out of Read Reviews for Dr. Ellen Polsky
People cannot "fake" liking kids-Dr. Polsky is the real deal! My daughter needed surgery, which terrified me. Dr. Polsky was able to listen to my concerns and offer me sound advice. She was insistant that my child had an extensive medical evaluation, prior to surgery, to ensure her saftey in the procedure. My child needed crowns and Dr. Polsky explained that she could put white ones in, but they would be more expensive and most likely not as durable, due to my daughter's age, she recommended stainless steel. This was to ensure that my daughter did not need repeat work. After the surgery, Dr. Polsky gave me, the scared mother, a huge hug and told me my baby was well! She is so sweet with my daughter, my huband and I have decided she is the only dentist for our children! I will definately recommend her to all of my friends and family. Based upon our experiences, she is the very best!

I wish our family had never chosen this dentist. Upon first meeting her she briefly said her name then asked him to open his mouth very sternly and when he didn’t she didn’t try to loosen him up or make him laugh but instead held down his head and shoved a plastic wedge in his mouth. He then became very frightened and started thrashing so she just held him down further. I must say he had just opened his mouth perfectly for the very nice dental assistant. I was in shock!
She then finished the exam like everything was perfectly normal and sent him to x-ray where he was completely worked up. After working with the nice xray lady we found out he had a large cavity they hadn’t caught before that would need a cap. This meant he would need to be put under (asleep). Since the procedure was really needed I didn’t change dentists as I figured he would be asleep and wouldn’t even see her but boy was I wrong. Not only did we wait in the dental office for 4 hours to have the procedure but she opened his mouth too wide and never lubricated it so it was swollen, torn and bleeding. Then 4 months later the cap failed and our new dentist said his gums had filler under his gums from last procedure which was irritating them.
