East Shore Dental Care

My son and I have been a patient of Dr. Ormsby for 2 years. I have never experienced kindness, professionalism, knowledge and understanding as I have received from the people at this office! No matter if it was as simple as needing to change an appointment at short notice or matters of finance, they have exceeded my expectations! As for the services and cost - the services my son and I have received (from cleanings to significant repairs) have been done perfectly without anxiety and stress! My son will be receiving his braces in a few weeks. He is excited. Yes, excited to go see HIS dentist and "his friends" (the ladies that take care of his every wish)! As for the cost of his braces - 30 years ago, when I had my braces (most traumatic period of my childhood, by the way) my parents paid exactly $1000 less for worse care and shoddy work... I would gladly say that the prices are more than reasonable and fair; not to mention worth every penny! I will never trust my family's dental care to anyone else! East Shore Dental Care has a lifetime patient!

Superb. I recommend East Shore Dental to my Ithaca area friends. Dr. Ormsby and her staff go the extra mile to make patients comfortable. I went to Dr. Ormsby for braces (as an adult) and routine care. When I expressed interest in her new puppy, Dr. Ormsby arranged for me to meet and play with her adorable puppy as a surprise at my next appointment. Once, on a day the office was closed, she came to work just to fit in an orthodontics appointment with me since I would be out of town the next few weeks. The caregivers are knowledgable and explain everything to me so I felt in control of the braces process. Also, the office feels a bit like a spa - it has gorgeous views of Cayuga lake and is decorated like a home (with nice touches like a handmade quilt on the wall and dried flower wreaths). After I moved to a new state, I continued to periodically return to the Ithaca area to continue my treatment with Dr. Ormsby. Best dentist I have ever had.

Completely overcharged and over treated my wife's dental work. Most recently she told my wife she needed over 10,000 in dental work or else she'd lose her teeth. Went and got a second option this time and the other Doctor said that only 1 crown was neccessary (not 5) and that the price for the crown was way over priced. I am so angry we trusted her last time. I have lost all trust in her. Word of warning, get a second opinion!!

Friendly staff, nice office, comfortable atmosphere. My only complaint, although it's an important one, was the price. I got the exact same procedure done at another dentist for a fraction of the price. I'm not exaggerating, it was three and a half times more expensive at this dentist, and that's a lot when we're talking hundreds. But, they did squeeze me in the same day, which was really nice. Expect great service at an enormous price and you won't be disappointed.
