Very problematic. I went in for a relatively simple problem and instead of doing an x-ray (which…read moreshould be included in the consult) followed by simple treatment, they wanted a 600 dollar CT scan in order to continue, totally unnecessary. Thankfully, I declined it. I went to another dentist in another town and had exactly the right treatment, with x-ray, all for the price of the consult:. It's a shame because there are nice people who work in that office and they are kind when you ring them. But it's not good to try and take people for a dental ride. I hope they learn a lesson and don't do this again.

My long-term dentist retired and I needed work done when some childhood fillings collapsed. Dr…read more Manunts is very stand-offish with non-existent chairside manner. She sent me to have three teeth removed. While I was waiting for those sites to heal I lost the tip of another. I went in to have the tip repaired and she also did purely cosmetic fillings on the outside surface with the warning it might not last. She was right. It didn't. I paid over $800 for a gloss that fell out after two weeks. It's been a year now and the tip repair has fallen out, too. I had a partial plate with six teeth built for almost $2K. I can't wear it. It gives me a speech impediment. She said, "Oh, just read the newpaper outloud." There is so much plastic I can't find my alveolar ridge to form an l, n, d, or t. There is even plastic on the back surface of the upper front teeth, that I can't form an Italian l either. I'm a voice professional and must be able to perform in Italian, French, and English as well as demonstrate to my students. The only positives about the office are the delightful woman in the front office and the very healthy croton that gets morning sunshine through the window. Avoid at all costs. I have spoken with others who unanimously share my opinions, but they don't seem to register reviews here.

I thought their prices were high, but after some research, they appear to be what most other offices charge. I guess prices are high all over for dental services.

But overall, I would highly recommend them.

As a former healthcare clinic manager of 20 years, I can usually tell within minutes whether a…read moreclinic is well run. From my very first call, Gorges Dentistry gave me all the green flags. The staff were genuine, attentive, and professional -- you can feel when a clinic truly values patients, and this one does. My first visit was excellent. The care team listened, took their time, and never made me feel rushed. The atmosphere was modern, clean, and relaxed. Staff encouraged and reinforced positive habits rather than shaming anyone for what they "should" be doing -- a huge difference compared to other places. The first set of x-rays was essentially free (saving me hundreds), which stunned me. Both the dentist and hygienist were thorough, careful, and patient. This is how dentistry should feel: professional, compassionate, and centered on care -- not billing. I highly recommend Gorges Dentistry to anyone in Ithaca looking for quality dental care.

I would like to start off by saying Dr. Omar was incredible…read more HOWEVER, the staff was very unhelpful, unprofessional, and unknowledgeable about how my insurance worked. I have an Excellus plan through the marketplace. They initially told me that I would receive a reimbursement check in 4-6 weeks... That time had passed so I called back and someone said they would get back to me later that day (no one ever did...). I waited another WEEK and had to call back again. When I spoke to a person this time they had trouble looking me up because the person initially taking down my information had it completely wrong... same birthday (month/day) but wrong year, same first name, but wrong last name, and the wrong street address (but the same street number...). Very odd and unprofessional - it seemed like they were trying to multitask or looking at information from two different sheets... It made enough sense to confirm it was me, but had SO MANY errors. Either way once that was resolved she said I would get a check for reimbursement withing a week. Another Week goes by and nothing so I call back AGAIN! And this time I find out that they cannot submit the claim because its through the state (I don't know how they missed that on my initial visit, but they did.) SO I had to call insurance and submit the claim on my own just to find out that Gorges dental was "out of network" - so now Im stuck paying "out of pocket". I WOULD AVOID THIS DENTIST AT ALL COST IF YOU HAVE INSURANCE THROUGH EXCELLUS, OR ANY PLAN THROUGH "THE STATE".

It was easy to schedule an appointment to see the dentist as a new patient. The staff and the…read moredoctor were friendly and the office is comfortable. It doesn't even have that awful dentist office smell! I was pleased with the way Dr. Whipple explained my dental issues and what the appropriate treatment would be. Be aware that they don't perform root canals in office, but refer you to an endodontist, which can be good or bad. For me, it's inconvenient to have to go to another office (hence the four star rating), but there's certainly nothing wrong with having a specialist do the procedure. I plan to have my routine care at Seven Valley Dental from now on.

I couldn't understand, as my wife and I had been seeing this dentist, in Ithaca, for many years! I was in terrible pain, for days. I contacted Dr. Whipple's office based, on his existing rating. After describing what my issue was, the staff at Seven Valley Dental, arranged for me to see the Dr., in less than an hour and a half. That is unheard of! Amazing. The Dr. helped with my dental issue, prior to a prearranged appointment with an oral specialist, later that day. My general dentist did NOTHING to help me! Again, I have no idea why not. I contacted the office three (3) times, about my plight. Awful! My wife and I are seniors and need stability and assurance that our dental needs will be met with understanding and compassion. Dr. Whipple and his entire staff at Seven Valley Dental provided that for me. I understand that this review is my own personal experience. However, one needs to look at the other posts about this dental practice. Cortland residents are very lucky to have such a great dentist in their midst!!!!! I cannot give a higher endorsement to this Dr. and his entire staff of professionals!! Bernie B. Dryden, NY
