Dr. Teichman is the best dentist in Brooklyn ? bar none! After a decidedly un-gentle experience at Gentle Dental in the Slope, Dr. Teichman was recommended to me by a colleague. I could tell things would be different right from the beginning ? the kind receptionist made my appointment easily ? and they?re open on Saturdays! Then, when I arrived, I was greeted by comfortable, modern furniture, a large LCD television, and another kind receptionist. Best of all, unlike at most other healthcare appointments in this city, I was seen within five minutes of arrival.\r

This high level of customer service continued throughout the cleaning. The hygienist was extremely friendly and took the time to get to know me better before starting. She was very thorough, going far above and beyond the perfunctory 10-minute scrapings I?ve received elsewhere. But she was also sensitive to my needs, stopping to make sure that I was comfortable. And at the conclusion of the cleaning, she gave me great advice on home hygiene without making me feel guilty.\r

Finally, the terrific experience concluded with a visit from Dr. Teichman. Waiting no longer than a few minutes to see him, he went over my X-rays with me, showing me exactly how my teeth were doing on the high-tech monitor installed in the room. Just as friendly as his staff, he spent some time learning more about me, explained my options clearly, and gave me full confidence that my teeth were in good hands!\r

All in all, I couldn?t have asked for a better trip to the dentist.
Pros: Convenient schedule, Thorough cleanings, High-tech equipment, Great bedside manner
Cons: Why can't other healthcare appointments be this good???
