I've been a patient of Dr. Garber & Associates of Lexington Ma for more than 10 years. I can't say enough about him, his office, dental hygienists and professional staff. They provide the most proficient, effective and caring service I've used in my 87 years of experience. As a recent example of Dr. Garber's professional staff, Dr. Matthew Lann performed a biopsy of my inner cheek. He had to take an unusually large section for analysis. The biopsy and subsequent recovery would normally be expected to be a very painful experience. Dr. Lann was concerned enough to follow up immediately after the surgery, but I had very little pain, & the sutures have dissolved. This review may appear to be an overstatement, but I urge you to research other reviews. It is only my experience that speaks here.

The dentist did not respect patient's time, I waited for half an hour after the teeth cleaning but the dentist still did not show up. It was the definitely the worst experience out of all the dental offices I've been to.
