For the office in Binghamton, Ny…read more if you can have the time to let me express in this review, I am writing this after not being in any daily pain any longer. In which I had bacterial infections starting to break out in my mouth from a tooth in which severally needed a root canal operated on. My life had found me in a situation where a previous dentist had tapped onto a tooth and created a crack in one of my molar teeth. This was the beginning of a process of pain that would enter my life for over several years. Trying to find any help from insurance at all was a nightmare. My original dentist refused to fix this issue. And with pain in which was increasing in my mouth, the pain went from intolerable to a level where I was having to see my local doctor and also the E.R. far often than I wanted. I wanted a solution to this very badly and insurance was making it a nightmare in my life. I had been provided a recomendation to this dentist of Wilson in Binghamton NY. This was after so, so many times of being put on hold and never returned a call to and being led on missions to non-help by new york state. But finally, I had a place to actually see if any help could be done for me. By the time I had an appointment here, I did get approved for the procedures of a root canal to be performed. I found that the office secretaries were needlessly rude when I had walked into this dentist office. A worker had called a co-worker passing him by down the hallway a d**chebag. He was probably being lighthearted or didn't like his co-worker at all, I'm not one to know their rapport, but it felt really low class and uneeded to hear as a patient. The place was really cluttered in there and it seemed like they tried to rush as many people through as possible without much thought for care or anything. I was gone ahead to be approved for a root canal procedure. And the woman at the front desk had provided an order for pain medicine for my infected tooth, which looking back, was a pain I dont want to have in my life ever again. I needed pain medicine really badly for until I could have the root canal done. She said she sent the order in to my local pharmacy but this was not the case at all. I was scheduled about a month out to have the root canal done. I pushed through each day and did have to go to the E.R. again and also meet my primary care doctor to have pain medicine and anti-infection medications to take to hold me through. Waiting and pushing through to the time of having the appointment with them, I drove ahead of time that day to make sure i was on time for the appointment. Minutes ahead of their office even opening and as I was a several hour drive having arrived to there, a cell phone call from the secretary had called my phone. She was calling for Wilson Dental and it was the front desk secretary. She had cancelled the appointment for that root canal that I urgently needed done. It was not just that she cancelled the appointment but she was extremely unimaginably rude. Like levels of rudeness that it felt like she was trying to be nasty and a real b***h on purpose. I had found this site and read other reviews of similar experiences. I had also seen very much so that they overbook and that they cancel excessively. I tried to hold in my doubts and to persist to have a reschedule done because I needed this done really badly, to have this infection and pain go away. I wanted to keep my tooth very badly. Because I take care of my own teeth rather well and was proud of that, but bummed out and unfortunate with having that dentist of the past crack and damage that tooth. Yet another appointment after near a month had come up via that reschedule. And I had been cancelled by Wilson dental again. After reading many of the reviews on here, and the ones on Google Review which are real (many of these dentist offices will pay bots to write good reviews, if you are able to notice this. Because some of the cases and situations of real customers saying their experience warns people to stay away!) But after reading some of what happened to people who DID have appointments kept and people at Wilson Dental laying their hands on people, I feel it is possible I would by far regret and be in even worse off pain, if that is possible to have felt. After too much pain and fighting endlessly with insurance to help me somehow stop having this ongoing, because it was effecting my living and standard of life in a pain I began to hate and feel was horrible, I finally had just gotten up to a university of Rochester and just plain had the tooth pulled from my mouth. I really think that Wilson Dental is corrupt. The unprofessionalism from the secretary staff there, to what feels like something that is illegal for how often that they cancel peoples appointments right when you feel hope, makes me severely discourage people from ever going there.

She sent me to have three teeth removed. While I was waiting for those sites to heal I lost the tip of another. I went in to have the tip repaired and she also did purely cosmetic fillings on the outside surface with the warning it might not last. She was right. It didn't. I paid over $800 for a gloss that fell out after two weeks. It's been a year now and the tip repair has fallen out, too. I had a partial plate with six teeth built for almost $2K. I can't wear it. It gives me a speech impediment. She said, "Oh, just read the newpaper outloud." There is so much plastic I can't find my alveolar ridge to form an l, n, d, or t. There is even plastic on the back surface of the upper front teeth, that I can't form an Italian l either. I'm a voice professional and must be able to perform in Italian, French, and English as well as demonstrate to my students. The only positives about the office are the delightful woman in the front office and the very healthy croton that gets morning sunshine through the window. Avoid at all costs.

The staff were genuine, attentive, and professional -- you can feel when a clinic truly values patients, and this one does. My first visit was excellent. The care team listened, took their time, and never made me feel rushed. The atmosphere was modern, clean, and relaxed. Staff encouraged and reinforced positive habits rather than shaming anyone for what they "should" be doing -- a huge difference compared to other places. The first set of x-rays was essentially free (saving me hundreds), which stunned me. Both the dentist and hygienist were thorough, careful, and patient. This is how dentistry should feel: professional, compassionate, and centered on care -- not billing. I highly recommend Gorges Dentistry to anyone in Ithaca looking for quality dental care.

I have an Excellus plan through the marketplace. They initially told me that I would receive a reimbursement check in 4-6 weeks... That time had passed so I called back and someone said they would get back to me later that day (no one ever did...). I waited another WEEK and had to call back again. When I spoke to a person this time they had trouble looking me up because the person initially taking down my information had it completely wrong... same birthday (month/day) but wrong year, same first name, but wrong last name, and the wrong street address (but the same street number...). Very odd and unprofessional - it seemed like they were trying to multitask or looking at information from two different sheets... It made enough sense to confirm it was me, but had SO MANY errors. Either way once that was resolved she said I would get a check for reimbursement withing a week. Another Week goes by and nothing so I call back AGAIN! And this time I find out that they cannot submit the claim because its through the state (I don't know how they missed that on my initial visit, but they did.) SO I had to call insurance and submit the claim on my own just to find out that Gorges dental was "out of network" - so now Im stuck paying "out of pocket". I WOULD AVOID THIS DENTIST AT ALL COST IF YOU HAVE INSURANCE THROUGH EXCELLUS, OR ANY PLAN THROUGH "THE STATE".

I have been to Dentists that would make Hannibal Lecter look like Daniel Tiger (I'm a dad... that's the only comparison I could think of right now ) and, thankfully, they're getting easier to identify; no eye contact, little to no communication, asking what type of insurance we have before any attempt at a polite greeting, suggesting a ridiculous amount of dental work followed by zero explanation of WHY, without first, asking about the initial reason you are there, and lastly, racing from room to room at a speed that seems cartoonish in order to get through their 50-75 patients a day as the only dentist in house...etc etc. same old GD racket. WITH ALL OF THAT SAID, the young Dr. Singh at Wilson dental in Dryden NY, immediately put me at ease by showing none of these behaviors. In fact, he did the complete opposite of all of them. I felt seen and heard. I wasn't just another Medicaid ID #. It was such a relief and I couldn't have been more grateful. Lastly, while the young Dr Singh was treating me like a human being, the woman at the front desk along with the hygienist in the room with me, helped tremendously by keeping an eye on my daughters in the waiting room and really went out of their way to make sure that they were comfortable while waiting for me. I cannot say enough good things about the positive and consistent experiences I continue to have at this dentist. I'm hoping that the staff will eventually read this and know how incredibly grateful I am after years of seeing the worst dentists possible.

Be aware that they don't perform root canals in office, but refer you to an endodontist, which can be good or bad. For me, it's inconvenient to have to go to another office (hence the four star rating), but there's certainly nothing wrong with having a specialist do the procedure. I plan to have my routine care at Seven Valley Dental from now on.
