went to him on a medical concern on 1 tooth, due puss coming out, problem later to reoccurre due to him not adequately fixing it ??
He didn't care about anything but money, ??
my smile wasn't bad,
convinced me of veneers for my front set of teeth at a cost i couldn't afford but got tempted by his help to get a loan with monthly payments
He was supposed to do the 4 front,
Later with the salesman trick, convinced me to add 2 more as it helps cover the full front and achieve better result,
I started feeling uncomfortable, but I went for it anyways, Then later convinced to add one more to another since he has to fix a cavity in it anyway, adding cost on top of another.
he promised to replace all old cavities by new ones which he didn't and deliver a nice white bottom teeth to match the color of the vineers by his whitening top of the shelf machine, but he didn't achieve good result and promised another session but he didn't deliver ??
When applying vineers, he got to a point in the

i paid $3300 for 5 crowns. he screwed up all of them. it took him 6 months to do the job. which was soooooo bad. my gums start bleeding when i eat. i was shocked that he was giving me 4 crowns to steal for the 5th crown. he's an insensitive doctor, just GREEDY for money! BEWARE. don't go to him to save money. i am dragging him to consumers court.

I required extensive dental care and found Dr. Apfel to provide excellent dental care. Dr, Apfel took the time to go over in detail my dental issues, provided me with a options and explained how these options would effect my short and long-term dental care. He and is staff were consistent, timely, and did a great job with all my needs. I did need to see him a few times for my procedures; however, this was only because he was that thorough and careful with the issues he was addressing. Specifically, I had issues that ranged from gum disease to molar issues, and the need for veneers. Everything came out fantastic! I am more than pleased. I highly recommend Dr. Apfel for all your dental care needs. And on top of outstanding professional care, both Dr,. Apfel and his wonderful staff are genuine in the care they provide. From a financial viewpoint, I did shop around knowing what type of work I needed. So - on top of great service, the costs were competitive. Highly recommended.

I am tired of always having a different Dental Hygienist. You should keep the ones who do a good thorough job. I like my whole mouth cleaned, not just part of it. So no I would not recommend you.

If you have dental insurance, make sure you read the insurance statement before you pay off all the cost. That will save a million headaches. Because he will overcharge you.
