Had a great experience with a very caring doctor and staff. Husband and wife team that make you feel like part of the family. No problems with my extraction and I got to pick the music during the procedure. It’s annoying to have dental surgery but the team at Havemeyer make it as smooth as possible. I would recommend!

Had all 4 wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Stern and I can honestly say it was one of the most pleasant medical-related experiences. I know that sounds insane—but Dr. Stern is thorough, professional and knowledgeable. He made me feel at ease by explaining the entire process and giving me options, allowing me to choose what was best for me. Ultimately I went with extracting all 4 at once with laughing gas and I have no regrets! I barely felt a tug and my recovery has been seamless. I would recommend Dr. Stern and his team for any oral surgery needs in a heartbeat! Special thanks to Camila and the rest of the staff for their professionalism and kindness!

Hey real person here. Nobody asked me to leave a review or anything, just had a really amazing experience and wanted to talk about it. I came in for a very last second wisdom tooth removal and the team was so incredibly helpful. Camila at the front was lovely - she walked me through everything, as this was one of my first experiences with seeking dental help on my own. One thing that stood out to me was how good this practice’s communication was. To each other and to patients. And lemme tell you about Dr. Stern. Dude is funny. But more than that he’s an absolute professional. Every step of the process was crystal clear because he had explained it all to me before we even began. Overall, this experience was seamless, painless, and stress free. They had me in and out, and left me with great tools for managing the aftercare. I’m already done bleeding. Definitely recommend these professionals.

Dr. Stern and Perri are the best! I had a slightly complex wisdom tooth extraction (one tooth that hooked a nerve and another that was seriously impacted). Few doctors would take the precautions and care that Dr. Stern did. Not only that, my recovery was nothing short of incredible! I wasn’t groggy after surgery, I never struggled with pain, and I barely missed a day of work. The best part? Perri scheduled my surgery within a day of my pain flaring up. Couldn’t recommend this office more for your dental surgery needs!
