STAY AWAY!! If I could give this practice 0 Stars I would!! I only went back to them for a tooth extraction because my previous experience several years ago was positive. Wow, their way of doing business absolutely couldn't be any WORSE! On the very morning that I was scheduled to have a tooth extracted rby Dr Faerber their office called and cancelled me without reason and with 1 hour notice!! NOTE: If I could delete my positive review from 2 years ago, I definitely would!!

STAY AWAY!! – Jan 17, 2022
Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Faerber?
Dr Faerber is exceptionally skilled and used the utmost care when performing my tooth extraction. Since my tooth was deeply embedded, it required the skills of an exceptional surgeon and Dr Faerber is that! It was necessary for him to use general anesthesia in my case. I was cared for by his staff afterwards and I was treated with kindness and concern for my well being. I am healing very quickly and with little discomfort. I am very pleased with Dr. Faerber and am happy to highly recommend him!

Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Faerber?
Wow - it’s obvious Dr. Faerber has assembled an amazing team of positive, caring professionals here and I could not have been more impressed with the care I received. I had a molar pulled and a bone graft. Everything was top-notch, from my consultation to scheduling to setting expectations around cost, to the anesthesiologist, the surgery itself and follow-up. And the recovery has been super-smooth with no problems and no pain. I had really been dreading getting the tooth pulled, but after my experience at Faerber Surgical Arts, I’d give it a 5-star rating –“WOULD HAVE MY TOOTH PULLED AGAIN!!!”

My experience as a patient of Dr. Faerber's was great. I was refereed to Dr. Faerber for a dental implant. Dr. Faerber did an amazing job and the entire experience of getting this dreaded implant on a front tooth was way more pleasant, timely, and cost effective than I had expected. Especially due to the unpleasant stories I had heard from others that have been through this procedure elsewhere. I highly recommend Dr. Faerber for any implant procedure! Dr. Faerber and his staff are very welcoming and made me feel like part of the family.

Oral surgery can be scary but Dr. Faerber always took his time to make sure both my family and I were comfortable with any procedure, no matter how small. I have been to see him many times, and each experience is very smooth and easy.

Dr Faerber and his staff were wonderful. I've in the past have seen 3 different oral surgeon who stated they were not able to remove my implant, however, Dr. Faerber perform the surgery without any hesitation. My surgery was successful and new implant succeed.
I couldn't thank Dr Faerber and staff enough for the wonderful job.
