Hooray for Dr. Wei!

Hooray for Dr. Wei!
Dr. Wei has been my dentist for 8 years. I see my life as a dental patient clearly divided into “before Dr. Wei” and “with Dr. Wei.” I always hated going to dentists, maybe because I never had the great treatment I currently get from him. The qualities I value the most in a dentist/dental practice are knowledge, a delicate, but assuring touch, a calm demeanor, a welcoming and clean environment, and the latest instruments that make the least amount of scary noises and causes the least pain. I recommended him to all my friends and co-workers who now go to him as well. He is the dentist I would consider a family friend. His work is precise and he is really great at what he does.
And best of all, I now have a great smile 🙂
Hooray for Dr. Wei!

Every since I see Dr Wei, my fear for dentists completely disappeared. I HIGHLY recommend Dr Wei to all my friends in the New York area.
I have been seeing Dr Wei for about 10 years now and I cannot be happier. Just like a lot of other people, going to see a dentist is sometimes a ‘fearful’ act…Dr Wei, hands down, is the best Dentist I ever had. Dr Wei’s staff is extremely friendly and very helpful and Dr Wei himself actually makes going to the dentist a fun thing. He is very much in tune with his patients and applies pain management if it becomes necessary. A couple of years back, Dr Wei gave me two crowns – I have never gotten more compliments about my teeth…I HIGHLY recommend Dr Wei to all my friends in the New York area…the location cannot be more convenient – if using public transportation or driving – several garages are close by. Also, the office is extremely modern, and actually very pleasant to be in – every since I see Dr Wei, my fear for dentists completely disappeared.

Dr Wei’s office is modern, pristine and welcoming, and I am very happy to recommend him.
When I moved to NY 3 years ago it was very important to me that I find an excellent Dentist. Dr Michael Wei was highly recommended by a friend, and from my initial visit with him, I was very impressed. I’d always wanted to improve my less-than-perfect teeth, and after much discussion and consideration with Dr Wei, I decided on Invisalign. It is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made – I absolutely love my straight teeth! Dr Wei was highly professional, friendly and reassuring, and he worked tirelessly to perfect my smile. I had very regular visits with him, and it was a pleasure to see both him and his wonderful staff every time. Some of my teeth were quite stubborn, in fact Invisalign said it was a particularly challenging case, but Dr Wei found a way to make it work. The process took longer than I expected, but I am so glad I did it, it is one of the most valuable things I have ever spent money on. Dr Wei’s office is modern, pristine and welcoming, and I am very happy to recommend him.

Dr. Wei is a great dentist that you can trust.
Dr. Wei is a great dentist that you can trust. I have been a patient of Dr. Wei’s for about six years and I can only say good things. His “chair-side” manner is exactly what you would want from a good dentist: He explains what he is going to do; he goes at your pace; and he pro-actively gives you the information you need to maintain the best teeth-health possible. His office is friendly and accommodating, and every time I come – which is about three times a year for a cleaning – he always has the newest cutting-edge technology. It’s the integrity and respect that he has for his patients which makes me very happy to go back.

Dr. Wei is the best and the most caring dentist I’ve ever met.
Amazing Dentist. I highly recommend Dr. Wei. I have been a patient of Dr. Wei’s for 8 years now. He is always very professional, caring, and tentative to my needs. He takes the time to explain the treatment and what my financial obligations are before proceeding so there are no surprises. He offers several flexible payment options which is important because I have limited means. He always works it out with me to ensure that I can afford the dental care that I need. He restored my mouth and gave me the beautiful smile that I’ve always wanted. He is the best and the most caring dentist I’ve ever met. I recommend him to all my family, friends, and co-workers.

Dr. Michael J. Wei has the finest skills in the art of dentistry. He has been taking care of my teeth in the past few years. I went to other dentists before and I found that Dr. Wei performs the best dental care. He is super patient, caring and attentive. No matter if it is regular filling, cleaning or even anesthesia injection, I could barely feel pain or much discomfort during the process. He is excellent in cosmetic dentistry. I had a chip in my front tooth and Dr. Wei repaired it beautifully. It looks exactly the same as before. Dr. Wei really cares for his patients and always strives for the best. He is a perfectionist. He is willing to answer questions and share his professional knowledge. His staffs are friendly and helpful. I am glad that I’ve found Dr. Wei and he is simply one of the very best dentists you can find in the city.

I now have that Hollywood smile I have always dreamed of.
Dr. Wei,
As an actor, my outward appearance is very important to my business. I needed a great deal of treatment as I had not seen a dentist in many, many years. I had a broken tooth, many large cavities and the need for a root canal. Dr. Michael Wei had a wonderful demeanor, quick wit, and a great “dentist-chair-side-manner.” He walked me through the entire process, explaining everything in great detail so that I understood exactly how and why I was being treated. He also arranged it so that I had closely scheduled appointments so we could restore the health of my teeth as quickly as possible. The result? I now have that Hollywood smile I have always dreamed of.

I appreciate your honest opinion and the confidence you gave me that I’d love my new smile.
I’ve seen many dentists in the past and not one of them recommended what Dr. Wei did. Dr. Wei, your work is absolutely the best I ever had. I appreciate your honest opinion and the confidence you gave me that I’d love my new smile. My new smile is the best and I thank you for that. I am very happy to recommend Dr. Wei to anyone.

He actually cares about the patient, me!
I’ve gone to more than 15 different dentist in my life thus far. I’ve had okay or horrible experiences with all of them and usually got the pain fixed and never returned to a dentist more than once.
My friend Tina recommended me to Dr. Wei. My first visit with Dr. Michael Wei was so thorough, comfortable, and pleasant that I actually went to him a second time and slowly but surley 2+ years later he is my only dentist.
He actually cares about the patient, me! He tells you what the problem is, tells you what he recommends and different options. You have a say in what gets done in your mouth. He has high tech, clean and sanitary equipment. His office does not smell like a dental office. Always has a DVD playing so you can choose to watch tv if you wanted. He’s always taken his time and has never made me feel rushed. He and his staff schedule appointments accurately so that you are never waiting for your appointment, so you can go during a lunch break. I appreciate a person who can appreciate my time as well. He has the best staff who are kind, gentle, patient and not rude which is hard to find in NYC.
The best thing on top of all the above is he is a master at what he does: I had a tooth pulled out and took 2 Advil’s and never had swelling. People were amazed that I even had a dental procedure done.
I recommended him to all my friends and co-workers who now go to him as well. He is the dentist I would consider a family friend. His work is precise and he is really great at what he does.
Thank you Dr. Wei for my wonderful teeth!

To date, I am cavity free, my gums are well improved, I’ve completed Invisalign to straighten my teeth.
Dr.Wei,
I was first referred to Dr. Wei through my friend Cheryl, who is actually Dr. Wei’s wife’s (Angela) friend. At the time, Dr. Wei had just opened his first office at Gramercy Park and I had not been to a dentist since I was in junior high school. I had just started my first full time job with dental benefits and was searching for a good dentist. Although Dr. Wei was a referral from a friend, I was still skeptical because of all the bad experiences I had had as a child. But to my surprise, Dr. Wei turned out to be THE BEST dentist; I will never have to look for another dentist again. He’s very personable, caring, and is an expert in dentistry. When I first became his patient, I had 15 cavities, bad gums, and just overall horrible dental health. Dr. Wei was very polite and professional and offered me choices and a plan on how to go about fixing my teeth. I have lock jaw so it is hard for me to open my mouth wide for a long time, but my weekly appointments to fix all my cavities were never uncomfortable. To date, I am cavity free, my gums are well improved, I’ve completed Invisalign to straighten my teeth, and have whitened my teeth. Dr. Wei has made my smile beautiful — just in time for my wedding! I’ve been his patient for 6 years and have referred everyone I know to him. My friends always call me to say how surprised they were that Dr. Wei turned out to be such a great dentist. When I meet my friends’ friends we end up in conversations that go “You go to Dr. Wei too? Isn’t he great!” Dr. Wei’s become THE Dentist. I always tell people don’t take my word for it, just try him out and you’ll see.

What makes Dr. Wei a great dentist, in addition to his precise craftsmanship and desire for perfection.
There isn’t much more to say about the “Dr. Wei experience” that hasn’t been said already. Dr. Wei and staff exceed all the standard requirements of what you want in a dental office and then some. Of course you get a friendly and courteous staff, accurate scheduling, (I never wait), clean office, state of the art technology (the needle vibrates to mitigate pain, watch a movie during dental procedures) and very reasonable pricing for the high quality of work.
But what makes Dr. Wei a great dentist, in addition to his precise craftsmanship and desire for perfection, is he is a great person. His demeanor and warm personality which can only come naturally, literally takes a way the entire anxiety of a dentist visit. You don’t feel like you are visiting a dentist, you are visiting a friend that does dental work.
Additionally, despite his often full schedule, his attentiveness always makes me feel like I am his first and only patient on every visit. Examples:
Knowing I needed extensive work and that I travel 30+ miles from work for each visit (worth the trip), he immediately calendared me in for multiple future visits and precisely calculated the procedures he’d perform each visit so to minimize my visits. Of course, each visit went according to plan.
He knew I had a wedding to attend thus needed my cracked veneer replaced (cracked veneer was from a FORMER dentist), concerned that the veneer would not be shipped to his office in time, Dr. Wei went out of his way on his day off to pick up the veneer from the lab so that I would have it in time for the wedding! I am quite confident that none of my previous dentists would have even considered doing that.
Lastly, the customer service provided by the staff is First Class. As of the very first visit, they said that I would receive reimbursement from my dental insuarance within 2 weeks and though I forgot about them (I am skeptic with insurance companies), it was a pleasant surprise the checks arrived! The team is also very diligent with following up the very next day on any procedures performed to ensure I am comfortable. They never miss a beat.
As such, my search for a dedicated, punctual, reliable, flexible, honest, knowledgeable, caring, pride in their work, quality, dentist has ended at Dr. Wei and team. Like others, I highly recommend Dr. Wei. If you are skeptical, just chat with him for yourself.

He is passionate about dentistry and genuinely cares about his patients.
I am a nurse and I chose this profession because of my passion to provide optimum patient care. So needless to say, when the table is turned and I became the patient, I am the worst critic because I expect nothing but excellent care from my clinician. Dr. Wei has shown me that and much more.
First, I have suffered from periodontal disease for the last 15 years and have made numerous visits to the dentists for a rather uncomfortable procedure called deep scaling and root planing (also known as deep cleaning). This process takes about 45 minutes and requires getting numbed up, something I absolutely dislike. I pride myself in having a high pain threshold but the injectable anesthetic is just unbearable at times, even with the topical anesthetic. Dr. Wei is by far the only dentist who has made this process comfortable for me. I don’t know how but he gives the most gentle injections. It is over before I even know it!
Second, not only am I a nurse, but I am an oncology nurse who works with head and neck cancer patients so I see a lot of patients with mouth cancer. According to CDC, more than 30,000 new cases of mouth and pharynx cancer are diagnosed each year in the US. The ADA is trying to boost public awareness of oral cancer and screening is now a routine part of a dental examination. Dr. Wei is the only dentist who ever performed a comprehensive oral examination on my first visit and every visit after. Unfortunately, I can’t say that about my previous dentists.
And last, being in the healthcare field, I am always surrounded by healthcare professionals so I know a great provider when I see one. And Dr. Wei is indeed the best! He is passionate about dentistry and genuinely cares about his patients. Dr. Wei is an honest and true professional – at no time was I ever pushed into having any unnecessary procedures. He explains to me all my options in a clear, concise manner and then allows me to make my own decisions. It is simply refreshing to find a dental clinic with such high standards of work but also offers a very personal and caring environment. I have complete confidence in everything Dr. Wei does and have always been satisfied with my experience.
