Dr. Michael S Garber

Rude dismissive staff, out of date facilities and equipment… all can be enjoyed in an office that looks like your grandma’s living room!

I have been treated by Dr. Garber for some 15 years, he is skilled, caring and conscientious. He has provided both my family and me with first-rate dental services in a professional and caring way. These services include fillings, crowns, a Maryland bridge and routine dental care He has taken the time to assist me in locating orthodontic services from a practitioner who was particularly suited to provide the treatment plan that I required. I can't speak highly enough about his competence or his willingness to find the right solution. I know from his treatment of my late mother, that he never performs a procedure or recommends a treatment for selfish reasons.

Went there due to my old dentist retiring and had a recommendation. The assistant taking the xrays for a first time appointment was obviously having a grand old time making me gag on the lead mouth retainer as she took her sweet time. Then I find out that the eensy-weensee barely visible dark gray spot is a cavity. And, by the way, you really should have that other tooth capped with a crown. Not necessary, but highly recommended. So a couple of weeks later I get the filling for the cavity and I wonder if this doc (who has had 40 years experience) still has the touch b/c my mouth is a bloody mess after "scaling the gums." After it's all over they give me the "scare-the-customer spiel" AGAIN with the elective crown surgery because I may "accidentaly chomp down on a pit and break this part of the tooth there whether it's tomorrow or 5 years from now." I don't know if the good doc needs to milk me and my insurance company to make further payments on the BMW or the second summer… home or to put his kid through private rehab so the neighbors don't know, but I'm going elsewhere from now on. Oh yeah, if you want your x-rays, which YOU PAID for... good luck. "Doctor" Garber needs to "review them" to see why you're taking your business elsewhere.
