Great experience with this dentist !
November 24, 2021Lisa S.Verified patient
Absolutely use them! To be honest I haven't seen a dentist in years before seeing Dr. Esses (Michael) and I was terrified to go. I was pleasantly surprised with my visit head to toe. The secretaries were always pleasant to deal with. The office is clean. I waited only a few minutes. My interaction with the dental hygienist was great and Dr. Esses gives it to you straight. No games no pushing for a procedure you don't need and pricing was fair in my opinion but then again I don't know what other offices charge.

The man
January 14, 2020Cedric S.Verified patient
To begin with, as a seasoned veteran with a vast amount of experience dealing with dentists, I can adamantly tell you that Dr. Michael Esses is a well-trained competent physician who goes well beyond his support boundaries by spending time to make sure that his patients are well-provided for. Additionally, he is not a business-oriented gold-digger, as he certainly recognizes and elucidates his limitations, when he thinks that a specialist is a better option for the required modalities that are necessary. He is a very empathetic person who knows the value of the words "compassionate dentistry."

Best ??Dentist ??Ever ??
November 6, 2019Jeffery W.Verified patient
He’s absolutely wonderful.
November 22, 2018Lina L.Verified patient
I was really done in 10-15 mins. I dont know if its a good thing or not . Normally when i go for deep cleaning it takes atleast 30 mins, but I would definitely recommend him! Very professional stuff were really humble and helpful , and the good thing is if they give you an appointment at 11 or any other time they would see you exactly on time.
