Barry Witt, DDS

I’ve «been with» Barry for about fifteen years now and I can’t imagine going to any other dentist.
Completely non-​judgmental, gentle, and just an all-​around wonderful guy. Never a hint of an upsell.
Highly recommended.

I started going to Dr. Witt about 2 years ago when I was fed up with searching for a dentist (after «trying out» 3 horrible ones and started to have a phobia of the dentist which I never had before) and my friend suggested Dr. Cohen (part of the same practice).
I went to Dr. Cohen who is wonderful! He spent a great amount of time with me on the initial visit, gave me the facts about my mouth, noticed little things that no dentist had ever told me before and I had noticed over the years (very, very observant!!). He laid out a plan for me for things I needed to have done with pricing and order of importance. I felt NO pressure to get the list completed and was not pressured into making appointments for the items. That was the first time I experienced that at the dentist! He even sent me a little card after my first visit welcoming me (very nice touch!!).
Then I had to have a tooth pulled and Dr. Cohen was not available so Dr. Witt did the job. I was extremely fearful and had not had any kind dental work (other than cleanings) for many, many years because of a dentist who always use dental dams when doing fillings, etc and made me choke and then would scold me about it (!). I told Dr. Witt about this and he said that he does not use dental dams because they make people choke (yay!).
Through the whole procedure he kept asking how I was, he did anything he could to make the experience better for me and really, really cared about not making me have a bad experience. He explains everything he is doing and tells you in detail what is happening.
Although I would equally recommend Dr. Cohen and would totally go back to him if Dr. Witt was unavailable — I just bonded with Dr. Witt over that extraction. He is very mild mannered and soft spoken and Dr. Cohen is a very outgoing «big» personality who is equally friendly.
Another thing I love about this practice — I don’t know about you, but many dentists tend to be able to make me feel like a 10 year old kid when they ask if I have been flossing. Often times I am bad about flossing. This last time, I just straight up told Dr. Witt that I have been very lax in my flossing. He just said «let’s take a look». No lectures about flossing, nothing. So great. He makes me WANT to floss (LOL).
So, I think the practice is fabulous in that way. Most people who go here are going to prefer one of those two dentists and they are both incredibly smart, caring, amazing dentists! Go HERE! :)
Only down side — check your insurance. Sometimes they ask you to pay up front with certain insurance plans and then get reimbursed by your insurance company (my friend has to do this, but is happy to do it for such great dentists). With my insurance company I do not.

Dentists are like a good hairstylist, if they move locations you have to follow them like children behind the Pied Piper. Barry Witt has been my dentist for years, and one of my all time favorites! He has recently landed at Post Street Dental, which is a nice, newly remodeled office. Their waiting area is open and spacious, and their staff is really nice.
I highly recommend Barry and look forward to visiting him in this gorgeous building!
