Edward J Dooley, DMD

I have been a patient of Dr. Dooley for more then 25 years. My family has come here and we all just love Dr. Dooley. He is all about the patient. I have had my teeth straightened, crowns, you name it. He and his staff are all very friendly and caring.

I went for a Invisilig/​Clear Correct consultation and I didn’t like how it went.
I was quoted around $ 6,500. When I told him other consultations were much lower he told he was shocked that was possible. We decided to send impressions out to get a better idea of treatment plan and price. What I found weird was every time I asked whether I would be getting Invisilign or clear correct I kept being told they were «the same thing» even though they are completely different companies and trays. Didn’t give me anything in writing, either.
Didn’t hear back on impressions, so I called them. Was promised a call back at lunch time. Didn’t get it. Got a call the next day with very vague information. I called again and was told Dr. Dooley would call by end of the day. Never got call. I sent 3 Facebook messages (Thurs, Fri, Sat). I can see they were read, but never even responded to me.
I was told that they heard back about my impressions, but again, vague information. They couldn’t tell me a definite treatment time period and still couldn’t give me a clear price (even though the impressions were supposed to give me BOTH). The ENTIRE point of sending the impressions out was to get an accurate timeline and price. I asked for dentist to call me and they said they couldn’t give me a day he could call because he has a lot of patients and short lunches. What kind of response is that? (How about the END of the day?)
UPDATE:
A few hours after posting this review I finally got a response from the Dentist (an email) — declining me as a patient! Quote «It has become evident that the trust and cooperation necessary to complete a case like yours would be difficult to establish with you».

My visit to Dr. Dooley’s office was my first visit to a dental office in years, my last visit being a painful trip to an Army Dentist for which I had a negative experience and came out with one less tooth than I came in. That in mind, I had little to compare my recent visit with.
I had found Dr Dooley’s office through Zocdoc, an online service that searches for a physician based on my insurance. His office is located in a beautiful downtown area, where I had found a parking space right in front of the office on both visits. Inside was very clean, no complaints.
I had received a cleaning as well as two procedures. All the assistants who helped including the receptionist were friendly and knowledge and answered nearly all of my questions prior to even seeing the dentist. I always felt comfortable and relaxed while under the care of Dr Dooley and his assistants, so comfortable that I was close to falling asleep while he was drilling my teeth with dental tools and suctioning inside my mouth.
One of the procedures wasn’t fully covered by my insurance and it was very expensive but the receptionist gave me a detailed explanation of the cost prior to me receiving the care.
To summarize I had a very pleasant experience, I would recommend this office to family and friends and will use Dr Dooley in the future for my dental needs.
