I've been a patient of doctor Psaltis for 11 years now and I must say his work over the years has been impeccable. It all started for me with Invisalign, which doctor Psaltis supervised perfectly, resulting in an almost perfect alignment of my teeth, hence my beautiful smile... From there on, he has been a thorough and simply wonderful dentist, making me feel almost glad to visit him once a year for my annual check up. He is definitely a great dentist, one you should highly consider visiting. read more

Dr. Psaltis and Sonia are amazing. The office is beautiful and welcoming. The level of service is wonderful and caring. I highly recommend this office for your dental care! read more

Coming back after realizing how rude Psaltis is both to his assistants and to me. It doesn't feel good to be unemployed and looking for my X rays this week, and then being told to "never contact this office again" without explanation, but it does feel good to leave a 1 star rating on their Yelp page. All the weird details are a long story that I don't really need to type right now but might update later. Basically, a huge lack of communication and empathy, and having only one dentist and front desk employee shouldn't have that much in-fighting. read more

Doctor Psaltis is the best dentist I I've honestly ever been to. He always accommodates my schedule which can be extremely last minute and alwyas does a amazing job. I honestly wish all my doctors were as amazing as this doctor. Also he's quite the comedian will have you at ease while in the chair and and constantly checks on you to make sure your ok. I wish all doctors could take some lessons from doctor Psaltis. read more

An apple a day may drive the doctor away, but when you are stuck with a bad tooth, nothing appeases the pain better than the idea of compassion. But there's a reason why dental visits are to be avoided like a drill on plaque: Because dentists and compassion don't go together. George Psaltis, DMD, defies this stereotype. It is not his excellent qualifications that raise the bar on the dental experience, but rather one understated trait: his zodiac. Pisces people are known for their warmth and understanding. True to his Piscean nature, George Psaltis listens, commiserates, and makes you laugh until you forget your troubles--and once you have, he slowly and painlessly eases them away, with the aid of his dental expertise and easy handling of terrifying dental paraphernalia. Because words cannot describe the excellence of George Psaltis, I will attempt here to represent my own experience in pictures: _ _, _ _, ((@)) ((@)) (. .) .... PAIN: The only real motivation to ever visit a dentist in the first place. I couldn't take my beautiful eyes looking like the Internet symbol anymore, and so I got the guts and made the dreaded call. _ _, _ _, ((0)) ((0)) (. .) - - DOUBT: The pain decreased as I ran late to my appointment, and for a second, I considered running back in the opposite direction. But, it was a personal test, and my prideful determination to succeed wouldn't let me give up. That, and I had just bought these luscious Jacques Torres cookies that I really craved, so a functional set of teeth was a necessity. / \ [?] [?] (. .) ~ FEAR: I took a deep breath, and upon walking in and remembering the whiteness of the dental office walls that I had last visited years before, I gulped, and wondered if maybe the cookies were cold now and throwing them away wouldn't be such a big loss really. _* _, _ _, ((0))*((o)) (. .) ||I|I|I|I| O MEMORIES: But before I could make my escape, the dental assistant smiled sweetly at me and handed me a form to fill out. My knees buckled, and I fell on the seat and blindly filled out my information as I remembered my previous dental experiences--something resembling a bullet shot straight in the face. - - ((^))((^)) (. .) ~ RELIEF: Not just in seeing the smiling dentist's empathetic face but also in realizing that he held no gun or powerful drill as he extended his hand in greeting. Thanks to his kind demeanor and gentle use of tools and teeth--as well as the oh-so-fine invention of anesthetics--my third molar extraction was painlessly over within minutes. And thanks to George Psaltis himself, the cookies tasted just as good as the apple I bite into now as I sit here recollecting my experience. My only regret is that I didn't keep the tooth to throw over a roof later for good luck. But with a superb dentist like this, I need no luck--not when it comes to this fine pair or choppers, at least. read more

I had to completely revise my review from 5 stars to 1 star. I discovered he overcharged me $740. He tried to massively overbill me, by adding procedures that didn't happen. I tried to discuss it with him but didn't want to and instead would only let me discuss money matters with his office administrator. Only after talking with my insurance company and filing a complaint was I sure that he tried to rip me off. Before that, I had believed that his invoice was truthful and accurate. Either he knows he's trying to rip people off by inflating costs and committing insurance fraud -or- he is a moron (and I doubt it's the latter). I will admit, he was a good dentist in the sense that he got the job done. He removed my wisdom teeth, and he says he did a good job. I can't even trust that he did a good job. He and his staff stuff have not admitted he has overcharged me $740. I still have not received my refund. I will revise this if he sends me back my money and offers and explanation. read more

I recently had major dental work, cavities filled, crown built, replaced several porcelain veneers. The work with dazzling. Dr. Psaltis, and her staff, where pleasure to work with: charming, meticulous, awesome chair-side manner. He is hands-down the best dentist I've ever had,...and I've had many. highest possible recommendation. Outstanding service and beautiful work. Great friendly and highly professional stuff. read more

George Psaltis has been my dentist for nearly 10 years and my teeth have never been healthier. He is meticulous about every aspect of dental care from cleanings to crowns. The staff are friendly and helpful, always. When Dr. Psaltis is working, he is focused and serious - I think some reviewers are exaggerating about an 'angry tone.' When my mouth is open in a stressful position, there's no time for 'pretty please.' After any major work, the Dr. gave me his personal phone number to contact him if there were any problems. I have never felt as supported by a dentist as by George Psaltis. read more

I have been going to Dr Psaltis for more than 15 years now. He is an exceptional dentist and his stuff is friendly and very helpful. He takes the time to explain his approach and he is friendly & honest. I am not the best patient as a New Yorker I want everything done "yesterday" and to perfection, Dr. Psaltis meets all that and more! I trust him completely! read more

A lot of people I know have been going to this dentist for many years they have recommended me to go. I went and got three cleanings done everything was OK we could call it that. Then I have to start by doing a root canal I had to do it three times on the same tooth, she overcharging me because I called my insurance company and told them I wasn't happy with the dental work. Still till today, I'm trying to get my money back!! Wast part about it that he was making money off me and still taking money from my insurance. NOW THIS IS REALLY THE worst part is now I have to get an extraction on my tooth which was the tooth he first started working on three times. Avoid him at all costs she yells at everybody in the office and sometimes he might even take his anger out on you. And the worst part is he accidentally cut my gum while he was drilling me and told me don't worry about it it's OK and this happened All because he was yelling at the helper who was passing him tools. AVOID HIM!!!!!!!!! Also, I know he does lots of drugs because who else would be this crazy and act bipolar??? Then go to his house and come out with a smile as if nothing ever happened. He was scratching then blowing his nose. I was really scared. Please do not go to him! Never went back. Don't waste your time AND MONEY! read more

I needed a wisdom tooth extracted which had become compromised when it partially broke, and my previous dentist would not attempt it due to the level of difficulty involved. Thank goodness I was referred to Dr. Psaltis! Not only was he able to see me right away but he got the job done with superb skill and professionalism. I can easily recommend Dr. Psaltis to anyone looking a caring dentist in NYC, and his support staff is terrific, too. read more

The deal breaker for me was when I witnessed him berating/yelling at his assistant while cleaning my teeth. She came back in tears. NOT cool. read more

He is the worst dentist I've ever had the displeasure of seeing. I've been stewing over whether or not to write a review for over a month; but given that it was based on Yelp that I went to see him (I have received a lot of great advice from yelp), I decided I should do others the service of providing a review. To be fair to Yelp, the higher rated dentists in the area were all booked two months out or over the top expensive - I guess you get what you pay for, and buyer beware when it's cheap and available on short notice: 1) Yes, he was really rude/ harsh to his assistant. 2) He was late to see me though there wasn't any in the office (other patients) perhaps there was a reason, but he didn't offer one or an apology. 3) The x-rays were terrible - they used some strange loop brace (I've never seen this before). He kept insisting that my jaw had broken, because there was a strange halo effect on the x-ray (funny it was the exact same shape as the loop). I've never had my jaw broken - I think I'd know and I think my home town dentist would have noticed it. Hummm, maybe the line was caused by the loop brace thingy that he made me hold in my mouth. The conversation was just bizarre. 4) His cleaning was subpar - I've having it redone. 5) As he was checking my teeth and yelling out notes to his assistant (about which teeth needed what) he would twist around to talk to her and because it was comfortable to him, he would exert extra pressure on my gums, then let it off as he turned back, scrapped along my gum line and went to the next tooth - I'm not sure if I can explain this right, but basically the pain was caused by his lack of care not because it was a necessary part of the process. And yes, I did ask him to let up (and not push down when was turning around) ... twice. 6) He told me how the work my dentist has done was terrible and had caused a lot of trouble - again I've seen other dentist since my home town dentist did the work and no one said this before. 7) He ordered a lot of work to be done, I kept telling him that I didn't have insurance and would need to schedule it as I could pay for it, but he insisted that I come the next week and told the assistant to book the appointment. I requested that she call me with an estimate of the cost and we schedule then. She said she would call the next day... but I never heard from them again. Which is fine, because I walked out there feeling pretty put-off, none-the-less, it's bizarre that they didn't even call to review the costs and options. It's that part of the service I had paid for??? read more

My impression of Dr. Psaltis was that he was a nice guy but not a very nice dentist. A few years ago, he put a crown in my mouth which, after years of wanting to rip the thing out of my mouth, I finally had replaced this year by another dentist in the area. It was way too big (in other words it did not fit in my mouth), and the color was completely off which made it stand out in an ugly way whenever I smiled widely. In addition, the white outer layer started to peel off revealing a silvery substance so it looked like I had an untreated cavity in the crown. My new dentist is fabulous in every way; the new crown he put in my mouth to replace the piece o' crap that Dr. Psaltis put in is gorgeous. It fits right, it is the perfect size, and the color is gorgeous. In other words, it fits into my mouth perfectly and looks totally natural and beautiful--the way a crown should look and feel. Dr. Psaltis was definitely nice to me, but his work was terrible. There were a couple of other jobs I trusted him with, and they, too, did not go well at al. In fairness, I see that the "filtered" reviews contain many good ones (I don't know why Yelp takes the liberty of filtering and tossing so many legitimate reviews, and I think they should FIX their damn filter)-- so Dr. Psaltis apparently has pleased many of his patients. But I was certainly not one of them, and because his crown caused me a whole lot of frustration and annoyance until I could have it replaced, I feel justified in writing this review. read more

If there was a way to give Mr. Psaltis ZERO stars I would. He is one of the worst dentists that I have ever been to. To start, he is very rude to his assistant and kept yelling at her in a very angry tone while cleaning my teeth. At least do it in private when you are yelling at an employee. Additionally, he is professionally incompetent. I went to see him for an ordinary cleaning after noticing that my gums bled whenever I would brush my teeth. I mentioned this to him and he insisted that this was normal. While performing the cleaning, I also bled and he again said this was normal. I don't need an MD to tell me there is something wrong here, folks. So after dealing with my gums bleeding for a few more months, I decided to see another dentist. I was told that I had gum disease and that I needed to have a serious root planing and scaling done. I was told that whoever my last dentist was should have noticed this and that it would be borderline professional malpractice to not have done something. I mean, how does a dentist not know when a patient has gum disease when their gums are bleeding during a cleaning? I would tell anyone to stay away from this guy. He is not a professional and is lucky to still be in in business. STAY AWAY!!! read more

Dr. Psaltis has been my dentist for over ten years and always provides the TLC this normally nervous dental patient needs. He's gentle with the instruments (yes, he often does the cleaning himself), uses the most current technology, has a soothing voice, and he even let me use his iPod and headphones to listen to music when he saw i was panicked about getting a cavity filled. His office is also immaculate and his assistant, Kiki is great. I've recommended many friends and co-workers to him...all love him, too. oh, and he also has all the great vanity/beautiful teeth products and services, too. read more

Dr Psaltis is expert at every level of his practice. I have complete confidence in him. He is truly concerned about his patients and it shows! read more

Once again Dr. Psaltis came through for me. His friendly assistant was able to squeeze me in last minute for an emergency. Dr. Psaltis did a great job, as always. All my experiences over the last 10 years with Dr. Psaltis have been exceptional. I would highly recommend him to anyone. read more

The entire process was professional and top of the line. The initial phone call to the office was friendly and informative, they checked my insurance and got back to me right away. Dr. Psaltis readily prescribed the antibiotics I needed prior to the procedure with my pharmacist. The cleaning and x-rays and check up were done comfortably and efficiently. I felt totally at ease during the appointment. Dr. Psaltis was thorough and personable. I never felt rushed or just "another" patient. He informed me of all optional procedures that I could benefit from, but I never felt pressured. I felt it was information for me to consider. Would highly recommend. read more

Dr. Psaltis and his Hygienist were extremely nice and professional, front desk staff was sweet also. My cleaning was superb. I have read the other reviews and I hope I never have a bad experience, but until then I will definitely be a patient of Dr. Psaltis. read more

Recently transplanted from Los Angeles, I was worried in the search of finding a new dentist. Let me preface this review with I am a big scaredy cat when it comes to going to the dentist, always have been! Right from the start Dr. Psaltis and his team have made me feel comforted, cared for and completely safe. Each visit has eased my discomfort and fear. Thank you Dr. Psaltis so very much for your compassion and extreme gentle care of my teeth and of me! read more

Overall positive experience, Dr. G takes the time needed to explain the work and the approach. Current fillings need some adjustments but he has offered to do that work free of charge and he gave me a complimentary teeth whitenting, so thanks, doc! read more

I've always been afraid of dentists, since I was very young. Think about that movie "Little Shop of Horrors," and that the sadist image has been one I always had in my mind, even while receiving a routine cleaning. It absolutely is my worst nightmare! Thank goodness I have Dr. George Psaltis as my dentist. Not only has he virtually eliminated my fears of being tortured in a dental chair, but he has done a spectacular job of taking care of me. He is a true professional, and he is warm and funny to boot. It makes going to the dentist office a delight. I know I am in good hands, and my teeth have never been better. I've received loads of compliments on how pretty they are, and I owe it all to George! read more

I decided to see Dr. Psaltis 2 years ago after many positive recommendations from other patients of his. He's been my primary dentist ever since and now my husband sees him too. We are very happy with his performance. He's always been very personable, caring and meticulous in his approach to our dental care. And he has a fantastic staff. read more

Just because you are a dentist, you don't have a license to print money. Especially a dentist that is not very good. Charges double the going rates and does not deliver. Very disappointed in my dentistry and the over zealous billing. So many better options out there, as I have come to discover. Learn from my mistakes. Agree with the poster regarding his office demeanor. read more

JK Let's face it -- going to the dentist is not necessarily fun; dentists do poke and prod a sensitive area of your body. This can lead to years of simply not going to the dentist which is obviously "not a good thing." I was one of those people who had an upsetting childhood dental experience that still left lasting effects into my adulthood. After moving to New York, I was looking for a dentist who would first and foremost understand my 'fear of going to the dentist' and a dentist who was willing to work with me to increase my comfort level and develop a life long 'managed' dental health care program. After meeting Dr. Psaltis and his Staff, I soon began to realize that I was in good hands. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Psaltis and his Staff which was important to me from the start. Very simply put, if you're comfortable with your dentist you' re more likely to keep your appointments (vs. perpetually canceling -which was my typical behavior) and follow the doctor's advice for on going oral care. OK, so the office is very friendly and welcoming. Dr. Psaltis explained any/all procedures and treatments in a way I could understand and made recommendations based on my needs in simple language so that I could make informed decisions. I'm no longer that patient of years past with 'high anxiety' of going to the dentist and I am now a regular patient who actually looks forward to going to Dr. Psaltis for routine check ups, whitening and ad hoc dental procedures. The combined experience of being in a calm, relaxing and professional environment where there is mutual respect is the kind of dental care and experience that works best for me. I highly recommend Dr. Psaltis for your dental needs. BTW, 'the Doc' is always available after hours/weekends through this Service to answer any/all questions or to address any issues that come up. To me this is invaluable as you know you're talking to a licensed professional and not to an answering service to address your needs ! read more
