Dr. Kaplan took over on a difficult root canal that my regular, very skilled dentist could not handle. He saw me immediately, treated me painlessly in his very clean comfortable offices, where all of the staff were friendly and efficient. Covid-19 protocols were followed. On my second visit the operation was completed quickly and without anesthesia (my option). I would recommend Dr. Kaplan highly.

Living 3 hours away from New York City and retired I have been visiting a local dentist for cleaning and exams. When a problem arose with a tooth my local dentist hesitated to treat it as it had a previous filling and a bridge connected to it. He was concerned the roots may have calcified and be hard to locate resulting in removing the bridge and possibly the tooth. So I contacted my former dentist in New York City who recommended I see Dr Steven Kaplan, Endodontist. I called his office and received courteous response from his professional receptionists. An appointment was promptly scheduled, He reviewed my history, completed his exam and provided a detailed explanation of how he would penetrate through the bridge, saving it and the tooth. I was made very comfortable by his assistant throughout all the procedure. At no time did I feel any pain or discomfort. Often Dr Kaplan asked how I was doing throughout his work. Since the roots were calcified it required more than one visit to accomplish his work. Each was a pleasant experience and I was always the recipient of a follow-up telephone call from Dr Kaplan asking me how I was doing. My response each time was fine with no pain or problem. Dr Kaplan provided his personal cell phone number in case I needed to speak with him. Even though it takes me 3 hours to travel to see him, it was well worth it. Today it is so rare to find a dedicated professional and staff concerned for a patient and willing to make them feel so reassured and comfortable. I will be following up with Dr Kaplan as he requested to be certain all is going well with the tooth. I certainly recommend him for anyone who has a similar problem. He and his staff put the patient at ease and provide excellent treatment. Doctor Kaplan is the greatest!

I just went to the best root canal doctor in the country, if not the world. Dr. Steven Kaplan is a one of a kind. He is an expert and professional in his field, has a huge and funny personality, and is the ONLY doctor I will use if I ever have another root canal. And BTW, check him out on YouTube. He sings, plays guitar, and writes his own music. Pretty awesome if you ask me.

Dr. Kaplan is the most amazing, caring and devoted endodontist. I needed a root canal re-treatment and his work is thorough and painfree! He is very kind and takes the time to listen and personally follow up after the procedure! Im so grateful that I was referred to him! It was definitely worth the trip to the city. Would highly recommend!

What an outstanding experience with Dr Steven Kaplan. I contacted him as an emergency and née patient and he took the time the same day to fit me on his schedule providing all the care my tooth needed for a retreatment of the root canal. Followed up with a phone call to see how I was doing and scheduled my follow up appointment. Can’t say enough about his professionalism and level of care. Also his team is truly compassionate. Highly recommend him!

Excellent doctor!! My treatment of the root canal was a breeze. I am the person who does dental work often and can say that Dr Kaplan is great, patient, takes his time to do work. I have not felt rushed or any pain. Highly recommend if you seek dental treatment. And yes the office staff is also great and office is newly renovated. Best in NyC.

Dr. Kaplan and his staff are top notch. I have (unfortunately) had to have more than one root canal and every time Dr. Kaplan has squeezed me in for an (emergency) appointment. He is always thoughtful, funny and thorough as well as kind and considerate. He is a true professional and I very much appreciate his help!

Doctor Kaplan is one of the kindest people you could ever meet. I had an emergency root canal that he performed.. He spent lots of time with me . The needles to numb the area didn’t even hurt . He calls you to see if everything is going ok .. He is a very compassionate doctor and does excellent work .

One of the best dentists Ive ever met. Dr. Kaplan takes all the worry and fear out of a root canal and truly puts your mind at ease. Ive never had a dentist personally call to check in on me before and after a procedure - its most reassuring to have this level of caring. The staff at his practice are the kindest, and most courteous. The only downside is the wait time. It took about 40 minutes after I arrived for my procedure to get started. Thankfully, its a pleasant office environment and a fairly comfortable wait. I guess Dr. Kaplan is in high demand which is no surprise. :)

Would definitely recommend Dr. Kaplan. He helped my husband with two root canals, with the first being an emergency. He got us in immediately and checked in on my husband after every visit, calling us after his busy day to make sure everything was ok post treatment. His office team was also very accommodating to our needs. Would highly recommend.

Certainly don’t wish root canals on anyone but Dr Kaplan has provided wonderful pain-free service on a couple of occasions where there was no alternative that my primary dentist could offer. I highly recommend the compassionate endodontics services.

I am not a review writer normally. Dr. Kaplan is a rock star! I was referred by my primary dentist for a root canal. I showed up in Dr. Kaplans office in a bad mood and told him as soon as I got there, I needed to be out in an hour. Professional, gracious, genuine, smart, talented, kind and thorough are words I would use to describe him. I am not sure I could have found a better place to go.

In these challenging pandemic times, visiting a dentist is not the most comfortable of decisions. However, some procedures are too important to postpone.  Root Canal, in my opinion, is one of those procedures.  So when it became necessary for me to have work done, my dentist recommended Dr. Steven Kaplan, Endodontist at Compassionate Care.First of all the experience was painless.  Dr. Kaplan is extremely sensitive to the needs of his patients. He even called me at home after the procedure to make sure I was doing well. His office is meticulous and his staff are all so kind and comforting. So if you are considering root canal work,  I highly recommend Dr. Steven Kaplan at Compassionate Care. Appropriately named . . . . that says it all!

I’m a third year dental student. When it came time for my wife to get a root canal we chose Dr. Kaplan and he did a great job. Dr. Kaplan was understanding, thorough, and kind. His staff is professional and compassionate as well. Btw, subsequent to this, I have shadowed Dr. Kaplan and witnessed the talent that he has first hand. From a future dentists perspective , Dr. Kaplan is extremely experienced and clearly has a vast amount of knowledge on root canals. Him and all of his associates are up to date on the latest technology. I would highly, highly recommend him.

Dr. Kaplan stepped in and completed my root canal seamlessly. Previously, two other dentists (at 1 practice) really left me hanging when a piece of tool, 13 mm in length, broke off and was left inside my canal.In a panic and in pain, I called left a message for Dr. Kaplan, who called me back and explained what should be done to help me with my tooth.I set my appointment and met with Dr. Kaplan who arranged his schedule to see me ASAP.Dr. Kaplan explained everything to me, what needed to be done, then proceeded to X-rays, then to the dentist chair where he removed the broken tool. Definitely a cheering moment.I went back again and Dr. Kaplan finished the job.If you need a root canal and your looking for a professional, knowledgeable, and a kind hearted dentist, Dr. Kaplan is the to go doctor.

I don’t normally write reviews but I think it’s important to review professional people who are excellent in what they do.I needed a root canal and was a bit scared of the procedure., however, from the moment I met Dr. Kaplan, I knew I was in good hands. I walked in to a caring environment where the staff smiled and made me feel comfortable and l left knowing that I got the best dental care around.I can’t say enough about Dr. Kaplan. He is the consummate professional, has a great personality and is the most caring endodentist I ever met. He was genuinely attentive, gentle and always took the time to explain what needed to be done. He provided valuable advice throughout the procedure and even called me the next morning to see how I was doing.It is not easy to find a good dentist, and especially an endodontist who knew exactly how to work on my complicated tooth and Dr. Kaplan provided a perfect result. I hope I never have to have another root canal but if I do, I would go again within a heartbeat, and would recommend Dr. Kaplan and Compassionate Endodontics to all of my family and friends. I highly appreciate this practice as I’ve always had a great experience and am always satisfied with Dr. Kaplans high quality of work.

Dr Kaplan was referred to me by my wonderful general dentist - and I now see why: Dr Kaplan is kind, attentive, deeply experienced and skilled. He called me at home to check up on me. And I most appreciate his clear commitment to taking his time: never did I feel rushed or see him rushing. Great endodontist and really good guy!

From my first contact with Kizzie at the front desk who was very helpful in scheduling my appointment, to my last meeting with Dr Steven Kaplan upon completing my second session of root canal work, I can only praise the outstanding experience that I had.The office is tastefully decorated with soothing colors. They complied meticulously to Covid regulations.Dr Kaplan lives up to the name of his practice, as a compassionate dentist who surely understands the trepidation with which each patient enters his office. He patiently explains the procedure and then proceeds to painlessly repair the problem. If you need root canal work, dont look any further !!

Review №24

My dentist recommended Dr. Kaplan because she said: he is the best of his kind. He knows everything there is to know about root and canal work. He recently completed two procedures for me.My dentist wanted his opinion on a third tooth which, he said, did not require work. He made me feel comfortable and was highly attentive to any discomfort I had. He gave me his cell phone number making clear that I should call him if any problem occurred. The second procedure was kind of an emergency. He managed to find time for me during a major holiday week. His staff is friendly and attentive. This office has it all: a knowledgeable, honest and caring physician and a friendly staff. As my Mom used to say: they dont make them like this any more.

I first went to see Dr. Kaplan in 2006 for my first root canal and subsequently 2007 for a second. Each time was an amazingly pleasant experience and Dr. Kaplan made me feel at such ease - came away feeling great after both visits. He is without a doubt one of the most talented medical professionals I have ever encountered. Interestingly enough, we shared our musical tastes, and so much classic rock common interests. Great conversation and background music! Suffering some new, age related dental issues this past week, I just had the opportunity to see Dr. Kaplan again after many years. Was like visiting an old friend. After scoping my issue with the latest technology, he diagnosed the problem and strategized the corrective path forward. Not that I enjoy dental issues but Dr. Kaplan certainly makes it as easy as possible. I have the utmost respect for him and would not hesitate in any way to recommend Dr. Kaplan to any of my family members or closest friends..

If you are like me and the person behind the DMD degree matters to you, then Dr. Kaplan is the doctor for you!Yes, of course his reputation, experience and the outstanding treatment I get from him for the past 20+ years (😳!!!) are important to me; but it’s the general feeling you get in his office, of comfort and caring that set him apart. Somehow, I am not as nervous when I go for root canal treatment with him (3 of them so far, plus my husband -3 and our daughter - 1). Somehow, I think of it as an, ok no big deal, experience.The key is his modest unassuming attitude, mixed with funny dry humor. I sit on the chair anesthetized for root canal… and I’m laughing! Can you imagine that?!If you have questions, he explains very patiently and repeatedly if needed (in my case). If there is an emergency, he is there for you whenever you need him; with the same ‘no big deal’ attitude. I trust him completely, because he never rushes to offer more treatments. Quite the contrary. He is very conservative. He is honest and fair, very professional and very real. Yes, I am very fond of this doctor and highly recommend him.His team is a reflection of him. They are all very accessible, professional and happy to help.This office is high on my list in every respect.One recommendation: If your appointment is set for later in the day, I suggest you call the reception desk to find out if the doctor is within the time frame he hoped for. This doctor is a work horse! He gives a patient all the attention needed which may, at times, take a little longer than planned. So if you live in the City, call 40 minutes before your appointment to make sure he’s on schedule. This way you will not need to wait too long when you get there.

I had a complicated case and was referred to Dr. Steven Kaplan by Dr. Robert Veligdan, who is also a very caring dentist. Dr. Kaplan and his office were so helpful, right from the start. He and I spoke on the phone before I even came into the office. We discussed my situation (calcified tooth in tricky location) and whether root canal v. extraction was best route). Dr. Kaplan listened when I explained I wanted to use products that were more bio-friendly and least toxic wherever possible. He understood my concerns and wishes. When I came into the office for treatment, he and the entire staff took every care to make sure everything was happened safely and with caring precision. I appreciated the time he took to examine me, determine my options and present them to me without pressure.The entire staff was warm and welcoming. Luis assisted him on the procedures (root canal over two visits). and they make a great team. Their rapport and experience put me right at ease. I felt in very good hands. As complicated as this root canal was for Dr. Kaplan, he and Luis made it easy for me.Dr. K also gave me his cell number, as well as called and followed up after each visit.All in all, my experience was truly a relief and a pleasure. They loved my homemade smile mask I wore to the first visit, so I mailed them some smiles for their own masks. On visit #2, they said they had been wearing them since the arrived. I took a picture of us.Thank you Dr. Kaplan and your whole office! I have a lot to smile about thanks to you!

I was recommended to Dr Kaplan by my own dentist, saying he’s the best in the field. My initial fears of root canals were allayed as soon as I sat on to the chair. With his gentle demeanor and expertise, Dr Kaplan cleared the infection and completed the root canal. Most amazingly, I didn’t have any pain afterward at all! Dr Kaplan called to check on me personally. Great experience!

I traveled all the way to New York from Georgia because I was unable to find a good endodontist. I was recommended to Dr. Steven Kaplan, who did an amazing job with my root Canal. I did not even need an injection for what was supposed to be a painful experience. Now all is well. I am willing to travel from Atlanta to New York City to have any persedure done by doctor Kaplan.

My experience with Dr. Kaplan was absolutely fantastic. I was in terrible pain and my general dentist, at the time, told me I needed an emergency root canal so I walked into Dr. Kaplan’s office to ask if it was possible to get an appointment today. Within 20 minutes Dr. Kaplan began the root and relieved me of the absolute worst pain I have ever experienced in my life.During the procedure Dr. Kaplan put me at ease with his humour and original music. His staff are also exceptional, his state of the art chair is very comfortable and has great views of midtown. Dr. Kaplan truly takes pride in his work and I am so grateful for the exceptional experience.

I was referred to Dr. Kaplan by my regular dentist, Dr. Robert Veligdan (also a terrific dentist), to perform a root canal on a tooth on which Dr. V had already done a root canal but which appeared to still have a persistent infection deep in the roots of the tooth. Dr. Kaplan confirmed the infection with his amazing 3D X-Ray machine and proceeded to successfully do the work in 2 sessions with a minimum of discomfort or wasted time. In addition to being expert at his craft, Dr. Kaplan was friendly and efficient. Louie, his technician was efficient and very nice, as well. My sessions with Dr. Kaplan were as pleasant as a visit for root canal could be.

Dr. Kaplan is a phenomenal endodondist, but I think simply commenting on his expertise, professionalism, dedication to patient-centered care and wonderful taste in music would be retreading old ground. I will take this opportunity then to wax poetic about the care he has invested in building and running a practice that reflects his commitment to exceptional treatment--from the desk staff, to the doctors he has chosen to work alongside him, to prompt and attentive communications and unheard-of availability in addressing patients concerns and emergencies. Thank you, Dr. Kaplan!

Dr. Kaplan is a true blessing. I felt pain in my tooth on a Saturday and called him to ask him if I could make an appointment for that week. His office wasn’t open obviously that night and he told me to come to his house to his office in the basement. He immediately set it up and took care of me on the spot with the same cheer and joy he shows each day at the office. He followed up with me personally each week to see how my tooth was doing and when I came to his office to finish up the root canal i felt no pain whats so ever. He’s a miracle worker. It’s the most painless and joyful experience ever. He’s a rockstar!!

My dentist revealed that I needed a root canal and recommended Dr. Kaplan as a local candidate. Needless to say, I arrived nervous being that it was said there was a good chance my tooth would not be able to be saved. Dr. Kaplan was patient, kind and cordial as I underwent my treatment. In all my visits he kept me informed of all the possibilities and ultimately saved my tooth! I was extremely happy with the results but also with the bed side manor of everyone who worked there. A great team and a great attitude throughout. While no one wishes to have a root canal, I can assure you if you need one, you will be in good, experienced and caring hands. I wish the best to my new friends at Compassionate Endodontics.

Dr. Kaplan took much effort into finding out the source of my pain and helping resolve it. I came to him originally for one root canal and he also treated an infection under an old root canal done by another dentist. With great patience he treated me several times, each time with great care and in a very thorough manner. Even at the end of a full days work, Dr. Kaplan took the time to work meticulously and to take good care of me.He also thoroughly treated my gum that was in pain. I felt like I was being treated by a very knowledgeable and caring Endodontist.He showed a lot of care for my pain. He even called me the day after my appointment to see how I was feeling. He even gave me his personal cell phone number to reach him if I had a problem. He is very accessible.Dr. Kaplans light conversation in the office helped calm me and put me at ease.He has a nice sense of humor.He had low playing music in the background. (One time he even played the Presidents address in the background!)Dr. Kaplans office is very conveniently located right around the corner from the F train. His office is very clean, and much care is taken for proper hygiene and sanitary conditions especially in light of Covid. The entire staff was warm and welcoming. Their friendliness and warmth made me feel at ease.Thank you so much Dr. Kaplan and staff!You are truly one of a kind!

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Kaplan. He performed a heroic root canal and saved my back tooth a few months ago.I had consulted with three other dentists and they all felt the tooth needed to be extracted. Dr. Kaplan has the skills, care and patience to work on challenging cases like mine and was able to save the tooth so I didnt have to get an implant. Id highly recommend him for endodontic services.

Dr. Kaplan did a fantastic job with my root canal. He patiently explained treatment options before beginning treatment, squeezed me into his already tight schedule on short notice, and always asked how I was feeling while working on me to make sure I wasnt in too much pain or discomfort. He even called me on the weekend to check on how I was doing and let me know that I could call him any time with questions or concerns. Highly recommend!

My extremely meticulous regular dentist of 25+ years has handled some of my root canals himself, but for this latest one, he urged me to go Dr. Kaplan, the specialist to whom he entrusts his own mouth . Everyone with whom I dealt at this practice has been friendly, competent and extremely professional. My tooth was very infected (despite antibiotics), very painful, and my dentist was not certain it could be saved. Dr. Kaplan squeezed me into his very busy schedule, and, after 2 sessions and a different antibiotic , I have a pain-free tooth thats going to be with me a while longer. Highly recommend this practice if you are unfortunate enough to need a root canal. They are a pleasure to deal with.

Dr. Steve Kaplan, is probably the best endodontist in the City and State of New York!As far as skill(s), there is none better!In addition, he is compassionate, gentle and to boot, has a great sense of humor!!While many people have fears and nightmares before and/or after getting root canal, it is quite different with Dr. Kaplan!!In my case, he was so gentle, that without having any anesthesia, I actually fell asleep while he was doing his work. He had to wake me up because I was snoring. (LOL)When I brought this to his attention he humbly said: “you know I’ve been doing this for so many years, I finally feel like I know what I’m doing.”I can make this statement without reservation:If you have or think you have the need for root canal, there is no one better to see. He will turn your nightmare into a pleasant dream!The buck stops with Dr. Kaplan!!

After being referred to Dr Kaplan by my own dentist (who happens to also be my son!) I knew I would be in good hands. He is extremely gentle and very caring. Also really knows his stuff and will explain everything to you if you want to know. He calls afterwards to check up on you.He is funny as most dentists try to be but he really is! You won’t be disappointed. I didn’t even need a local for the second visit. He is that gentle. If you need a root canal go see Dr Kaplan.

Dr. Steve is the best dentist that I ever met in my life. I would have dated him 25 years ago and he would have saved all my teeth. . I had very tremendous pain for 3 months and my dentist could not help me, so I went online and I saw doctor Steven kaplan and I felt that he was the one that would help me and save me from my misery.The first visit was absolutely amazing. I went home feeling great and I was very excited to come back for my next visit. Today is December 17th and can you believe all his patients canceled being that there was a snow storm. Dr. Kaplan went out of his way to come and treat me and he does not live in the city. Dr. Steven kaplan will never disappoint you. He gave me all his attention being that I was his only patient today. I thank God for his life and service.

Dr Kaplan handled my root canal with great care and compassion. He checked out my tooth very carefully before proceeding in order to rule out other problems and avoid a root canal if possible. He was very meticulous and I went home pain free. As a sign of his concern for his patients he even called me personally a day later to check how I was doing.Certainly recommend Dr Kaplan.

I was referred to Dr. Kaplan by my regular dentist. It was very easy to schedule and get an appointment asap. His staff is courteous and truly wants to help you and make your experience as pleasant as possible. I appreciate that while they dont take my insurance, they submitted the reimbursement paperwork on my behalf and by doing so saved me ton of time.Dr. Kaplan himself is a rockstar. He is everything you want your dentist to be. Im not the bravest patient so he was very accommodating and made me feel at ease. I loved his chair side manner - he is very delicate and gentle and wont let me get too anxious about the treatment going on. He got me out of pain and my tooth feels great and doesnt bother me anymore! If I ever need to get a root canal again - I will definitely return.

Being a public figure it’s hard to find someone you trust with your teeth when you have an issue! Dr. Kaplan has given myself and my husband Joe the easiest pain free root canals in the world!! He is fast, makes you feel completely comfortable and most importantly it’s painless. There has never been an issue as I have had with previous Endodontists that have actually missed roots in the process. It’s much more spa like than medical in experience, perfect for anyone who is nervous for dental treatments!

Really glad I found Compassionate after my dentist told me I had to go to a specialist for my root canal. This was my first one so now that I am more familiar with the process, I would only get a root canal at an endodontist and never at a general. My case was not as straight forward as most root canals yet it never felt like I wasn’t in good hands. Everyone at the office including the front desk was super friendly and caring and it was comforting to see all precautions were being taken during COVID.

Dr. Steve did a root canal on my young grand daughter. She had been in pain for a while and no one could figure out what was wrong. He was amazing! He made her comfortable and allayed her fears, and fixed her problem. She even looked forward to her recall visit. He is great with kids!!!!

I came to see Dr. Kaplan for a root canal after experiencing severe pain in one of my teeth. Dr. Kaplan made time to see me THAT day vs other doctors who only were able to see me a few weeks out. The procedure was as painless as could be, Dr. Kaplan was very attentive, and continued to check up on me throughout the process (and even calling me on the weekend at home to see how I was doing). In addition, the entire staff at the office was just great.I couldnt recommend Dr. Kaplan or his staff any more for any type of dental work.

I was in an indescribable amount of pain when I was referred to this office. Dr. Kaplan did a great job finding out which tooth caused the pain related to the large infection in my jaw. He took all of the necessary steps to stop the infection (including a root canal) and made himself available every step of the way. I was grateful I could text him if I had any problems. I’m glad I was referred to this office. I really appreciated the compassion the professionals in this office portrayed. I would highly recommend to anyone in an emergency situation (especially during such an uncertain time as this pandemic).

Dr. Kaplan is so amazing and a artist when it comes to dentistry he did an awesome job on my root canal. I couldn’t be more happier with the office environment and Dr. Kaplan. His front desk staff is very professional and got me in right away for an emergency appointment when I was feeling a lot of pain. He is truly wonderful and very experienced he saved my tooth when all the other dentist said it couldn’t be saved Thank you to compassionate Endodontics!

Dr. Kaplan is just remarkable. He performed a root canal to save one of my teeth which would have been pulled out as per consultations with two other dentists, he also performed an emergency root canal on another one of my teeth fixing another dentists errors. So his skills and talents are unmatched. But on top of that, he is kind, super conscientious and a wonderful human being. He is beyond professional and cares about his patients. He follows up to ensure your not in pain even on national holidays, and is always at the ready to help you. His practice earns a MINIMUM of 5 stars. Also his practice is state of the art and upgrades all their equipment often, for hygiene and the best tech to do the best possible work on your teeth. Thank you Dr. Kaplan, you are truly Godsent!

Dr. Kaplan is totally amazing! I called him in tears with excruciating tooth pain, and he made room to see me that same day. He has unbelievable compassion, and truly cares about his patients. Though I am normally afraid of dental procedures, I actually ENJOYED my experience in his office so much! Hes super funny and sweet, and made me forget about my pain. To top it all off, after my procedure, he called me to see if I was feeling okay. His professionalism and skill is unmatched. Thank you for being there for me. Dr. Kaplan is much more than a dental surgeon. He exhibits the highest qualities of his profession and I really appreciate it!

Who wants to get a root canal in the middle of a global pandemic in one of the world epicenters? I did not, but I am so glad I did!Dr. Kaplan is amazing, and his staff is wonderful. I felt I had picked the right practice the second I walked through the door. Do not know how an endodontist’s office can emit such a zen vibe, but this one does, even in the middle of a world health crisis! The nice views are an extra perk!

Dr. Hoses in Moosaui was extremely professional, friendly, and efficient when he conducted my root canal. He constantly checked up on how I was doing during the procedure and made sure I felt no pain. He answered any questions I had and was informative. I was in and out of the office within an hour. I would recommend Compassionate Endodontics to anyone in need of a root canal.

Dr. Kaplan is an exceptional dentist. So far, he as performed two root canals for me, including one just after he opened after COVID shutdown. Dr. Kaplan and his staff were extremely caring, attentive to protocols, and called me a few times post-procedure to check on me. My wife has also used Dr. Kaplan and had a similarly positive experience. Highly recommended!

I had a great experience with Dr. Steven Kaplan. To be honest for me going to the dentist was scary. After a few minutes in the chair Dr. Steven had me laughing and at ease. He took care of my root canal and Im now happily pain free. Thank You Dr. Steven!

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Kaplan, I went to him because he has the best google reviews of any doctor in NYC and they were right!  My case was a bit complicated because my root canal was calcified causing me so much pain.When I came in he took his time with me, explained exactly what he was going to do, why and what I should expect.He managed to make the procedure more enjoyable by playing music for me and telling me jokes. Funny guy! He called me himself that night to make sure that I was feeling ok. Luckily, I did not have any pain because he is just that good.On top of that, his staff is very professional, friendly and attentive. Top notch office!

Great experience overall. Dr. Kaplan is a very experienced endodontist who helped me with a tooth that was giving me problems for YEARS. I first had a root canal on the tooth 14 years ago, then 11 years later it started giving me issues again. My primary dentist referred me to another endodontist practice and they had to retreat it twice until it felt better. However, only 2 years later it started hurting me AGAIN. So I decided to visit Dr. Kaplan for a second opinion. He studied my x-ray scans thoroughly and found that my tooth had a fourth canal that wasnt addressed (at least thats what I think he told me!), explaining perhaps why I was still having problems. A few days after my second visit with Dr. Kaplan, my tooth felt so much better - as if nothing ever happened! And during my few days of recovery, he called me several times to see how i was doing. He is really a great and highly-skilled doctor who really cares about his patients wellbeing. Highly recommend!

Dr Kaplan couldnt have been nicer and the root canal that he did for me was without any pain whatsoever. He called me on a regular basis after the work was done to make sure that I was feeling okay. It was the best experience a root canal could be!!

Im not a big reviewer, but Dr. Kaplan is truly the best. His humor made my appointment *almost* fun. While I didnt end up needing a procedure, he personally called a periodontist to let him know my situation and got me an appointment there just before the holidays. I HATE going to any type of dentist, as I have had such terrible and mediocre experiences, particularly as a freelance artist, but Id go back there in a heartbeat. Its not cheap, but its worth it.

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Lisa Tran! It is so scary when I heard that I need a root canal. I was so worried about the pain and also the cost!!! My dentist referred me to do it at Compassionate Endodontics. The practice is very clean and pretty. The purple color really calms me down. With my insurance, they paired me with Dr. Tran. She talked me through the whole procedure and how much I need to pay before the procedure to put my mind to ease. Dr. Tran was very good, I did not feel pain during the procedure, and very minor pain after the procedure. The best thing is that Dr. Tran texted me personally the next day to check on me to see how I was and if I have any concerns. The best experience I had with medical professionals!!! I will definitely recommend anyone I know who needs a root canal to go see Dr. Tran. Best dentist/endodontist I ever have!!!!

Dr. Kaplan lives up to his business name of Compassionate Endodontics. He was quickly diagnosed and treated two teeth that had been causing me pain for almost a year. What was missed by other dentists was resolved by Dr. Kaplan. His experience, patience, great music, and quirky sense of humor made my 6 visits to his chair more tolerable. Hes a pro -- if you need a root canal this is the place you want to go. Im finally pain free!

I had a fantastic experience with Dr. Kaplan after I injured myself and one of my teeth required root canal. He was extremely professional and his bedside manner was the best. He followed up with me by phone call after the procedure and I also had several free follow up visits for him to make sure that everything was healing properly. I hope I don’t need another root canal for a long time, but if I do, I will definitely go back to Dr. Kaplan. I highly recommend him.

I cant say enough about Dr. Kaplan. I was in agony and couldnt wait any longer. I called Dr. Kaplan, after seeing my dentist at 4PM and he and his office fit me into his chaotic schedule. He took me at 7PM and I left at 9 PM pain free. He also gave me his cell phone number and told me to call him, regardless of time, if I was in pain or had any issues. I didnt need to call him but it made me feel confident that he was there if I needed anything. He also called me first thing the next morning to check in on me. In todays world you dont get service like that anymore. I am now pain free and feeling great. He came through in an emergency and I highly recommend him..

I have never encountered a dental medical professional with the amount of skill, care, and compassion as Dr Kaplan. He literally spent hours and hours to save my tooth, and stayed in the office till very late at night when i was in a tremendous amount of pain to relieve the pain and save the tooth. He also has a fantastic medical assistant who is helpful and kind and efficient. I would never have a root canal done elsewhere in NYC, and neither should you.

I received the most excellent of service and care at Compassionate Endodontics. One day I needed to have an emergency root canal, and Doctor Kaplan stayed late into the evening so that he could treat me as quickly as possible, which I was grateful for as I was in an immense amount of pain and discomfort. He expertly answered all the questions I had for him (of which there were many), and made sure I completely understood the procedure and the aftercare. I never felt any pain or discomfort during the procedure, and during my follow up appointment I did not even need any anesthetic. Additionally, he made great conversation and ensured that I was comfortable throughout the process, even going as far as asking me if I would like to play my favorite kind of music during the procedure to calm me down. Truly the best dental care I have ever received, could not recommend more.
