This will be our very first yelp review. We came to Dr. Alan Singer because my 8 year old daughter has to have 3 baby molars removed because after consultations with two dentists (one general and one pediatric), they saw two abscesses under her molars in her gum on each side of her mouth and we needed to schedule something very quickly because the pediatric dentist thought it was urgent since abscesses could mean a lot of things... As a mom I was really worried cause I wasn't sure how experienced Dr. Singer is since I didn't seem to be able to find a whole lot of reviews about him, but we decided to go for it since we were not able to find anybody else in our area with such a short notice. And that is why I am writing this. Dr. Singer was very knowledgeable, thorough and most important of all he was very skilled and his service was really quick.. we ended up having to get all those 3 baby molars removed.. which was the first time I ever had to deal with this kind of stressful procedure for a young child. There was laughing gas and blood and sutures involved and of course I was very worried and nervous. Dr. Singer and her assistant took the time to explain everything to me and my child. Everything they used was very professionally clean (I know because I manage a research lab and I am very picky about how things are supposed to be when it comes to medical equipment etc. The whole experience went way beyond that though, the office visit was very pleasant, Dr. Singer managed to finish all 3 extractions within a very short period of time, while he also still manage to talk to both my child and myself (I was very nervous) and made sure we were doing well. He made sure he constantly checks whether the amount of nitrous oxide was right for my child. He made sure she was doing well and that she had enough but yet not too much numbing agent that he injected in her mouth. He also made sure that I was doing ok observing the procedure and he kept reassuring me that my daughter was doing great and he was right that the procedure did go very well and my 8 year old was ready to go and had no complaints...After that they made sure they took the time to explain post-op care and they took the time to observe my daughter after the procedure to make sure she was ready for discharge...
I can't write enough about this positive experience. Just as I was writing this, my phone rang and it was Dr. Singer calling us to make sure my daughter is still doing great after we went home. He gave us his cell number just in case we have questions and he reassured us that it's ok to call him anytime if we have any questions. This experience turned out to be above and beyond my original expectations. Like I said I have no idea why there aren't more reviews about this practice though I know sometimes the lack of amount of reviews doesn't really mean anything. I am Soooooo glad we gave this practice a try. They were also good at filing insurance on our behalf and their front desk staff were friendly and they managed to squeeze us into a very tight schedule they already have. I highly recommend this dentist/oral surgeon, we look forward to going back for a follow up next Friday. read more
