LOVE this dentist office. From the SUPER friendly front staff at the desk, to the dental assistants to ALL the doctors. I've seen at least 3 doctors so far and they are so warm welcoming, they educate you on your entire mouth. They make you feel so comfortable and not ashamed for any reason. This is my new home dentist office!

He is personable and makes you comfortable. I highly recommend. I sought out a Dentist for my son and now I think the whole family will be seeing Dr. Massiah.
Verified patient
The dental staff is great! However, reception could have confirmed with the dentist if I should have been charged for a previous visit. Turns out, I should not have been charged. Overall, I would recommend Dr Massiah as your dentist!
Verified patient
Dr Massiah and Souirette both make you feel comfortable before and during the process. Keep you updated on where you are, provided graphic pictures and tell you exactly what they are going to do. You never feel at a loss with what is happening. Great experience overall.
Verified patient
Amazing service all around - I get very nervous about dentist appointments but everyone was so lovely and explained everything that was happening. A really lovely team and honestly the best I could hope for a trip to the dentist!
Verified patient
They were extremely friendly and in no rush. they gave me all the attention I needed and answered every question I had. I am getting a second opinion because their prognosis was serious and the cost of work will be several thousand out of pocket. That said, they are the easiest going dentists I have ever been to.
Verified patient

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Massiah’s for more than 8 years now and he and his staff have provided me excellent care in that time.
Verified patient
It was my first time at this office and it went really well! Dr. Massiah and Soeurette, the hygienist, were both amazing and had great bed-side manners. Soeurette did such a thorough job with the cleaning and would explain every single step to you. Every single person there was very nice. They also follow a strict safety protocol which is extremely important during these COVID-19 times.
Verified patient
Extremely professional with high tech rays where the patient can actually see their cavities! Dr. Massiah & her very competent assistant worked seamlessly well. It was a pleasure and it wasn’t painful at all. Mission accomplished ! Highly recommend Dr. Massaih
Verified patient
Best dental experience I've had in my life, from reception to cleaning to Dr. Massiah. They run a tight, high tech ship with HD pics of teeth, explanations of what needs to be done right away and what could wait. I don't have to go to another dentist.
Verified patient
Pleasant and courteous staff. I was actually happy to be there, Dr Massiah provided much needed guidance on how to proceed with my dental issues. I’ll be back and I highly recommend.
Amazing team! Very caring and professional.
Both Dr Massiah and Soeurette the Hygientist were incredibly attentive and thorough during my entire visit. They explained what has going to happen during each procedure. The ladies at reception/ office managers took care of all of my questions with ease. Thanks for being my new general dentistry practice!
Verified patient
I recently visited New York to attend my son's graduation, and on my second evening there my front tooth broke off and fell out! I was mortified to think of spending my week there with no front tooth, meeting my son's friends and mentors. I was 9 hours from home and my own dentist and needed to find emergency medical care--on a weekend no less. Dr. Messiah came to my rescue. I called and he got back to me immediately, went out of his way to make me feel relaxed, and saw me right away. The appointment was painless and I felt like I was in good hands. My tooth was restored and my week in NY went on as planned. Dr. Messiah is wonderful, he is a talented dentist and has a great "bedside' manner. I highly recommend him. Also, his entire staff is a lovely group of people, helpful, capable, and kind. Thank you, all!! Nancy

I really enjoyed my visit with Dr. Massiah. He really does do it differently. The entire staff was very welcoming and incredibly professional. Dr. Massiah has an incredible bedside manner, spent a lot of time with me to address my questions and my issues. I've never had an experience like this before. Definitely recommending Dr. Massiah to friends.
Verified patient
Dr Massiah was excellent! He was friendly, efficient, and explained everything clearly. I would definitely recommend him and his practice.
Verified patient
I loved both visits with Dr. Massiah's office, though I didn't see him directly either time - once he was out and I saw his fill-in who was wonderful, and the other time was a cleaning so I saw the dental hygienist and Dr. Massiah for a moment. Everyone in the office is lovely and I highly recommend it.
Verified patient
Excellent!
Verified patient
First I want to say my husband have been a patient over to Dr. Messiah for over 10 years and is always satisfy with his service. I finally book my first appt. after 8 years. The entire staff was very professional and friendly. The service was great and informative. You can tell that they take their job serious and want nothing but the best for their clients. Also, one advice , I highly suggest for you to fill out the paperwork before your visit it makes the process quick and fast, if you are not sure about something they will adjust the paperwork for you when you go in.
Verified patient
Amazing dentist and his team is awesome!!
Verified patient
Dr. Massiah was a good doctor, however, I was unhappy with how his office handled various things. I asked for my dental scans and pictures to be sent to me and it took them four days to send it. I had to call back multiple times before I got both. I was also not informed that I was out of network even though the front desk manager told me she knew a day before my appointment that I would be charged an extra 10% copay.
