Dr.Pavel is a very
good dentist who goes he extra mile. He is very knowledgeable and has OLD SCHOOL ethics. I come from Staten Island on the wonderful Belt Parkway to Long Island ..he is that good .

Dr. Pavel is amazing. Very straight forward (with no upselling), which is a relief these days as most of these dental practices are becoming Private Equity owned and bottom lien driven.
Great bedside manner with quick and efficient appointments. I wouldn't trade him for the world.
