What families say about Chestnut Ridge Pediatric Dental.

Best experience for my 4 year old son! He actually looks forward to going to Dr. Eli and Nurse Shirley because they make it so fun for all kids! Colorful walls, toys, you name it. This office does a fantastic job in all aspects. Highly recommend!

I have been a patient here since I was very young and I am now in college, Dr. Eli and his team have never failed to make me feel comfortable and at home during my visits.

Kind and patient staff, very friendly, good bedside manner esp for kids, I wouldn’t take my family anywhere else! Dr. Eli is very knowledgeable, speaks directly to the patience, provides thorough explanations as needed. Front desk staff is also great to work with!

Everyone is so friendly. My kids always feel comfortable and welcome. Simply the way the staff says hello, calls them in—it exudes a feeling of “you belong here!”

I absolutely love this place! I travel an hour to come back here (where I used to live) because I 100% trust Dr. Eli Rachlin. I highly reccomend this dentist. He is great with the children and always explains everything that he does in detail to the parents.

This pediatric office is the best I’ve every seen, from the interactive projector games to the amazing gifts that Dr. Eli gets the children and how well he handles them in every situation. The office staff is top notch from beginning to end so professional and understanding and thorough. The hygienists are also the best in every aspect. It is always such a fun experience for the kids, the only downside is that we have to drag the kids out! Thank you Chestnut Ridge Pediatric Dental for making our children’s idea of going to the dentist such a positive experience!

Dr. Eli’s office is by far the best experience ever! He’s an amazing dentist who genuinely cares about the overall wellbeing of his patients! Sima takes excellent care of my children! And the front-desk is always warm and welcoming! Once you start taking your children to Dr. Eli, you’re not taking them anywhere else!

This was our daughter’s first visit and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From booking the appointment to the visit itself was easy, thorough and informative. The space itself is so welcoming and they really do everything they can to make both kids and parents comfortable.

My daughter had a good experience. I love and appreciate the bond doctor Eli and his assistant build with her. Of the walk in I was greeted with so much joy. The office in general really cool it is set up for kids to see it like fun rather than boring and scary which it’s great. Treatments were explained and doctor explained everything and i fully understood. I highly recommend this doctor is experienced with children and I will continue on going here thank you!
