Absolutely the most awesome dentist I’ve ever met! Dr. Flores’ professional warm caring personality is comforting. There is something about his soft spoken voice and gentle hand that makes me feel at ease in the dental chair. I look forward to future visits!

Everyone was welcoming, accommodating and informative. I was able to see the doctor on my scheduled time slot! Thank you doctor and staff for giving me a warm welcome.
ZocDoc Reviews

Dr. Lee is super friendly and understanding, as well as knowledgeable and willing to explain everything patiently. Definitely not a dentist you need to be nervous visiting!
Nurys Vargas

This was my first visit and when I say it was awesome it was awesome! Dr. Lee was very personable, imfornmative and honest. My past experience haven’t been that great b/c the past dentists Ive had were so money hungry but Dr. Lee was very honest and reasonable. Her staff was so friendly and personable. I think I just found my permanent dentist.
Tal Genkin

Visited once and had a great experience. Both the service and the dental care were great. Couldn’t ask for more.
Krystle Ragusa

Dr. Flores and Dr. Lee are wonderful dentists! They both took time to hear out the concerns I have with my smile and addressed them with kindness and thoroughness. Never once did they make me feel bad, even when I had quite a few cavities. The quality of their work is top notch, and you can’t even tell which teeth have the fillings. Highly recommend!
Jennifer Irigoyen

Dr. Lee is amazing! My son came in for a cleaning, and she was patient and very informative. Friendly, great staff and beautiful office! I am recommending everyone I know!

Semi Baik

Dr.Lee is not only honest and professional but was very patient in answering all the questions and concerns that I had. I was always TERRIFIED of visiting a dentist. Luckily, a friend of mine recommended Dr. Lee so I tried her and now I am 100% satisfied by the care. No up-selling, flexible appointment schedule. I also highly recommend Dr.Lee especially those with kids :-)
BoYoung Cho

Dr.Lee is honest and caring, and never judgemental! She always makes sure I feel comfortable with my treatments and answers all my questions. Dr.Lee is warm yet very professional. Always on time, short wait time. Very happy with her, and would recommend her to anyone with confidence.
Aisha Hasham

Professional, caring, and comfortable clinic. Dr Lee is an amazing dentist.
Theresa Palmer

I’ve always had problem with my teeth, and Dr.Lee is the only dentist I trust since I moved to NY 5 years ago. Always honest, caring, and on time!! I fell in love with her when she came in on FRIDAY NIGHT just for me, to fix my broken front tooth from an accident, because she didn’t want me to be in any more pain or shame! She knows my teeth, and I trust her 100%!!

I first encountered Thyme Dental Care over a holiday weekend when I had chipped one of my teeth. I was nervous that I would have a difficult time getting it fixed since many dental offices were closed. I'm glad I settled on this place - the staff were courteous, friendly, and efficient. Dr. Andrew Flores took the time to explain the options for repair that were available to me before I was charged a dime. He guaranteed the tooth repair for a year which allows me to come back in free of charge if anything happens to the fixed tooth. I've now been to both their Midtown and Upper East Side locations and I really appreciate how convenient their locations are. Not only will you receive quality dental care here, but you'll encounter a friendly and knowledgeable dentist and dental staff who care just as much about your patient experience as they do your dental needs.
Arely Flores

Best dentist Dr Andrew F . in all of Metro NY with one of the latest gadgets to manage my dental care short term and long term. Very thorough and educated me about my overall oral health!! A wow experience.
Michael Tilman

Best dentist in NYC. His professionalism is best in class and he can work a mean painless drill. Violet is my lovely MARQUIS DE SADE but w/o her, my smile would not be as bright. I keep coming back (with my wife) to her exquisite embrace - for cleaning., of course.
Steven Pitts

I drive quite a distance when I need dental work done to see Dr Patel. Its totally worth the trip. I'm ultra sensitive to tooth pain and had always been nervous of going to the dentist because of this. Dr Patel and his staff make scheduling easy and the work is done thoroughly and without pain. Dr Patel has a very gentle touch, will spend time explaining everything that needs to be done, and does great cosmetic work as well.
Lauren Franklin

My mom, sister and I have been coming to Dr. Patel since he took over the practice from Dr. Mergler a few years ago. I must say, I have NEVER enjoyed going to the dentist. In fact, I've always dreaded going as it was always an uncomfortable, arduous, and most times painful experience for me. Dr. Patel has changed all that. Not only do I genuinely enjoy watching the years of dental neglect fade away as Dr. Patel and his staff address the sorry state I've left my teeth in, but I actually enjoy the process as well. There's no pain and no stress. The office is always full of life (and great music!) and Patel and his wonderful staff feel like family. Violet, Karen, and Kevin have been there from the start and are a little dental home away from home. Dr. Patel is thorough, communicative, attentive, and understanding. Although not all insurances are accepted, Dr. Patel will work with you to take care of your most problematic issues. I've had to pay out-of-pocket, but IT IS WORTH IT for the peace of mind he affords. I have no doubt that a visit to Patel's office will change any apprehensive feelings about going to the dentist. And you'll have a healthy mouth to boot!
Ben Marz

Dr. Patel is a great dentist! He is very knowledgeable, always explaining what he is going to do to your mouth next. He works with you to find out the best way to pay for your visit, has a very skilled woman who does the cleaning of your teeth. The receptionist is nice and receptive (easy to talk to and make appointments with). Finally, while you are waiting for your appointment to start, he has this great massage chair which will totally relax you for your visit!
Mikki Meyer

Dr. Patel and his staff are fantastic ! He has been my dentist for the past seven years and is impeccable, detail oriented and pain free. He has the highest of standards and keeps his prices reasonable. As a person, he is warm and caring and I would highly recommend him to anyone, without reservation. He was on staff at USC Dental school and treated celebrities in Hollywood before relocating to NY. Call him for an appointment- you won't be disappointed !!!!
Yudelka Solano

It was an amazing experience. Dr. Parag and his staff are very gentle and dedicated. I am so happy with the work that he did on my teeth, it was quick and painless. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Soosan Silanee

My teeth have never been cleaned with such care. I leave with pearly whites and no fuzz! Dr. Patel is very professional and patient with me and willing to answers any of my questions. He really cares for each individual. Thanks!
K Singleton

Dr and Mrs. Patel are dynamic people....helpful, compassionate, knowledgeable, resourceful, and professional as are their staff members, Violet, Karen, and Kevin. I am quite pleased with Dr. Patel's services. I'm an Invisalign user (at his recommendation) and thanks to his impeccable care and expertise, my teeth are finally straightened. He just did fillings and bleaching and I am quite pleased with the results. Next up will be cap replacements and I know he will do a fantastic job on these as welI. I am truly blessed to have him as my Dentist and Violet as my Hygienist.
Tia Brown

I had a freak accident and cracked my two front teeth 48 hours after my first visit with Dr. Patel! I called his office and they squeezed me into his schedule that day. Dr. Patel talked to me about my options and walked me through the entire process. I was pretty banged up, with tons of stitches in my face and nerve damage. Dr. Patel exhibited extreme patience as I jumped — and periodically hit his hand away. Best of all, I have my smile back.
Raj Bhatia

I am the biggest baby in the world -- at 49 -- I am terrified to go to the dentist -- period -- Dr. Patel was completely understanding about my situation and made me feel completely secure and comfortable during the procedure -- its has totally changed my feeling about going to the dentist!!
Annanee Wong

That's my best dental team to date! Dr. Patel is a personable dentist who is passionate about his work and really cares about his patients. He takes time show you Xrays, and educates you on the best way to maintain the overall health of your mouth. I now have a partnership my dentist, which I've never experienced with any other dental group. As I age (gracefully...mind you) it's important to maintain! Healthy teeth and strong gums are what keeps me youthful! When I leave his chair, I feel well informed and well equipped! The staff is humbled, friendly, and respectful. There is an air of respect in this office and you can sense the calm and serenity of this dynamic collaborative team. If you are not getting this kind of service today, pls try them out. I give this group a *****" HIGHLY RECOMMEND" ***** 5 stars! 57W57th St is the way to go! Thank you team & Dr. Patel ! You're the best!
Seth Cabret

I had a really bad toothache and needed a wisdom tooth pulled out. I was able to make it in the next day and it was a quick process. Parag is a very cool dentist and wouldn't go to any other for the care of my teeth.
