I was in unbearable pain which no pain killer could stop it. My teeth was infected. When I visited his office, i begged him to do anything to stop the pain. He gave me two anesthesia. He left me and sent me the nurse to ask me to pay $1500 in advance or otherwise he would not treat me although I been with him for 8 years. He refused to treat me before taking the money. I had to see another dentist the second day who pulled out the tooth. 4 years ago, he did implant and bridge. He did not tell me that he expand the bridge for 5 teeth. Last January the bridge fall a part, my new dentist found out that the teeth were rotten because fatal mistakes in the root canal and the implant. I been in hell because this dentist that I will file charge against him.

My son had orthodontic treatment with Dr. Meckler. For two years he had braces on. He was so excited to finally get them off. He came home with cement residue on every tooth. They left tall composite build ups on 4 teeth. They put a fixed retainer on his upper and lower anteriors with a glob of composite on the back of every tooth and he still has an overbite!!!!!!!!!!!! I am extremely disappointed!!!!!! Maybe if we had a better insurance plan we would have had better treament. It's sad my son has to suffer because of the insurance plan we have. We would have been better off never having any treatment done. Now we have to start the process all over!!!!!! Very disappointed!!!!!

They took my appointment right away for an emergency when my regular dentist was on vacation and I was very pleased. They saved me alot of pain and discomfort. I would highly recommend them.

Dr. Meckler is very friendly. I got braces put on for myself. No pain during treatment. Dr. very attentive. All employees very personable. Dr. Meckler is also my teenage son's dentist.
I would definately recommend to others.

I highly recommend Dr. Meckler and his warm wonderful staff to everyone! Before I met Dr. Meckler I was dental-phobic!!! But he never caused me or my son any pain or anxiety. Every procedure went smoothly and I always felt comfortable in his care. His office is very clean and updated. He is extremely knowledgable and up to date with the latest technology and procedures. I travel over 45 minutes to get to his office but he is well worth the drive!!!!!
About Hygienist: Very friendly, gentle and thorough. Always a pleasure to be in her care. Teeth are alway so clean when she is done, I hate to eat afterwards.

I had a root canal and 3 cavities done at Dr. Meckler's office. The root canal actually went quite well and aside from one painful moment, was relatively pain free. But that's where the good part ends. My 3 cavities were done by dentists other than Dr. Meckler and were far from stellar. One actually had to be re-done 2 days later when part of the filling fell out. Some of his associates would rather flirt with the female assistants than concentrate on your teeth. The facilities were very old and borderline unacceptable. I would not come here again or recommend Dr. Meckler to anyone I know who values their teeth. To make matters worse, the front desk lady who does estimates was grossly wrong on how much my insurance would cover, and I ended up almost three hundred dollars out of pocket as a result. I would have skipped a few procedures had I known this in advance. Her response to me when confronted about this was "sorry". Totally unacceptable and unprofessional.

I've taken both of my children to see Dr. Meckler and they loved him. He is the only dentist that they have ever seen. I've moved from the area but still go back when it's time for a visit.

I cannot say what I really think due to the rules of this site. I would never ever go to this dentist again. Quality of care and response are lacking. The environment and attention are wanting. I think he is competent in skill but customer service and response to pain are poor. Many appointments needed and things redone. Went elsewhere on two occassions to get other opinions.
