    Patient Review 3:

    Without question, Dr. Whiteman is the most talented and professional dentist I have ever known. His skills, both dental and interpersonal are of the highest order. His staff mirrors his leadership, they are caring, interested and highly skilled.

    I cannot say enough about the experience as a patient of Dr Whiteman and his entire staff.

    About Hygienist: Dr Whitemans hygienist and assistant are unparalled in skill, comfort and manner. In such a time-sensitive enviroment, I have never felt rushed or slighted in any way. Rather the care and concern for my needs has always been paramount.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: 7 years.

    Patient Review 4:

    During a routine cleaning visit, Dr Whiteman suggested that the eroded pits in my teeth were caused by acid reflux (which was undiagnosed at the time). My primary care doctor was skeptical, but ordered an upper GI test that confirmed Dr. Whiteman's suspicion and led to a successful treatment of my condition. This kind of above-average care, combined with a friendly office atmosphere (really, this place stands out in Boston!), have made me recommend Dr. Whiteman's practice to many of my friends. None have been disappointed.

    Can't say anything about cost (insurance has covered everything thus far) and the facilities, while nothing spectacular, are quite comfortable.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: 2+ years.

    Patient Review 5:

    Dr. Whiteman is very patient, straight-forward and will explain what is going on in simple, but non-patronizing manner.

    Hieu, the pretty woman who works the front desk, is organized and efficient.

    The hygienists are also courteous and polite and do a good job. The procedures seem to be a bit expensive, as some of the normal cavity fillings and mouth guards are very expensive and they don't seem to use procedures that are most covered by your insurance- thus, greater out-of-pocket expense for you. Overall, a good experience, even if it seems a bit expensive.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: 10 months.

    Patient Review 6:

    Outstanding dental practice - nice facility with great equipment (digital xrays to minimize radiation exposure, etc.), excellent customer service, very nice folks who are very skilled at their job. Front desk is flexible re: scheduling mechanism (phone, email), and sends email reminder, as well as the traditional snail mail reminders. Dentist is wonderful, not pushy about procedures/high-bill "extras." Last year, when my parents were visiting, my father broke a bridge - they saw him on an emergency basis and took wonderful care of him. I don't honestly know how the prices compare, but they seem completely reasonable, so I have no complaints (it didn't seem fair to rate them as a 5 when I don't really know the comparison).

    About Hygienist: Hygenist is excellent, has wonderful chair-side manners, and either has a great memory or very detailed records of prior visits (from the toothbrush/toothpaste you use to books that you recommend, etc.).

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: 4 years.

    Patient Review 7:

    From the moment I called the office to make my first appointment at Whiteman Dental, I felt well taken care of. Hieu, the receptionist at the front desk was quick to accomodate my unpredictable schedule (I am a stay at home mother and my schedule revolves around my sitter's availability, which can make scheduling appointments very difficult).I was able to get an appointment quickly and at a time that worked for me.Once I arrived at my appointment, Dr.Whiteman was friendly and professional. I experienced no pain as he filled my two cavities and prepped my tooth for a permanent crown.This is saying a lot because I am curently 5 months pregnant, and I can never seem to get comfortable these days! Furthermore, I had a potenial dilemma on my hands earlier this week when my temporary crown broke and I couldn't find a sitter to watch my daughter.Hieu and Dr. Whiteman were extremely accomodating and invited me bring my two year old to the appointment,.Hieu assured me that she would entertain my daughter while I had my crown replaced.Fortunately, my daughter sat calmly in her stroller while Dr. Whiteman worked on my tooth, but it was nice to know that Hieu was there if I needed her.I highly recommend this dental practice!

    I came all the way from upstate New York to Dr. Whiteman for my crown when my tooth split apart because this is world class dentistry. Why take a risk when you can be completely confident that your teeth will have the best care? I know I made the right decision!

    Patient Review 9:

    From Hieu, the office manager, Heather, the woman who worked on my teeth, to Dr. Whiteman, I couldn't have imagined a better experience. They are professional, friendly and well-trained. Dr. Whiteman treated me with respect and honesty. Heather performed a great cleaning although I had not visited a dentist for a few years. Hieu is the MVP among an all-star team. She juggled appointments to get me in for a check-up and cleaning before their well-deserved holiday vacation. I will return for a crown placement in the new year and have the utmost confidence in Dr. Whiteman's skill and expertise.

    I have only one minor complaint - they had a new technician performing the x-rays. The more experienced one (I don't remember her name) was outstanding. I am sure that under the guidance of the staff the new technician will be as competant as her mentor.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: one month.

    Patient Review 12:

    Dr. Whiteman provides excellent dental services: his staff is friendly, engaging, helpful and good at what they do. He is a very, very good dentist: concerned about patient's comfort throughout procedures, very good with a needle and drill, and so far -cavities filled, crown, and a tooth extraction- all have turned out well.

    The office is small, modern, very efficient and completely computerized. The front desk takes care of insurance, billing, fabulous customer service, etc.

    I have been going to dentists for 50+ years (have many crowns and bridges) in many different cities and put Whiteman Dental Clinic and Dr. Whiteman in the top tier I have seen.

    Highly recommended.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: 3 MONTHS.

    Dr. Whiteman and his staff are welcoming from the moment you step in the door. They are patient and kind and want to help you get the best dental care at a reasonable price. I am moving from the area soon and wish that I could move this dental office and staff with me. In my years of seeing dentists (over 30 years), he and his staff are the best.

    Patient Review 15:

    I've been to see Dr. Whiteman twice in the last year. I've only had basic x-rays and cleaning thus far, though I will be having a cavity filled in the near future. What makes this dental practice exceptional is the extremely personable nature of both Dr. Whiteman and his staff, and the peristent follow-up! I keep a very busy work schedule, and have had to cancel an appointment in the past- Dr. Whiteman's office has followed up by email, phone, and postcard to re-schedule me and remind me when I'm due for an appointment, and even when last minute openings become available. Were it not for their persistence, I'm sure I would have not kept up with my dental care this past year. If you are someone who seeks a friendly and accommodating dental office, this is the place for you! Dr. Whiteman and Hieu (at the front desk) are great.

    Patient Review 16:

    Two months back, one of my front teeth broke from the root by accident. I need a root canal and a crown (core and post in the middle of the whole process, which I don't know by prior). I finally decide to visit Dr. Whiteman's office because he is the highest scored dentist in this website. Although this review score partially due to the good patient relationship they maintain (I got an email from Hieu about the review), but I have no doubt that I am very happy with their service and would like to give a positive review.

    BTW, I did not mark treatment success to be the highest since only time can tell if my root canal and crown was successfully treated. Cosmetic result is not hollywood smile because of my other teeth are not perfect. :>)

    Cost wise, they are not in metlife or delta dental PPO network, so it will cost more in general.

    Dr. Whiteman seems very good at multiple major dental process, includes root canal, which purprised me. So I did not go to other specialist. He is the best I have ever seen to make patient painless. He ever said that he treats patient as the way he will treat his mom and friend. I were very touched.

    Hieu is the best lady you can expect in the front desk at a dental office.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: months.

    Patient Review 17:

    It is such a relief to find a good dentist. The quality of service from all the staff is very high, from administration to patient care. The facilities are top notch, and very high tech. I especially like the attention to detail in regards to the comfort level of the patient. I have never felt so little discomfort during dental procedures. Also, Dr. Whiteman himself is very good at explaining procedures and alleviating patient anxiety. As a final plus they do a good job helping with managing the insurance company.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: 10 months.

    Patient Review 19:

    Dr.Whiteman has grasped up-to-date dental technology and he applied it very skillyfully to my front teeth root canal and bonding. I had dentists before and I knew they couldn't be a match to Dr. Whiteman in terms of the skills and technology. I knew the big contrast on my teeth before and after Dr. Whiteman's work. I love my front teeth very much and now I wear a big smile baring my front teeth. Dr. Whiteman is very friendly with his sweet smile and very patient and professional with his work. That is also why I went all the way to Brookline from Rhode Island for him because it is worth the trip.

    Also, I like the diverse staff in Dr. Whiteman's clinic. I think the front desk has done an amazing job, always timely reminding me of my appointment , explaining every procedure clearly and patiently, being very considerate and compassionate.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: a year.

    Patient Review 20:

    The only person I like in this office is Dr. Whiteman. He is nice and patient, very precise. But the office manager is pushy, the front desk is not friendly to me. My teeth cleaning there was a painful memory. And one of dental assistant is not experienced, I feel very unconfortable when she was assisting Dr. Whiteman. I felt like I was offering her training/practice opportunity. They basically keep every appointment on time and replies emails promptly. So waiting time is short. But the bad part of it is: if some day the Doctor's schedule runs late, you might have to schedule another appointment if you have additional questions. They are not always patient and everything seems strickly runs by the schedule. So if you have more questions than you expected, you'd better be prepared.

    Because of the unplesant experience with the staffs overthere, although I still think Dr. Whiteman is a very good dentist, I am thinking about quitting this office. Because you know, good experience is a overall thing, is not only with the dentist. If someone from a dental office makes you feel unconfortable all the time, why do you want to return to that office?

    Above are all from my actual experience and very honest feedback that I can make.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: 6 months.

    Patient Review 21:

    Every patient is different. I have very, very sensitive teeth, and my childhood dentist was a horrible. "We're almost through..." he'd say, as he drilled away, laughing, lightning flashing.

    Dr. Whiteman is fantastic. His procedures and check-ups are very gentle. He knew I had sensitive teeth, and adjusted his anaesthetic accordingly. The assistants are on par with Dr. Whiteman; very gentle, very accomodating. Overall a surprisingly great experience. More like getting your hair cut than going to a dentist.

    I have thought about finding a job outside of Boston. And, I know this sounds odd, but I'm second guessing myself just because I know I'll have to find another dentist, and I know that I won't find one as professional as Dr. Whiteman.

    Five stars. Highly recommended.

    Dr. Whiteman is excellent. I went to him because of positive reviewes on Dr. Oogle, and am glad I did. He was the first dentist to note that I was grinding my teeth (I'm religious about going to the dentist), and once I had my nightguard it was very evident that he was right. I did so much damage to this nightguard in 2 yrs that he is now making me a new one, free of charge. His manner is pleasant, and he always goes through the xrays with me so I know what he's looking for and why. He always checks in and looks in my mouth even if I'm there just for a cleaning, and I feel very comfortable in his office. His staff is great, and can contact me by cell and email without any problem.

    Treatment Length with Dr. Whiteman: 3 years.
