Reviews

"Tooth extraction. Went very smoothly from beginning to end. Dr Delgado told me each step he was going to take, so I knew what to expect. Discharge instructions were very clear. I was given extra gauze pads for bleeding, but there was almost none. Receptionist contacted my HMO to order post procedure medications, which were ready for pickup by the time I got to the pharmacy a half hour later. When anesthesia wore off, only moderate pain, and hydrocodone reduced it to practically nothing. And they played classical music over the sound system! 👍"

"I was referred to Drs. Delgado & Kuzmik, PC by my primary care dentist for the purpose of checking a questionable patch of tissue for which photos and x-rays could not provide definitive answers. I was able to get the appointment within a day of calling, was offered an appointment at the office that was closer to my home, and was also able to fill out the myriad patient intake forms online to reduce wait time on the day of the appointment. The front office staff was simply wonderful and efficient. Wait time in the office was less than five minutes after arrival. After taking a look-see at the area in question, Dr. Delgado recommended taking a biopsy of the tissue for laboratory review, though he did not seem concerned that it was anything serious. When I said that I would make an appointment for the biopsy, he indicated that it could be done right then and there! (No time to get worked up and nervous about anything.) They checked my insurance on the spot and determined that I would be covered and presented me with the release forms to sign. Dr. Delgado performed the biopsy on the spot and was very kind and gentle during the process. His surgical assistant, Jennifer, was very caring and efficient as well, putting me totally at ease. The procedure was done in very short order, and Jennifer presented me with the best set of post-procedure instructions I have ever received. No after effects at all! Best of all? My appointment started at 2:00, and I was in the car on the way home at 2:40. All in all, this was a great experience, and I would recommend this practice without hesitation. Thank you!"

"Dr. Delgado and his staff are true professionals. They are simultaneously skilled and friendly. They made the extraction of a molar as quick and pain free as possible. Their follow up instructions were very helpful. I would recommend the Eisenhower Ave staff and Dr. Delgado without hesitation."
