My recent appointment at Washington Center for Dentistry with the periodontal team of Dr. Abron and surgical assistant Sheena was an exceptional experience. From the moment I arrived, they helped calm my fears and ease my anxiety—not only with nitrous oxide, but with their gentle humor, genuine compassion, and impressive chair-side manner. I am very grateful to Dr. Abron and Sheena for the excellent care they provided and would highly recommend Washington Center for Dentistry to anyone seeking a dental team that combines expertise and genuine compassion. Thanks again for an exceptional experience!

I have always had a great experience every time I go for appointments at Washington Center for Dentistry. The staff is very welcoming and accommodating, Dr. Katsaros is always engaging and explains any issues / concerns clearly and Annie (my hygienist) is the best - always clear bout what’s she’s about to do and my comfort. Just finished up Invisalign to correct my bite, which took a long time but worked out well! Highly recommend this practice!

Dr. Katsaros, and the rest of the dental team at Washington Center for Dentistry are all excellent. The front desk staff is friendly and helpful. My hygeniest is kind and efficient. I can't say enough in favor of Dr. Katsaros. He is energetic, encouraging, and practical. I've had major work done there and it was not always fun, but he explained everything and did excellent work.

I’ve been a patient at Washington Center for Dentistry since 1990 — first under the extraordinary care of Dr. Deutsch until his retirement, and now with the equally expert Dr. Katsaros. Across the many procedures I’ve had over the years — from implants to laser treatments — the doctors and staff have been a godsend. One thing I’ve especially appreciated is how consistently they’ve kept me pain-free, which has always been a tremendous relief whenever I arrived feeling anxious about treatment. Dr. Katsaros is unfailingly positive, energetic, and deeply reassuring. He communicates a genuine joy in his work, and that immediately puts patients at ease. He’s also been remarkably effective at finding creative solutions to several longstanding dental problems I’ve faced over the years, and every one of those solutions has worked. The Hygiene Team and Dental Assistants are wonderful as well. Special shout-outs to Annie and Maria for their exceptional care, kindness, and professionalism. I truly can’t recommend this practice highly enough.

I had an excellent experience at Washington Center for Dentistry. The entire staff was professional, kind, and very easy to work with from start to finish. They were transparent about pricing, explained everything clearly, and made me feel very comfortable throughout the appointment. The office itself is beautiful and calming, and I’m very glad I chose them for my dental care. Highly recommend. They go above and beyond.
