Dr. Korkosz did my root canal so poorly that I had nerve twinging after it was done. I went back to…read moreher because none of my other root canals had felt like that, ever, and she told me it would be fine and gave me an antibiotic perscription. Fast forward a year, and this root canal is terrible. I feel it every day. I went to my dentist and got an x-ray done, and the first question he had for me was, "Did a dental student do this root canal?" Korkosz did not widen my root canals as she went, leaving them very thin and likely did not completely clear them out which is why I still have sensation and pain. She also does not put metal supports in the middle of the tooth to support the crown, which is surely compounding the issue I'm facing currently. I am going to have to have my root canal re-done, correctly, and it's going to cost me a lot of money and pain. I would not recommend ever going to this endo, for anything. She has the skills of a dental student and you will pay in the long run for it.

I am very pleased with my root canal experience. Dr. Korkosz was professional but still friendly…read more She explained options clearly before the procedure and also "what to expect" after the procedure. Although it's hard to judge from a layman's perspective, her technique seemed excellent. The root canal is done in two appointments and I had no discomfort after either visit. I'm likely to need a second and will not hesitate to return. I agree with another reviewer that the receptionist is great and that the practice is in a wonderful old house.

My tooth has a complicated history, and Dr. Ghandi listened carefully. The tooth, a molar, had…read morealso been corrected by braces a few years back in my early 60s; when I was a child it had come in "sideways" (not even touching the tooth below) and it took quite a bit of "coaxing" to straighten it, to say the least. Prior to my visit I had seen another endodontist two years earlier, who recommended crowning the tooth, which had been chronically sensitive, due, in his opinion, to a likely small crack in the tooth itself (not the root). He did not think the root was affected. My dentist crowned the tooth, but the problem persisted, and my dentist again referred me to an endodontist, and this time I saw Dr. Ghandi. Dr. Ghandi listened to all of this and gave me her opinion that "no root" could likely survive the trauma of being forced as it had been to straighten it, I'm sure because I'd had braces many decades after the tooth emerged. She recommended a two-step root canal, first to remove the dead root, and then to pack it with an antibiotic for a month before finished the procedure. We did that, and in fact the root was dead and infected, with some bone loss. However, she is reasonably confident that the tooth can be saved (from extraction), although it may take some time for the longtime sensitivity to fade. Time will tell. Dr. Ghandi is a true professional. She listens well, considers what you say, explains her opinion clearly, and tells you step by step, in a considerate way, what she's doing to your tooth as she proceeds. She may have saved my tooth, which apparently was not ideally managed earlier (although she avoids any criticism of other practitioners; just gives her opinion going forward). Her staff is also polite, efficient, and obviously competent. Oh, and if you call with a question or problem following the procedure (I had some pain, not surprisingly, after step one), she absolutely will call you back at the end of the day (and prescribed antibiotics, in my case). I recommend her and her office without reservation.

I had no problems with the surgery Dr. Doolittle performed. However, over the past year+ every…read moreoffice visit was accompanied with my having to listen to his very conservative views. Not much you can do about it when you've already paid over $2400 for the procedure. So be aware that while he has his hands in your mouth, you'll have to listen to whatever he wants to tell. The final straw for me was my last checkup. He started talking politics and I made it very clear I wasn't comfortable discussing politics with him - especially as he was once again sticking his hands in my mouth. But he could care less, gleefully continuing to drive home his points. He gets an F minus for bedside manor. I have one more checkup (already paid for of course) but I'm so uncomfortable that I will be skipping the last appointment. So, consider this your warning. Oh, one other thing, you'll likely have to wait since he doesn't seem to run on time, even when you have an appointment early in the day.

A patient for 25 years mainly under the old ownership of the practice who have recently retired,…read morethe practice is not the same as it used to be. The new main dentist, rhymes with lox, has the personality of a greedy rock. Lipnick was great, the reason why I stayed with the practice for so long; with him gone, the practice has lost all patient centered focus, it's now $, $ and more $. After going over my annual dental insurance limit and being hit with a big bill, I paid in installments only to find out that during Covid, when I lost my job, the practice had referred my account to a collection agency - they call it an "accelerator." Nice euphemism for we don't give a shit about you, give us our money. Once I learned of the practices' money grubbing ways to a 25 year client, I gladly stepped away and hope others do as well in the hope of actually finding dentists with just a sliver of compassion, understanding and heart. You won't find it at Albany Dental Team!
