Dr. Shriftman and Nancy the hygienist were fantastic. I am petrified of the dentist but they made my experience as stress free and painless as possible. By far the best dental experience I have had.

His services are pricey and they don't take insurance. My granddaughter needed a root canal and crown. We were able to get an appointment within 2 days. There was no waiting for the dentist. My granddaughter was extremely pleased with the services.

My first appointment with Dr. Schriftman was yesterday, I was scared and nervous, but he was very nice and understanding. His bedside manner was great, he didn't make me feel bad about my situation, I left happy and glad to have him as my dentist.

I am so scared of the dentist and avoided one for so long. Dr. Schriftman makes me feel comfortable, talks through the procedure with me. His staff is always so nice, accommodating and pleasant especially Victoria. The office is clean. Overall the best dentist I have ever had.

Great Dentist. I went here about a year ago. My teeth were bothering me. He was able to take me as a walk in and fixed me up.

Dr. Schriftman is an excellent dentist -- gentle, sympathetic, and very aware of causing as little pain as he possibly can. I'd recommend him to anyone. The office is also clean and comfortable.

So why only 3 stars? Two reasons: First, the emergency dentist designation is a little misleading. If you have an actual emergency after 2 pm Friday through Sunday, you're out of luck. until the following day. Second, while the doctor does great work, his prices are sky-high. A tooth extraction shouldn't cost almost $600 unless it was highly complicated. So one has to temper a good dentist
