A. We take all PPO insurance plans and are in-network with many. Please look here and if you don’t see your plan, contact The QPD for more info on your specific insurance plan.
A. We are sorry that reliable dental care has been unavailable for you. We want to change that for you and get you on a path of great oral care. Consider becoming a member of The QPDentites Membership Club and you will soon see that a healthy mouth and maintaining regular dental checkups are achievable for you -- affordably so, and yes, with all the bells and whistles to boot.
A. No offense taken, we hear you (loudly!). Dr. Salehezadeh is not exactly an enthusiastic dental patient herself and admits to her lifelong antidentite status. This is exactly why she built The QPD and thought through every aspect of the dental visit that normally irked her and made her nervous, ensuring more comforting and pleasing options for all the other antidentites out there. She then enlisted warm, genial, and highly skilled talents to serve The QPD patients alongside her… including Dr. Wang, another people-loving dentist. Look here and here for some of the comforting details and the friendly faces awaiting you for your visit at The QPD.
A. We fully understand your concerns; it may make you feel better that we had all the same concerns (and dreads, TBH) when we first returned to our daily jobs as dental professionals. We get it. And we want you to know that visiting The QPD may be the safest option you can have.
The QPD is a fairly new office, with its inception pre-pandemic and its buildout finalization in mid-2020 of the pandemic. Months of research allowed Dr. Salehezadeh to reinforce and strengthen all of The QPD’s everyday infection control processes, plus instate numerous layers of clinically proven COVID safety measures. And while some of the COVID safeguards utilized until 2022 are no longer in use, we still employ a multi-barrier infection control protocol to minimize the risk while we care for our patients' dental needs. You can read more details here.
A. We have tried to make it as easy as can be: you can call us (718-YES-2-QPD), email us, or book through our convenient online portal... See you soon!
A.
1. Your unexpired driver’s license or identification card
2. Copy of your dental insurance card: if you don’t have a card, a printout of the web-provided information will suffice
3. List of your medicines
4. If you are under the care of a physician for a heart condition, require antibiotics for your dental cleanings, or have been recently treated surgically in the last 12 months: a medical clearance by your physician may be requested prior to any treatment. (If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, we may require the same for all treatments other than a dental cleaning.)
A. The short: yes, we absolutely need a set of radiographs, unless you have WITH YOU (or have emailed us IN ADVANCE) a full-set of diagnostic x-ray from the last 12 months. In all other cases (e.g., if the x-rays are older than 12 months, or are undiagnostic, or are incomplete, or are not received by us by the time of your visit), we will need to take new radiographs. We’re quite confident that your dislike for having x-rays tahen will no longer be an issue after your experience at The QPD. (For the long version: read here.)
A. For your initial visit with us, the cancellation policy is simple: please cancel and/or reschedule your appointment with at least 24 hours notice -- unless your appointment is scheduled for a Monday, in which case you must cancel by 12 PM on the preceding Friday. Any notice less than that will be subject to a cancellation fee and/or a requirement for a deposit to book with us again... for your subsequent visits, our cancellation policy is included in the New Patient Forms that you will fill out and sign; we will also inform + remind you of our policies at your future visits.
A. Yay, we’re so happy you feel that way! We will strive to always keep you feeling this way and are honored to be complimented for the service we love providing. With that said, we would love to have more patients like you, hence the implementation of our Refer a Friend program. Go ahead, refer a friend, and we promise to impress them and make you look good too! Thanks for being an influencer, and even more so, thank you for choosing us to rave about. :)
A. If you’ve looked through this entire site and still haven’t found your answers, we can’t wait to hear your questions! Please call (718-YES-2-QPD) or email us and we will do our best to answer you!
