Aaron R Polinsky, DDS

First I would like to say the staff was friendly but I guess im not there to visit the dentist to make friends. the Bronx location was a dump. It was dirty, unkept and in a bad neighborhood. The equipment was primitive at best. I went there because I was having pain with a tooth. I waited an hour to sit in the chair all to get a nasty impatient dentist that complained my insurance doesn’t pay enough and anything he does when he touched me needs to be paid out of pocket? I was actually relieved that he did nothing because I wouldn’t want him to work on my mouth anyway after meeting him and seeing how unprofessional he is. Other dentists cover the services he complains about. I have been reading other reviews about him and I can see this is a pattern. I will not ever go to him again nor my family either. Stay Away.

The «cleaning» that my insurance paid for consisted of him looking around my mouth for cavities, using the gritty toothpaste and showing me the door. He told me scraping was not included and that I would have to pay $ 500+ dollars to have that done. This has never happened with any other dentist I’ve visted — nor the one I visited right after him to actually DO a proper cleaning. STEER CLEAR!
