Joseph S Sachs, DDS

Cracked a molar and was seen within hours. Dr Sachs re-​shaped/​prepped the molar for a crown that was made on-​the-​spot/​in-​house within an hour… and it was perfect.
Crown’s in his office are made within an hour using a laser wand measuring device (CAD 3D?) that perfectly replicates the exact dimensions of your tooth (before and after re-​shape prepping). This minimizes your time spent in office, avoiding multiple visits.
Time saved, excellent results, great staff, and one-​stop shop.
Thanks much to Dr Sachs and staff!
PS-​The crown is PERFECT!

I went to Dr. Sachs for 8 years while I lived in New York. Couldn’t recommend the team enough. You’re in and out quickly and efficiently. He doesn’t push for unnecessary elective or cosmetic things. Highly recommend if you are looking.

Dr Sachs is by far my favorite dentist and is a keeper! Him and his staff are very professional and personable. Office is very clean and cozy. I HIGHLY recommend Dr Sachs to my friends, family and anyone who may ask!

Dr Sachs and Dr Cruz are amazing dentists! Take that from someone who really has despised going to dentists for most of his life. They both have a very calming manner and are honest in thier manner. Dr Sachs and Dr Cruz are both extremely thorough and dedicated. The whole support staff are also very professional too.
I have been going here since 2005 and would recommend to ALL my family and friends. The office is spotless. This is the only dentist that I wish to go to in NYC.

I really think that five stars is hard to earn… And I have been to more Dentists than I would care to ever know in my life. Dr. Sachs definitely earns every single star!
Okay… not cheap! He is a NYC dentist. But he is worth every penny. He looked at my teeth and could tell exactly which dentist had done which work. He has a great way of making conversation to keep your mind off the work — but truthfully he also one of the best at administering the shot of numbing that I have ever had.
His work is impeccable and his office is very clean. two things that are very important to me! His staff is very pleasant and easy to work with.
I am so happy I found his office and unfortunately I will be seeing them again… but I am happy to have them.

Amazing first visit, best dentist visit I have ever had. Lovely friendly reception staff in a nice building, quick and efficient with paperwork. Very quick service on x rays again very friendly. Wonderful hygienist who did a fantastic job and Dr Sachs is just so nice and makes you feel very welcome. Explained all my options for work and possible whitening and cosmetic options and exactly what insurance covered and did not.
Great great experience

I have gotten my teeth cleaned here twice. Both times I was able to make an appointment in a reasonable amount of time. They assist very nicely and the process of getting started there is very easy, as is check in each time I go.
The staff is extremely friendly and see you on-​time. The dental hygienists I have had are gentle, thorough and very nice. They know exactly what to do and do it in a timely manner. The dentist then comes in and spends time reviewing, and chatting. Both dentists I have had are very friendly and knowledgeable. They have made suggestions for anything I have asked and take their time to answer my questions.
I would highly recommend Joseph S Sachs to anyone!

Excellent the whole staff. Friendly knowledgeable and courteous. They take care of there patients. I was referred by a coworker and very happy with them.

I had been using another dentist for many years and have since become a loyal patient of Dr. Sachs. He consistently offers excellent guidance, is gracious and knowledgeable, and has a marvelous personality. I have recommended Dr. Sachs and his team to friends, as I am confident they too would appreciate the terrific service. I was one of those people with a phobia of the dentist. But knowing Dr. Sachs almost makes me look forward to a dentist visit!

Dr. Sachs is absolutely fantastic. And so is Dr. Cruz and ALL the staff.
When my front tooth (veneer) cracked a week before my trip to Asia, no one would fix it. «Oh, that will take two weeks,» several dentists told me. In three business days, Dr. Sachs fixed the broken tooth, took impressions and got the new veneer in place. And it looks gorgeous. Stunning.
Dr. Sachs is a brilliant dentist. And he is charming and gracious – and very funny! All the staff is warm and caring. And he has all the latest equipment. I wish I had discovered him years ago.

I read the last review and I’m wondering if there is an imminent invasion of pod people and Dr. Sachs was the first earthling taken.
Because I have the polar opposite opinion of the practice. And I haven’t been there since 2013 and the delay in my review is because I wanted to wait until I got my records moved to a new dentist.
[A paragraph of my review has been removed by me. I still feel they are true but Dr. Sachs considered them a personal attack. I never want a review of mine to be considered a personal and I believe that he is genuine in his belief. My review rating stands]
Bear in mind I was no first time patient. In fact I had been getting my dentistry though his practice for 10 years. So if you need cleanings, they are great. The hygienists are capable. And can he install a crown, and do it fast? yes. But you better bring your checkbook.

After a long search I finally found a great dentist in NYC. Staff is super friendly and professional, office is easy to get to — right outside the 1 Train subway stop on 18^th — hygienist was pleasant and did a thorough cleaning. And Dr. Sachs is the man, very, very cool and down to earth. He had me splitting up as he was drilling away in my mouth.
Big difference between Dr. Sachs and other places I went to is that I always felt like they were trying to sell me something at other places and the pitch was sometimes high pressure and patently false. The work did not need to be done. Dr. Sachs and his staff were very professional and did not subject me to any of the aforementioned chicanery. Solid 5 and will not be going anywhere else as long as I live in NYC.

My doctor here is Dr. Cruz, and I give this place 5 stars because he is just amazing. I’ve had 3 root canals here and I didn’t think it could go as easily as they have.
Dr. Cruz is very informative and makes sure you’re aware of everything that’s about to happen with the procedure. He’s comforting and wants to make sure you don’t feel pain and are comfortable. I definitely recommend him as a dentist, he makes me feel better about the mess of a tooth situation I have. He always has a way of making you feel like your problem can be solved and that you’ll be okay in the end.
I hate going to the dentist. I once hadn’t gone in over 5 years, but he makes it worth it!

New patient. Saw them on same day, non emergency, just a lost filling. Everyone was friendly. Dentists very thorough clean and xrays. Got replacement filling 3 days later and felt it was very well done. Would highly recommend.

I have been going to Dr. Sachs for over 15 years now. O.k. there is sometimes a long wait but that is because he wants to take for every patient and he wants his work to be perfect. I could not say a bad word about him. He always did fit me in if i needed an appointment.

I have been seeing Dr. Sachs for about two years and I am a fan. I hate going to the dentist, so it’s no small recommendation on my part to recommend this office. Here are some of the reasons you should go to Dr. Sachs:
— Good work on my teeth, for the most part painlessly. I have had cavities refilled, chips fixed, a bridge, and a deep cavity filled that Dr. Sach’s saved from having to be a root canal.
— Dr. Sach’s definitely takes his time to make sure the work he is doing is perfect. We spent a lot of time making sure my bridge was perfect, and I really appreciate that, as it cost me a lot of money.
— Dr. Sach’s uses the newest technology. Gone is the putty to take an impression of your teeth. Hello laser technology to perfectly map your teeth and create the perfect custom cap, or bridge in my case.
— Dr. Sach’s is a bit of a chatty-​kathy, and I find this to be a comforting trait in someone digging around in my mouth with a mini power drill.
— Dr. Sach’s responds to calls to his emergency service pretty darn quickly.
— Good recommendations for specialist. I needed all four wisdom teeth pulled and Dr. Sachs’s hooked me up with Dr. Ward (see my Unilocal review), who is a god among oral surgeons.
— Danny, the Dental Hygienists has a good attitude and does not berate you for your recent imperfect flossing habits. He gently nudges you to floss more regularly, dropping hints throughout the cleaning on ways to incorporate more flossing into your daily routine, and by the end of the appointment I always leave swearing I will take his advice and floss more.
The only downside to this office is sometimes you end up waiting a bit past your scheduled time to be seen.

I have been a patient of Dr. Sachs for a little over a year now, and highly recommend him and his practice.
Over the years I had developed a bit of a habit of being afraid of going to the Dentist, and my visits to this office are really changing that — amazing!
Their office is conveniently located in Chelsea, and the work they do is efficient, friendly, and feels up-​to-​the-​minute in terms of equipment and technology. Dr. Sachs himself is always a pleasure, and his staff is as well.
Highly recommended!

I chose convenience over expertise, and boy was I almost Shanghaied. Proximity does not pay, in fact it can cost you.
Moral of the story: Dr. Sachs tried to sell me on «Invisalign, and teeth whitening» and also told me that I needed a root canal and a crown for why I saw him. He quoted me $ 2,000+ to fix my cracked tooth. Things were tight for me, so I decided to wait.
Meanwhile my tooth broke while in Miami. When I saw a dentist down there he told me I did not need a root canal. Then he fixed my tooth, without a crown, and I’ve been fine for over a year. The bill: $ 220.00.
Dr. Sachs must make quite a lot of money, thank goodness not from me.
Pass.

If you need an appointment and it is an emergency and your not currently a patient, this is not the place for you! I was treated well when I called and was told that they would call me back after speaking with the doctor. When I called back later the doctor still did not have time to look at his schedule. No call back. It was the weekend, so I thought, no worries, I’m not in pain, they will call back on Monday, I’m sure. But Monday came and I thought I need to be proactive, so I called. Again the staff was very nice, and assured me that she thought she could fit me in the next day. But again I was told that they would call me back. Now it’s several days later and still no call back. If I were to guess, (my issuance is the only insurance that they accept) they don’t want to deal with insurance. If this is the case, I ask that they ask to be removed from accepting insurance.
I almost called back and told them I didn’t have any insurance. I wonder if they would quickly have an appointment for me then. But, I’d hate to be given poor treatment once they found out I did. So on to a new and better dentist!
Good luck making an appointment!
