Lieberman Larry, DDS PA

I’m new in town and I chose this dentist based on his Unilocal reviews. Unfortunately I did not have a 5 star experience. I only gave him 2 stars because his office is clean and he has a really nice staff.
I’m going to start out saying that I have VERY straight teeth and I whiten them every 6 – 8 months. I also have had only ONE very tiny cavity that was filled a couple years ago. I have gone to the dentist every 6 months religiously since I was a kid. I’ve always been proud of my teeth because they are in such great shape. My old dentist even said he wish he could swap teeth with me.
I went for what I thought was a cleaning but it was an initial consultation. No cleaning. I went through the regular X-​rays and exam. At the end I was told by Larry that I have 8 cavities, need a retainer or braces, whitening, veneers, and spaces filled in. Then I got a bill for $ 170. I don’t have insurance since I have never needed a lot of work done. That’s more than both of my cleanings at my old dentist’s office, including x-​rays and all the fancy equipment. Plus my old place gave me a free fitted mouthpiece and whitening gel.
His assistant was even trying to stop him and looked at me apologetically. He kept saying how he couldn’t sleep if he didn’t tell me that I needed all of this. Maybe he couldn’t sleep if he didn’t drain my pocketbook. I’m not sure. Either way I cancelled my next appointment for a cleaning and I’ll find somewhere else to go.
Tip for next time — don’t overwhelm new patients with a ton of expensive procedures that they don’t need. If you see they need a cavity filled, let them know (because it’s important) and maybe bring up the other stuff later on when they are comfortable with you.

If I could give more than the maximum 5 stars, I would.
After having lived and worked in Manhattan for the better part of 28 years, I thought it would be difficult, in the least, to find a dentist in Pinellas County, such as the professionals that I have hired in NYC. Upon my friend’s recommendation, I obtained an appointment with Larry Lieberman. I can honestly say ‘Move over Manhattan dentists’ as I’ve not met anyone more comprehensive than Dr. Lieberman. Anyone.
My consultation lasted about 3 hours. Thorough through and through – with an arresting smile that put any of my fears to sleep, Dr. Lieberman is just simply talented at his art form – and, with him it is an art form. His passion is evident – he sincerely wants to see you smile – with a beautiful smile!
I cannot believe I’m actually looking forward to the work that needs to be done. But I can say that I’m fully confident that it’ll be done right, expertly and pleasantly. Kudos to his staff as well, as they made me feel as though I was one of the family!

Dr Lieberman has been my dentist for 30 years. His professionalism never ceases to amaze me. Not only is he a master diagnostician, but his treatment is gentle, effortless, and his staff is always kind and efficient. The most unique thing about Dr Lieberman’s practice is how he runs his office. He NEVER keeps you waiting in the waiting room more than 5 minutes. He schedules he patients far enough apart, so you never feel rushed and he treats you in a timely fashion.
I believe Dr Lieberman takes the kind of pride in his practice that one would wish on the entire medical profession!

I give larry and his staff ten stars best office personal in the business and a hand full of great careing assistants love going to the dentist now

I was recommended to Dr. Lieberman by my dentist in SCC, my last residence. I cannot thank them enough for that recommendation.
I am truly a dentiphobe! I try to convince myself about new technology and the usual, but I am great at putting logic aside and being irrationally fearful. That is until I came to Dr. Larry. He is incredibly talented and hard working. He and his staff are caring, compassionate and professional. His office is spotless. The equipment is the latest and high tech. Their concern for each patient is evident. I am looking forward to my Lieberman smile. If I have anything to do with it, Dr. Lieberman will be my dentist for the rest of my life. Everything possible is done to ensure that your visits are comfortable in every way possible. I just can’t say enough about how grateful I am to have found Dr. L and his staff .
A neighbor who was driving me home one day remarked that she had never seen so many great smiles in one place.

Great practice, great staff and a talented perfectionist as a dentist! Best dentist I’ve ever been to! My crowns are gorgeous and matched perfectly. Dr. Lieberman explains everything, listens empathetically, and respects my input. Appointments were given immediately for my emergency and future appointments were made to convenience my schedule. I just can’t say enough positive things about this dentist and dental practice! :)

Best dentist I have ever had, innovative in approach.
Best dental care in the tampa bay area.

Clean, friendly and professional. I hate going to the dentist. I turn into a big stress ball. But the entire staff made my visit a near pleasure. Don’t dread the dentist anymore.

Dr. Lieberman saves the day!!!
I was eating with some friends last Friday and took my first and last bite of my lunch. I had a cracked filling that needed repaired and I kept putting it off (work & holidays). Well, it finally broke and took part of my tooth. Yes… OUCH! My nerve was exposed and I was freaking out! I called Dr. Lieberman’s office about 2:00 expecting a recoding and hoping to get an emergency number for an emergency dentist. Dr. Lieberman’s office is closed on Friday. To my surprise, Dr. Lieberman answered the phone :) He wasn’t working but, there to tie up some loose ends for the week. He asked me to come by the office so he could fix my tooth within that day. He called me on Saturday… yes Saturday, to make sure I was ok and in no pain. Need I say more?!! What an amazing person he is! He truly loves what he does and he is the best! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Tampa bay is so lucky to have Dr. Lieberman! I learned my lesson! Take care of your teeth NOW!!!

DISCLAIMER: I am Dr. Lieberman’s son, but told my Dad I would post a letter he received yesterday from one of his patients. This patient requested the letter be posted on Unilocal,but did not know how to post himself.
«I am deaf and have been one of his proud (clients/​patients) for over 25 years. Each time I visit his office I get smiles and am treated with respect.
Then the most remarkable person who will ever occupy a dentist’s body, Dr. Lieberman, greets me in the comfortable dentist chair. I am surrounded by all the most up to date advances in dentistry and I trust him with my teeth as much as I trust any doctor with my health.
I am a public speaker and each time I open my mouth the evidence is there for all to see. I feel I would be missing out on one of life’s great experiences if I didn’t go to him for regular check-​ups.
His sense of humor and the fact we are both loyal New York Yankee baseball fans is an experience I will not find anywhere else.
In closing let me say for all your dental needs there is not a more perfect place than 35 691 US19 N, Palm Harbor, FL.»
