My kids were patients of Dr. Michael Reale (pediatric dentist in FS, NY). Unfortunately for my…read morefamily, he recently retired. Dr Reale was compassionate, gentle, knowledgeable, funny, and thorough. Everything you could want in a pediatric dentist. Anyhow; My 15 year old developed a bad toothache when he ate sweets or drank or ate anything cold on the bottom left side of his mouth. We were recommended to try out Dr. Elizabeth Kitsos (a local pediatric dentist). When I made the appt, I clearly stated my son just had a check up but has a toothache. I was asked to send photos of his tooth and was given an appointment for a week later. The dental office called me the following day, stating they can get him in sooner being he was in pain. Appt day comes, we waited in waiting room and then exam room for a decent amount of time- ok fine, no big deal. When Dr. Elizabeth Kitsos finally entered the room she asked which tooth hurt and my son pointed to the area. She had different instruments she used to find the exact problem area. Guessing she couldn't see the cavity??? Dr. Elizabeth Kitsos asked if we had x - rays or photos and I told her yes; we emailed them days ago. She then found them. She repeatedly blew cold air, sprayed cold water, and then used another instrument used to tap hard on all the surrounding teeth as well. Dr. Kitsos also had her assistant blow air on the tooth/area for a good amount of time while she held a cell phone over my son's mouth to try to take her own picture. While this was going on my son was moaning in pain and they were completely oblivious, until he literally yelled "stop" After this charade went on for 25-35 minutes she had her assistant the 2 x-rays. Dr. Elizabeth Kitsos finally returned & explained although there may possibly be a cavity in the area, she wasn't sure, she wants us to visit an endodontist to see if something else is going on. (My son was in excruciating pain from all of the cold water spraying and air.) I literally asked the dentist if she could fill what looked like a cavity to me...and then we'll see the endodontist. Dr. Elizabeth Kitsos told me her staff only scheduled my son for a 15 minute consult not a filling appt so she didn't have time to fill the possible little cavity. She did say I could possibly come back to get it done maybe tomorrow or maybe even later that night. At that point, I didn't trust her judgement or didn't like the fact she was lying to me. She had a photo of my son's tooth with a picture of the cavity. She was well aware we were coming for a cavity to be filling by the mere fact they moved his appt up due to the pain he was in. IMO Dr. Elizabeth Kitsos is an incompetent liar. She was careless and unresponsive to my son's pain as she was checking for a cavity. She left him worse than how he started. Absolutely a horrible experience!! FYI- we went to a local dentist in FS. Got an appointment right away. FYI- It was a deep cavity- Cavity was filled today! Amazing experience!

My children and I had many wonderful experiences at Dr Elizabeth Kitsos Pediatric Dentistry!…read more A very nice pediatric dentistry practice! From the moment you walk in the door you are greeted by a wonderfully welcoming, kid friendly staff, no wait and the office is spotless. In the waiting room there are activities for the kids and video games. It's nice, they have a TV to keep the kids occupied while their teeth are being checked. Dr Elizabeth as well as the dental assistants also are so friendly and awesome with both of my children. The first time we visited, my son was quite concerned as he had a troublesome loose baby tooth that was not coming out toward the back, a little hard to maneuver. Dr Elizabeth put him at ease with her natural super friendly mannerisms, the kindest smile and funny banter. When it was time for the numbing injection, she knew exactly what to say... he thought it was fun as he was going to receive "sleepy-juice", opened wide, didn't wince or notice that he received a numbing injection. I sat there amazed and said to myself "what a pro"!! All dentists are trained however that type of care and skill comes from within. We recommended Dr Elizabeth Kitsos and her practice to our friends. Their children love her. Some have gone to college, come back during their breaks and insist on continuing to be treated by Dr Elizabeth, their favorite pediatric dentist :) We can't wait for our next visit. Thank you Dr Elizabeth!!

The waiting room was clean & has complimentary refreshments, coffee, seltzer, & juices. And a playroom just for kiddies. Dr.Sybil & Moe were very friendly and good with my daughter. She just sat in the chair and was very comfortable with her experience. I was so surprised to see my baby so cooperative. Since she always struggles to brush her teeth at home. My daughter sat there the whole time and had her 1st check up and seemed to enjoy it . Even when Dr.Sybil was brushing her teeth; she sat there so cooperatively. I definitely recommend this practice to all my family & friends. This practice also caters to adults. I might even consider coming to this dentistry for myself.

I had a great experience yesterday when I brought my 3 year old here to fix his cavities. They got…read moreso bad to the point that our original pediatric dentist couldn't fix them in his primary care office. He told us we needed to go somewhere that will be able to put him under general anesthesia as he is too young and finicky to be able to just have nitrous oxide. So I researched several places and this one came up with great reviews for Dr Sybil. Ultimately, we liked her and had the procedure done. We received a call from the anesthesiologist the night before to review everything and went in at 8am to begin- luckily it was too early for him to eat breakfast and he had to be NPO anyway. Dr Sybil and the rest of the team reassured us and reviewed everything before they began. My husband took our child in, they put a mask on and he was out in less than a minute. Then we waited in a small meeting room while they did his dental work. Around 11am, Dr Sybil came out to tell us everything went well, that they were waiting for him to wake up and that they will get us before he really wakes up so he wouldn't be too scared. Grateful to Dr Sybil, Dr Rivero (anesthesia) and Nancy (paramedic) for their awesome job. And thanks to the staff for checking on us and offering refreshments! Great place for kids and excellent customer service.

I researched local dental providers within my new network and stumbled upon the stellar reviews from my fellow yelpers. Luckily this office is so close to home for me. I was politely greeted and filled out all intake information with the 2 front desk girls. They were professional and kind. I then met with hygienist Hazel who took her time cleaning my teeth, was very gentle and afterwards had a brief consult with me about flossing more to avoid plaque build up. The other hygienist Gloria was very welcoming and kind as well. Dr. Jacob entered the room and was extremely friendly and bubbling with a great sense of humor. He consulted with me about the enamel stains I've had on my two front teeth since a child. This is the first time a dentist has suggested an alternative to invasive porcelain veneers. For years, I've met with different providers and there has not been a solution. He discussed a mild Icon polish treatment and was happy to review what my insurance covers. I'm extremely satisfied with my visit and can't wait to return for this procedure so that I can feel more confident smiling. Just like rapper Cardi.B I just want to get a bag and fix my teeth. You know it's not cheap :) The parking lot is super convenient for patients. Such an added bonus for this area that monopolizes on municipal parking.

The first call was my wife who had explained the situation and we needed to see someone ASAP. She was put on hold only to be told that there was nothing for another 1.5 weeks. I called immediately after to appeal since he was in constant pain and was unable to eat for two days (we'd been to the ER and they only put on a layer that came off the next day--the office was closed Sunday and Monday). Suddenly, the receptionist's tone changed and we were shut down that they couldn't take us and had no alternative suggestions for us. About an hour later, Dr. Ioannou called me directly to make it right. He found a way for Dr. Matt to see us immediately. When we showed up, we were seen very quickly. And while the tooth had to be extracted, they were great with my son.

How cool it is too play video games when he works on your teeth. I have never heard crying or screaming from any child in this office. He has a way with kids. He always explained what he plans to do with you. He never lies and earns trust from the kids. My kid is never afraid of dentist appointment and I wish I can do the same with my own.

Santina is the sweetest person alive and always on top of everything, so so accommodating. With that said if you're looking for your children's teeth to be in the best care and hands, you will only find that with Dr. Maccaro and staff.
