Dental techs are great, Dr. Petraglia is knowledgeable and efficient and I don't dislike going to this dentist the way I have to others in the past.

My daughter loves all the pictures and themed rooms. She loves picking out her toothpaste flavor and then getting a bag of goodies at the end. We can typically find a spot in the lot, but if its full you can pay to park on Murray ave. My favorite part is there is a Starbucks in the same building. Anyways- could not recommend this office more!

Dr. Jack is the best dentist of all time…read more No joke...I'm nearly 25 years old and I don't live in Pittsburgh anymore but I still want Dr. Jack to be my dentist. My two siblings and I have all gone to Dr. Jack since we were little kids. If you're looking for a pediatric dentist in the Squirrel Hill area - go here! Great guy, always makes kids feel comfortable and his staff goes to great effort to explain what is going on. I can't say enough about Dr. Jack and his staff...overall the best people. Seriously, this guy saved me from having braces! And while my little sister needed braces, she got them off recently and her teeth look incredible! Give Dr. Jack a call...you'll never regret it!

Do NOT go to any other Dr. than Dr. Sweeney, better yet go anywhere else. Dr. Dugan treated my…read moreroutine surgery consultation like he was reading from a flash card. Like he'd said the same speech to a million people and had it memorized. I was just a number, I was just a paycheck. Over all my costs there were just under a thousand dollars, and for that much I would AT LEAST be treated like a human being. Their secretary, Tony is genuinely the rudest person ever, with rude remarks and short answers. All of their paperwork says "don't hesitate to call if you have any questions ", but every time I tried to address concerns about my health (before and after the surgery), I got a hold of Tony, who refused to help me. For example: I called to tell them about an allergy to medicine I have and Tony told me to "just tell them when you come in for surgery." So when I called them to confirm my appointment I reminded her of my allergies and with attitude she tells me she "should have known that earlier". Are you kidding me?! The only positive thing I can say is that Dr. Sweeney was very knowledgeable and took the time to talk TO ME not AT ME. In the 10 minutes before my surgery, he explained more about the procedure than Dr. Dugan did in the entire consultation. I would have rather paid more money to go to a surgeon who has respectful staff, and doesn't treat their patients like they are just numbers. Don't even bother with Snyder and Dugan, go anywhere else.

Then I called them back again and she sounded even more annoyed that I called this time saying that the doctor wasn't accepting all insurance anymore and I said yes I understand that, I talked to you and I confirmed that this was in network. She put me on hold and I just hung up. Very poor bedside manner unfortunately.

WARNING: Please be aware of DENTISTRY FOR CHILDREN and (supposedly) TEENS in Beaver, PA and East…read moreLiverpool, OH. Over the weekend, my 15-year-old had 2 fillings fall out that Dr. Davis placed in 6 months ago. She was awake all-night crying about the pain. When I called for an emergency appointment this morning, I was informed by Kara, the office manager who also consulted with the doctor, that Katie was suddenly not only too old at 15 to be treated, but that because her sister missed an appointment (supposedly) on October 1, 2012 - yes, 10 years ago - that neither would be allowed to be seen again. They claim that Katie also missed an appointment last November. My children have been every 6 months since they were toddlers. They claim that they left a vm on our home machine. Absolutely no message left and no appointment missed by either child in literally 15 years of going there. This practice does not allow you to schedule a cleaning or wellness exam (which my children have never missed) until you are sent a card in the mail that you may schedule. The children complained at times about the practice, but it is close and was not a problem until now. They informed me to find a new dentist on the morning that I call with an emergency appointment.

The staff there are so nice and friendly, and you can tell they like being around children! My kids love getting to pick a prize from the prize box after their cleanings. One of my children has had extractions due to some orthodontic problems and Dr. Davis and his staff worked miracles for my daughter. She never cried or was worried during the entire procedure thanks to Dr. Davis' caring bedside manner. Pros * staff genuinely likes children, lots of smiles and kid-friendly conversation * sensitivity to children's emotions and apprehensions * courteous desks staff * prizes for the kids * very clean facilities * excellent at giving appointment reminders Cons * office is in a lower level of a building & feels a tad dated looking - could benefit form brightening it up with paint or other updating * use fluoride (could be an issue for those who avoid fluoride)

I have never, in my entire life, had as terrible an experience as I did at Dr. Parker's office. My visit for three cavity fillings began when Dr. Parker went to numb me up. When I told him I have a tolerance for dental anesthetics and generally need a bit more than most people, I was told it was psychosomatic. That was my first red flag...even if pain is only in one's head (and my dentist back home has told me I have this tolerance, it's not a new thing, it's been true since childhood), isn't the point to make the patient feel comfortable? He then proceeded to do one of the shots directly into a nerve in my cheek. (If you've never had this happen, the pain is BLINDING. I actually screamed.) When I had trouble opening my mouth (because he shot numbing agent DIRECTLY INTO A NERVE), instead of helping me gently ease it open, Dr. Parker stuck two fingers in my mouth and literally yanked. The fillings themselves turned out very good, and I've had no problems with them in the two months since they were done, but I was in misery the entire time, CLEARLY in pain and discomfort, and Dr. Parker never stopped, never once asked if I was okay, never bothered to add more anesthetic. Not once, in an hour of work. He clearly has no patience for patients themselves and doesn't care about anything except getting through his work. He also spent a good chunk of this visit belittling the female hygienist assisting him, and even took a break at one point in the middle of my work to go do an eval of another patient. The sheer unprofessionalism would have been enough to turn me off all by itself, even without the horrific way he did the work. I went home after that visit and sobbed. This has never happened to me before. I was supposed to go back after an upcoming root canal to have a crown done, and the thought gave me literal nightmares until I decided to find a new dentist instead. If you have a pain tolerance and don't care about bedside manner, Dr. Parker knows what he's about and is good at the actual dental side of things. If you have any anxiety about dentistry whatsoever, AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
