Patient Testimonials

  • On Saturday, May 4, 2013 I had...

    On Saturday, May 4, 2013 I had a dental cleaning. Val is my hygenist. She makes me feel at ease and works quickly yet gently in my mouth. She alerts me to the areas that require careful flossing to avoid any pockets where plaque could accumulate. My next appointment is made with Val and a new toothbrush with assorted dental supplies are given to me at the end of the appointment.

    Outstanding is how I describe the Farber Center. Friendly staff welcome and support you with comfort and education. The service is of the highest quality and provided in a clean and safe environment. I am thankful my dentist referred me to Dr. Farber. He and the hygienists have been able to save my loose teeth.

    Had surgery on one quadrant last week. Had another quadrant done a few months ago. Procedures went well and the post-op period was uneventful both times. After seeing periodontists for over 30 years I feel that I can say that Dr. Chris is a gem. Nice person and great doctor. I am so thankful that my friend recommended the Farber group to me after my periodontist of many years retired. I will be a faithful patient.

    Dr. Farber did a very complicated procedure and I expected to have discomfort and lots of swelling on the subsequent days. I was really surprised that with frequent icing, and the medications he prescribed, I was neither black and blue nor in pain. How did that happen? He and his staff are professional, friendly and very competent.

  • Feasability Study for an Implant

    Many options were explored pending evaluation outcomes. A consultation will determine what is the best course of action to take for my situation. I welcomed the time and attention both the doctor and technician gave to me to explain the procedure and to show some of the initial results of the testing. It was a thoroughly relaxing, informative and pleasant experience.
