Just moved to White Plains & needed to find a nearby dentist who took my UFT insurance. I found Dr. Polevoy & Gentle Touch via internet search/reviews. I happy to report that Dr. P & the ENTIRE STAFF in this office were really great. Everyone from the front desk, dental assistant & hygienist were friendly, polite, & took time to answer my questions. Btw, even the cleaning was gentle, so the practice is aptly named! I highly recommend this practice.

This was the best dental experience I've ever had. It was my first time there, and I wasn't disappointed. I had an emergency crown installed. When I called at 2 p.m., they scheduled me for 4 p.m. I needed an emergency crown placed, and both the staff and the dentist were friendly and made me feel at ease. Dr. Steven was kind enough to call back and check in to make sure there were no complications. Excellent work! I highly recommend it!
