Rudolph Barry S, DDS

Excellent in EVERY way! Dr. Rudolph and his staff do everything right. From the most important… excellent denistry, I trust them and they do the work right with attention to detail.
They are also the most kind medical office! They care about our teeth :), and the person. They also are excellent at keeping things painfree as possible.
Everyone from the dentists… Dr Rudolph, Dr Paino (who my kids see), Michelle, Jan, and the hygenists, the billing and scheduling… I recommend them consistently to all of my friends.

My mom, 89 years old, had dental work done closer to home to make it easier for her appointments and travel time. She required a lower denture, which we now understand, are very difficult to fit, unless implants are used to secure the denture. She had to have her remaining teeth pulled and a denture mold made before the extractions. Because of her age and because she is too frugal sometimes, she opted not to go with the implants. BIG MISTAKE! She returned to the local dentist for months, with no improvement, in fact it just kept getting worse and more painful. She was unable to use the denture because of the pain when wearing them. I asked her about getting a second opinion and took her to see Dr. Rudolph. He examined her situation and gave her his opinion that implants would most likely be her only option, if she wanted comfort, pain relief and the ability to chew. He advised that he would do his best to use the denture she had made, if at all possible. Well, he did, saving her thousands of dollars. She was so impressed with his professionalism, knowledge and just plain kindness and respect that she opted to get two implants… not an easy decision for her. Now that the process is complete, my mom has never been happier. In fact, she says that her lower dentures feel better than her upper dentures that she has had for years! She has no pain, is able to chew solid food with no problems and is glowing with satisfaction and gratitude for Dr. Rudolph and his staff for being so kind and professional. I highly recommend this practice. You won’t be disappointed.

Dr. Rudolph and his staff are wonderful! I have been his patient since the 1980’s and I now live in NY, but my family still make our semi-​annual trips from NY to Vienna to see him. He is a perfectionist whose work should be used as models for dental students. Over the years, my family have presented him with some rather challenging, real case studies which required ingenuity, and he has always found unique solutions. So if you have challenging dental issues, Dr. Rudolph is definitely the one you should see. Yes, he is that special!

My family and I have been going to Dr. Rudolph for over 30 years and I’ve recommended him to many, many friends. I’ve had a lot of dental work over the years, going back to childhood, and he’s clearly the best dentist I’ve ever been to – as Ray H. said, he’s a perfectionist, plus he’s very concerned that the patient be comfortable and not have any pain. The rest of the staff is excellent, as is Dr. Paino, who did a root canal for me a couple of years ago.
I’d give them ten stars if I could!

I totally agree with reviewer Ray H. I’m very happy with this practice and I’ve been going there for 15 years. They’re very caring and professional. They seem to like the latest gagets and procedures. Even though they’re not on my insurance network, they now submit the insurance claim FOR ME WHILE I’M STILL THERE and I just wait for the check. Yeah!

I’ve been going here for many years and probably the best dentist group ever! I mean ever! There’s a reason why they are considered DC’s top dentists by Washingtonian (
)
The staff is extremely friendly, they respond to you quickly via email or phone, and they really do know what they’re doing! The best part is that both Dr. Rudolph and Payno (had him for Invisalign) are perfectionists and will not let you leave until your work is done right! I’ve had a time where I just wanted to get in and out but they wouldn’t let me leave because they refused to cut corners. Basically, Dr. Rudolph had to cut a crown and realize underneath the crown wasn’t a typical situation. So, he worked and make sure every little detail was perfect… I’m very detailed oriented so I’m very happy with this.
I guarantee you that you won’t be disappointed. However, one caveat… they don’t take insurance, you can only reimburse and their cost is a little bit higher than other dentists. But then again, you won’t get poor quality work. I’d rather pay a decent price for good work than pay less for cheap work.
