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.

Ate an olive with a pit and cracked my tooth. Petrified of dentists I was recommended to see Dr. Pezzollo. Well, was I amazed how simple and easy the entire procedure was. Dr. Pezzollo listened and answered all of my questions. He explained the procedure clearly so I understood what was going to happen throughout the entire surgery to afterwards. What a great bedside manner! Throughout the entire procedure he showed kindness and compassion and I was able to calm myself. I felt confident I made the right decision on choosing him to perform my surgery. So confident I returned and had an implant placed. I would highly recommend him to all my friends and family. It’s too bad he doesn’t do general dentistry…..

Doesn't listen to you, Doesn't value your time.
This doctor will give you the runaround and will not value your time or efficiently help you.For years he has given me the runaround regarding a cyst on my gum saying it will go away. Instead of going away it got worse.Upon arriving to their dental office today I took an x-ray. Later on he wants me to take a different X-ray costing hundreds of dollars after I already took multiple X-rays.

Great Experience During Difficult Time
Had exposed nerve from broken tooth. I was in immense pain. Dr. P took his time with diagnosis and explained the upcoming procedure in detail. It took a while for the area to numb. Dr P did not show an ounce of frustration or try to rush me into moving forward. Unfortunately I had an infection by the tooth which caused the novicaine to be ineffective. Fortunately I was eligible for sedation. From there I don't remember anything. (Lol) Tooth is gone and I'm pain free. Truly impressive bed side manor and a job impeccably done. Thank you

Hello! We rely heavily on recommendations made by family & friends. So when our General Practice Dentist of almost 30 years - who is more like an Uncle to us - highly recommended Progressive Oral Surgery we did not hesitate. Enter Dr. Gene Pezzollo. From the moment Dr. Pezzollo entered the room, it was very evident that he was blessed with being a "people person". Right away we could tell he is a very active listener, compassionate, kind hearted and incredibly patient. He took the time to break down all of the clinical options for us - very clearly. Our first visit with Dr. Pezzollo ended with us feeling like we were visiting our General Practice Dentist: family. The professional office staff are courteous, accommodating and also very patient. If Progressive Oral Surgery of Long Island is built upon the values we experienced at our first visit, it would appear to us to be a "Best Practice Model". Thank you!

Dr Pezzollo has been my oral surgeon for about 10 years now. I highly recommend him to all my friends and family with any of their oral surgery needs. I find him extremely knowledgeable and competent. I trust his judgment implicitly. He goes out of his way to make his patients feel comfortable taking the time to explain all aspects of what needs to be done and what he will be doing. I highly recommend him for any & all of your oral surgery needs. By far the best oral surgeon in the business!

Dr Pezzollo is nothing short of extraordinary. I went to see him recently for what I thought to be a complex problem. I was very jittery and frankly afraid. He is not only a brilliant oral surgeon but he has a genuine interest in his patients and their health. He took the time to explain the procedure in detail. He did a perfect job and afterwards took the time to follow up personally. I called on the weekend with a question. He got back promptly. Would recommend him without reservation!

Dr. Pezzollo staff was warm and friendly. Which was such a relief because my daughter needed her impacted wisdom teeth removed per her dentists opinion. My daughter is petrified of dentist for some unknown reason and upon meeting Dr. Pezzollo she was immediately at ease. He reassured her and included 'small talk' of Paige's college experience and inquired of her area of study at Villanova! I knew right away that Dr. Pezzollo was the perfect choice for my daughter and family!

He is a great Oral surgeon. Procedures went well. However, he is arragant, overbooks and works too quickly. Problem after hours? He will not answer his pages. An answering service has been given procedures from him to only page him, no calls. He forgot to order my pain medication and never answered the page from my pharmacy or the messages I left 3 times about the problem. Not even a call the next day. He is good but he is an extreme Narcissist. "He thinks who he is." Not caring.

My experience with Dr. Pezzollo exceeded my expectations. He treated me with respect, and took the time to listen, as well as to explain my condition in terms I could understand. He immediately instilled in me a sense of trust in his medical judgement. The procedure was a success and the follow up care was excellent. He is a consummate professional that I will continue to recommend to friends and family.

I have been going to see Dr. Pezzollo for over a year and cannot say enough about his care. From entering his office and working with his kind staff, to the cleanliness and order of his practice, all the way to the check out process ? his office and professionalism is second to none. You will not find a more genuine doctor of his caliber!!!
