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.

Every aspect of my experience was great. I have no complaints . DrAlperin was very kind and the surgery went quickly. It was done before I knew what had happened.

Master Oral Surgeon
The staff was compassionate and flexible about rescheduling me around winter storm Landon, and there was plenty of useful information on the website. The office is very well organized and comfortable in every area. Dr. Alperin's awesome safari slideshow helped me relax, and his expert extraction of an upper molar is healing up rapidly.

Everything went very smoothly from check-in to the procedure to departure. Dr. Alperin is an expert to say the least. I am sure you could not find a more qualified person anywhere. One disconcerting feature of the visit was that a patient (male) arrived without a mask. This in spite of signs indicating masks are required. It is too much to ask staff to enforce the mask mandate. If there is security in the building it should be summoned in such situations. To reiterate, Dr. Alperin is an expert's expert.

Dr. Alperin extracted a large tooth yesterday. It was completely painless, and still is painless with no swelling! He is kind and really cares about you. He also has performed root canal procedures and tooth extractions for my wife, also without pain and with great results. Dr. Alperin is great!

This was my third experience with Dr. Fried. In each case, he extracted a tooth with care and concern for me as a person, not just my tooth. He was sensitive to my anxiety, and was calming. In each case, I had very little pain afterwards, and he called me to check on my progress two days later. His facility is always clean, and his staff are courteous and professional. I would return to him in the future if the need arises.

I’ve been to Dr. Alperin previously for wisdom teeth and he did a good job. However, when I had surgery for realignment of my lower jaw, he did a horrible job. To begin, during my consultation with my mother, he spoke about his safari trip and flying around in a jet. He also seemed to be hitting on my mother (gross). He didn’t seem to be all there. I have pictures before and after the surgery. My midline of my front teeth happen to be off by a millimeter or two. My bite is not aligned and doesn’t sit perfectly (after a surgery like this, it should). I currently work in surgical device sales and I attend orthopedic surgeries on a daily basis. At the time of this surgery I was unaware of the possibility of revision surgery. I should have demanded it to be redone. My orthodontist even said “it may have to be redone.” I do not recommend Dr. Alperin for serious jaw surgery. I struggle everyday with my bite and will have to have additional surgery in the future.

I needed to have a tooth extracted prior to follow-up dental work. This was my first experience with Dr. Alperin, and I was very pleased. His work was quick and painless. His concern for my well-being was evident after I received a call from him that evening inquiring about my condition. I'll be happy to use his expertise again.

Dr. Alperin removed a family member's tooth. Now, it was my turn to have a decayed wisdom tood removed. Great experience. No pain during extraction, little bleeding, one day watching tv - not because of discomfort, but because the motrin made me lethargic. At work on Day 2, no pills, no discomfort.
