Michele The Ithaca office is just rude. I sat for 50 min in an exam room waiting for the dentist. Someone came in after about 15 min but she just grabbed stuff off the counter and left without so much as a smile. 20 more min later I had to grab someone from the hallway to ask if the dentist will need to reschedule with me because my wait had become ridiculous. Im not an unreasonable person. I know doctors, dentists, get behind but AT LEAST COME IN AND SMILE AND SAY "HEY, WERE SORRY FOR THE WAIT, THANKS FOR BEING PATIENT." When the dentist came in and said hello, how are you, I told her I was unhappy for the 50 min delay with no idea what was going on. She said, "well my patient before you had a longer procedure than we thought it would be." Um, okay but tell me! Jesus, acknowledge my presence in this office waiting and waiting. When I got NJ I dont think Ill go back to this.

Ezra Nwemeh This is the first time I’m ever leaving anyone a negative review. 1) I called to schedule an appointment for a cleaning. Before I called, I read so many negative reviews about ASPEN DENTAL but decided to give them the benefit of doubt. 2) When I arrived, they did X-rays and other checks. I asked if I’d be getting the cleaning I came for, and the receptionist said the doctor would decide. The lights and other equipment weren’t working. They performed the exam without lights. 3) The dental hygienist checked my teeth and said they were fine, my bone structure was good, but I needed a cleaning and should start flossing more regularly. 4) The dentist came in, checked again, and told me I needed to remove my wisdom teeth because my gums were covering them. Then she sent me to the office manager to check out and schedule future visits. “Wait, what about my cleaning?” The dentist said the office manager would handle everything. 5) The office manager came back from wherever she had gone, didn’t introduce herself, and went straight to telling me that I’d have to pay $1,200 out of pocket for all the work they recommended. 6) I asked, “Why wouldn’t my insurance cover it if it’s necessary?” She said, “That’s just how it is.” Then she mentioned they offer payment plans to break up the cost. I laughed and said, “I don’t want to pay anything. That’s the whole point.” She then said she could resubmit the request and see if insurance would cover more. I asked if I could call my insurance myself. She printed out the paperwork and handed it to me. 7) I looked at it and said, “But I don’t want any of this work you’ve listed. I came here for a cleaning. How do I get that done?” At this point, she was visibly annoyed and, with a straight face, told me I’d have to pay 60% of the recommended work before they’d do any cleaning. I thanked her for her time, took my paperwork, and left. They need to do better. Your current business model sucks and will only cost you more customers.

Cerulean TL;DR: They chipped two teeth while sloppily filling cavities. Do not go here. I went to Aspen Dental because they were in-network. At my first appointment, they didnt do a cleaning (they were booking many months out), but they did have enough time to tell me about my cavities, scan my teeth, and try to sell me invisalign. When I came back for my cavity fillings (which they were able to book quickly, as they are the real money makers), the experience was uncomfortable. The assistants were young and unprofessional, talking frequently about their personal lives. The dentist—Dr. Aspen—carved out my cavities without too much caution or exactness. She filled them with a composite Ive never had before and then didnt shape them well. I switched dentists and am happy I ended up at Twin Sheep. If you have dental insurance and are worried about going out of network, dont be! The reimbursement process is not difficult, and, after reimbursement, it was cheaper than anything Aspen Dental charged. At my new dentists, they identified two chips next to my new cavity fillings from Aspen Dental—chips from a dental drill that had not been carefully handled. The x-rays I brought with me from Aspen were completely unusable, even though they took so many of them. At Aspen, their machine drifts away from the intended area, so the images are blurry. If I had understood my insurance better, I would have gone somewhere else immediately after the first appointment. The office is uncomfortable; the dental assistants are unprofessional; and Dr. Aspen does not do careful work.

Brittany Winans Found Gorges Dental after shopping around for a new dentist after moving to the area a year ago. I have really bad dental anxiety and was looking for a place with good reviews and a sedation option for more involved dental work. I was having some tooth pain and Dr. Omar was able to get me in for a new patient visit and I we worked on a treatment plan. I got really lucky they had a cancellation right after my appointment and we were able to fill the cavity in the tooth that was giving me problems. Dr. Omar was fantastic and took the time to make sure I was comfortable throughout the whole procedure. I have more work scheduled with sedation but I am grateful I found a dental office that makes me feel comfortable and cared for while in their office. Highly recommend Gorges Dental!

I was so happy with the through job Dr. D. did on my teeth. I explained the problem and he fixed it right away. I was so happy. 100/5.

Julia I put dental care on the back burner while I traveled the world for the last decade, and had my daughter. I finally bit the bullet, pushed past my insane dental anxiety (rough cleanings as a kid + years of orthodontics), and made an appointment with them through a recommendation by a colleague. We had to separate my cleaning into two appointments due to amount of plaque buildup & lack of time), but I made it through and am so happy with my experience. The dentist and hygienist, as well as the front desk staff, were all were so friendly and understanding (thankfully I did not have any decay or cavities under the plaque). It was also surprisingly less costly than I anticipated ($199 for a new patient, $204 for regular cleanings). I highly recommend going to them if you have any level of anxiety with dental work!

Justin Osborn Will be hit or miss as far as what experience youll have. Dr. Rodriguez is a gem and shes amazing. I attended my last appointment on 10/30/24. I informed them I was moving to FL. They asked me the best way to stay in contact. I said email or phone, and made sure they had the correct email on file. 4 months pass, no contact received. No email. No call. No voicemail. No request for an updated address. Nothing. Until 3/10/25, when I get this passive aggressive email. "Your account has a balance of $195.74. Your payment is now overdue. We are assuming that this is the result of an oversight. Your account is over 60 days past due. We have extended credit to you beyond a reasonable time period. We feel it is now necessary to receive a response from you." Shortly after, I discovered they sent a piece of physical mail to an address I told them I was moving from. And continued to insist that this was my fault. But again, no call. No voicemail. No contact other than physical mail to the wrong address, and a passive aggressive email blaming me for it. Im a pretty reasonable person, as I agreed to give them a chance despite the reviews. And with Dr. Rodriguez I had a good experience in the end. But this is disrespectful and bad business. Ithaca really needs better health care. Glad we moved.

Joseph I recently had my first filling at Tompkins Dental, and I was pretty nervous going in. The team was kind and professional, which helped ease my nerves. The procedure itself was quicker than I expected, and while my gums are a little sore afterward, I’m relieved that the issue is fixed. Overall, a good experience, and I appreciate the care they provided. Would recommend!

I had 2 done years ago and there were lots of needles involved! Dr. Ng was really great and so very little hurt that I was amazed and truly grateful!!! She hummed a little while she worked and that was actually soothing too! Have to include Wei in all this also. He was great in making me feel better too; he even gave me a piggy stuffed pillow to hug!!! : )

Caroline Manring I surprised myself by suddenly becoming panicked before the appointment, which I’ve never done before but had to do with previous medical trauma, and the doc and assistant were both incredibly kind, respectful, communicative, and efficient. They put me at ease simply by the clarity of their humanity, skill, and professionalism. Every step was narrated in a concise and accurate way, and special accommodations were made without making me feel stupid or anomalous in any way. They found a hidden cavity we hadn’t expected once they went in and navigated the situation with ease and forthrightness. I am impressed and grateful. Excellent care. Thank you.

Bernadette Fiocca I always receive excellent care at Integrative oral . And I very much appreciate that you have a massage therapist on staff as the foot massages are always helpful with relieving any kind of anxiety during the session. Jen is an excellent hygienist , skillful , gentle and personable . however, I have to tell you I was truly surprised to learn I had two holes in my implant that evidently was catching and storing food particles ...especially since I had visited the office at least a couple times post implants, and no one had mentioned this before! The dentist suggested I have them filled . Then I had sticker shock when I saw that in order to fill these two holes in my implant that it was going to cost me $566 . As a 74 year-old retiree, that is a pretty big chunk of change. I am aware as everyone else that everything is more expensive but is there really nothing you can do (since you don t accept Medicare ) to bring the costs down for seniors ?

meg prichard Dr Ambis, Dotti, and Sara(h)? were exceptional in explaining what was happening, transparent about pricing, consistent with asking for my consent at every step and very kind. I have found my new dentist and even without having insurance that’s applicable to this practice (they do take insurance but mine doesn’t work with their system) I am relieved and honestly excited to have my filling replaced. As I feel safe and cared for at meeting them from the phone call and intake process to the X-rays and thorough explanations.

Mike Elmo I had a root canal and crown done by R. Singh … a few weeks later it started hurting and putting pressure in my sinus and pressure in my eye … I thought it would go away because of the trauma .. but it is still hurting. I called and told them of my pain… They didn’t care ! AND told me it would be 3-4 weeks to even look at his mistake. I finally got an appointment a few weeks later Then I called and told them that I had to go out of town at the scheduled time and asked if they could fit me in on a cancellation ? They never called! Unfortunately HE doesn’t do emergency fixes for his mistakes because HE only works 2 days a week . If you want an unskilled dentist who only works 2 days a week and won’t fix his HUMAN mistakes ( we all make them ) but some of us ethical people do fix our mistakes because we aren’t in it just for the money…

Scott H I was very pleased with my initial appointment at Dr. Zobels practice after my previous long-term dentist had retired. The office staff were all very helpful and efficient, especially with processing insurance paperwork on my behalf, and the waiting room and treatment/exam rooms were all very modern, spacious and comfortable. Dr. Zobel was warm and welcoming, and also very thorough in his exam and review of my past x-rays. Even though this is a busy practice (which is definitely a good sign!) and they didnt anticipate being able to schedule me for a cleaning until a month or two later, Margie at the front desk was able to squeeze me in on the spot due to a last-minute cancellation. Lorrie, the hygienist, was both gentle and thorough, and her cleaning was done in no time.

Liana Sicroff Since Dr. Duthie retired, the practice has been MUCH worse. My retainers have been on forever, the last few scans there has been the same problem, and just at my last appointment they were like hmm maybe we should try attachments, and when I said enthusiastically yes I want them off, they acted like it was the first it has occured to them that I would want to be done with this process. The new doctor has an off putting energy, and ran very behind at my last appointment, which I usually wouldnt make a fuss about, except for the fact that when she got in it looked like she had no idea what was going on.

C T Dr. Duthie and those who worked with him were excellent! The previous front desk person, Carrie (?), was amazing! Very responsive and professional! Since Dr. Duthie retired, the practice has overall declined. Don’t receive the same level of patient care or positive response any longer. Given many excuses now instead of a positive, always here for the patients/customers attitude, that was second nature when Duthie was there. Could always walk in or call with any issues and they would be addressed promptly. Dr. Duthie didn’t think twice giving excellent recommendations to other providers and always answering questions. He even provided his cell phone number at an appointment. Didn’t use it, but still! Always went above and beyond. Really took the time to listen! Could tell that those who worked there were happier at that time too. Much more difficult to get appointments now. Changing the practice to a more limited, 4 day schedule there did not help matters. Even walking in with an issue that would take 5 mins or less to tend to was met with resistance to help. It was tended to, no need for the reluctance to help. Used to be told and encouraged to stop by any time anything was needed. There are still a few remaining good staff there. Consider other practices. If it doesn’t improve, will not be taking my child here if orthodontics are needed. When Dr. Duthie was there I gave many referrals and recommendations to friends. Sorry to say it’s not the case any longer. Hope things improve. We need and deserve an excellent orthodontic practice in our area again.

The waiting area was clean and welcoming—instantly putting me at ease. Every single staff member I encountered was phenomenal. The dental assistants were kind, patient, and attentive, always checking to make sure I was comfortable and informed. It’s clear that this team truly works together with kindness and professionalism at the heart of everything they do. And the dentist—what a gem! So gentle, so compassionate, and incredibly skilled. They took the time to explain everything to me in a way I could understand and answered all my questions without ever making me feel rushed. I felt completely safe and cared for in their hands, which is something I haven’t always felt in the past at other offices. Even the little touches stood out—like checking in on me during the cleaning, making sure I wasn’t in pain, and genuinely listening when I spoke. It’s rare to find a dental office that combines warmth, skill, and professionalism so perfectly, but this one does it effortlessly. I’m beyond grateful to have found such a wonderful team. I can honestly say I’m actually looking forward to my next visit. Highly, highly recommend!

I was supposed to be scheduled for major work there today, but they told me while I was sitting there they weren’t going to do it so I’m not even sure why they brought me in in the first place.

Dominic Tribelli Came here as a first-time patient today, and was left disappointed and frustrated. The front desk did not greet me when looking to check in and avoided eye-contact, and had the same experience with the check out desk. I also completed about 30 minutes worth of paperwork online the day before my appointment and was told to complete this lengthy paperwork again while waiting. While the nurse and Dr. B were kind and professional, after the procedure I was left waiting in the patient room for 35 minutes without being told or guided to check out and I eventually left. I also was told to go to other facilities for work I must get done that could oddly not be done here (one being an x-ray, which even urgent cares have these), especially within the two hour duration of time I spent here. For the two hours I did spend here, it feels like nothing was accomplished as my reasons for coming in were not addressed. Disappointing experience.

Barry Derfel They have become negligent and unresponsive. I was a well-cared for patient, who trusted this practice, for over 20 years. They had helped me through s number of serious health issues with compassion and professional expertise. Not anymore! Since the practice was taken over and a number of doctors & nurses have retired, the quality of care has been abysmal. For example, my new doctor barely looked up from the computer during my first physical with him, and a second time, while I explained my concerns about a significant health concern, I had to stop talking and wait three or four seconds for him to notice and actually look at me to see what I was pointing to. I have talked to many other patients who have had similar experiences. In addition, we patients are routinely being told that no appointments are available for two to three months, when calling with flu-like symptoms, dizziness, or similar issues, and we are consistently told instead that we should "go to the ER if we need care." Rather than patient phone calls being returned in kind, the practice texts us portal messages, usually a week or two later, with vague or trite responses. Those front office staff who have remained are still professional and courteous with patients, but it seems they are not in a position to elicit more appropriate, timely, and thoughtful care from the providers. I have communicated my concerns directly to my doctor, the office manager, front office staff, and the Cayuga Health patient advocate staff. Nothing has changed for the better.

Kristen Dean Where do I begin? When I arrived the lady at the desk was very nice, she checked me in and I didn’t have to wait long to be called back. Before I could sit in the chair, a dental assistant from another room was calling the assistant who was seating me, over to her chair. She reminded her of the charges for today’s visit and that I needed to confirm that I knew about the price (which I did and it was fine). I sat in my chair and the assistant was answering my questions, Dr. Sammi came into the room. He said hello and began to lean my chair back. This is where things get strange and uncomfortable for me. Dr. Sammi laid my chair all the way back so far that my head was lower than my body which was not comfortable. Then he looked in my mouth and seemed confused so he turned to his computer screen. He wasn’t sure which tooth he was going to be working on and the assistant from the other room came over to help him. Long story short, We confirmed the details of today’s visit and he turned back around to look in my mouth again. Without explaining anything he reached behind him and grabbed the needle! No numbing gel on a qtip or even a “little pinch” warning. NOTHING. Immediately after that Dr. Sammi grabbed some sort of long metal tool and mallet, said this is going to be a bit loud and began tapping away (what felt pretty aggressively) on my crown he was removing. I stopped him! I asked what he was doing and he said he had to get the old crown off. I told him that was not how the process was explained to me and that I was told they would use a saw type tool to cut the crown in half and peel it away gently to protect the tooth underneath. He said oh no, that would take too long. I said I am not comfortable with this at, I will go elsewhere. Now, I’m not a complainer and had it not been so quick, cold, and aggressive , I may have actually tolerated that removal process but this Dr. clearly didn’t care to explain the process or ask how I was feeling or anything! As I sat in my car crying he came out to his car which was right next to mine. He hopped in and flew out of the parking lot. It seemed as though he clearly had somewhere to be other than at that office today. Wilson Dental doesn’t have a bad reputation to begin with but I had a good experience in the Waverly office so I thought maybe it would be okay. I was very wrong and I will never go back! I highly recommend anyone getting dental work done to find another office that’s in network or to do as I am and pay for good service out of network.

mike smith I appreciate Marc Purdy for his attention to comfort and a painfree experience. He has gone out of the way to make me happy when a set of partials were unsatisfactory, not due to him, but due to my own discomfort with the properly built partial. His staff is friendly and knowledgeable as well. Jamie is a good example of this.

Maureen Gilroy I highly recommend Dr.Marc Purdys dental practice. Dr. Purdy, Dr Ania and all of the dental hygienists- especially Jamie are quality professionals. My family and I have had wonderful care from Dr. Purdy and his team for over 10 years. My experience today with Jamie, the dental hygienist was wonderful. She made sure I knew what was happening for every step of my appointment and put me completley at ease during a crown procedure. Jamie checked often to make sure I was comfortable during the whole appointment. So lucky to have this practice in our community!

Rigel Lochner Ive been visiting Dr. Marcs office since I moved to the area in 2017, and have been impressed with the quality of care since day one. Dr. Marcs approach to dental care is cutting-edge, constantly staying up-to-date on the science and techniques that create better outcomes for patients. The staff are excellent, take the time to listen to concerns, and do what they can to ensure youre taken care of and comfortable. I cant overstate the level of professionalism and expertise among everyone there. Aside from dental care, Dr. Marc and team also specialize in orthodontics. It took a few years to convince myself to do it, but Ive been happy with the process since the beginning. Any time issues have come about from my orthodontics (as they do), the team has been quick to schedule a time to address any problems or concerns.

Mariena Silvestry Ramos Switched dentists as Dr Billiot took over Dr Bonapartes practice. I LOVE going to the dentist and this is a great practice. Friendly assistants and hygienists. I love Beth. Dr Billiot is super friendly and explains everything in detail. Shes very careful and thorough. Its easy to get to from work and usually theres parking in the back. If not, there are usually a couple of spots out front (for a fee). Dr Billiot offers mini implants which are way less invasive and quicker to heal than traditional dental implants if needed.

Brian VanGo They got me in right away for a dental emergency when my own dentist could not. Everyone was very friendly and professional. I felt very comfortable and Dr Billiot did a remarkable job with the shot not hurting, and the procedure being smooth and effective. I may be switching dentists.

Linnea Tom Titus Hannah, my hygienist, is one-of-a-kind. So kind, lovely, professional, thoughtful, and skilled at her work. I actually look forward to my teeth cleaning twice a year, given her warmth!! And Dr. Billiot is fabulous. Highly skilled at what she does. You feel you are in good hands. Id recommend this practice to anyone!

Aisha Okala Very pleased with the care that Dr. Billiot and her team provided. We had a lip and tongue tie revision on our 5 week old. His feeding has improved significantly. I would highly recommend Untied Dental for lip and tongue tie revisions.

Tyler Schouten Everyone is extremely kind and professional. We left every appointment with confidence in what to do when we returned home and we’re always eager to come back to our next appointment. We will definitely be returning for more appointments and will recommend this office to anyone needing the same work as us or dental work in general. Thank you so much to the staff and we look forward to being back!

Joseph Cox Several years ago, I went to this office once. An older, female dentist told me I had twelve cavities. I thought it was strange that I had no pain or sensitivity. The office tired to get me to take out care credit, in addition to my dental insurance, and schedule several visits to fill twelve cavities. Very soon after I moved to Lowell, MA and saw a dentist right away. He found zero cavities. I continued to see him for 5 years, and he only ever found one cavity. Im still angry when I think about how Achati Dental tried to swindle me.

ThePlantDoctorr If I could give zero stars I would, but alas. I had a root canal done here in 2019 and it seemingly was successful. For a year, things went fine but then I began experiencing pain in the tooth that was treated (and should not be able to feel pain in). I was told that the sporadic pain was normal. So it went another year and the pain came back more intensely. I went back and they did a variety of scans and x-rays which they said they wouldn’t charge me for, only to slap me with an emergency fee. They told me they would call me back after they’ve looked over the scans, and they never called. After three weeks I had to call THEM back. They told me they found an extra canal that they missed. They drilled into my tooth several times, told me that the issue wasn’t the extra canal, and continued to prescribe me antibiotics, which would work for a few weeks and the pain/infection continued to return. It got to the point of an abscess around my tooth and the inside of it bleeding. They finally told me that they would do another root canal for free, only to switch up the next day and tell me that I’d be paying full price. I said I couldn’t afford this, so let’s pull the tooth. How much will that be? They responded, $800-1,000. I called another location downtown who only charged me $250 for the extraction and told me that the tooth wasn’t worth saving (and was definitely infected when they removed it). Just so everyone knows if they don’t already, most dentists will retreat a failed root canal for free. Other issue: They will randomly cancel your appointments, even the day of with no explanation besides, “The doctors aren’t in today.” This has happened several times. Like another reviewer said, there are a lot of better options. Good luck!
