Undoubtedly the best endodontist in the Philadelphia area and I would recommend him highly to anyone who is nervous about endodontic treatment. I have had three teeth treated by Dr Brothman, two lower jaw molars, and an upper molar, and he was extremely gentle. Prior to being referred to Dr Brothman, I had a very painful root canal performed by another practicioner and was certain the experience would be repeated. I was wrong. Dr Brothman is a master at what he does and the entire experience was really pain-free. He is gentle, efficient and very knowledgeable. His staff is pleasant, and very accommodating; I was seen immediately after calling his office for the first time. While there are other endodontists in my area, I would happily drive the 20 miles to his office if ever I needed another tooth treated.
