Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Toback and his staff are very professional, courteous, and thorough.

Amazing MD
I can’t rave enough about how amazing Dr. Toback has been with me, a super high anxiety patient. He is the first oral surgeon/dentistry field MD who hasn’t hurt me during a procedure (and he did some very invasive procedures). Plus, he’s so nice and so down to earth. I would never even think of going to anyone else.

Good experience!
The Dr and his staff are great. I was disappointed that I had to wait for my implant. But I asked to be put on a list in the event of a cancellation and I was fortunate to get in sooner. It may not always happen, but for me it did. Thank you so much.

Hi Been a patient of Dr. Toback for several years. However, after misplacing the last implant and not rectifying the problem, I have left. The financial advisor said "We stand behind our work." But his office has not. I had the problem corrected by another dentist.

Have used numerous times for implant placement (x3) and gum restoration (x2). Care is meticulous and Dr. Toback has tremendous technical proficiency. All procedures have yielded excellent results which have lasted (my first implant there was about 5 yers ago). I believe his rates are somewhat high compared to others, but it is well worth it for excellent care and durable, good results.

I have been diagnosed with an actual, "dental phobia", and I am not proud of it! However, when I have an appointment with Dr. Toback I can at least make it to his office (and that's saying alot). When I see Dr. Toback and his assistant I finally can relax! Both he and his assistant explain everything, never rush, and never tease me about this bothersome phobia! I would recommend him and his assistant to all phobics out there.

I’ve had one dental crisis after another since cracking a molar a month and a half ago. I saw multiple doctors but none resolved the underlying infection, which resulted in ongoing pain and bone loss. Dr Tabac saw me the morning I called and scheduled emergency surgery the next day. His staff were great too and they spent the time to explain in detail the extent of my damage and treatment plan. Highly recommend

Referred to Dr. Toback's practice for an emergency extraction. His staff is exceptional as was the care I received. Dr. Toback is a highly skilled periodontist. My procedure went flawlessly and was without pain. Post-operative recovery was painless as well, requiring no post-operative pain medication after the first 8 hours. Dr. Toback has my highest recommendation.

About 10 years ago, I needed to have a tooth extracted and an implant placed. Dr. Toback and his staff provided excellent information on the procedures, healing time and pain management (I had no real pain after extraction and later on after implant). Today, a decade later, The implant and crown feel just like a real tooth. To me that’s the best compliment - an implant that works as if it is “a natural tooth”. I just saw Dr. Toback for another implant and once again he provided a great treatment plan and fully explained it. Unfortunately I needed an emergency tooth extraction done by a different local dentist that was not done in a manner to promote an implant. Dr. Toback came up up a treatment plan to deal with my less than ideal extraction by Dr. X. I fully recommend Dr. Toback and his staff for extraction and implants. Everyone in the practice is very professional, caring, supportive, and competent.

My Initial telephone contact was just the right mix of professionalism, efficiency and friendliness. This was repeated and reinforced in person throughout my appointment. Office staff and dental assistants are obviously carefully selected; they explained in detail the upcoming procedure. (Special appreciation to Diane.) Dr. Toback was most personable, and projected training and skill as he explained, in detail, the procedure and then accomplished it painlessly, efficiently and skillfully. Great office, great staff, great experience . Thanks.

I went to Dr. Toback's office for a free consultation to do a major surgery. They asked me to take an X-ray in order to give me a proposal of treatment. This X-ray cost about $200. But they never gave me the proposal. Instead, they asked me to go back again for a further consultation which would cost me several hundreds before a treatment proposal can be made. I found this doctor's practice not reliable. I suspect those hundreds of reviews on the internet were not written by real patients. It is very bizzare that most dentists hardly have reviews, but Dr. Toback has several hundreds of reviews and almost all of them are straight 5. I went to see Dr. Toback because of the good reviews, but what I experienced with him and his office is entirely the opposite.
