    Great Dentist who cares about his patients. Reasonably priced work compared to other dentists in New York. Highly recommended.

    Dr. Ezra removed my wisdom teeth and the entire operation felt quick and painless. His staff is…read morealways extremely nice and polite. I highly recommend him!

    First impression always matter! These people are rundown and collect teeth like their Abram. I went…read morehere to get my tooth pulled had an appointment for 9:30am walked in and I was told to write my name on the clipboard. I was number 9 on the list, instantly irritated because why do we have an appointment? Next I'm sitting in the waiting area since 9:30 wasn't see until 11:45am the medical assistant came got me and didn't even tell me to take my coat off. Just put the X-ray gown on me and took my X-rays. Put me in the room, didn't clip the towel over me just laid it on my chest and left. The doctor came in the room around 12:00 noon! Mind you I had a 9:30am appointment! He numbed my mouth, told me to wait 5 mins he will be back. I started feeling shaky because I was uncomfortable! It's only one doctor, one medical assistant and a front desk lady. No real structure or workflow. He came back into the room and started pulling my tooth, I told him to stop immediately because I could still feel the pain. He numb me again and again still was feeling the pain while he is tugging on my tooth not gentle enough but rough as if he had somewhere to be ! I told him he hurting. He said well you do have an infection on the tooth and it's going to be painful. I could put you to sleep for $250 like ummmm no if I have an infection why would you pull my tooth without me taking care of the infection first! Diabolical so I am crying from the pain. He like okay I'll send meds and we will resume next week! I was left in the room crying the medical assistant is like okay you can head to the front. As she is setting up the room for the next patient. He was so rough in my mouth just going for it instead of easing my way in. I advise the lady in the front about how rough he was she said did you tell him I said no. My mom asked her what is the next steps because she is the one who recommended me. The front desk lady tells me and my mom I'm being overly sensitive!! Like I'm not in pain! The doctors comes out my mom is speaking to him and he goes I been doing this for years. I said okay but your bed side manner sucks. I wouldn't recommend this place ! They're a money grab for the low income community! It's a hole in the wall, equipment looks rusty!

    I am submitting this review as a formal record of my experience with Smile Crafters in Cambria…read moreHeights, Queens, and to document a pattern of conduct that raises serious concerns regarding professionalism, patient safety, and compliance with basic healthcare service standards. I previously received dental work from this office that was acceptable. However, my most recent experience demonstrates a significant decline in service quality, staff competency, and operational integrity. 1. Lack of Professionalism and Training The staff displayed behavior that is inconsistent with the standards expected of a licensed dental practice. Employees appeared undertrained, disorganized, and unable to provide accurate information regarding appointments, treatment plans, or follow‑up care. This level of unpreparedness is unacceptable in any medical environment, especially one responsible for patient health. 2. Failure to Respond to Calls, Emails, and Emergencies Repeated attempts to contact the office were met with: Extended hold times Being placed on hold and forgotten Calls being disconnected No returned calls No responses to emails No acknowledgment of urgent or emergency situations A dental provider has a duty of care to ensure patients can reach them for post‑treatment issues, complications, or urgent concerns. The complete lack of communication represents a serious breach of professional responsibility. 3. Lack of Transparency and Accountability At no point did the office provide: Clear explanations Timely updates Proper documentation Any form of accountability for the delays or failures in communication This absence of transparency undermines trust and raises questions about the clinic's internal management and compliance with New York State dental practice regulations. 4. Emotional and Practical Impact As a patient, I was left: Without support Without answers Without access to necessary follow‑up care The experience was deeply disappointing and distressing, especially given that dental issues can escalate quickly without proper attention. 5. Public Safety Concerns Based on my experience, the clinic's operational failures may place other patients at risk. A dental office that cannot reliably communicate, respond to emergencies, or maintain professional standards should be subject to review by the appropriate regulatory authorities. Conclusion My experience with Smile Crafters - Cambria Heights was unprofessional, unsafe, and unacceptable. The lack of training, communication, and transparency demonstrates a systemic problem, not an isolated incident. This review is submitted to: Warn other patients Document the issues for public record Encourage oversight and corrective action No patient should be forced to endure this level of neglect from a licensed dental provider.
