Who knew oral surgery does NOT have to be painful. ????????

I have had a very positive experience working with Dr. Steinberg & his staff. They are thorough & compassionate, taking the time to discuss my diagnosis & treatment. I highly recommend this practice!

Dr Steinberg and his assistant were wonderful! They were patient and kind since I was extremely anxious to have 2 teeth pulled and a bone graft. My thanks to them both for the excellent care I received.

Great dentist spinning image of Russell peters the comedian, but def the place, don’t go to your regular dentist juS for a referral and bill, go see Dr.Michael Proothi first

Dr. Proothi is very knowledgeable and friendly. Glad he was able to perform my surgery.

I had an emergency visit with Dr. Proothi yesterday and he made me feel completely comfortable under the circumstances. The staff is very welcoming and calming as well.....would recommend him in a heartbeat!

In a time of discomfort & fear of surgery , Dr Proothi truly made me feel calm & knowledge. He has a wonderful warm personality, & extremely knowledgeable.

My first encounter with Dr.Proothi was a very pleasurable one. He also introduced me to his partner. They’re both working on my case. Hopefully they will resolve my issues I’ve been suffering with for several months.

Dr. Proothi is an amazing oral surgeon. His staff are polite, kind and accomplished. I am so grateful that I have a place to have procedures where i have 100% confidence.

Excellent at what he does and personable also. Would highly recommend.

My daughter and I had a GREAT experience with Dr. Proothi and his office staff.

I cannot recommend Dr. Proothi highly enough. He is an excellent surgeon and also possesses a uniquely personable bedside manner which set me at ease during a procedure which I had been nervous about. He took the time to explain each facet of the procedure to me in detail and patiently answered all of my questions before beginning. He also assured me after the procedure that I could call him at any time, and always made time to see me in the office whenever I needed for follow up appointments and check-ins in the weeks that followed. His office was a clean, well organized, and professional space, and his office staff and assistants were very nice and helpful every time I visited or called. It is clear to me that Dr. Proothi is passionate about his work and his patients. Despite the unpleasant circumstances that brought me to him, I had a great experience every time I saw him because he brings enthusiasm and confidence into every appointment. I am so grateful for all that he did for me, and would recommend him to anyone looking for an oral surgeon who will care about them as an individual and resolve any maxillofacial issue they may be facing.

I just received an invoice from "...Sunrise Medical Laboratories" in the amount of $100.00 which states "Sunrise Medical Laboratories has received and processed your physician's order for Covid-19 testing, and we were not given any insurance information for you..." It also states that the "Requesting Physician" was "Dr. Michael Proothi." To the best of my knowledge I have never met "Dr. Michael Proothi"...I do not know "Dr. Michael Proothi"...nor is "Dr. Michael Proothi" my physician. Bogus? Scam?

I had been miserable for years until I met Dr Proothi. His staff was friendly and helpful from the very first phone call and his attitude has always been to put me and my care first no matter what.

Dr. Proothi is hands down the BEST surgeon. Not only is he extremely skilled in his profession but his bedside manner is impeccable. I had BOTH T.M.J joints replaced in the middle of the COVID pandemic and he never once made me feel alone or scared. Dr. Proothi doesn't treat you like a patient, he treats you like a family friend. Best decision I ever made was choosing Dr. Proothi. Anytime I thought something was wrong, he and Jenna were so quick to answer my questions or concerns. I am forever in their debt. Thank you guys!!

Dr Proothi operated on my teenage son’s broken jaw this summer. His bedside manner and his skill as a surgeon are exemplary. Dr. Proothi was able to avoid jaw wiring. My son has made a full recovery and without any facial incisions. We are so grateful to you Dr. Proothi.

Today i went to Dr. Proothi for the first time to have a tooth pulled for an implant. The process went flawlessly, no waiting, staff very friendly. Dr. Proothi explained everything before he started and answered all my questions. I highly recommend him for all your oral surgery healthcare.

This Dentist is a Fraud! He makes you take a $ 250 Xray and it doesn’t even have any relations to your problem or even see the Problem. It’s his way of making fast money with the visit. Which could be around $ 650 when you first walk thru the door without any Follow up that fee is separate , then he will bill your insurance CO high rates! With procedures you don’t even need. He lies to you and keeps you waiting for him to help you with your problem. The girls that work there lie as well! What you tell them! They change the story and then write lies in the chart to back Their story! He is all about taking your money and not addressing your concerns or fixing your problem. If you have big money to drop and want no dental care and get the run around , then This Oral surgeon is for you. Thank you This Dentist is a Fraud!

This Dentist has his staff write these reviews. The office is Dirty! And the staff is very rude and unprofessional .The doctor doesn’t take the time to listen and just talks above you. You make an appointment and you still have to wait at least 30-45 mins to be seen. This Doctor made my boyfriend come back 3 times for his problem and this Doctor still didn’t fix his problem and billed his insurance thousands of dollars. We finally found a great dentist and in just 1 visit my boyfriend problem was fixed. I don’t recommend this dentist to anyone. FYI I had to give it 1 star or I couldn’t write this review . I would of giving it zero. Thanks This Dentist has his staff write these reviews. The office is Dirty!

Skilled, compassionate, and honest. He actually listens to your specific concerns. Thank you, doc. I’ll always remember your kindness moving forward. I wish you the best, always. Sincerely, jake

Dr. Proothi and his staff are outstanding. He has a wonderful bedside manner and is so considerate and caring. His staff from front desk to his nurses are all wonderful. Highly recommend.

Dr. Proothi and his staff were amazing! My 4yr old daughter needed to be sedated for a single tooth extraction and I was a nervous wreck. We went in for a consult and I was expecting the worst from my daughter from past experiences at the dentist. They did a 360° X-ray which was so much less traumatic for my little one. She right away felt extremely comfortable. Dr. Proothi was kind and gentle with my daughter, she even told me “mommy I really liked him”! When it was determined the tooth needed to come out ASAP he squeezed us in his schedule and and walked me through the whole process and exactly what to expect. I was a nervous wreck because sedation on a child worried me but Dr. Proothi and his staff assured me that it everything would be ok! When we arrived to the office they had on Disney Jr. for my daughter (sometimes it’s the little things)! We started the sedation process and before we knew it the tooth was out and my daughter doesn’t even remember it happening! Can’t say enough good things about Dr. Proothi and his staff.

Dr. Proothi is the best!! If you are looking to have oral/maxillofacial surgery then look no further!

Dr. Proothi is a genius. I was suffering from several pain from an impacted wisdom tooth and was able to get an emergency appointment on a Saturday with him. I personally suffer from dental anxiety and Dr. Proothi was so brilliant, confident, and kind that it immediately put me at ease. He offered to sedate me for the procedure so that I would not have to feel any more stress or pain and after not even an hour I was heading home. The surgery went to well that I was pain free when the anesthesia wore off. At times after surgery the site can be sore, and due to Dr. Proothis expert hands, I felt no pain at all. With Dr. Proothi as is my oral surgeon, I am confident that any procedure I require will go smoothly, quickly and will be done with precision. I am no longer in fear of Dental surgery and actually look forward to speaking with him above every visit. Dr. Proothi is a genius.

Dr. Proothi is an amazing and caring doctor. He is a highly skilled surgeon with a wonderful bed side manner. His staff is polite and always willing to help. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Proothi and his practice. He helped us through a very difficult time and I would highly recommend him.

I am 42 yrs old & EVERY dentist I have ever been to has been a horrible experiencefor me. I’m very sensitive & nervous when it comes to any dr in my mouth! Especially this time because I needed 5 root tips removed, 2 were embedded under the gums on top of an infection that had to be drained!! From the minute I walked in his office every staff person was friendly & very professional, not to mention the office is so clean, it’s spotless! Dr. Proothi is by far the best dr/surgeon I have ever been to!! His bed side manner is so comforting & his assistant was a sweetheart! Dr. Proothi definitely has a new patient with me & now I know exactly where to take my daughter to get her wisdom teeth out!!

Dr. Proothi is the best oral surgeon! He helped my son with a rare infection in his jaw bone. He also removed both my sons wisdom teeth and last he put in 6 implants for my husband. He is kind and gentle. We have had no issues with the work he is done. We would not go to any other oral surgeon.

I work for an orthodontist and we refer our patients to Dr. Proothi for extractions as well as jaw corrective surgeries. His work is absolutely phenomenal.

He helped me end 3 years of pain, when all the others gave up, he did not. He listened.... rare to find a Dr. nowadays. Best OMFS I have ever had the honor of meeting. tf NY

I can’t thank Dr. Michael Proothi enough. it’s been a little over a week since my TMJ surgery and I’ve got better range of motion already. he’s a terrific oral surgeon and the staff is efficient and friendly. office is beautiful ???? thanks again

Amazing Doctor, wonderful staff. My recovery was fast and amazing due to his skill and care. I drove all the way from the city to see him based on the recommendation of a physician friend of mine. Man am I glad I did. THE place to go for maxi-mandibular advancement surgery.

As a referring provider, I called Dr. Proothi midday on a Saturday bc I had a pt in my chair who’s jaw locked up during X-rays. Dr. Proothi not only got on the phone with me to speak to me directly, but he agreed to see the pt right away . Not only that, but he called me after he saw the pt to keep me updated on the outcome and what was done. I will refer to dr Proothi again as he is extremely accommodating and personable.

I'm going to give the most detail I can, as the decision to have jaw surgery and with whom is not something that I took lightly, and neither should you. Dr. Proothi came recommended from my orthodontist (Three Village Orthodontics' Dr. Everett) to take a look at a fairly large underbite that was also affecting my ability to breathe, as Dr. Proothi discovered. In preparation we extracted two lower teeth to assist in the correction of some crowding on the bottom. I experienced no pain, save for some discomfort that was gone with a couple Motrin. Fast forward to the big day, we had determined that we'd lengthen the bottom jaw and leave the top alone. He also moved a piece of bone up in my chin to make my chin look a little more normal. I arrived in the hospital around lunch time and got to meet the anesthesiologist he works with. I felt better knowing that the anesthesiologist had done procedures like this with Dr. Proothi on many, many occasions. I was nasally intubated so he'd have room to work in my mouth, and fortunately I have no memory of it at all (I was already out!). Jenna from his office was even in the OR! It was practically a family reunion. Dr. Proothi ended up placing two sets of plates in my jaw to hold everything so that my muscles wouldn't pull everything back, it was such a large shift. The surgery was over around dinner time (I think I went in around noon) and I was talking and awake later that evening. I was closed up with some rubber bands which allowed me to speak and breathe easier. I iced my face constantly for the next few days and experienced a little bruising that resolved inside of a week. The most frustrating part of the process was the liquids-only diet that you're required to be on for the first couple of months, however when I did return to chewing I found that I had no pain or soreness at all. I'm also a distance runner and have been able to return to marathon training just two months later. The only remaining evidence is some slight numbness on my chin, which normally can take months and months to resolve. This has to do with the nerve in your chin. I've taken to interpreting the lack of lasting numbness as a testament to how efficient and careful he is as a surgeon, which is why I chose him to perform my surgery. I don't think there's anybody more qualified.

Dr. Proothi is not only a phenonemal doctor, but he is also a phenomenal person. He is an incredibly skilled surgeon, and it was always nothing but a pleasure to deal with him, as well as his staff (thank you to Jenna and Demi).

Dr. Proothi is exactly the confident smart surgeon I expected to have take care of my daughter's wisdom teeth extraction, but what truly won her over was his wonderfully warm personality. He took his time and explained everything clearly even calling me at home to make sure I was comfortable with the treatment plan. I am so happy we have found him, that I myself became a patient of his.

Amazing experience. I was referred to Dr Proothi by a physician friend of mine. I traveled all the way from the City just for his care. And I'm happy I did. My recovery from maximadibular advancement surgery was light years better then that experienced by others treated elsewhere. 5 Stars from me, and I can usually find something to complain about. Both in the office and in the hospital setting he was amazing. You can tell a lot about a Doctor by their staff, who are also amazing
