We contacted the practice because our 95 year-old mom, an Alzheimers patient in memory care, was having mild discomfort in her mouth. They did a quick assessment and immediately recommended 3 extractions. A few months later when she again experienced mild discomfort, extraction of 3 teeth was again recommended. No x-rays were ever taken. When we sent an email with detailed questions about the recommended procedure, it was almost a week before we received a reply. When we finally did, none of our questions were answered; instead, we were told to bring her to an oral surgeon. As the name implies, My Geriatric Dentist focuses on the highly vulnerable geriatric population, many of whom do not have advocates. The fact that they quickly recommended extractions and were unwilling to address our questions raises numerous red flags.

Everyone is so kind here. My mom is in a nursing home and they took the time to help the residents there. My mom being one of the residents. Her dentures did not fit well and always were loose. Dr. Blumofe took care of my mom and now she has a beautiful smile and her dentures fit. Thank you so much to Dr. Blumofe and Jamie for your kindness and help.

I've worked with Dr. Blumofe, her associates and professional, caring team for the last four years. As dentists for our memory care assisted living community, they are exceptionally patient and engaging with our residents. They not only provide excellent dental services, but have developed trusting, personalized relationships with our residents, as well. We also appreciate the times they've been available for special visits, when urgent dental care has been needed. The office team has worked diligently with us to make sure all pre-visit arrangements and details are addressed and handled smoothly. Everyone's communications are thorough and reliable. I wish to express our gratitude to Dr. Blumofe and her staff for providing excellent service to our residents and their families. I am confident in recommending them with a 5-star review.

I am Medical Power of Attorney for my dear friend Paula Weiner, who is 85 and lives in an wonderul assisted living facility, Wesley Place. Paula cannot stand or walk, and so needs all medical-dental to come to her. Dr. Blumofe and MyGeriatric Dentist examined Paula's broken upper denture, and determined she needed a new one. They took impressions and fit her new denture at Wesley Place, and treated Paula with total respect as they created the needed denture. It fits wonderfully, and Paula is now off of 100% pureed foods and back on some solid foods! And smiling bigger than ever! Thansk to Wesley Place for arranging for MyGeriatric Dentist, and to Dr Blumofe and her wonderul staff for treating Paula with such care and respect!
