  Cold, unprofessional, and I would NEVER recommend as a dentist.
  I am completely terrified of dentists, as so many others are too, but its a necessary evil. I saw Dr. Shapiro due to a tooth I noticed was discolored. His initial "prognosis" was that I had a "dead tooth" and I would need a root canal. I was horrified as I take excellent care of my teeth and started to cry. So he told me he would run a few extra "tests." "Tests" meant putting a piece of ice on my gums and asking if I could feel it. Since I could he reversed his "prognosis" and said my tooth was fine just not the same color as the others and we would just monitor it. I am terrified of receiving any shots in my mouth so the thought of having a root canal (never had one) is my worst possible nightmare. You would think he would be sensitive to someones fears of a dentist but apparently I was too emotional because a week later I received a letter stating I would need to seek treatment elsewhere as he would no longer treat me.
  Before throwing terms such as a DEAD TOOTH at a patient maybe he should of actually dedicated time to studying my teeth which I was paying for him to do. With so many other choices in the area I suggest going with ANYONE else because god forbid you question a bogus diagnosis, Dr. Shapiro will say HE doesn't wish to treat you going forward.
