Phenomenal dentist! And he even calls later to see how you are! You don't get that type of personalized care anywhere anymore!

My father started seeing Dr. Finkle almost 30 years ago, and ever since, he (and his crew) have been an essential part of my family's health care providers. Now the excellent Dr. Polack has joined the team and Sugarloaf Signature Dentistry remains our trusted family dentist. The office atmosphere is welcoming and relaxing, it is managed well, the hygienists are excellent, and the entire team is committed to providing a positive environment for their patients and staff. Thankful to have benefitted from years of friendship and their expert dental care!

The best experience you could have at a dental appointment. It is a good feeling to be some place where "All" the employees appear to love what they do and do it well!! 10 stars!!!!!!

I love how they treat their clients/patients. They're very patient, and try to make you as comfortable as possible. This is my first time at this dentist and they're better than the dentist I used to go to. Also they try to make conversation to try to make you utterly most comfortable while they clean and examine your teeth. They explain things much more better than my dentist did. I'm 17 and they are so kind, I always miss going to the dentist here, it's like seeing friends you see every 6 months. So I'd recommend 10/10.

My first visit. The staff were very nice. They did a full check up on my gum and teeth and listed what my teeth need. Spent a good amout of time to check every details. Declared clearly how much money I need to pay out of my pocket for the next visit and then scheduled me for cleaning and some fillings.
