Dr. Kessler seemed kind at first but quickly lost patience. His office was crowded and, while he seemed well intentioned, he did not listen to my concerns.

My bridge had fallen out and front tooth chipped, Dr. Kessler beautifully repaired my teeth and created a new bridge. He helped rebuild my confidence in my smile. He worked carefully and stayed within my financial budget. I felt very well looked after and the results of his hard work have paid off. I have no hesitation recommending Dr. Kessler.

It was the day after Easter and I was 85 miles from home. My upper molar abssedand I needed a root canal. A nerve was exposed. I called from a construction site only finding him using Google search. He said I was only 7 blocks away and get there asap. I am 36 and have tons of dental work done. This man really know what he is doing. Fast, pain free the second i sat in his chair. Being far from home knowing nothing around you but a job site. I got really lucky. I may even use him. for all my teeth. Worth the drive. Thanks DOC!!!

i was given a bad root canal when i thought i was in for a filling, it had to be redone. the assistants miscounted my cavities on the x ray. they did not disclose the price before doing the procedure even though i made it clear to them that i am not ensured. the offices are dingy.

This guy has done my teeth for over 12 years. He's fair on prices, funny, and a great dentist. I'd send my brother, mom and grandma to him.

I had previously gone to Dr. Kessler to do a crown on my back tooth. I returned later to have a front tooth repaired. Days after the procedure the same tooth cracked again. When I went back he not only charged me to repair his own work but when I woke up in the morning the same tooth was cracked again. This has left me paying for the same procedure for a third time. I just want to forewarn anyone who plans to use Dr. Kessler in the future because the time and money that I have had to dole out makes me wish I had never gone there in the first place. Now I am looking for another place to repair Dr. Kessler's shoddy work because even if he didnt charge me, I am worried it would only crack again. My only consolation is to place this review to help prevent others from the same experience I am now going through. Thank you.

I went to the office because it's in the neighborhood. Was not the cleansest place I've been too. Dr Kessler was too busy to sit and talk. He rushed in and out. Treatment was average at best!!! Better off looking for someone who cares about patients!!!

Dr. Kessler performed an excruciating Root canal for which i paid a standard 800 dollars not covered by insurance. Two out of three nerves he pulled were not anesthetised when he yanked on them. He seemed annoyed and embarrassed when I started screaming in pain. The cover he put on the tooth was open on one side and jagged and constantly caught food. I knew this was not right. By comparison I have had one other root canal before - in South America - for 80 dollars, and it was not painful at all. After the root canal I asked to be checked for cavities. Xrays were taken and the results were waived off. Turns out I had several cavities. Dr. Kessler neglected to attend to these which would have been covered by my insurance at that time. Now I need another root canal. I wont be going back there.

I found Dr. Kessler to be most unhelpful. When I asked him to inspect what later turned out to be a cracked tooth, he told me that it was a loose filling and advised me to chew a lot of gum until it came out.
