I cannot recommend Dr. Punim to anyone due to the poor judgement she and her office used when referring my son to her husband, Dr. Daniel Levin, to have his 4 baby teeth extracted to prepare for braces. I trusted Dr. Punim so readily agreed to take my son next door to her oral surgeon husband for treatment. Had I read the Yelp reviews on him prior that called him a BUTCHER, I never would have taken my son there. It was only because I trusted Dr. Punim that I did not check up on Dr. Levin prior to going. That was a big mistake. He did not follow the agreed upon course of treating my son via IV sedation. He, on his own, decided to completely disregard that and extract 4 teeth from my little 8 year old son's mouth while he was awake and barely numbed up. My son is now completely traumatized and says that was THE WORST DAY OF HIS LIFE. Shame on you Dr. Punim for not caring enough about your patient's physical and emotional well being. You know your husband's bad reputation and yet still, you put an 8 year old boy through irreversible trauma due to your greed.
