I've had many procedures done by Dr. Stern in his Forest Hills office, and all were very successful & pain free. He is very sensitive to patient needs (stops & lets you relax or rinse whenever you're uncomfortable). Also tells you what he's doing and how long each part of a procdure will take.
I've had 2 broken crowns fixed, one root canal, 3 cavities, and one bridge made by him - all were comfortable and successes. I've dealt with terrible dentists for years, so very happy to have found someone reliable. Also he has night hours which are really helpful, I go after work.
He takes most insurances. Enjoy!
