Hazel Family Dental Care

Friendly staff and doctor. Got me in for tooth pain prior to my appointment and got me in for a cleaning in the spot of a cancelation. Good thorough cleaning not a half ass get in, get out, like my previous dentist. Nice goodie bag with a full size toothpaste. Glad I found them

I had a filling done and it was filled so much that I could not floss my teeth. So I went back and had the dentist redo it. He gave me a numbing agent then went and took care of someone else. He came back in about 20 minutes and started drilling. Well the numbing agent had worn off. When I waved at him he did not respond. I sat there with tears rolling down my face while he drilled with NO NOVACAINE for a half hour. It was the most pain I have ever been in. When he was done and told him what happened he said I should have let him know, well and did and he did not stop! I will never go there again.

Not sure how the dentist is but the office could use some fine tuning. I waited 3 weeks for my apt only to get there and it’s was rescheduled for 3 weeks later. A curtesy call would have been appreciated.

Dr. Gontarski and his staff are not only good at what they do, they are friendly and make you feel welcome. I have nothing bad to say about my experience. It is easy to get an appointment, the price is more than fair and I have not experienced any pain or discomfort during any procedures. If you have experienced the up-​selling some dentist do, you won’t experience it here. Dr. Gontarski makes his recommendations and provides a plan to improve your smile and nothing more. If you are looking for a friendly dentist, look no further.

I have been coming to Dr. Gontarski’s office for over 8 years, and if anyone were to ever ask how I like it, I couldn’t enjoy another dentist more.
The location is right off of Hazel avenue which makes it very convenient getting to and being in route to work or home. They are willing to do early morning (7am) appointments, as well as Saturdays to fit the busiest of schedules.
I have recommended Dr. Gontarski’s practice to quite a few people who have mentioned that they are looking for another dentist, and they have been very pleased since.
