Washington Square Dental Group

Dr. Berger is one of the best dentists in New York. I’ve been going to this office for at least 20 years and have never had a bad experience. Courteous and professional staff, reasonable fees, and no one will never ever push you into any procedure you don’t really need. I recommend Dr Berger to all my friends and am really happy I got a chance to publish this review so that other people might get the chance to get the very best dental care.

I’ve been going to Drs. Berger and Horowitz since the 1980s. Would not go elsewhere!

The dentists and hygienists at this office are top notch. My family and I have been seeing Dr Berger and Dr. Horowitz since 1994. They are meticulous, kind, and professional. Fees are reasonable and I have been never felt pushed or manipulated into an expensive procedure.

I’ve been going to Dr. Berger since 1996. Recently my dental insurance changed and I had to go elsewhere in order to take advantage of my insurance. Bad call on my part. I’m going back to Dr. Berger even if it means paying out of pocket. He’s great, Priscilla the hygienist is great and Karen at the front desk is wonderful. 5 stars!

Very well managed, good dentists. They keep their schedule so show up on time! Very good with kids too.

I’ve been going to Dr. Berger for probably 7 – 8 years now. I look forward to my visits (now who can say that!) because of how friendly everyone is — the office staff and hygienists too. Last time I was there the receptionist and I had a long conversation about Depeche Mode and how the Violator album was 20 years old that week, making us feel really, really old. But I digress.
I’ve seen Dr. Berger and sometimes if it’s an emergency I’ll see Dr. Geen or Dr. Horowitz, all of whom are very nice. They aren’t pushy, they don’t rush into things that are costly — xrays, whitening, etc. In fact, I asked about whitening once and they gave me some basic info and approx cost but didn’t push me at all. I’ve never had cosmetic work done there but I have had them repair a cracked filling and do a new cavity.
The office is easy to get to also — right across the street from the house the zombies attacked in I Am Legend — at the corner of Wash Sq Park N. and Fifth Ave.
Bonus — if you have a cavity or need work done, they’ll let you listen to your iPod :)

This place is great. I joined Unilocal just to talk about how great they are. I had a minor orthodontic emergency this morning and when I called, Karen was super helpful and got me an appointment for within the hour. Dr. Berger and all his staff are really professional and accommodating, and even though I don’t have dental insurance, it didn’t even cost as much as I was quoted over the phone. If anyone in New York were going to be my dental care professionals, it’d be these guys.

You know what? They care. They really do care.
Karen at the front desk is awesome, Mary Ellen cleans your teeth with purpose and without a bunch of idle chatter that makes you feel stupid because you can’t answer her with a bunch of tools and suction hoses in your mouth. Dr. Berger is affable, kind, and understanding.
No sales push for orthodontics, whitenings, etc. Just dentistry, and from/​with really frickin nice people.

If you’re looking for a good, honest, solid dentist, Dr Berger is great. So is Dr Horowitz that he shares the office with. The staff is friendly and incredibly helpful. I never feel like they’re taking advantage of me or trying to convince I «need» some sort of procedure.
If you prefer to g to medi-​spas and have your dentist wrap you up in blankets, this is not the place for you. But if you want a good old fashioned teeth scraping with a pleasant smile, Dr Berger is your man.
