Joshua M Greenberg, DMD, PC

Dr Greenburg,
Of course you would remember it differently! I spent alot of my money and got nothing for it. Thats the plain and simple truth. You did tell me that there were no guarantees. You also told me if anything went wrong with the service you performed, you would make it right. Remember that conversation?
In the end, all you did was push me off to another dentist because you did’nt want to deal with me. That by the way was a HUGE additional expense to me, NOT you.
Thanks for the reply, years later…

This review comes with mixed feelings. I truly like Dr. Greenberg, especially since he hails from NYC prior to Harrisburg and I expect his standards to be high.
The pros:
1. I believe that Dr. Greenberg is a good periodontist.
2. The office can schedule visits pretty quickly and the times I went, had little to no wait time. In fact, I may have been the only one there most times.
3. The office is maintained very nicely. Dr. Greenberg may be the only dentist, at least in this Camp Hill office. He has monitors and videos that go over the different treatments. He also has cool giveaways branded with his name like dental floss, gauze and the like.
The cons:
1. I thought he was expensive and this factor, among others discussed in point 2, spurred me to get second opinions. When I got the second opinion, I was told that most of what he recommended was not necessary. Periodontal work is done in mouth quadrants so basically, I only needed periodontal work done on one quadrant instead of all four (at $ 895/​quadrant). Since I needed to squeeze this procedure into last calendar/​benefits year, I went with Dr. Greenberg.
2. His office manager was really the make or break for me. I thought that she, over the course of my visits, procedure and follow up, was rude and overbearing. It got to the point where I left their office in silent anger because I had to bite my tongue. Uncomfortable. I told Dr. Greenberg about my experiences and while he acknowledged there was a problem, I never got a direct apology. Only after time passed and it was clear that I was never coming back, did I get phone calls and a card from the office manager but primarily to get back my business.
3. The periodontal assistant was not as abrasive but clearly lacking in the manners department. She yawned, open mouthed and unapologetic, in my face three times while counseling me on my after-​care.
I hate giving negative reviews but I guess I got a little ticked off when I found out that Dr. Greenberg mis-​diagnosed my dental issue which was solved by root canal (my first one ever) and not periodontics. I had even gone in an extra visit because I was concerned that the area was infected and was told that this was a common result after periodontal surgery. I could have saved some money and a lot of pain had I gone somewhere else.
I had the best dentist (Dr. Joseph Levy) while I was in the NYC area who I trusted completely and went to for 10 years. Since moving here, I have ‘interviewed’ several dentists. Costs, locations and dental plan coverage vary across the board. However, the one thing that came through loud and clear is that dentistry is a business and the patient is the consumer. I wish more dental offices knew that.
