Patient`s feedbacks
Rachel C, NJ
“Dr. Alwakeel is the nicest guy! He is extremely personable, explains everything thoroughly, and leaves time for questions. My dental-apprehensive teenager had 4 wisdom teeth removed & Dr. Alwakeel made him feel so at ease. We wished we could give him more business, haha! Highly recommended!"
"I highly recommend Dr. Alwakeel. Personable, competent, explained everything thoroughly and provided time for questions. He removed 4 wisdom teeth from my apprehensive family member & it went so smoothly, including recovery! A trusted doctor!"
“Dr. Mostafa Alwakeel saved my life on 2/15/24. I am suffering root canal infection that has not been healing for months now and he provided me with the best possible options without jumping to extraction. He could have easily chosen to extract my tooth without weighing out the options but he considered my demographics and provided the best consultation. He advised my situation by considering my age and diagnoses. Many thanks, Dr. Alwakeel..”
