Went to him a few years ago. Instead of provide me with the proper service of a root canal he chose the cheaper option FORME(or so he said). Two years ago, I found out that my tooth was rotten and that my nerve was decaying. The new X-ray found that the bones area around my upper mouth & lower nose was internally infected with decay of the nerves from the bad job that Dr. Shapiro did. My new dentist said that it would take years to heal if I got rid of the infection and I did. I appreciate the fact that he was trying to save me money but when you have insurance, he didn’t need to help me save money. Also, if you in for cavity fillings, he would give you the nasty metallic looking stuff instead of the ivory(more expensive & better quality) stuff. Who wants to smile or laugh with their teeth showing black metallic stuff all over? Do yourself a favor and look for better dentists. If you want to go through what I went through then go to him. Also, they sometimes make appointments for you without your consent or knowledge. Then they call you the day before to REMIND you and if you cannot make it, they will charge you a fee. WOW… thanks but no thanks!
