I've been coming here since it was Frieder Dental and the transition since then has been seamless. There have been nice improvements to the waiting area and the office in general, too. For those who dont like TVs playing news in waiting areas, this place doesnt do that. I have a long history of dental care and I've spent many hours in a dentist chair since childhood, but I'm no longer apprehensive about coming for my visits since I've been coming here. I definitely recommend this practice if you are looking for a family run dentistry that knows what they're doing, and that cultivates a nice atmosphere.

I've been coming to Dr. Frieder for more than 10 years now. It started when I had a tooth fall…read moreapart in my hand, and I needed to find a dentist in a hurry. Since that time, he's helped restore almost every tooth I have. With at least 1 crown and 2 root canals, plus a dozen or more fillings. His work has always been flawless - and entirely pain free! So good, in fact, that my entire family are patients here. About the only service he couldn't provide for us was surgical extraction of my daughter's wisdom teeth. Otherwise, we've always been happy to come here, and are always comfortable in the chair with him.

I am beyond amazed at the positive experience I just had this morning. If you need a dental implant and are afraid of the process, a dental tooth extraction, don't be! I was until this morning. The novocaine injections painless at the skilled hands of Dr. Synder! The tooth extraction, in my case, was removed before I even knew it...within a minute or so, for me, this was nothing short of, MIRACULOUS! Forget the adage, 'no pain no gain'! At F.P.A. for me, it's been "NO PAIN, JUST GREAT PERIODONTAL GAIN!" Thank you so very much for the positive and blessed experience at your office Dr. Synder, assistant, and staff! I am still on my journey at F.P.A. however after today I have a deeper understanding from this mornings experience at how brilliantly skilled, and yet how compassionate and understanding Dr. Synder is. Thank you! There are not enough stars again to provide a proper rating with my experiences at F.P.A with Dr. Synder. Previously: At Frederick Periodontal Associates, I have had the BEST experienced ever for dental and periodontal consultation and care! The office staff is friendly, helpful and exceptionally competent and 'compassionate'! I was treated as if I was a member of thier family, or a close friend. I felt that I actually matter, and was not a number or a dollar sign! I called myself in as an emergency and though I had never been to this practice prior, the practice stayed open to make sure I was seen by the doctor. I also wasn't billed as an emergency patient, that is the definition in action of, The Good Samaritan! Dental, endodontic and periodontal procedures can be quite intimating and downright fearful for many people, myself being one of these people. Upon meeting Dr. Snyder I could feel myself start to relax, which I didn't think I could as I was told by a dentist that I had very real and serious concerns that involves, dental and endodontics. All the procedures I was told I needed performed, NOW, leaving me feeling overwhelmed, the shock hadn't even wore off yet. Having an abscess my check had swelled, I had had a low grade fever and had chills previously as a result of the infection and was concerned for my health. Upon meeting Dr. Snyder, his manner and approach had a positive effect melting away my fears, I was able to start relaxing and could breathe again and felt hopeful! I found out too that I did not need everything performed as I had been previously told I did, and there was NO pressure. Dr. Snyder wrote out a prescription for me too, to address the infection. I am now feeling like me again, healthy and not going to die of sepsis. Upon my next appointment, I had a Maintenance cleaning. The dental hygienist Star was kind, capable and reassuring to me regarding my fear of dental work. I also had the best dental cleaning at F.P.A. I was amazed at how beautiful my teeth looked and felt. This has been the first day that I can honestly say I feel no longer overwhelmed. There are not enough stars that honestly reflect the care they provide. Dr. Snyder, his wife Kathy (who is the practice manager and the brilliant designer of F.P.A's state of the arts practice,) and thier team are the most positive, caring, knowledgeable, kind and gentle health care providers I have ever encountered! PS For those who have experienced L-O-N-G wait time- none so far! Image that! I am still on my journey with periodontal care at F.P.A, and am feeling both blessed & confident that I shall have the best care available

The end result was virtually no pain or discomfort after the procedure with Dr. Snyder following up that evening to assure that all was well. I can't recommend Dr. Snyder and his team highly enough!

The only good thing about it is the nice office. I was a client for years and had only missed one appointment, for which I paid a hefty $200-something fee. I had a work emergency and when I called to cancel the day of the appt (life happens), they transferred me to the office manager to rudely tell me that they couldn't have me as a client anymore. Claimed I had too many missed appointments, which was not true. I asked for her to tell me the days I had missed and she condescendingly told me it was irrelevant because I was no longer a client. Horrible customer service. Do yourself a favor and find somewhere else, there are better offices out there that have kind and compassionate staff, better availability and prices and offer true care for their patients. And no, as they would like to make you think, I'm not associated to any reviewer. My last name changed since I was a patient.

She needed two people on staff to help her replace the filling (on a molar in the back). She left my tooth not filed down properly so my bite has to be corrected by a new dentist I need to find now. I typically don't leave bad reviews but this practice is incompetent. The back office doesn't manage accounting well and they don't return calls. I suggest you avoid this practice completely. If not, maybe this review will result in them getting things in better operational order.

The other staff member explains what's happening and where we need to go. Saw actual dentist who said nothing to us maybe 30 seconds. We scheduled with a second dentist of their choosing for the root canal. Get to the appointment everyone is nice they take us right back, and the dentist looks in my daughter's mouth and ask if the last dentist thoroughly examined her because this is not a root canal and sent us home. We had a crown appointment already set up they said to keep the appointment they will figure out what happened. My daughter explained to them this is all making her nervous that things keep changing no one seems to know whats going on. They reassured her and asked her to keep appointment. Got a call later to confirm our 8am appointment. Not 12 hours after that we get a message our appointment is now moved to 2pm. So, we said never mind we are going to cancel. We wanted to think about this and maybe get another opinion. Today my daughter got a call from this office and they tried to blame her and myself for the messed-up appointments. Told her my phone number was being removed from her file. Talked down to her and over her then dismissed her. HOW RUDE!!!! We were actually thinking of going back to give them a chance to correct this situation and how they left us feeling. Todays phone call fixed that. How can you treat people like that, we were new patients and this is the first impression you want to make.

No, they unilaterally cancelled it for their convenience. And we wonder why healthcare is so poor in this country when doctor's offices don't value the patrons or honor their commitments. As human beings, realize not everyone has the flexibility or bandwidth in their jobs to appease your reminders. The front desk was rude, unempathetic and made it clear that my time was expendable. The dentist and owner has always been nice to me so some stars but other staff leave something to be desired... especially the front desk. To the admin: you are interacting with people whom have responsibilities that you'll never know or understand so I'll tell you the advice I got when I was just 15 years old: treat everyone with respect.
