Why people love Tend

  • Probably the best dental experience I’ve had, even as someone with significant dental work anxiety. Dr. Ferrante was top notch, super clear, and a calming presence. Had a filling replaced right during my visit, so very convenient and only took about 10 minutes. I’d highly recommend.

    Alexander S Hells Kitchen

  • Amazing experience. Staff was all lovely and skilled, while also offering referrals for unique situations but flexibly willing to work with the patient’s situation/wishes. Most comfortable cleaning I’ve ever gotten, to the point it felt more soothing than anything. Being able to balance a human touch with deep competence in a clinic like this was really surprising, even having had very positive experiences at other locations.

    Claire C Hells Kitchen

  • So far I love this place, it was my first time. I started with X-rays, and my hygienist made me feel very comfortable. She then checked my mouth and pulled up my images on the TV to walk me through everything. After that, the dentist came in to discuss next steps, as I initially came in about removing my wisdom teeth. She explained I’d start with a cleaning, then they’d assess which extractions I need and connect me with an oral surgeon if necessary. They were attentive, caring, gentle, and honest. Overall, it was a great first experience. I’ll keep you updated on future appointments.

  • The entire experience was fantastic! No wait, professional staff, and Dr. Paper was excellent! He thoroughly explained his findings about my teeth and overall oral health, and I felt adequately informed about my options going forward. Katie was so friendly and amazing, and I felt like my teeth were cleaner than ever before! Truly felt at home here :) Don’t trust all the reviews you read here, because this place is great!

  • Going to the dentist is that unenviable chore that many of us put off for years, to our own detriment myself included. My experience at Tend has totally changed my thinking. They are welcoming, kind, thorough, and transparent. Moreover, the space is a very warm and friendly environment that makes you feel good about maintaining a healthy mouth. I highly recommend them.

    Katharine E West Village

  • Absolutely amazing. They are gentle, warm, and reassuring. As someone who has dental anxiety, I felt fully at ease during an emergency root canal. I would recommend Dr. Patel especially. She is phenomenal, and I am so thankful for them. The reception is so kind and sweet, and they truly want you to feel at ease. 10/10 would recommend to everyone.

  • Loved my hygienist Sarah! She was so sweet and kept checking in on me throughout the cleaning. Everything was painless and super quick! Also always love my dentist, Dr. Larracas—she has amazing bedside manner and always listens to any/all of my concerns. Couldn’t recommend more!

    Gloria S Grand Central

  • 1st experience at Tend after a close friend had recommended it to me, and I had a Friday afternoon appointment. The assistance was very punctual, the front desk was very detail-oriented, and the staff was very friendly and kind. Looking forward to my future follow-ups.

  • Every member of staff, plus the doctor, plus the setup of the office, contributed to a great experience. Love the transparency about costs and the clear communication from the practice as well. No complaints!

  • I love Dr. Maysa Baht! She is so bubbly and has great attention to detail. Although my visit required getting multiple unpleasant shots for numbing, Dr. Maysa Baht made the visit wayyyy more enjoyable because of her bubbly and kind energy. I am happy I found a great dentist in the city that I look forward to going to.

  • Everyone is outstanding, with professionalism and concern for your dental well-being. Honest and upfront with what’s going on and why, and most importantly, what preventative measures to take and continue to follow, along with providing upfront costs if there are any.

    Katrina T Wall Street

  • I just had a root canal this morning with Dr. Johnny Kim, and it was the most painless—and actually enjoyable—experience. Dr. Kim worked hard and succeeded in saving my molar, which was a tough case. He is amazing, and it’s clear he is highly skilled and well trained. The entire staff was very caring and checked in often to see how I was doing. The office is also very nice and clean, which is another plus. Highly recommend all around!

  • Everything was very clean, and the hygienists were sanitizing everything regularly. Appointments ran on time, and I was able to get out earlier than expected. They also had a TV on the ceiling to watch during my appointment. They also had contactless payment, and let me know up front that there would be no cost associated with my visit based on my insurance. I’ll definitely be back! This is how all dentists should be!

  • Tend UWS responded to my dental emergency with care and compassion. While I experienced initial frustration with the administrative side of things, the extraordinarily high quality of the dental treatment I received is what's driving my 5-star review.

    Darren K Upper West Side

  • My hygienist, Katrina, gave me the most gentle and thorough cleaning. I’m usually sensitive to cleanings, but I didn’t feel a thing. The check-in and check-out process at the welcome bar with Jaison was smooth and quick.
