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.

Good surgical experience, but no insurance coverag
The insurer refuses to pay for his bills, stating that he is not registrered, nor do they have his license. This was different information than was provided during my visit where I was specifically told that his services were covered as a provider. Now I have to wait for months to possibly get reimbursed.

immediately at the front desk the staff is welcoming and makes you comfortable. The dental assistance were knowledgeable and reassuring. Dr. Egolum was excellent in his explanation to execution. The staff at this Silver Spring office epitomizes how a professional office should operate. Having a dental issue and procedure is a scary proposition . The staff here relieved the tension and my fear of dentistry.

I had some severely impacted wisdom teeth that were causing headaches and some crowding . My dentist referred me to MOSA and my experience was great. Dr. Egolum explained what would typically be a complicated situation in an easy-to-understand way, and was extremely patient with me as I asked my many questions. For many of us, surgery is scary and brings tons of anxiety. I walked into my procedure feeling confident that I was in good hands and a week later I'm recovering very well!
