He had to work with broken equipment and after 30 or so minutes fixed it with plastic, tape, ​and a rubber band. His work during an implant proved he lacks the necessary skill set to pwrform the implant without causing additional pain. I twice complained to Dr Paes about the bullying and lack of professional skill by Dr Park, but he did nothing. Also, Dr Park wanted to do a full set of xrays even though I submitted a full set that had been done less than 6 weeks earlier. Stay clear of Dr Park. If I could give less than 1 star, I would

What sets this practice apart from others is its ability to meet the individual needs of its patients. To mention just a few; Anxious? Choice of music to help you relax, and aromatherapy if requested. Elderly? You will be treated with the utmost respect and consideration. If need be, you can take a mini break to stretch or use the restroom. From the moment you are in the chair, Dr. Cruz and his assistant, Terry, will put you at ease and do their best to meet your every need. Dr. Cruz will not have you leave until you are pleased with the work he has done, and he is as well. He sets himself to a high standard and treats his patients as he would want his own family to be treated. I wish I could give this practice more than 5 stars because they truly deserve it.

She welcomed me as if we were old friends and let me know that I would be seeing Loretta first. Loretta is easily one of the nicest people that I have met in a long time. She explained everything that she would be doing, form x-rays to cleaning, and performed all of this PAIN-FREE! I then saw Dr. Lina - another wonderful lady. She explained how she would address the issues that I had with a couple of my teeth, and just like that, I was finished, and Nikki was scheduling my next appointment.

They have two locations: one in Highland NY and one in Poughkeepsie, NY. Both offices have similar hours, they are closed on Wednesdays and close around 2 PM on Fridays. Thursday is the day that they stay open late, until 7 PM. The staff is very friendly and personable. The dentists are very accommodating. For example, in order to get numb, I need a higher dosage than most people. At first Dr. Lina did not believe me, but she quickly understood and gave me an appropriate dosage. They also will tell you ahead of time if what you require is outside their scope, and they can give you referrals when possible. They listen to your concerns and double check everything to make sure your teeth and gum are healthy. They also send reminders for cleanings and check-ups in the mail and via text. Overall, I am very impressed with this office and would recommend them.

This is just an update of my review for Monroe Dentist Office. So I grew up in Monroe, and as a kid…read moreI went to the dentist every 6 months for a cleaning, with Tara, who was pleasant, and knew how to take care of kids. Even got a cavity filled with Dr. Crohn with proper pain relief of the numbing cream. So at least 4 stars with that. Years later, I got a cavity filled by Dr. Allison Douglas. For pain relief, she only offered the novacaine shot, in which i refused. But it wasn't until I was crying that she stopped and offered the numbing cream. After she applied the numbing cream it was better. However after the appointment, I went home- tooth that got filled hurt for like a week. Also I wasn't given any information on side effects or directions. to boot I also had steak for dinner, and I normally love steak but the tooth hurt and made it hard to eat for a few days. Luckily it subsided after a week. Note 3 stars for that experience Fast forward a few years after that, It was my annual cleaning, Tara asked me about my wisdom teeth, and forgetting, I told her the wrong information, which were that my bottom ones were intact. How easy it is for a doctor to check records, especially if they don't remember or anything? Part of that appointment was xrays, which were taken. Now during the xray process, Tara was understanding on how the positions can be not natural, and tried to make me as comfortable as possible. Which helps. Even while doing the cleaning, she stopped for a second if I was a little sensitive or if my gums bled. Now, when the dentist Alison Douglas came in to check the xrays, she told me, oh you may need more fillings. Now I didn't say anything at that time, but If my last filling with her was a bad experience, and as long as I don't have teeth pain myself- I don't really want any dentist work done. Alison also failed to explain to me where on the xray, she sees I have cavities. She kept saying "Oh you know, You know" Obviously If I Am asking then No, I don't know. I am also a firm believer in that healthcare is both the doctor and the patient agreeing to a treatment plan that works for the patient. After that, It was the last straw and I wouldn't recommend this office at all. Maybe for the other dentist Dr. Crohn and My Hygentist Tara. But other than that- No because some need pain relief. I also no longer live in the area. Hope this office realizes that bad experiences can cause Trauma, and sometimes that can be no good for health in the long run, and I say that because I haven't been to the dentist since, and this was more than a few years ago now.

Cleaning is always comforting and she stopped if i was bleeding or feeling senstive. Gotta admit that removing tartar has been a little uncomfortable to me because it is like scraping the tooth, and I brush my teeth twice a day with no issues. But the way tara does it is very gentle. I have 3 stars because last visit, which was years ago, but the other dentist alison i believe filled my cavity without novacaine, and it wasn't until i was crying that she applied the numbing cream on my tooth, which i had to suggest. Didn't explain any side effects either, as for a week, i couldn't chew that much and my tooth that got filled hurt. Didn't even tell me to take advil or offer medicine for pain relief. After i got the cavity filled, at my last appointment, i did xrays, and they found a spot where they may have to fill a cavity, but it was a small one. They didn't even show me that xray, or ask if my tooth bothers me. For me, If a tooth bothers me then i am more likely to get it filled, not just because "I have to.." Consider what the patient wants as well as what may be needed on the doctor's end. I don't recommend coming here because of the dentists. The hygentists are fine, but the dentists seem to have some kind of agenda and not care what the patient wants. More so because of my truama, i may not ever go to a dentist again. If i find getting a cavity filled hurts, i need to be sedated or at least with a strong numbing agent.

In fact, it's kind of a not-so-awful experience. Now, that's a pretty good review for a dental office! Haha but here goes my real review... I came in for an emergency check up due to some pain, and the receptionist, hygienist, and doctor were all amazing. They were patient and attentive, and explained everything to me in detail. I immediately got on the 2 month long list to book my routine cleaning with them. In my defense, covid has been hard. I'd avoided going outside at all, much less any medical office, for the entirety of 2020. I was long overdue for a cleaning. Denise Denise Denise!!! The hygienist was nothing short of magical. She was friendly, calm, and amazing at communicating. She talked me through every single step she took and kept me comfortable throughout the process. I have to say, she was really 80% of why I'll be coming back. Dr Mansperger is great too - he made me feel very comfortable and was willing to answer all my dumb questions. He didn't make me feel rushed or silly, and gave very helpful tips on how to improve my dental care at home. I feel like everyone who works here has amazing chair side manner - I would highly recommend them. They are fantastic with nervous patients like myself.
