I can't recommend this doctor enough. I went in for an extraction of a deeply impacted wisdom tooth that was sitting on a nerve. He was so clear, patient, and really communicative throughout the whole process. I felt completely taken care of. His wife was incredibly kind as well!! My recovery was amazing barely any swelling and almost no pain. After weeks of being in pain and not functioning, I finally felt like myself again within hours. Such a positive experience for me. read more

I can't say enough nice things about Dr. Hertz. He is very thorough and really handles you with kid gloves. I didn't even feel my wisdom tooth being removed and just like that it was over. No discomfort and 0 pain. I highly recommend using Dr. Hertz for all your dental needs. read more

Dr Hertz, is a special caring oral surgeon. With over 30 years experience, the Dr is a true expert in his field. Dr Hertz extracted "4" wisdom teeth today from my 16 yr old daughter in under 40 mins. My daughter had no pain and is recovering wonderfully. The entire procedure was explained to us clearly step by step. The Dr relieved my daughter of any nervousness and the procedure was super smooth. I will tell the public that this Dr is one of kind. I also should mention that his assistant is his wife who is so articulate and caring. Mrs Hertz is an EMT and literally on call during the procedure... amazing. In a nutshell, if you have a tooth or two or three or four to extract, do yourself a favor and consult with Dr Hertz. Hope this helps those in need. read more

Had to jump through hoops to request an appointment and then they never called me back. Is this some exclusive club or an oral surgery office? Took my business elsewhere. read more

Dr. Hertz has hands of gold. He performed an exposure for my 12 year old. He was so calm and gentle. She has zero pain throughout the procedure and no pain at all (which is so uncommon) afterwards. He helped us with our insurance and followed up afterwards to make sure she was ok. Highly, highly recommend. read more

I was referred to Doctor Hertz by my Orthodontist for an exposure and extraction. I was terrified up until i heard Doctor Hertz voice on the phone he spoke to me very professionally and at the same time very calm, friendly and respectfully. Upon meeting him i knew he was truly a God send!! he explained everything in detail before during and after all my fears went out the door! Doctor hertz went above and beyond, he called and texted several times to make sure i was healing nicely and had no further concerns. Truly dedicated to his patients so relieved to find a dentist that's not all about the money! Super easy to get in contact with i loved that! My experience was amazing 10/10 if you need any procedure done give him a call you won't regret it!! Doctor Hertz is first a person then a Doctor just an amazing human being. I will be referring everyone i know to him! Not forgetting his lovely assistant great team knowledgeable and caring! Trust them with your smile :) read more

Incredibly kind and very skilled surgeon. Made me feel very comfortable by explaining everything that needed to be done clearly. He came in earlier than normal to accommodate my schedule, which was so nice of him. The wisdom teeth extraction went better than I could have hoped. He uses a sedative so the operation went by without me even noticing. Dr. Hertz performed the extraction so well that I had zero swelling after the surgery and didn't even need to take ibuprofen. I would HIGHLY recommend him. read more

See all

Dr. Hertz is a planet above other doctors. I had my wisdom teeth removed and the experience was perfection. His clear and empathetic communication, unparalleled levels of knowledge, personalized and flexible experience tailored straight to my situation, spoiled me to the point that I wouldn't dare use any other oral surgeon read more

I would give Dr. Hertz a fifteen star rating if I could. Dr. Hertz is a true expert in his field. He is compassionate, trustworthy, and extremely kind. He explains everything to you. I went to get three wisdom teeth taken out, and I am so glad that I went to him to get the work done. It was truly a pleasant experience. Him and his wife are a great team together! They are very special people. If only there were more people in the world like them. Please come see him if you need dental work done! You definitely won't regret it. read more

The most honest and helpful dentist around. I am impressed by their business practice and wish we had more people who run their business this way. read more

I had a wonderful experience. Completely painless remove of a very infected tooth. I had a terrible experience at dental365, and Dr Hertz was a welcome change. I will definitely go back if I need his services again. read more

I've had 50 years of horrific dental experiences......you erased them all in one session. There is no reason for me to ever go anywhere else. A huge yasher koach Couldn't gave done it without faigy by myside....plz thank her for me read more

Dr. Hertz was amazing! He removed 2 of my wisdom teeth yesterday and the experience was great. I came to the visit very anxiously, since my previous experience 10 years ago with another doctor was terrible. But this time it was so very different. Dr. Hertz and his assistant were extremely professional and answered all my questions and went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. Dr. Hertz's personality and attitude is truly one of a kind. The actual procedure was done to perfection. It was almost over before it started. And I got an advance play by play from Dr. Hertz while he was doing it, so that I knew what to expect. There was zero pain. And after the procedure was done I felt great. It's the next day now and I can't believe how great I feel. I have no need for painkillers. And of course I received a follow up call, just to make sure I'm OK. The contrast from this experience to the one I had 10 years ago is so great that I can't put it into words. I highly recommend him. I won't let anyone in my family use anyone but him! read more

Dr. Hertz and his wife are amazing people, they make a wonderful team. I had my top left wisdom tooth pulled and a coronectomy done on my bottom left wisdom tooth, due to the unfortunate fact that it was sitting on a nerve. During the procedure I didn't feel any pain at all, it took about an hour but felt like 10 minutes. Dr. Hertz explains everything to you and answers all your questions, he's a sweet and gentle guy. I would recommend him to any and everyone who's looking for a great oral surgeon. read more

I have known this office for almost 8 years now. I have taken my wisdom tooth out right after I had a baby. As scared as I was assuming I might be in yet another pain (just labor was more than enough) Dr. Hertz made the whole experience so swift I barely remember there being any pain at all. Right before surgery, He simply asked already knowing my answer, Do you want something strong? I said strong enough not to feel the pain but not that strong to harm baby who would be nursed after. During the whole procedure everything was narrated so I am fully aware, there was no pain I was shocked feeling silly as to why on earth would I over think following assumptions. He showed care, superior knowledge, cracked up gazillion jokes in the process,but his focus and confidence never left his actions. My recovery was super fast, I felt discomfort only the first day. Did not even take pain meds 2nd day. Not so many years later I surely brought my first daughter when she turned 5, she is 8 now but loves this place and laughs with Dr Hertz everytime she comes with her younger sister. Both had x-rays taken here, both had at least 2 teeth taken out by Dr. Hertz. They have been to other dentists but got so scared that they only want Dr. Hertz to do all related teeth necessities. He is an expert and truely cares for everyone. He is a multi-tasks and always keeps focus. To Simply put... Thank you for your care and a true peace of mind. Can't wait to see his new office right next door! read more

This is a horror story. Please gird yourself. My daughter who suffers from anxiety had terrible tooth pain. She went to our wonderful local dentist, who took her in right away, and said that her 2 wisdom teeth have to be pulled. He called office of Dr. MB Hertz and then said that he was told that they are waiting for us. I picked up my daughter from our local dentist's office & drove to the office of this oral surgeon immediately. I dropped her off and went looking for parking. No kidding ... circled for over 30 minutes , and couldn't find a spot. Tried calling the office of the above (about 10:30am) and no one picked up! Imagine a surgeon's office and no one picks up the phone during business hours! There was a message though: "Please leave your name & number, and message & we'll call you back in 20 MINUTES... if we don't call you in 20 minutes.... TRY AGAIN! I did. A few times. Same message. My daughter did not have a cell phone. Bottom line my daughter waited for over 3 1/2 hours and no one saw her. In the early PM a secretary came in & picked up the phone. I asked if my daughter was seen: "no , not yet! " I quickly drove over, parked 4 blocks away, walked in the 90 degree weather to pick her up , never to return to this horrible place. Found another oral surgeon, wonderful staff and doctor. This cramped place could be used as a setting for a horror movie. Stephen King, are you listening? read more

Love love ! Omg he is a life saver;) made my daughter so Pain free happy!! Magic hands ;) Thank you sooo much Doc hertz Only :/ where's the pizza ha ha inside joke ! He is a genius his staff is awesome..... read more

Best surgeon anyone can pick. He took out two of my wisdom teeth, it was very painless and fast. Recovery time was short and painless as well. He's also very charismatic and will answer all your questions to make sure you're not nervous. I highly recommend him! read more

amazing experience. Dr. Marc Hertz is patient, calm and super knowledgeable! i highly recommend his services.

I went to him for all four removals! He's really nice and extremely gentle. Highly recommended. The only bad thing is that it's just him taking out wisdom teeth so the wait may be a little long if you have a later appoitment. read more

I had a great experience with Dr. Hertz. He removed my teeth in no time i did not have any pain at all. amazing recovery.

My mouth is still numb from the 3 (yes, 3) extractions I just had done. I thought I'd write a review while it was still fresh in my mind. Thank G-d I went to Dr. Hertz because despite my low tolerance of pain, Dr. Hertz made me as comfortable as possible. Dr. Hertz is understanding, attentive, and friendly. I will recommend him to all my friends and family members. I hope I don't have to extract any more teeth (ever) but if I do, I'd go back to Dr. Hertz, for sure! read more

He was amazing! I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed and he did it pain free! I don't handle pain well and it was super easy for me. I'm healing quickly and easily with barely any swelling. Couldn't be happier! read more

Brought my young daughter in for a double extraction as I was concerned that she wouldn't sit still for the procedure. Dr. Hertz assured her while speaking directly to her, keeping her mind off what was about to happen. He has a very kind chair side manner. Once the gums were numb, the process took no time at all (just as he had assured us) and we were back home in no time. I would highly recommend him to anyone (of any age) looking for an oral surgeon. read more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Hertz. I recently passed my nursing boards so I'm currently unemployed and on Obamacare. While eating a sandwich my wisdom tooth cracked, my current dentist (who I paid cash) doesn't pull wisdom teeth so I had to find an oral surgeon. I spend 4 HRS (!!!!) calling different dentists within my network, either they didn't pick up, were nasty, left me on hold for 20 min, needless to say I was feeling helpless. The last dr I called was Dr. Hertz. Right off the bat his receptionist was amazing, she told me they take my ins., but i needed a referral, I asked how I would go about doing that, she immediately told me "don't worry, i'll take care of that." They didn't have an apt for 2 weeks, but she squeezed me in since it was a cracked wisdom tooth, I literally started crying on the phone thanking her for all her help. When I got to the office, the same thing, they were all incredibly nice. The dr himself was amazing. He explained every, single, solitary step of the procedure. He showed me my x-ray and explained what he thought would be best for me, explained the risks and outcomes and asked what I wanted to do. I only needed one tooth pulled, but I decided to do both the top and bottom. I was sooooo nervous. He asked me if I wanted to listen to music and brought his laptop in the room and I said I don't care what he put on as long as it was soothing. He turned on Adele lol and I asked if this would be over before the song was.... it was!!!! He gave me Versed IV to calm me, which hit in 0.5 seconds, numbed me and in 2 seconds me teeth were out!!!!!! He sat with me after and explained the aftercare, gave me scripts, and a printout of everything he told me. The print out even had his cell # on it in case there were complications during after hours. I would completely recommend him, in about 2 weeks I'm going back to get the other 2 pulled out. read more

I went to see Dr. Hertz on the recommendation of my dentist (Dr. Rosenkranz) for the extraction of 2 impacted wisdom teeth, 1 fully descended wisdom tooth and 1 failed root canal. I was super scared, but Dr. Hertz was wonderful; he explained every possible scenario and made me feel at ease with the procedure. Before I knew it he was saying "2 teeth are already out!" It went quickly and painlessly and he talked to me the entire time making jokes and asking me how I was doing. I highly recommend Dr. Hertz. read more

For those looking for a oral surgeon Marc Hertz is it. I am going to tell you why. I have had this issue with my ear infections that kept coming back and this has been going on for almost 6 months. My ENT doctor couldn't figure out what it was I had to go through MRI's and an allergy tests and a hearing test. Then they came back and told me that it looks like you have TMJ. I'm like what!? How can this be? They kept telling me oh it sometimes come with age? (SMH) It got to the point my ENT doctor said I can't do anything more for you because he doesn't deal with jaw issues. At this point frustration was out the door! He told me to go back to my dentist or see an oral surgeon. So I had to call my insurance and they gave me a list of names. This is where Marc B. Hertz came into the picture. What I did first I googled him! Lol I wanted to view his reviews to see what I will be dealing with next. I decided to make an appointment because my gum area and my molars were so super sensitive and I was already having abscess on my molars. Yes I googled that too and it turns out I want to fix this asap. I made an appointment with Mr. Hertz and I have to say my first visit was very pleasant. I saw that Mr. Hertz was very busy so I waited till it was my turn. As soon as I went in the room he was so nice w/ smiles to greet me. I know that he saw fear and frustration on my face. I continued to tell him my issue, to make a long story short this visit of course was just to check my situation, it wasn't my actual appointment. After telling him we proceeded to get a full mouth x-ray. In a matter of minutes he came in w/ my x-ray sat down and showed me on the screen what the problem was. I was like OMG!! he already saw the issue and continued to tell me that my molars lost some bone mass and they were sinking down into my gum that is why they looked grey on the x-ray. That is why I was getting the abscess on my molars. I was so relieved to know what the problem was. He then explained to me that I can have them extracted or seek to save my molars. In this case I was like I don't want issues anymore and I also red root canals have more problems!! No way do I want anymore pain. I decided to have them pulled out!! Continued with my appointments and I have to say Dr. Hertz was gentle, kind, very excellent to explain thoroughly in great detail what the issues are and how the extraction process takes place. I have never ever met a doctor who really cares!! This man loves his profession to really help people in pain. Ever since I got my molars pulled out I'm Good!! You're in good hands with this man who is an angel to help you through your pain!!! I would recommend him to the world!! Especially when we all know a lot of doctors are about the paycheck or don't have any bed side manners to help you. I'm just keeping it real!! Dr Marc Hertz is your oral surgeon you won't be discourage at all. Do know tho he does get booked because he is that good. But stick w/ him. Thank you Dr. Marc Hertz for doing such a great job at what you do and that is help people! Take care at what you do. (((Hugs))))) read more

Had to write in my first review to commend the guy, great doctor, very professional, and a class act (also great staff, very empathetic.). One of the best Oral Surgeons in NYC, best kept secret! read more

My daughter needed multiple extractions of her baby teeth to allow room for her permanent ones. We received high recommendations for Dr. Hertz, but my daughter was still apprehensive about the process. Yet, as soon as Dr. Hertz walked into the office, we knew we were in excellent hands. Watching him treat his patients was like watching a magician at work. He put my daughter at ease kindly, quickly and efficiently. He answered all her questions, and made sure she was comfortable and understood everything that was going on, at each step. Before she had time to experience any anxiety -- four of her teeth were already pulled out, and it was over! She could not believe how painless it was! We went for ice cream, and she was ready to go back to school. No swelling and no worries. Nice stuff too. Thank you so much! L. Z. read more

I recently saw Dr. Hertz and had a great experience. He walked me through each step of my procedure and was excellent in answering the questions I had. read more

I had the most terrible experience with Dr. Hertz I was recommended by a "friend" who has Medicaid, I paid for my implant he wanted everything in cash and in advance. When he was done with the surgery, the secretary handed me the antibiotic prescription, I had to return to redo some of the surgery I ended up taking five times antibiotics, walked with a swollen face 2 months, I would not go to him if he is the last dentist in the world. Sara S read more

I went to this dentist to get my upper right molar wisdom tooth extracted. The receptionist had called and originally canceled on me i think a couple hours prior. I explained I took off work and cant just not be seen especially with a couple hours notice. I was told Dr. Hertz was not feeling well and that was the reason. I asked them if there was any way to be seen because I would not be able to wait until Monday to be seen just due to work not letting me take off. They called me back within an hour and told me to come in. When i walked in the office, it looked very dated, like they haven't caught up with the times of modern dental offices. Anyways the wait wasn't too long, no issues with insurance. The dental assistance was informative and answered all my questions. When i saw Dr.Hertz he did look sick, like he had a fever so I guess it was true. Anyway he answered my questions and explained the process and such. Like i said, their equipment looked dated but it got the job done with minimal pain. I dont know if i was put to sleep but I remember being awake when the tooth was removed. Honestly i didn't feel much pain. I did explain to them that local anesthesia wasn't that effective on me when it came to if i felt pain, so maybe they gave me some extra shots, who knows. He prescribed me some meds, and i was out in less than 2 hours i think. I question the method he used to take my tooth out as it was kinda preyed off using the dental tool, which none of m previous extraction were like, but i felt very minimal pain, and the recovery process went smooth. read more

N.Y. is privileged to have dr hertz!!!! from the second i walked in the staff treated me like a king never losing their patience. I had 3 procedures done by dr hertz and all off them including my wisdom teeth felt perfectly fine the next day that i even went to school. the dr picked up the phone anytime i called him to answer all my questions. i wish all my doctors can be like dr hertz read more

There was a miscommunication at first but after I left a voice mail the doctor himself call me back during his holiday to apologize to me and was very accommodating to my schedule for my rescheduled appointment. I was called the day before and the day of my appointment to confirm my appointment and to be given instructions on what to do before my appointment. When I arrived to the office it's was very quite and clean. I did not have a long wait time. When it was my turn to see the doctor he made me feel very comfortable. Before anything started he explained how the process would go and all the risk of the surgery. He also explained to me the benefits of taking out the top and bottom tooth instead of just the bottom tooth. The doctor and staff was very gentle and caring. When I was done the doctor walked me outside and downstairs to my car to meet my friend to make sure I got down the stairs safely. Over all I had a great in office experience at Dr. Hurtz office and I would go back again for future surgeries. read more

Very friendly office environment. The doctor is a nice guy with a great sense of humor which really alleviates a lot of the anxiety felt when undergoing oral surgery. The procedure itself was surprisingly quick, efficient and virtually painless. My only complaint is that I had to wait 2 hours to see the doctor; the appointment scheduling process seems to be somewhat inefficient. read more

This past Fall, I went to Dr. Hertz for a consultation and he recommended a tooth extraction; however, it would take a few weeks before my next appointment since I had to obtain a referral. Shortly after, I received a letter from my health insurance indicating my coverage would end within the next week because I no longer qualified. They were at least able to process my referral faster because I explained I couldn't afford to pay thousands of dollars for this procedure. I called Dr. Hertz immediately and explained the situation and that I needed to be seen within the next week before my coverage ended. He went above and beyond to help me. He was overbooked during that week (due to holidays) so he went as far as coming in on a Saturday night to do my procedure - there was another patient there too. I got my tooth extracted (which had been a problem for years) this past September and haven't had a single issue since. The process was pain free and I didn't even need to take any medication after the procedure. I highly recommend him! read more

I took my mom to Dr. Hertz, after her general dentist was having trouble extracting a tooth. And I'd like to say, there are still excellent doctors around. The hard part is finding them. He is such a kind and caring person. From start to finish, he is thorough as to what needs to be done. And what he will do. This puts a tremendous comfort on a patient that is nervous. As we all are going to the dentist. If anyone tells you that extracting teeth is pain free, is clearly lying to you. All extractions hurt, some more than others. It all depends on the location of the tooth. Whether it is infected or not. Or how deep the roots are. However, if you need a tooth pulled, it is what it is. I think the most important thing is not the pain, but the trust you have in your doctor. That, although you might have some pain. It is quick, short lasting, and extremely limited. My mom is 72, and after her procedure, she told me that if she ever needs any other teeth pulled. She wants Dr. Hertz to do it. He is an oral surgeon, and to be honest, I'd rather have a surgeon extract my tooth than any general dentist. After all, extracting teeth is considered minor surgery. And things can go wrong. Hence, why a lot of dentists are starting to refer their patients to oral surgeons. I highly recommend Dr. Hertz to anyone that needs an oral surgeon. I hope after your visit you say, wow! Thank's to that nice guy that took the time to write this review in an attempt to help other people. I hardly write any reviews, however this was worth writing about. read more

Went to Dr. Hertz for a wisdom tooth extraction. Things got off to a rocky start as his assistant didnt show up for work and so he had to call in his wife (a former assistant) who drove in an hour away. despite this, he was one of the best dentists i've ever had. Very friendly, very professional, and NO PAIN! I was very very please. Healed as promised within a week! read more

OMG! I was so nervous about having a wisdom tooth removed. He was great. Put me at ease and said count to 10, by 8 the tooth was out!! WOW!! He and his staff were really great! read more
