Dr. Epstein is a real Mensch. Now the thing about dentists is (hopefully) they're not the one you spend all your time with but I've had more time probably than most with this good doctor. HIs bedside (chair side?) manner is excellent. He is gentle with the tools, lets you know what he's doing and is happy to explain why and how he's doing things without showing any signs of impatience nor is he condescending. Everything he has done for me has been a complete success with the exception of the fit of a filling which he happily volunteered to fix for free when I mentioned it to him. I didn't even have to ask. Did I mention he's a Mensch? OK, so he's done fillings, implants (5) and routine exams for many years. No complaints. If you need implants I highly recommend him because he was the only office I could find (and I researched many) that would allow me to do all there with one bill. If there is one complaint it's that he constantly pushes cosmetic procedures BUT being objective he's just trying to do what's best for his patients by mentioning what is available and I've seen their results and they are excellent.

About Hygienist: Great all around. Holly is a talker. If you don't like conversation you'll need another hygienist but she is as sweet as the day is long and quick and painless. The front office staff is tops too. The only reason I scored a 3 for facilities is because the furnishings are dated. Clean and comfortable but a bit retro. Nice free coffee machine in the lobby though and great magazine selection (you'll never read them, they see you too fast).

I know this doctor: 10+ years
