out of Read Reviews for Dr. Peter Ceravolo
I saw Dr Ceravalo about 3 years ago for a tooth that needed a root canal, I’ve had a couple root canals before so I knew what to expect and I do not have any phobias with the dentist. I went in and he numbed me, I told him prior to him starting that I was still in pain and he started anyway- telling me I was anxious. He then stopped and put more numbing in after I begged him to and I blamed for the numbing not working as when people are anxious it’s hard for them to be numbed- which is partly true. I had to come back numerous times about 3-4 to complete the procedure and then the root canal failed anyway. 3 years later the tooth has broken in half and now I have to pay again to have my back molar removed. I was referred by the MOHS surgeon who worked in the same building as I worked there and it was convenient to go there and I have never been sorrier for anything in my life. This has resulted in so much pain and more dental surgery on the same tooth. He is not a good doctor.

I have known Pete over 20 years as a patient and a friend. Which is why it pains me so to write this review.
I feel compelled to warn others regarding Pete Ceravolo and his declining ability. I have had at least four root canals with Pete and it is the experience regarding my last root canal which went horribly wrong.
Pete is declining and must have early onset brain problems. He told me my visit would be completed in two visits (after the initial consult) and he "wrapped everything up in one" I asked him about the warning he gave me of the need for two visits and I even paid two visits worth of nitrous. The tooth was not sealed properly and when I returned to him in pain he told me to go see an oral surgeon. I asked him to show me where on the X-rays he said I had a problem and he could not even look at me while he proceeded to lie to my face.
I used to hang out with Pete up on his 300 acre farm where he used to boast about his prowess in "Drilling, Filling and Billing!" I should have taken that as a warning sign and stopped using him. He is available at a moments notice which certainly does not speak much of the demand for his services. His office is always empty waiting for his next prey.

I normally am disinterested in reviews and hype. Who knows what is legit these days....right? Well, for what its worth, I just finished yet another root canal with Dr. Ceravolo and it was just as efficient, painless, and a fairly-priced experience as the previous treatments he had done for me on two separate occasions over the course of 2 years. Way back when my dental problems started, I checked all around town, got all sorts of consultations, asked around with all my friends and family. To summarize it all: Everyone recommended Dr. Ceravolo's expertise as a specialist. This office's fees are fairly reflective of industry pricing for this service. Root canals and surgery done correctly are not cheap anywhere!! No one wants to park a mile away, ride up an elevator packed in like a sardine, walk down to the last door in a long dark hallway, only to sit and wait in an old dingy, smelly dental office. At Dr. Ceravolo's you get treated in a brand new, conveniently located, easy-to-access facility---wait until you see the building and the treatment rooms---absolutely plush! Go see this guy, he'll get you out of pain (or help you avoid it all together) and he and his staff will treat you and charge you right.

Watch the billing! It's like bait and switch. You get one bill, settle up, and months later, they add new charges for old services. It's not right.
