and approachable when you have questions and they are committed to giving excellent advice service. They actually know his patients by name.

My recent visit to Dr. Kamodia's office to have work done on my teeth was very rewarding. I am very grateful to him for his skillful approach to my case.
Finally, thanks to Dr. Kamodia, I now have a smile that I am very proud of.

I went in for major work (2011).. Had to get it all redone in 2014..the reason people get in so quick to see Kamodia is because he very overpriced and incompetent. ..and the local people over the years have figure this out so hence he has a lot of openings for new victims. I took 12k and pretty much through it down the drain. I also witness a lot of turn over within the office ..I think sanjays wife has a lot to do with that..it's all about the money with this dentist ...trust me. If I thought I could sue this guy and win I would..but it's very hard to sue and win against a dentist..so it's a done deal and I got sucker.

Dr. Kamodia is the greatest! I have the most beautiful smile now and am so happy about how he took his time, made sure I was OK through everything and also made sure my new smile was exactly how I wanted it to look. I had immediate appointments, not like most dentists who make you wait for weeks at a time. I couldn't believe how fast he gave me the appointments. Kudos to the staff too. Lovely bunch of ladies and very friendly and caring.

I cannot imagine what that woman was writing about. I think she was talking about another dentist and got here by mistake. Each and every person at Gentle Dental Care is concerned with your comfort, happiness and lack of pain. I now have the most beautiful smile I ever had. He took his time and made sure I was content every step of the way.

I've found the best DDS! And his practice is right here in Vestal. I would recomend him and his excellent work to anyone. Dr.Sanjay Kamodia strives for perfection. I am three months into a complete restoration. An extreme make-over for me. His planning, painstaking skill and use of superior materials have convinced me, this is the best. And his staff, they are in on it too. I'm slow to change but one review helped me decide to make that change. After ten years of quick fixes, repeat repairs including the loss of 3 teeth, I found this review on Google, to be helpful. r highly recommended Gentle Dental Care

I was always nervous when its time for dental check-up, my blood pressure goes sky high when I'm in the dentist chair. So when i found Gentle Dental Care and met Dr. Kamodia, that was my best experience ever. When he told me that i have cavity and need filling i wasn't happy. He told me not to worry, and to give him a chance. At the time of appointment, he was very patient and understanding, he took time to explain every step with Novocaine and drilling. During apt. time he would ask if I'm OK, do i feel anything. Just knowing that he cares if I'm in pain or not means a lot to me.I could feel that his interest is not just to make quick money BUT to make sure that i was comfortable and to change my experience so I'm not afraid anymore. Who knew that having filling can be pain free. I was amazed.Everybody at the office were very professional and willing to help. I would highly recommend Dr. Kamodia to everyone.

Dr.Kamodiais the best dentist I have had experience with. He gives his best concern when it comes to patient comfort and pain free. I have experienced nothing but best from the Gentle Dental care office, as much from the doctor himself and that much from the every employee in that office. I am proud to say he takes care of my teeth. I enjoy listening to the music they provide when he is doing any kind of drilling. I had dentist before him and I was always rushed out of the office, but with Dr.Kamodia I do not get that feeling and I can ask as many questions I want and get the answers for it. I am also proud to write this and I would certainly recommend Dr. Kamodia's office to anyone who is afraid of going to the dentist. No wonder he has been voted the best dentist many times over by the readers choice.

He and his staff take the time to help me overcome my fears. I am starting to have alot of work done after a long break in between dental visits. Plus unlike the last place I went to you don't have to wait two or three months for an appointment. He's a wonderful dentist with skilled people working for him. I would highly reccomend him. Gentle Dental is an accurate name for his establishment. I highly recommend Dr. Kamodia.

Emergency Appt. & Exemplary Service My wife fell directly on her front teeth during one of our many ice storms last year. It happened in the P.M. and she suffered with pain all night, barely sleeping due to fractured/broken/loose teeth. She called our Dentist office the following morning and was told they couldn't see her until 1:30pm!!! Keep in mind this is a woman who HAD a beautiful smile not longer than 24 hours ago, and now would have to wait approximately 5 mores hours to even get in to see our normal dentist. As her husband, I was outraged and called "Gentle Dental Care" on the Vestal Parkway due to their close proximity to our home. From the moment Marcia, the receptionist told me to "Bring your wife in immediately" my wife was treated in a professional, caring, and compassionate manner. Dr. Kamodia spent over 3 hours on my wife's teeth, bypassing his lunch and juggling his other patients around. Excellent dentistry provided. Thank you!

the best

i have been to four other dentists in my lifetime and i don't think they are any different than others who provide the exceptional service that they do. there are some cheaper places but as they say, you get what you pay for! with my old dentist who used to charge a little less, my fillings used to come out or i ended up geting root canals on those teeth that were filled improporly--so just because it's cheaper, it doesn't mean it's good as there are a lot of different materials they use to fill the teeth.

since i have been going to dr. kamodia, i have never had any problems as he does his work right and he uses the best of the material that are available from the beginning.

i never have to wait and i can get appointments much easily. and their office is completely upto date with new technology so i feel good about that too.

i highly recommend it.

When his 2nd shot of Novocain didn't kill the pain while drilling (I felt a jolt of pain in my jaw!), he about complained about giving me another injection.. but gave it to me.. He knew I had MS and that the nerves in my mouth were weird.. didn't matter.. then when he started pulling two large molars it REALLY hurt my jaw BADLY and I asked for yet more Novocain, and he grudgingly gave it to me spilling it all over my mouth as he was injecting it.. obviously very upset at me.. I finally was properly numbed out though (this is why I HATE going to dentists!!!! MS makes everything weird with pain in my mouth) . When done he said, that was it, I made him to upset with my complaining about the pain and expressions of whatever throughout the procedure. He wouldn't finish treating me! I said, Oh yes you will.. here he's ripped out 6 teeth from my mouth (4 in front! 2 in back) and not made a plate for me, and he's telling me he will not complete the work. Well, I said fine.. got a refund for th
