Dr. Philip J Cabrera

This review is long overdue. About 6-7 months ago, I had an emergency where I needed a root canal done on a day where the office was closing early due to holiday. I was stuck an hour's drive away, and it would have been completely acceptable for them to say they could not do it, and to schedule me for the week after. They not only waited for me, but Dr Cabrera took the time to be patient with me, and did his usual, spectacular work. The man is a wizard. He works like the conductor of an orchestra, and it's incredible to watch. As soon as he was done, I was immediately relieved of the extreme pain I was in. I could not thank him enough. The story does not end there. I ended up getting Covid a few days later, and to think of having to go through it with a tooth in need of a root canal, would've been a nightmare, as there was no way I'd be able to get the procedure done until my symptoms were gone. Again, I cannot thank them enough. Go here, get it done perfectly by a person who clearly takes pride in what he does. This review is long overdue.

Rudest receptionist I have spoken to in awhile. If the front desk so unprofessional it makes you wonder about the clinicians in the back. Referred to them from Worcester Quality Dental but I will book elsewhere.

eferred here by my dentist as their regular endodontist was out of office. Absolutely horrific care from start to finish. Philip Cabrera was condescending, denigrating and had zero care or concern for my overall well-being. Despite a heart rate in the 190's during the procedure, he treated me callously with a "suck it up" attitude. He repeatedly cold-tested my teeth well in excess of any diagnostic clinical indication. My hands were shaking to the point I was barely able to sign my consents, something clearly visible. When asked about pain management and anti-biotics post-procedure he said "pregnant women get root canals all the time and they don't get anything." Here I am two days later with a now abscessed tooth and facial cellulitis that requires serious antibiotics. They charged my credit card fraudulently on top of that despite texts and voicemails indicating the payment arrangement we agreed to. Steer clear of this facility, especially if you have any anxiety about getting dental

If you, like me, suffered here, please know that you are able to file a complaint with the State Board even years after your appointment.

My first pain free root canal. Dr Cabrera explains everything in detail, has high tech equipment, and a very calming demeanor. Highly recommend!

Had my first root canal today and was extremely pleased with how quick I was able to get in for an appointment and how helpful the staff was. Dr. Cabrera was very kind and knowledgeable.

I must say, Dr. Cabrera is fantastic! I'm someone who has bad anxiety especially when it comes to the dentist. I have only had one other root canal done before and it was done by a different dentist at a different dental company and that was not a good experience and left me more terrified. Well thankfully after seeing Dr. Cabrera and his amazing assistant for my most recent root canal I'm not afraid to have to get root canals in the future! He is very knowledgeable and precise with what he does, he is patient with making sure I'm fully numb before starting and making sure I'm comfortable throughout the whole process, and he was awesome at explaining every little thing to me and even how my tooth had an extra canal. He thoroughly went over my xrays with me, which was cool. His assistant (I can't remember her name I'm so sorry) was so good at explaining the process to me while I was getting numb and she and I just enjoyed chatting as we waited for the numbing to set in. They worked great as a team. She was quick to hand Dr. Cabrera the tools he needed right as he requested them and most of the time she was already holding the tool he would need before he asked for it. Hopefully I don't need anymore root canals, but lets be real here haha I wont be afraid to get a root canal in the future now that I'll be seeing them again :) very comfortable experience. Sorry for the novel lol. Also, I thought it was kind of the front staff to call me to check up on me and see how my procedure went and said if I had any questions or pain to give them a call back (it was a voicemail because I was at work). Since I had met the front staff a couple times already, when I went in the most recent time one of the ladies said "Hi Jamie!" so that was very nice that she remembered me :) they had also called because there was a cancellation and wanted to see if I wanted to come in for my root canal sooner, but I wasn't able to.

I was beyond nervous for our consultation- it had been almost 10 years without seeing a dentist (due to dental anxiety) and I was told u needed a root canal. Luckily, they have online registration so I didn't have to fill out forms with shaky hands. The Doctor ended up having a cancellation and wanted to take me then as he was booked for the next few weeks- that's when the nerves kicked in. My heart was racing and my palms were sweating like crazy. We started the procedure and I quickly realized that all that I was nervous about was for nothing! The entire procedure was easy, quick, and absolutely painless. The Dr. Cabrera and his staff explained every small detail to me, let me know why it was necessary, and let me have the freedom of telling them (if I was in pain) to stop. The receptionist and front end staff were also very pleasant. Honestly, it felt less painful than a filling. **UPDATE** After a week or so of back and forth with my dentist (Dr. Lowell Gross) and Dr.Cabrera due to extreme and worsening tooth pain next to the tooth mentioned above (back in 2018), I finally had them perform new xrays and tests to determine where the source of pain/infection was coming from as well as what they would recommend to resolve this. I had scheduled my procedure for the end of the week after seeing them on Monday, but after waking up Tuesday at 2 am in agony and having a worsening fever, I called the office in hopes of a sooner appointment. The office staff found an opening with Dr. Clark within 3 hours of my call and treated me as if I were their own daughter when I came in. The entire procedure was quick and easy, and I was very thankful for going in as there was indeed a bad infection in the root on the tooth behind the original RC. I honestly cannot say enough good things about everyone at this practice. They truly care about their patients, help you to understand what options are possible while giving you their expert opinion, and always are sympathetic of your discomfort in a very genuine way.

I saw Dr. Clark, and she was nothing short of amazing. I work in the dental field and refer a lot of patients to that office, and it is awesome when you know that the others are in good hands. The office was easy to get to (both locations), office staff is super friendly and Dr. Clark and her assistant were just awesome!
