LECOM School of Dental Medicine

"Allen in The Smile Design Clinic has been very knowledgeable and very kind. He has done a great job with my dental work.He is going to be a fantastic dentist."

"This was my first and only encounter with this establishment. Throughout the entire experience, I maintained a respectful and polite demeanor. However, during my visit, Dr. David Moffa physically threatened me when I expressed my desire to leave. Initially, I was present for the initial part of the examination. When Dr. Moffa entered the room, I felt uncomfortable and decided to wait until he left before informing the student attending to me that I would be leaving. I must commend the student for her professionalism and understanding of medical practice, including patient rights under HIPAA laws. On the contrary, Dr. David Moffa exhibited verbally abusive behavior by insisting I remain seated and forbidding me from leaving. I firmly asserted my right to leave whenever I wanted, emphasizing that the examination was complementary, and I had no issue with paying for services. What troubled me was Dr. David Moffa's attempt to restrict my freedom to leave and his actions of cornering me in his office, in close proximity to other students and doctors. I had not uttered any offensive remarks, but I requested that he step back and allow me to depart. It is important to note that I was trapped in the office, and legally, I could have taken measures to protect myself as he approached me in a threatening manner. His student witnessed the entire incident. It is disheartening that Dr. Moffa, as one of the senior doctors, behaves in such a manner. His teachings could potentially lead a student to jeopardize their future license. I have never encountered treatment like this before, whether in military or civilian medical and dental settings. I am grateful that I did not receive any treatment from him and am currently in the process of filing a formal complaint with corporate .It is crucial to prevent doctors like Dr. David Moffa from imparting such behavior through their teachings."

"LECOM is the best. I've had all my upper teeth removed and temporary dentures made through them plus several lower teeth extracted and they were wonderful. We used laughing gas the last extraction and it went really smoothly. I appreciate these students and staff! They are the best!"

"I started to go to Lecom a few years ago and now both my wife and I have gotten our teeth deep cleaned and a few filings done. I am very happy at how they operate. They are a school so have some patience and be prepared for a longer experience than a regular dentist. The students have to stop periodically and have their work checked so it takes more time. Ask the students and dentist questions be proactive and you will enjoy your dental experience better"

"LECOM is a place where students practicing and training for their craft are also helping the general population save A LOT of money! Thanks for being here, LECOM. Staff and students were professional and fun! It may take a little longer than a regular dental office, but that’s due to the fact that students are closely monitored, and every step is under the watchful eye of a highly qualified dental instructor, who is a practicing/retired dentist as well. It’s also interesting because as the instructor is explaining steps and procedures to the student, you, the patient, are getting a good understanding of what’s happening. We’ve used LECOM twice over two years for some very specific dental needs, and they’ve never failed. Highly recommend!"
