Testimonials

“One of my favorite dentist to go to! I’ve only had one other favorite dentist and Dentistry by Design has become my new favorite. He is absolutely wonderful. The entire office is patient and kind. They always give me an appointment reminder and a follow up call. They made me comfortable while pregnant and post pregnancy. I really look forward to my dental visits. I trust this office and know their recommendations for dental work. It’s worth noting they have all the coolest gadgets and accommodations! Such a pleasant experience every time.”

“As soon as walking in the door, everyone is extremely kind and very welcoming. The environment is very cozy and welcoming. I spent most of my time with my hygienist Courtney and she was absolutely wonderful. Very personable funny and informative. Made sure I understood everything that was going on. My biggest compliment is that they worked so well around my five month old daughter. Being a stay at home mom I have to bring her everywhere I go and they made that appointment very easy and fast for both of us. This was a wonderful office and a great first experience. I would recommend this place to everyone.”

“From the minute you walk in the front door, Dr. Gilsdorf and his team are so friendly and personable! I’ve been going to them for a few years now and I’ve never had a bad experience! They are always so welcoming and I can tell he and all of his team of staff genuinely care about my teeth and overall oral health because they walk me through what they find on my x-rays or if they are doing work to fix a tooth he’s so great at telling me what he’s doing as he’s fixing the tooth which helps to take away all of my anxiety! I’ve never had a bad hygienist here either, and I’ve seen a few different ones! I used to be scared of the dentist growing up but he and his team/staff have done amazing at changing that for me and I look forward to my appointments now!”

“Literally everyone here from the staff at the front desk, techs, and hygienists, are professional, polite, very knowledgeable and genuinely happy to help you. Dr G did wonderful work and was super efficient with his time so it was done quickly and right the first time. They were acutely aware of my anxiety with dental procedures and pain and they honest were so patient with me and reassuring. I will absolutely only see Dr G and Dentistry By Design. I HIGHLY encourage anyone to just try them if you need any type of cleaning or correction. The front desk staff are super friendly and scheduling is a breeze, they are also really good with insurance and so quick about getting everything sorted and planned for you.”

“The entire staff is amazing and the work they do is even better! I truly couldn’t ask for a better experience. I have been seeing Dentistry by Design for many years now and I’m so grateful for their professionalism and dedication. I came to them with needs of fillings, crowns, and an implant on top of my regular cleanings and each time they had a plan and showed so much compassion during a challenging time for me.

I get constant compliments on my smile at work and if I worked locally, I would be sending everyone to dentistry by design!

Now my husband and children go here and they are equally as happy with their services and care.

Dr. Gilsdorf is a true professional and his work is spectacular.

Courtney and Mario are both so fantastic.

Lauren and the front desk staff are on top of it. They have handled all my questions and insurance needs beautifully!

If you’re looking for a dentist in the Manhattan area, dentistry by design would be a wonderful choice.”

“Honestly can say that the staff at Dentistry By Design are amazing at what they do. From calling to make an appointment, checking in, having my teeth cleaned and examined to scheduling my next appointment was a great experience. Dr.Bret knows what he is doing and is very honest about everything. My husband also goes here and he was grinding his teeth a lot at night. Dr.Bret recommend he get an NTI and after using it for a couple weeks his headaches stopped, and his jaw pain was minimal to almost gone. Best dentistry place in town by far!! Thank you to all the staff for making our dentistry experience amazing.”

“My cleaning with dentistry by design was the best dental experience I’ve ever had; starting with Vanessa at the front desk…very welcoming and thorough…then I was taken to the back for x-rays (I don’t remember the young lady’s name) very quickly took a lot of images to set up for the cleaning and exam. Amanda gave me an excellent cleaning then the doctor came in and gave me a run down of what I need to get done and Lauren insured that I was all set at the end. Top notch service!!!!!”

Aubrey J.

“I have lived in 4 different states. Been to countless dentist offices and I have never had such an amazing experience as I do EVERY TIME I walk into this office. The entire staff is extremely nice, professional and explain everything. Plus they work around your schedule! They’re also wonderful with my kids. They believe in a no fear atmosphere and I love that. The dentist Dr. Gilsdorf is funny, gentle and very patient with me during my fillings. I didn’t even feel the local anesthetic! I seriously can’t thank you guys enough!”
Megan R.

“I cannot say enough great things about Dentistry By Design! From the moment I walked in the door everyone was friendly and helpful. I’m terrified of the dentist (even getting a cleaning), but they make my visits very comfortable. My favorite part is the heated neck pillow and warm, scented towels! I highly recommend this office – you will not be disappointed.”
Samantha W.

“I have never had such a wonderful experience at a dentist office. The staff was so welcoming and genuinely concerned about my well-being and they did everything they could to ease my mind and nerves. It felt like a family there and you can tell the whole office has great morale and they love what they do. Not to mention my cleaning and check up was excellent. Thank you Dentistry by Design!”
