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.

Looking elsewhere
At my initial appointment, I did not find Dr. Pituch to be helpful or compassionate. He talked AT me about what needed to be done, and what I needed to do. During a follow-up call, he dismissed all of my questions and concerns. I will not return.

Dr. Pituch is a highly competent and skilled oral surgeon. He removed all 4 of my wisdom teeth in under 30 minutes. The following days I had almost no swelling and was able to chew fine with minimal pain. I'd highly recommend!

Dr. Pituch worked on a previous extraction site & did a bone graft. He said the bleeding would stop in about an hour and I ended up in the ER where they said I had lost over one and a half pints of blood since he failed to suture one of the sites. After 6 hours, they had to send me by ambulance to Pittsburgh. Neither ER was able to reach or receive a call back from him. For post-surgical pain, he gives Anaprox (glorified"Aleve") which has blood thinning qualities. ERs said that was bad too.

He did multiple procedures to replace 6 molars and 2 bicuspids with dental implants. He recommended a local dentist to me for the crowns and other minor work. From start to finish his staff was great and answered all my questions and concerns. As far as I know he's the #1 oral surgeon in Pittsburgh.

Went in to have my wisdom teeth removed. The waiting time in the waiting room alone is enough for me to hope I never have to come back here. The surgery went fine and there were no complications, which is the only reason I'm giving 3 stars. The Dr., himself is fine and perfectly nice. The office sucks at scheduling. There's no reason it should take more than 2 months to get a 10 minute consult.

He was very rude. I went in to inquire about surgery from broken bones in my face and he was more worried about making my teeth look more Hollywood. I have a deformity in the top of my jaw and he refused to give me options. His answer to my problems were dentures and I didn't even go there for my teeth. I will never recommend him to anyone. He's a terrible doctor. He was my last resort and now I'm stuck with a deformity for the rest of my life at the age of 20. He should not be in this busines
