There are no words to describe how WONDERFUL my experience with Dr. Marc Plotkin! Everyone in the office is very caring, making sure I am comfortable with every procedure being a teeth cleaning, a removal of a tooth or a crown placement, they are excellent!

I've been going to Dr. Marc for several years and each visit is outstanding! He's PERFECT! The awesome man really knows his work. I don't feel absolutely no pain whatsoever when he extracts a tooth, none! I've never even felt needle pinching from the lidocaine injections! He gets each and every fragment of tooth out, as well. My last visit was yesterday, and I was just as pleased with him yesterday as I was on the very first visit. He always prescribes pain meds for after use, but I NEVER NEED the meds because I never feel any pain afterwards! It's been hours and hours since my extraction, my gum

This has been the best dental experience I've ever had (I've gone three times for different services). All the staff treats their patients with warmth and professionalism. They also honor their appointment times.

We had a very pleasant experience with Dr. Marc Plotkin and other staff. Always warm and welcoming and not satisfied until their patient is happy with whatever work may have been needed!
