I dreaded visits to the dentist growing up. When a friend raved about her dentist 20 years ago, I went reluctantly, not really believing he could be as good as my friend had claimed. He was and he is! He is thorough, takes his time, and makes the elimination of pain a top priority. He treats my whole family- my husband and three kids. He has done fillings, crowns, bonding, bridges, as well as referred us to great endodontist, oral surgeon and orthodontist for root canals, tooth extractions and braces, respectively. He is soft-spoken and has a great chair-side manner. He once redid a crown that he had done a year before--at NO charge-- because he thought it could look better (and I am a very picky person, who thought it looked good!) I have referred many friends, who also adore him. His staff is fantastic; friendly and helpful--Karen has run the office there for the entire time I've been with Dr. Mendelovitz. I know that there are less expensive dentists out there, but I would never leave an office where the dentistry is top-rate to save a few bucks. And, they bill my insurance and I receive a bill after they've been paid by my insurance company!
About Hygienist: The hygienist, a different Karen, is also tops! She is gentle, sweet-natured and takes her time as well--you must allow an hour for a cleaning. My teeth feel as smooth as glass for about a week after I've been to see her!
I know this doctor: more than 20 years
