Reviews:

Dental Care and service provided by the Dr. Mischenko and her team, Emily, Chelsey and Rosemary are exceptional. That is not what would be expected after a visit for root canal procedure, but Dr. Mischenko’s skill and gentle approach left me simple impressed. Her staff was informed and professional while at the same time very cordial and simply warm and truly friendly, they went beyond and above to make me informed and welcomed. This is refreshing and in clear contrast one would experience going to most healthcare facilities.

I was unexpectedly accommodated, in the midst of their busy schedule when I had my tooth pain issue. I was so amazed by the experienced I had with Dr Mischenko and her staff, not to mention the amazing equipment she have in doing on my root canal. She had squeezed me in between their full schedule when she heard I was going on an out of the country Pilgrimage. The staff are friendly making feel at home and Dr Mischenko was so tedious in her work. After the treatment she follows up herself to make sure I am doing ok and that is a five star treatment. Thank you so much Dr. Mischenko and more power to you and your staff and I am forever grateful and thankful.

I had a previous root canal that was troubling me and I went there for CT scan and a second opinion. My experience was truly exceptional - from the warmth of the front desk to the doctors of the practice. Dr. Mischenko is amazing. She understands the anxiety associated with treatment and is gentle yet comprehensive in her assessment. This is truly a top notch practice.

I recently saw Dr. Mischenko for a consultation on a suspected cracked tooth that is located under a bridge of 37 years.  I had previously seen several dentists and another endodontist for this problem, but none of them explained to me what was going on except for Dr. Mischenko. She is a very intelligent, knowledgeable, and insightful endodontist as well as down to earth and truly concerned with giving her patients the best treatment to resolve their issues. Her equipment is the most modern technology available and surpasses the other offices I visited that claimed they had state-of-the-art equipment. She patiently explained in great detail each possible outcome of my situation, so that I could make the best decision on how to proceed. Her staff is friendly and went out of their way to assist me in completing my insurance paperwork. I highly recommend Dr. Mischenko if you are looking for a top-quality endodontist.

Dr. Mischenko was such an incredible help to me by explaining very clearly my options and treatment. She was very informative, very professional, friendly, and genuinely dedicated to providing the best possible dental care. Her staff is very helpful, clearly committed, and dedicated to their patient care values. 

I am happy to come to their office because I am always well-treated and I am confident any dental problem I might have will be taken care of by Dr. Mischenko. I am extremely happy that I found their practice and look forward to a great and long relationship!

Hands down the best root canal experience I’ve ever had! To start- Bethesda Chevy Chase Root canal specialists worked me in for an appointment the same day I called. I’m a big scaredy cat when it comes to dental work and usually require sedation but I was in so much pain from my abscessed tooth I decided to go ahead and have it worked on during my initial consultation. Dr. Mischenko and her team are INCREDIBLE! They talked me through every step of the process and made me feel so at ease the entire time. You can tell Dr. Mischenko genuinely cares about providing her patients with a pleasant experience. She makes sure everything in her power is done so that you are comfortable during and after your procedure. The Office staff is also very accommodating. If you are in need of an Endodontic in the Bethesda/Chevy Chase- DC area, I highly recommend Dr. Mischenko!

Let me preface this review by disclosing that I am a dentist. As a general dentist,  I’ve been referring patients to Dr. Mischenko for the past 5 years. Her work is excellent and the patient always has great feedback. So when I figured out that I needed a root canal (yes, even dentists have dental problems),  Dr. Mischenko was the first person I called. I was very impressed with the care I received today. The evaluation was very thorough and included a 3-D x-ray which Dr. Mischenko has on-site. The injection was painless and the anesthesia was profound. The entire procedure went smoothly and quickly. I was even able to doze off for a bit.
