Mordechai M Hoschander , DMD

I can’t say enough about Dr. Hoschander. A few weeks ago I suffered a mandibular (jaw) fracture. I wasn’t sure what it was at first. I had gone to the emergency room at my local hospital where it was first diagnosed but they sent me off with the wrong doctor’s information and a cd of my cat scan which was unreadable. A friend of mine recommend that I go see Dr. Hoschander. He took my call Sunday night and due to the severity of my injury made time for me first thing Monday morning. After taking a few x-​rays he needed to see a cat scan and he took me down himself to the facility. Once the scan was done to save time he did not wait for them to download it onto a cd, he came back down and took a look at it. The diagnosis was severe and he recommended surgery. Usually in moments like this I would have thought to panic or be fearful, but seeing the care Dr. Hoshander was taking in my situation I felt calm and comfortable and agreed to have the surgery. Right way he called NYP lower manhattan hospital of which he is Director of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. He was able to instantly schedule surgery for the same day. When I arrived at the hospital, there was already a doctor expecting me and I was well taken care of. I arrived around 2 or 3pm and was told I would go into surgery at 8pm. However, once Dr. Hoshander arrived he was able to get an operating room and get his team ready. I did not have spend the day waiting, we went into surgery around 5pm. Before heading in he explained to me everything that was about to take place. The operation itself went smoothly and I felt no unexpected discomfort or pain after. When I was in the room, I reached out to him with some simple questions and he responded to me right away. I feel extremely lucky to have met Dr. Hoschander in my time of need. This was the first surgery I’ve ever had and because of his attention and kind spirit I was calm and comfortable the entire time. I couldn’t imagine going through this with anyone else in charge. If your reading this and you need to see an oral specialist, don’t think twice call Dr. Hoschander’s office and make the appointment.
p. s. I am still recovering from the surgery, and continue to meet with the doctor on a weekly basis. His care and service continue to be exceptional.

very money minded practice. They will force you into an extra visit and will tell you that there’s no payment for the unnecessary followup. But when you show up they WILL charge a co-​pay. When i protested claiming that they said otherwise they said that they don’t recall mentioning anything. There are 2 girls at the front desk and both were present on both occasions. They just acted ignorant. When i said that i will report it as insurance fraud, they agreed to immediately return my $ 50 that they charged on the 2^nd visit.
Sounds like a crook operation to me. Dont be fooled by the Doctors background.

office staff as well as dr hoschander are very unprofessional. avoid this dentist at all costs

Can you be a fan of an oral surgeon when you know you’re going to them for a painful dental procedure? I didn’t think it was possible, but it is. Dr. Hoschander took out one of my wisdom teeth a few months ago, and the procedure was quick and painless. I was awake, and both he and the assistant talked me through it before starting, as well as tried to make me feel relaxed during the extraction (which was impossible knowing what they were about to do to me, but I appreciated the effort!) When my next wisdom tooth started to bug me and needs to come out, I’ll definitely be going back to Dr. Hoschander.

I came in today for 4(!) wisdom teeth extractions. Dr Hoshander and his staff were very nice! I was in super quick and the extraction started right away. I was awake for the procedure but was given Nitrous Oxide. I didn’t feel any pain and the whole procedure went PERFECTLY. 12 hours post surgery and I still have very little pain and swelling. I would recommend Dr Hoschander to anyone needing a Maxillofacial Surgeon. He was great and he is definitely an expert!
