Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr.Maliken in the process of performing a biopsy tore the tissue toward the front of my top teeth. Then on the follow up visit reported that the procedure was well done with no problems. Next day the patient returned with problems and is now told (ranting) that he will loose his from teeth without describing in anyway that it is because he tore the tissue at the front of the biopsy by making an angular miscalculation. The patient called later that night on the emergency line when he used a mirror and discovered the deep tear ( a V shape coming from the round biopsy ending at the base of the front teeth). Rockcliff effectively stopped communicating with me at this point. That included things that were promised like contacting a Pathologist to provide information about a common/similar case. Help getting an emergency consultation with an area Periodontist.

Great Experience
Excellent care. Dr Maliken and all of the staff that I interacted with were great. I had an unexpected impacted wisdom tooth so I was pretty nervous. On my initial visit, he explained everything I needed to know to me. On the day of the procedure there was not one surprise. He and his staff were very kind, respectful and very friendly. I highly recommend him!

Dr. Maliken is very professional, skilled and personable. Even though he is young he maintains an "Old School" attitude about how dentistry should be practiced: Patient oriented with friendly staff and atmosphere. We would recommend him and this office to anyone who wants the best in dental care.

If I could give zero stars I would. He gave one day notice to the clinic he was working at and they had to cancel my wisdom tooth removal with less than a weeks notice.
