Paul Freedman, DMD

I love Dr. Freedman! Great dentist and a great guy. Jacob B. recommended Dr. Freedman to me and I will never go to another dentist as long as I live in Boston.

Dr. Freedman is excellent. I’ve been seeing him for 2 years now and have nothing to complain about. I have a crown on my front tooth and every other dentist I’ve seen in Boston constantly pressured me into having it replaced — but not Dr. Freedman. When I finally decided it was time for a new crown, he offered to give me free whitening as a wedding present. He’s extremely easy to talk to and works around your schedule. I’m moving out of the city this year but still plan on driving in just so I don’t lose him as a dentist.

I just went to him once, but I really enjoyed my experience. First off, he has a great location for anyone living or working in the West End, North End, or Beacon Hill. It was easy to make an appointment and they were able to schedule me promptly. Dr. Freedman is funny, interesting, and great to talk to. You can also tell that he’s a really honest guy and isn’t going to pressure you into unnecessary or unwanted care — for example, he mentioned that I might have some minor problem with my teeth but that it didn’t need repair. I moved to a new city after that, and he sent me my x-​rays via email without a fee or any hassle.
I highly recommend Dr. Freedman if you’re looking for a personable, professional, honest dentist.

Dr Freedman and his hygienist Susan are a great team. My teeth are not in the best shape but the doctor has a treatment plan to rectify this situation. His professional manner and painless technique are worth having a great smile.

Dr. Freedman is the best Dentist I have ever met. He is a brilliant, funny, compassionate individual who genuinely cares about his patients.
I go there for regular cleanings and check ups, which Dr. Freedman and his associate Susan perform deftly and without any pain.
I am also having orthodontic work done by Dr. Freedman and Susan. There is such a warm atmosphere in the office, that I actually look forward to every appointment.
If you are in need of any kind of dental care, I highly recommend Dr. Freedman. You will be impressed.

BEST DENTIST EVER!!!
One of his best qualities is if you ever have an emergency he will see you right away, holidays and weekends included. Now how many dentists have you heard that about? That is a super important quality when you have difficult teeth like me.
He is personable and Susan, his assistant, are a pleasure and make the dentist’s visit as pleasant as it possibly can be.
I have recommended him to all my friends and co-​workers and they all love him too.

Do I want to share Dr. Freedman??? Hmm, Does one want to share the last piece of cake? Uh. No. But ’tis the season of giving.
He’s a great dentist, fun to chat with, puts you at ease (as much as can be had when there’s a drill at hand), and a genuinely caring person. Procedures were quick and skillfully done, both he and Susan are great at what they do. I had my first appointment with him yesterday, and I already feel like introducing him to the family. Even though he was double booked, he helped me out in a pinch and saw me.
I’m about to go through an insurance change, but you can bet that I’ll be fighting to keep Dr. Freedman with me.

Worst dentist ever! Rude, inconsiderate, and completely unprepared.

I have been away from Dr. Freedmans Office for years and I am RUNNING back to him. He is the only dentist for me. He helped me with a TMJ problem and found the cause in 5 min. He replaced a big lower bridge and did it so well. I now need a top bridge and I want ONLY Dr. Freedman to do it. I don’t work in the city any more, but I will make the trip for sure! Susan is a sweetheart too!

I’ve been going to Dr. Freedman for 12+ years and find him to be not only a wiz at all things dental, but very accommodating in the event of any dental emergency I’ve had.
Dare I say that he’s such an interesting person that I actually look forward to seeing him and Susan (his asst)… NEVER in my life did I ever think I’d actually want to see a dentist, but the atmosphere in his office is friendly and his care very personal.
I’ve recommended him to several friends who have asked me about my «perfect» teeth… Ha! Before I began going to see Dr. F my teeth were yellow and crooked. Not only do I have the decay under control, but now I get complimented on my beautiful smile thanks to his cosmetic dentistry work. :D

Dr. Freedman is the best dentist I’ve ever had — I actually don’t dread going to the dentist now, which is saying a lot. He fixed the problems I had very quickly and his cost was reasonable.
He’s also friendly and very professional, and Susan, his assistant, is also very pleasant and great at her job.
The office is conveniently located on Hawthorne Place, right next to MGH and the Shriner’s Hospital, which is easy for me since I can hop on the Red Line to get to work after an appointment.
I have recommended Dr. Freedman to many of my friends, and I wouldn’t hesitate to do so again. After suffering through a couple of bad dentists, it’s a relief to have finally found a good one!

Dr. Freedman is a great dentist. I highly recommend him. He’s personable and very competent. I’ve been seeing him for years. He uses the latest technology. He’s up on the news of the day and you won’t be bored for a minute. His assistant Susan is also wonderful.
Note that Dr. Freedman has updated and moved his office since the previous reviews.
He’s now at 3 Hawthorne Place, Suite 107, a short walk from the Government Center T stop, and just a few blocks from the foot of Beacon Hill.

I disagree with the previous two reviews. I have been going to Dr. Freedman for a number of years now, and he his professional, well priced, and hasn’t caused too much pain. He is very loquacious, which some may not appreciate, but I love it.

Avoid at all costs! Worst Dentist experience EVER! My gums are still bleeding and I am getting nauseous from all the blood I have been swallowing. You think I probably had a Huuuge procedure done and that’s why I still have the irony taste of blood in my mouth… not really… I was there only for a ‘Cleaning’! I do not want to imagine how anyone would survive a more complicated procedure. First of all this dentist office needs a MAJOR update. His X-​Ray machine, although certified, was built in 1982! ALMOST THIRTY YEARS ago! I am only 3 years older than that machine and I believe that technology has come a great way since then. The whole equipment looked very dated (to say it nice), the light that dentists use to shine into your mouth was duct taped all over… the spitting bowl was nothing less than a funnel connected to a vacuum tube that I had to hold by myself, everything in this dentist office has seen better times (in the 60’s), all colors faded or chipped away… the chair looked like it has seen lots and I mean LOTS of patients during its life of at least 40 years. However, I would be willing to overlook the devastating state of his office if MR Freedman at least would have been a good Dr. I was very much disappointed and my gums even more. From the moment I sat down, Mr. Freedman seemed to be chased by the devil… he did not even introduce himself and started right away. Scraping away and I could feel the blood flowing… he was friendly though… but thats no excuse since he is (I think at least) a dentist and not a telemarketer! It was the worst experience I ever had at a dentist.
