I was a patient of Dr. Testa's from the mid to late 1980s. I'm 26 years old now and the name…read more"Testa" still brings up connotations of sadism and dental hell. He always strapped me down to a papoose board and drugged me with nitrous, which he dubbed "the snoopy nose." Snoopy my ass. Once when I was very young I was screaming for them to let me go to the bathroom. Neither the dentist nor his assistants would take the restraints off. So I peed all over him because I couldn't hold it anymore and he got totally angry about it. This early experience (plus my mother who always used to freak us out about getting dental work done) helped lead me to a life of fearing the dentist. I now have to take anti-anxiety medications before I go in for a routine procedure like a filling.

I saw the previous review and thought I would share my story. I also had a very bad childhood…read moreexperience at Dr. Testa's office. I unfortunately bit him when he gave me a shot of novocaine in the roof of my mouth. The needle hit a nerve and I didn't mean to bite him. He responded by screaming at me and slapping me in the face three times. His assistants held me down as I cried. I'm a grown woman now, but it took years to get over my fear of the dentist. I would never take my own child to this office.

I got an extraction from Dr. Malaki at this location. The experience was horrible. I got general…read moreanesthesia. I told them up front that they should use my hand because people have issues giving me injections through my arm. They proceeded to stick me in both arms multiple times before resorting to using my hand like I told them. The doctor was condescending about me not bringing my inhaler, which I was never told to bring with me over the phone. After the extraction, I had an extreme amount of swelling and was never scheduled for a follow up appointment. I started having severe pain in the following week, for which the painkillers I was given (Tylenol 3) were not working. In the second week of healing, I called and explained that I was having severe pain and wanted to speak to the surgeon over the phone because I could not afford to keep taking days off work. I was told I would not be allowed to speak to her and would be required to come in. I was then told I could not be scheduled until the next week, despite my pain (it was giving me migraines and I couldn't sleep more than 2 to 3 hours a night). The front desk woman did not care in the slightest. I was on the verge of tears on the call because it truly was that serious and she acted like I was inconveniencing her by explaining my experience. When I made it into the office finally, Dr. Malaki looked at me, told me the socket was healing well, I was having this reaction because I'm a woman and my hormones can mess with the healing, and that I should have just called and spoke to her over the phone if that was more convenient than coming in. In summary, don't go here. My partner got an extraction of THREE TEETH compared to my one tooth and had nowhere near as much swelling or pain. They distinctly ruined my ability to have faith in dental professionals and if I thought I had grounds to sue, I would.
