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.

Entire staff was professional and pleasant
Telehealth
The entire staff was professional and pleasant. I had a wisdom tooth extraction performed by Dr. Treinkman and the entire staff made me feel as comfortable as possible throughout the process. It put me at ease to see that he operates his dentistry with the foundation of old school methods innovated with modern technology. Additionally, I appreciate that East Village Dental performs all procedures in their office and does not refer you to different clinics for surgeries, crowns or extractions.

Great Dentist!
Doctor Treinkman and my dental hygienist Pragmatist Dani have been taking care of my Dental Hygiene since the year of 2008. That’s wonderful for me because I was one of those folks that feared going to Dentist because of previous misfortunes. No more Fears for me.

Highly recommend!!!
Dr. Treinkman and team are so kind, patient, and understanding. I always feel comfortable and cared for when I am there. Prior to discovering this wonderful place, I had a horrible experience at a previous dental office. When I came to East Village Dental Centre for the first time, I knew right away I was in the right place. I am so thankful for them!! Excellent dental service. Highly knowledgeable and experienced team. Believe me when I say, they will take good care of you! Thank you, thank you, thank you for always being so warm, friendly, patient, professional, and honest.

Great Office Visits Always
I have had nothing but positive experiences at this office! Everyone from the front desk to the dental hygienists, assistants and dentists in the back are so very friendly and caring. Always smiling,professional and their service is OUTSTANDING! They are very detailed and precise with everything they do! I travel here from out of state because I have yet to find a dental office in my hometown that provides this level of service. I highly recommend this office if you’re looking for exceptional dental care!

A great return visit.
I returned to the office after a two year absence for a check-up and a cleaning. Dr. Treinkman and his staff were as wonderful and caring as they were two years ago. I noticed a few new cosmetic changes which only enhanced my dental experience. My two year absence was no fault of the office but instead my lack of insurance. I am happy to be able to return to this office for my dental healthcare.

Not in network
This isn’t about service which was fine. However, when they confirmed they had my insurance details, they failed to mention that they were not in the insurance network. Worse yet, I am sitting in the chair and they then tell me that my charge is going to be an additional $100 for some sort of “special cleaning” that they already did. So, I walk out with a $380 bill for cleaning and an x-Ray. One would think they have some sort of ethical obligation to say that they aren’t in network. Instead, they imply by silence, that they are. And then the up charge when I am 30 minutes into the appointment? Come on! Good people, but don’t waste your time and money here.
