As promised! Decided to start the new year out right and find me a dentist in my area. John and his staff were amazing. Very knowledgable and professional with a side of humor that’s right up my alley especially for fitting me in at 7am next day. Thanks again!

Again, Dr. Pisacane and his team exceeded expectations. Their professionalism, courtesy, and genuine concern for the patients as individuals sets Willow Glen Dentistry apart from other dental offices.

I have come in to see Dr. Pisacane twice and have had a great experience both times. The receptionist, Shanté, is very sweet and helpful over the phone. In person she is very pleasant and always offers you a water when you arrive for your appointment. The dental hygienists are also very nice. Dr. Pisacane has a great personality and he is very good at what he does. I was expecting to be in the office for 3+ hours and was out in 1.5. The next day, I even received a follow-​up call to see how I was doing. The office is very clean and aesthetically appealing. I highly recommend this dentist to all those in the Bay area. It is very hard to find a knowledgeable dentist, with a good personality, good team, and a great office. Dr. Pisacane is the guy to see!

I love this place! Dr. Piscane and his team are all lovely and you can tell that they are always making the extra effort and thinking of ways to improve their service. My husband and I moved from San Jose to San Francisco a year ago, but we still drive down every 6 months for our cleaning because we like this place so much!

Dr. Pisacane and his staff were very friendly and efficient as usual. I have been going to Willow Glen Dentistry since he took it over from Dr. Gianetto. I would recommend this Dental Office to anyone looking for a referral.

Dr. Pisacane is a wonderful dentist, not only is he very good at what he does he is funny as well. A great staff all of them always friendly and helpful. He has been my dentist since I moved to Willow Glen and I am so glad that I found him! I recently had a dental emergency and he worked me right in and got me taken care of in no time. Appointments are no problem either, so check them out you will not regret it!

This place is the BEST!!! I love Dr. P’s staff. Everyone is wonderful and experienced. Anytime I have a question they always have an answer; I personally love that. I am new to CA and am a stay at home mom of two little ones. I bring them BOTH with me and the staff (mostly Shante) watches them. I hate doing that to them, but I do love that they let me when I have no choice. Dr. P is also really great with my 3 year old son!!! He’s pretty much great with EVERYONE. Its never a dull moment there. Everyone is so funny and great to talk to I never want to leave. :-) The office is always clean and organized.

Dr. P and the entire team are great! They are absolutely welcoming and extremely helpful in explaining the intricacies of dental health in a practical, simple manner.

I’m writing this review for my husband, I made an apt for my hubby, he arrived,
Insurance information already handled. Had a thorough cleaning by the hygienist, mind you he was long due for one! She did great, and «had her work cut out for the day» thank you! Dr. Piscane was very personable and out going. My hubby even mentioned he’s never had a funny dentist before! So that’s a plus! I would recommend this place and I will be here myself soon!

I wish everyone who reads this could know the depth of my sentiment. I had not seen the dentist in a major number of years and found myself in a situation where I needed to see someone immediately. I called the many many dentist in my care plan and even though I expressed the urgency, no one could see me for a month. My husband is a Pisacane patient and on a Friday at 5:15 he, against all my urging, called his dentist on his personal cell phone.
It is going to sound silly, but my fears became almost non existent at that moment. Not only did he answer his phone, but called in a prescription which took down the swelling (80% of the pain) in two days and then called me on Sunday, to ask if I felt I needed to come in that day.
To say this dentist cares is an understatement. I must admit that I had taken so long to see the dentist because… I HAD TAKEN SO LONG TO SEE THE DENTIST… I was embarrassed to get the results of the exam. Dr. Pisacane made me feel as if it was no big deal. He even went so far as to joke that my dental care was not going to send him on his world wide luxury vacation. I had taken care of things well enough to only get him to Milpitas.
Not true, but greatly appreciated.
Wonderful doctor!!!

First I would like to say I hate the dentist. I’ve had the same one my whole life and was scared to go to someone new. As soon as I arrived I knew this was going to be a good visit. Dr. Pisacane and his staff are hilarious and caring people who put you at ease immediately. I loved that he showed me (with a mirror) exactly what he was doing during my checkup.
The hygienists are so sweet and genuinely nice people. I actually stuck around to chat a bit after my 2 hour appointment!
I told my husband he was in for a treat at his appointment next week. Very happy customer!

Just wanted to write a few lines about the amazing experiance my wife and I had this week, we are new to the area and heard about Dr’s practice from a few coworkers, they were 100% right, it was probably the best all around dental experiance ever.
His Hygienist Kathy communicated the state of my mouth and gave me a few brushing tips that will help me in the future and she stopped the busy doctor as he was passing by and showed him a chip in my tooth which he fixed right when I was finished with my cleaning. How many dentists would do that???

Dr John has been our family dentist for years. He takes care of my husband, me, and our two children. He is always professional and approachable !. Just this past week, I called to see if I could get in to see him to check out a dental issue right away. jjennifer was so great and got me in to see Dr John that very same day. Dr John also understands that for some, going to the dentist can be a bit scary… he always has a smile on his face, and has such a great sense of humor, he puts you right at ease. We also really love our dental hygenist, Leah. I know this sounds crazy, but it is actually fun to go to his office… and they take great care of our dental needs. Dr Pisacane and staff… YOU ROCK!!!

Dr. John and his staff have become like family to us. My wife and I, along with our two daughters have been seeing him for years and have had nothing but great experiences. I never feel rushed in his office and the quality of care is beyond measure. He uses the latest technologies (like ceric –sp?- which makes your crowns right in the office. I know it works as I’ve had to have one replaced (childhood dentist gave it to me), and a couple added (yea I know, floss). Each time I’ve been in and out in one visit. My kids are actually happy to go see Dr. John, but I think that’s because they get cookies at the front counter when they are done. All in all, he’s a great dentist, and a great part of the Willow Glen Community. I’d clap if this wasn’t text!

Dr. John Pisacane installed a crown that fits terribly. The crown fits like a mushroom cap — i.e., the crown has an overhang that is larger than the stem underneath. Worse yet, there are gaps between the crown and the tooth that trap food.
UPDATE:
During a follow-​up visit for corrections, the attitude was hostile and nothing was improved. Because the crown traps food particles, I still have to floss and rinse 2x/​day to keep my breath from smelling as if I were diseased.
UPDATE #2:
X-​rays from my new dentist show the problems, and the crown must be replaced. My new dentist was quite surprised that John Pisacane did not replace it.
Bottom line:
I experienced disappointing dental work that truly deserves one star. A return visit seeking solutions was unpleasant and yielded no improvement. NOTE: The firm’s fees are often dramatically higher than what Delta Dental will accept as a maximum charge for reimbursement calculations. High prices, disappointing work, and no willingness to make corrections left a bitter taste in my mouth.

I gave this dentist 4 stars because he and his office staff were very friendly and they got my son in quickly. I didn’t give it all 5 because he could not fix the problem we had.
We were driving thru San Jose from out of state when my sons cap came off his front tooth. We were headed to a family reunion, needed it fixed quickly. The Dentist got us in quickly, and he ‘cemented’ the cap back in place. Unfortunately, the very next day the cap fell off again. At this point we were already out of state, and unable to get back in to see him. However, the dentist returned our money since we couldn’t get back in and have him try to fix it.

Dr. John Pisacane is the best dentist I have ever been to! He is professional but hilarious at the same time! Willow Glen Dentistry is located on Lincoln Avenue right next door to Bank of America in Downtown Willow Glen. Dr. John definitely knows his stuff and it makes me feel good knowing he is taking care of my pearly whites. I also love the office and the staff that works here! They are really nice and friendly and I love coming here for my checkups. Thank you Dr. John for making my smile happy!

Dr. John is an amazing dentist, and not just because he’s from New York. His office staff is both friendly and professional, and he makes sure to spend time with you on every visit. On my first visit, he asked about my previous dental history and his office manager went out of her way to get the records from my previous dentist in Boston. The cleanings I’ve had done there have been great, and he has been honest about what treatment I need and don’t need, rather than pushing procedures at me.
His office also uses up-​to-​date technology both for dental care and for managing medical records. Vee, the amazing office assistant, also does a great job dealing with billing and the notoriously terrible dental insurance plans that those of us lucky to even have dental insurance are stuck with (thanks for being so cheap, Delta Dental!)
Best of all, Dr. John keeps his patients coming back. There are free cookies and candy at reception!
