Van Cortlandt Dental Care

"I am giving this place 2 stars for the receptionist. He has always been pleasant with me. DR. Gabrial and I had decent communication. (Oh so I thought) I will not write a long book. I will just say this... If you cancel and rebook your appointment the day you were suppose to come in. When she sees you again and you just happen to need Numbing done. She will take a q tip to numb your gums and will not wait for it to actually numb you. She will then stick you with the needle and cross her arms, when you are moaning in pain. She will look at you and ask if you want to do this. Moral of the story. She is a monster when she is upset. I think it had something to do with the fact I am a black person too. I know she wouldn’t dare treat her white clients in this manner. I was going to file a complaint against her with the insurance company but I decided to not do it. When I left her office, I kindly walked away with no argument. However, I was told to write this review just for others to be aware. Good luck going here especially if you are black. Oh and her crown work is terrible. If you need a crown done, don’t even bother. She messed mine up twice. UPDATE: I found a dental place that did my crown so amazing and the customer service is excellent! :)"

"I recommend Dr. Diana Gabriel in the highest possible terms. Dr. Gabriel listens to your concerns, is very gentle with treatment and up-to-date in the latest dental options. The supporting staff always makes sure you are comfortable. Her receptionist, Annette, has a friendly manner and is always helpful and accommodating."

"Llove Dr. Gabriel. She did my cleaning, filling and crown for my implant. I always feel pain with cleanings but not with Dr. Gabriel. I recommend her highly"

"Great place and Dr. Gabriel is so professional and kind. She explains things thoroughly, is patient with my fears, and never pressures me to do unnecessary stuff. She’s a real find in Yonkers and a wonderful dentist! Highly recommend."

"I am writing the review below on behalf of my mother Maryann who is 80 years old and a new Patient of Dr. Gabriel. She has no access to a computer and wanted to express her feelings about her experience with Dr. Gabriel. Here is what she wrote: "I was afraid to go to a Dentist for many, many years. I developed several Dental problems because of this fear and neglect. Recently my problems became unbearable. I knew I needed to go to a Dentist. In order to get me back into the Chair I had to find a Dentist that would make me feel comfortable and not afraid, someone that would understand my problems and pain. Dr. Gabriel made me feel extremely comfortable and not afraid. I am so grateful that I found Dr. Gabriel. Her Chair side manner is amazing, she has a soft touch, She is very, very knowledgeable in her field and is up to date with all the new Dental techniques. Dr. Gabriel seems ahead of the game and very much on top of her Field. She came up with several solutions for my case. Dr. Gabriel is not only knowledgeable in the Dental Industry; she is also knowledgeable in the Psychological Industry. She knows how to sooth and understand her Patients conditions throughout the entire Dental experience. I think the world of her and she did wonders for me. I would recommend her to anyone. If I were to rate her from one to five, I would rate her a ten!!!!" From Maryann V."
