(Post Lockdown Appointment) Overall, I was very impressed with the patient experience and safety precautions taken and they’ve set the gold standard. Before my visit, I was told to wear a mask and gloves and told to wait outside Show moreand message the doctor prior to my arrival to reduce my interaction with other patients. When I arrived, I was asked if I had a fever, dry cough, or had any contact with anyone that had COVID-19 or if I had COVID-19 myself. Then the doctor told me all of the precautions they were taking to keep patients safe. All of the rooms are sanitized after every patient. I was allowed to inspect the cleaning solution used and it was an approved product that met the EPA’s criteria for use against COVID-19. I then quizzed the doctor on the lifetime of COVID-19 and she answered all of the questions correctly. 1. 3 hours in the air 2. 4 hours on copper 3. 24 hours on cardboard 4. 2-3 days on plastics and stainless steel We discussed that COVID-19 had been measured at 0.10 - 0.14 microns large (0.0001 cm), and the doctor assured me that the new hospital grade air filtration system would filter out the virus. After I wasted 30 minutes of the doctors time discussing COVID-19, I got my teeth cleaned and it went great. No cavities!

I always enjoy my time at Dr Shapiros- her work is excellent and she will ensure a beautiful healthy smile
Out of all the dentists I've been to, Dr. Shapiro has been the best. Not only will she take the time to explain everything, but she also has wonderful bedside manners. I highly recommend her.
I went in for my first appt exam, cleaning and consultation and left very satisfied with everything. I really like the way the options were presented and the plan moving forward.
I have been to many dentists over the years here in NYC, but Dr. Shapiro is first among equals: highly skilled, technically excellent, attention to detail, listens to what the patient wishes to accomplish--and has winning charm, too.
Dr. Shapiro has a wonderful disposition. The dental care that I have received has always been top tier. The office is clean and well organized. The staff is friendly and extremely helpful. I am always satisfied with the dental services that are provided to me.
Dr. Shapiro was incredibly kind and friendly. She felt extremely genuine and was great at reassuring me and explaining everything I needed to know. Additionally, she works so efficiently and quickly! It was one of the quickest dental appointments I’ve had but felt like everything was done perfectly. Thanks, Dr. Shapiro!!
The best! Dr. Shapiro and her staff did a great job of making me feel comfortable right off the bat. Dr Shapiro clearly explained what she was seeing in my xrays and what the care plan would be. Very happy I found her!
She is the best of best -!
Very positive experience: welcoming, knowledgeable and meticulous.
I just met Dr. Shapiro for the first time and was very impressed by her welcoming and calm demeanor, her honesty, professionalism, and her perfectionism -- which is what you want from a dentist providing you with a long lasting , aesthetically pleasing smile. I've already sent friends to her office -- that's how confident I am in her skill.
I've been seeing Dr Shapiro for 3 years now, and she's great. She's knowledgeable and efficient, and is always looking out for her patients' best interest. Shout out also to her assistant, who is so friendly, and to Ken from the front desk who is so patient with my eternal rescheduling and insurance questions.
The entire staff is so kind and supportive and caring and attentive They’re great
For over a decade I have trusted my dental care to Yelena. With much appreciation, I have alway been a happy patient. Always recommend Yelena when opportunity provides.
Great experience every time, very friendly and welcoming doctor and staff. Honest feedback and advice on oral health. Never tries to upsell additional services that are not necessary.
It’s always a warm and comfortable experience
