Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Worst dentist, horrible human being.
He drilled my tooth and said there was a cavity, and there was no evidence that there was even a cavity afterwards no x-rays or anything to confirm, put in a feeling that came apart later down the road had to have another dentist fix it, and a tooth is so weak from all the drilling that is starting to come apart. I wouldn’t recommend this Dennis for anyone he should have his license revoked.

Root canal nightmare!
I saw this so-called dentist several times before he suggested doing a root canal on my front tooth. After about 3 years had gone by I was experiencing increasing pain above this tooth. The pain became so severe, my sister had to drive me to a dentist who immediately referred me to an endodontist he knew. I went right away and there was a huge abscess that was burst to relieve the pressure. The specialist told me that at some point years before I had a root canal done in which there was drilling into the bone which had become infected over time. Long story short, after spending over $12,000 at the endodontist and then an oral surgeon, I lost this front tooth and had to replace it with a bridge. “Dr. Finkel” later denied any wrong-doing saying the root canal was performed years ago! ONLY LET AN ENDODONTIST DO A ROOT CANAL…NOT A DENTIST! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT ALLOWING THIS MAN ANYWHERE NEAR YOUR MOUTH PERIOD!!! It will cost you dearly in suffering & money!

DR. JAMES FINKEL SERVICE WAS THE WORST SERVICE I'VE EVER RECEIVED . HE WAS Supposed to preform a root canal however he chose not to remove the nerve!! I went back because I trusted that he was giving me correct honest service but he was not . I even went there for invisalign service there too. I wouldn't recommend this service to my worst enemy. The staff was friendly but his wife always have a bad attitude . She may be the reason for alot of the nonsense going on.
