Testimonials

I’ve had the privilege of being Dr. Kurek’s patient for over 20 years. After several bad experiences with other dentists, I was thrilled to find a dental office that consistently maintained such high professional standards while demonstrating real care for their patients. I have referred many friends and family members to Dr. Kurek and they have all been impressed with the quality of care they received from the entire staff. Dr. Kurek also gracefully and skillfully helped my son overcome his childhood fear of dentists. Although I now live overseas, I still see Dr. Kurek regularly for my dental care. ~ Susan Spadanuta, Auroville, India

Dr. Kurek is a sincere, honest and extremely intelligent man. He loves what he does and his dental care and commitment to his patients reflect that. Every interaction with his office has been positive, attentive, extremely thorough and of the highest quality. ~ Chrissie Mack, Hyde Park, N.Y.

I have a beautiful smile thanks to Dr.Kurek. He and his staff always make me feel welcome when I arrive and comfortable throughout any procedure. That’s why I still make the 5-½ hour drive to his office four times a year for check-ups and cleanings. I trust Dr. Kurek and his staff completely and wouldn’t go anywhere else. ~ Mary Hilton, Madrid, N.Y.

I first saw Dr. Kurek for a second opinion after my dentist told me what I kind of already knew, that my dental care had been severely neglected and that major reconstructive procedures would be needed to correct the multiple problems that affected my dental health. Dr. Kurek was the most thorough dentist I had ever been to. He spent an extraordinary amount of time explaining the results of my examination and made recommendations for me to think about…he was never overbearing and I never felt pressured. He even offered to make my examination results available to my previous dentist should I decide to return there for my treatment. I was so impressed with Dr. Kurek that I decided to stay with him for my treatment, and here’s why. Dr. Kurek exudes confidence and professionalism. He truly cares about providing the best service he is capable of and he is dedicated to giving his patients the results they desire. My case went exactly as Dr. Kurek told me it would. I was never uncomfortable, there were no surprises. My smile has never looked better. Dr. Kurek was very gentle, had a great sense of humor and performed a very difficult task effortlessly. When I look back at the condition of my mouth when I started and compare it to where I am now, I can honestly say that the results far exceeded my expectations. If you need any dental treatment, do yourself a favor and see Dr. Kurek before making any final decisions. That’s what I did and it was the best thing I could have done for myself. ~ Mark Rosengarten, Walkill, N.Y.

For the first time in twenty years I am completely comfortable with my smile. After an accident as a child, I had been dealing with substandard options to replace my front teeth. I was having pain (again!) and my sister-in-law suggested I see Dr. Kurek. Dr. Kurek not only alleviated my pain but he was able to use implants to restore my smile. The way I see it, you can dental care anywhere, but if you want the best, you’ll have to go to The Center for Advanced Dentistry to get it. ~ Chris Lewis, Wallkill, N.Y.

I called Dr. Kurek because I was stuck! I was scared of dentists and I was concerned that my dental problems would be expensive to fix. Dr. Kurek didn’t pull any punches with me. His examination was the most thorough I have ever had and Dr. Kurek and his staff fully earned my trust and confidence that very first day. Dr. Kurek wasn’t the cheapest dentist in town, but I needed a good dentist, not a cheap one. As it turned out I didn’t just get a good dentist, I found a great dentist. Dr. Kurek is in my opinion without peer. Now not only can I smile, my teeth and even my implants feel like my own. I can eat anything I want, I have no pain and I smile all the time. Thanks Doc. ~ Joe DiBlanca, Highland, N.Y.

Dr. Kurek is the best there is, a real professional, including all the staff, and of course he’s a nice guy too! ~ Dick Williams, New Paltz, N.Y.

As a teenager I suffered from periodontal disease that over the years left me with a damaged smile, making me look well beyond my age. My teeth had been repaired several times to try to fix the problem but none of the fixes lasted very long and my condition worsened into a very complex problem. I knew something had to be done, but based upon my passed experiences I was skeptical…until I found Dr. Kurek. Dr. Kurek performed a detailed evaluation of my situation and developed a treatment plan that was well thought out, effectively communicated to me and scheduled to meet my demanding work schedule. Dr. Kurek performed each stage of my treatment with precision and compassion. The results left me with a bright new smile and the confidence to show it. Dr. Kurek and his staff at the Center for Advanced Dentistry not only changed my smile, they changed my life. ~ Dan Malinowski, New Paltz, N.Y.

From the front office to the hygienists to the assistants to Dr. Kurek himself, I feel cared for and respected as a person. While the practice is run with the highest efficiency, I have never felt rushed. Everyone is continuously concerned with my well being and to ensure the most comfortable experience possible. Follow-up care is amazing! Dr. Kurek’s practice is about me as a whole person. He helped me understand how the health of my teeth and gums are related to other aspects of my health. He and his staff are always very well prepared. I never have to re-explain anything. Dr. Kurek is technically masterful, very personable, a caring educator, and an inventive problem solver. ~ Cornelis De Groot, Ph.D., New Paltz, N.Y.

Thanks to Dr. Kurek’s many years of excellence and abilities I was able to keep most of my natural teeth until the age of 92, giving me a very enjoyable and useful life. When I needed treatment to replace some of my missing teeth Dr. Kurek used all of is skills and experience to give me new teeth. I am now able to resume speaking to school groups and others about my wartime experiences as a resistance fighter during World War II and I am enjoying life again. I really have something to smile about now and have Dr. Kurek and his staff at The Center for Advanced Dentistry to thank for it. With much gratitude. ~ Phil Rosner, New Paltz, N.Y.
