I went to Dr. Gitelman to have two of my wisdom teeth removed. they were both impacted and causing me a lot of pain. From the very first consultation Dr Gitelman was very sweet and kind. Very reassuring and confident. Told me how long the procedure would take and all the risks involved. And he was true to his word. i was in and out of the office in 25 minutes. The extraction was easy breezy, especially for impacted teeth. I have had my other teeth removed by another doctor and the whole process was infernal. I had expected to be in pain after the surgery based on my previous experience. But nothing! Very minimal swelling. Only very little dull pain on the second day. AND I only took two of the codeine I was prescribed. I would recommend him to anyone that needs need this procedure done. After the surgery I wanted to hug him! but that wouldn't be appropriate.
