Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I was amazed, first of all by the care they took screening for COVID-19. Once I got to see the surgeon, he was extremely professional, knowledgeable and efficient. So quick! And, except for the necessary anesthesia shots, it was painless. The whole office was efficient and friendly.

Dr. Ditty pulled my tooth and didn't give me anything for pain afterwards. The office said they don't give narcotics for just one tooth. How inhumane! I've never had a tooth pulled where the doctor doesn't prescribe painkillers for the first 24 hours. I get that there's an opioid crisis in America, but this is a legitimate use of narcotic painkillers. Now I have to suffer needlessly. The arrogance is breathtaking. Patients in pain should not have to beg for pain relief.

Hello my name is Rob Charbonneau and I want to give a great review on Dr Ditty. He is a outstanding oral surgeon who was the best oral surgeon I ever went to. I had 20 teeth extracted and afterwards I had no pain whatsoever. He was very professional and his office staff was great to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for any type of oral surgery. Hope this review helps anyone needing oral surgery.

One of the best medical practitioner of any sort. His ethics and skills match none. His staff and the office environment reflect his person as well.

Implant Patient in Lewes, DE – Jan 23, 2019
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Ditty?
Everyone at the seaford office has been wonderful. I had to have an implant done due to a fracture and severe decay in a tooth that u cud see when I smiled. I was very nervous since I never had to have much done to my teeth other than fillings and wisdom teeth pulled out. Dr Ditty was super kind and extremely knowledgeable in the info he gave me abt my procedure. The day of procedure 10/2018 he explained everything again and went RT to work. No Pain during procedure and beside manners A+ !!!

I have been seeing Dr. Ditty for several years for both dental work and other medical issues as well He is also an M.D. His quality of work and personal attention to his patients are unequaled. I have used 2 other oral surgeons in this area who were very good and I have no complaints about them, however, Dr. Ditty is far above that. He gives you a feeling that because of his experience, training and confidence you are in the best possible hands. As far as I'm concerned, he's the best there is.

I was turned away at the receptionist desk on Friday 9/16/2016, 11:35 a.m. in pain, as an existing patient, after being told by Erica (11:25 a.m.) to "come in, Dr Ditty will see you". The receptionist smugly stated "he has seen the last of his patients and has VACATED THE PREMISES" - this, after Erica, only 10 minutes before, said "the Doctor is in surgery and you will have a long wait between patients." I was told he would not return until Tuesday.
