I started going to Dr Hardeek’s office in avenel from year 2022 and moved my kids also to his practice in 2023, worst decision I took in having chosen his office for dental work for my family. In 2023 he mentioned I have to get both my caps on 2 teeth replaced as they are not good anymore now, even though my appointment was with dr hardeek, some lady doctor i dont remember name did the work for me and did the worst work and spend more than an hour just putting the new caps back and hurt and scratched my whole lip until it bleeded with some kind of tool which had sharp blades to polishing the cap and she was all over my body with her whole weight on just trying to fix the cap. One of the cap was not put properly so I went back again and doctor had to replace it for free as it was their mistake although he kept in sating it was fine. On top of that doctor knew that one of my teeth is fractured for which he was replacing the cap, still rather than extracting that out he decided to cap it again. And now 4 months later I am still struggling with pain around that area and now I have seen two different doctors and both said the tooth should have been removed if doctor knew.
Also one of their front desk lady is so rude, her duty is to just keep cancelling the appointments without even asking the patients. With this way one day doctor will be left with no appointments, lol. She herself is dooming the doctors business along with negligence from doctors side. Also they will never give you-all your x rays.

Response to doc question: thanks for checking in, I am still analyzing the pain, I do get pain sometimes still but not as severe as before. I will let you know soon. Thanks

Edit to review on 03/14/2024: Dr. Hardeek Patel has contacted me personally to understand the issue and asked to come for an office visit, and ran a scan and said there is no fracture as of now. I also got a second call from Neha(front desk) to aak how I am feeling and gave me another visit to look at the issue. Thanks doctor and Neha for looking into it. But I would still suggest that you have your other front desk people know how to talk to patients and about the cancelling of appointments as well, that is not nice.

My husband came here before I did and he loved Dr Patel. I came to see him for an emergency appointment. Let me say Dr Patel was so kind and understanding to my needs. I have SEVERE dental anxiety to the point where I would cancel appointments so I didn’t have to go. He didn’t just brush me off or ignore my feelings. He made me feel so comfortable and understood my anxiety. We made a plan for all the work to be done broken up into separate appointments and found a treatment plan that would work and help me with my anxiety. Already did two appointments with NJ Smiles and I am happy to say I love it here(coming from someone who is terrified of the dentist) and that’s not easy for me to say. His staff is lovely and so sweet! Thank you again!

I have been going to Dr. Patel for almost 10 years now. He is not like other dentists who will try to make money from you any way they can. He provides real time actionable insights and suggestions that are most clinically relevant to you. I have been doing invisaligns with this provider as well and he has been very responsive to my feedback on them throughout the entire process. Him and his team are all great and very courteous. His front end staff make booking appointments easy and have always been quick and responsive to help me with my questions about insurance and coverage. Great location with great parking as well!
