“I've been seeing Dr. Goldstein as my dentist ever since I moved to New York 25 years ago ... in fact, I think he's my longest-running relationship! I've always found Team Goldstein to be sharp, friendly, professional - everyone has a stake in making you a comfortable and satisfied patient. It shows in how they run the business. I know I'm in good hands and getting the best dental treatment available.”

“Alan Goldstein, my dentist of 25 years, replaces “dentist dread” with a smile. Is it the fact that he is a great dentist? Or that he is bright, alive and always up on the latest in dentistry? Or that he runs the best medical office I have ever been to? It's a little bit of everything. A great dentist and a mensch with great staff make for a truly winning team and experience. I've recommended him to countless friends and family members who have become big fans as well. That says something.”

“My wife and I have been patients of Drs. Leon Tombacher and Alan Goldstein at Laser Dentistry for more than five years. I didn’t know what quality dental care was until I started going to Laser Dental Care. The professional service itself is unlike nothing I had experienced before. The follow up ‘how are you doing calls,’ and the reminder calls to prompt me that an appointment is coming up are very helpful. There are no surprises with the billings.
“Everything is discussed thoroughly before any extensive care is undertaken. We both needed extensive dental care, crowns and implants. I am very pleased and feel fortunate to have been referred to Drs. Goldstein and Tombacher.”

“I have been a patient of Dr. Goldstein’s for more than 16 years. During that time I’ve had many different and complex dental procedures from crowns to laminates and I’ve always been completely satisfied. Alan possesses dentistry skills that no other dentist has even come close to demonstrating and can correct any problem that I have brought to his attention.”
- Timothy Murphy
“I can’t believe it’s been 25 plus years, of what turns out to be the longest relationship I’ve ever had. I must admit that it has been a good time had by all. As we all know, Alan really knows how to make it all so much fun.
“A little pullin’, a little drillin’, a little pushin’ and a little scrapin’, but, the most amazing thing is, how does he get those big hands in your mouth?”
- Frederick Hollingsworth
“Dr. Goldstein, or Alan, as he prefers to be called by his patients, is an extremely skilled dentist, and maybe more important, a wonderful person. I have been his patient for over twenty years, because I have found his demeanor and interest in his patients so refreshing. He is cheerful, professional and concerned for his patients' welfare, and he will always come through in an emergency, whether it means fitting you into a busy schedule, or coming in on an evening or weekend especially to see you. He is up-to-date on the latest techniques in dentistry and has done some miraculous work. Alan is also straightforward -- he will suggest some techniques if he thinks they would truly help, but he will never push his ideas further than a patient wants to go. He treats his staff like family, and it shows. They all do very high quality work, and are happy in what they do. I am loyal to Alan, because I feel that he is truly loyal both to his staff and his patients. I know that few people look forward to going to the dentist, but Alan and his colleagues at Laser Dental Care have successfully created a calm and pleasant atmosphere, where you can relax and trust in their expertise.”
- Emily Sack
“Dr. Goldstein is a wonderful man who just happens to be my dentist. After four years of living out of state, I still fly in for my appointments. I refuse to see anybody else.”

“Alan Goldstein has been my dentist for over 20 years. He and his staff are indeed worthy of loyalty. They are the quintessential professionals. I can't overstate their expertise and the care with which they treat all patients. I live in Soho and don't have to go all the way up to the Westside for dental care - but I do make the effort because I trust Alan and his colleagues without hesitation.
“Nothing dentured, nothing gained!!”
- Carmen Ventura
“Alan Goldstein has been my dentist for nearly 30 years, and that in and of itself says a lot! Not only is his work impeccable, but the professionalism and, perhaps more important, the caring and helpfulness that everyone in the office freely gives, from the front desk receptionists to the doctors, is extraordinary.”
- Ira Rosenblum
“Excellent dentistry and outstanding customer service make visits to Laser Dental a painless experience on all fronts.”
- Jason Eisworth
“Dr. Goldstein’s staff is always welcoming, caring and responsive, and the office is always clean and presentable. I had a bridge installed 14 years ago and it still fits perfectly without any problems. Alan always thoroughly answers my questions no matter how long it takes to understand the dental problem or procedure.”
- Jolanta Murphy
“I've been Alan's patient for over 20 years. He's a great guy and a skilled professional, and I have tremendous confidence in his ability. His staff is both capable and welcoming. They make the whole experience painless.”
- Stewart Tabin
"I have been a patient of Dr. Alan Goldstein's office for over 15 years and have always been more than pleased with the level of care I have received. Dr. Goldstein and his wonderful staff make me feel as though I am a family member and their efficiency cannot be topped. They never keep me waiting and their extremely flexible hours make my life easier, enabling me to show off that luminous smile. I would highly recommend them to one and all!”
- Deborah Bacon-Rothchild
“I thought I found the perfect dentist 18 years ago ... great cleanings, fillers, laminates and check-ups. I was right. ...and that goes for the entire team.
“Ask me for another testimonial after the next 18 years!”
- Gloria Kurant
“For more than 20 years (except when I lived in California) Dr. Alan Goldstein has provided me with the best of dental care, coupled with a professional, humane and socially conscious office. This practice combines skill, passion, and compassion, and this indeed is rare in my experience. This may sound odd, but more than once when I have visited other dentists when I lived outside of New York, they have commented on the quality of the complex bridge and crown work of Dr. Goldstein. I would recommend this practice to any of my friends still on the West Side or in suburban New York (where I live now).”
- David Feinman
“Alan is not only a great dentist, he is a genuinely good person. He did a wonderful job laminating my front teeth and has also made my home a more pleasant place. For years I admired a wonderful Dufy poster hanging in his reception area. When he replaced it with a painting done by another patient he gave the poster to me. It now hangs in my living room and I still love it. Thanks Alan!”
- Sandra Siegel
“I have been a client of Dr. Goldstein for about 20 years, and both he and his staff are extremely competent, professional and courteous. They make you feel as if you are one of the ‘family.’ A few years ago, I had cosmetic work performed and I continuously receive compliments on the workmanship and questioned on ‘where did you have it done.’ It does not appear as if I have laminates. In fact, I referred a co-worker, a New Jersey resident, who was interested in having a spacing problem cosmetically repaired. I believe the fact that my entire immediate family are clients is a true testament of the services offered by this fine practice.”
- Donna Tucker
“The fact that I've been a patient of Alan's for more than two decades makes it clear, I think, that I value both the quality of his and his staff's work and the way they all approach that work. Their (unfortunately rare) combination of exceptional skills - absolutely top notch work, performed with a light hand and a minimum of fuss - and respect for and genuine appreciation of the person in the chair are what have kept me coming back year after year.”
- Andrea Lucas
“For over 25 years, Dr. Alan Goldstein has been our dentist. His skill, expertise and commitment to our dental health have garnered our trust and respect. His caring and supportive attitude toward us as individuals has made him a valued friend. We count on his high standards and comprehensive, state-of-the-art care. In addition, we appreciate the support of his highly trained staff and the nurturing office environment he has created.”
