PATIENT REVIEWS

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Staff is professional, personable and knowledgeable. Zoe made me feel as if I were a long time patient the minute I walked into the door and Mo helped ease my nerves throughout the entire visit. Dr. Volchonok is not only well educated, but he is able to explain everything so it is easily understood. I was able to book a same day appointment for a cleaning, X-rays, and a check up. Two days later I was back for my final wisdom tooth extraction. Dr. Volchonok personally called the evening after my oral surgery to follow up and he was easily reached throughout my recovery. After my follow up appointment I was actually sad to leave (which is a major accomplishment since I hate going to the dentist)! I actually am looking forward to my next cleaning in September.

Dr. Volchonok is the absolute BEST!! Besides the magical work he does with his magical hands, he really took time to answer my million questions before surgeries, and always does thorough follow-ups to make sure everything is in great shape and complete comfortable for me. Dr. Volchonok and everyone in his team is amazingly warm, fun, and caring. I truly appreciate all the support they gave me, the laughter we share, and look forward to every of my visit!

I have an ongoing patient/Dr. relationship with Dr. Volchonok do to my very complicated history. He is “the real deal”. I have two implants that were placed by another dentist and the screw and abutment came out of one over the weekend. I was frantic, but knew whatever it was Dr. Volchonok would fix it. Even if it was going to need to be replaced it would be done correctly as he did my other two. Luckily for me, even working with implants he wasn’t familiar with as they probably aren’t the greatest, he was able to fix it and make it work. Dr. Volchonok has a calming reassuring “bedside manner”. I would highly recommend him and I have sat in A LOT of dentists, orthodontists, oral surgeons and endodontist’s chairs. He’s the “real deal

It’s rare to find a doctor of the caliber of Dr Volchonok. He has great bedside manner, he listened attentively and offered clear solutions and treatment options during my visit. His office followed great protocols which made me feel safe during this COVID pandemic times. His staff was friendly, efficient and caring. I am always nervous when going to dental professionals but Dr Volchonok and his staff made me feel comfortable and at ease. I highly recommend him and his practice.

Dr. Volchonok is one of a kind. Before I found him I had experienced a pretty traumatic failed extraction and bone graft from a previous implant specialist. It was difficult and anxiety provoking knowing I had to go through the procedure again, but I really couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This man is extremely informative, patient with questions and is an extraordinarily talented, gentle surgeon. He and his entire staff are so genuine. I’m really thankful I found him and highly recommend him.

Dr. V is always approachable and friendly. He explains the procedure and what to expect. Which is very important to me. I want to know all possibilities so I’m not blindsided. My surgery took about 3 hours but it felt like half the time. He’s accommodating to any musical choice or audio book you want to listen to while the surgery is in process, which for me just puts you more at ease. I’d highly recommend Dr. Volchonok.

This was my first visit with Dr Volchonok and his staff and they were wonderful! Started with Karen at the front who handled my intake, then Gloria who sat with me to get all my information. Finally Dr Volchonok who I thought did a great job at asking me questions about my habits and explaining to me what his initial thoughts are regarding my issues. After he performed additional tests, he sat down and explained my options for treatment. The actual procedure will be next month so I’ll update this review but for initial consultation, I had a great experience with Dr Volchonok and his team.

Dentist Volchonok is very knowledgeable and professional. I’ve been with him for almost a year for my periodontal cleaning and maintenance. He always answers my questions and explains everything to me. He really cares patient. He even call me to check my status after I got my wisdom teeth extraction. I highly recommend!

Dr. Volchonok and his staff are incredibly professional, great communicators, and lovely people. I felt really taken care of by them when I went in for my procedure. I had a good understanding of the what’s and why’s since they were explained to me beforehand. I would definitely recommend them.

Dr. Volchonok is an exceptional Perio and an extremely skilled surgeon. He offers more than just amazing healthcare – he gives his patients comfort, peace of mind, and concierge-level dental care. After he saved my tooth (and holiday season) by deftly treating me for an extremely painful dental emergency in Dec 2019, I’m convinced he’s one of the best healthcare providers I’ve come across. It’s easy to schedule an appt and the staff is so great at following up. He doesn’t keep you waiting. He respects your time and is generous with his. He educates patients on procedures and options and will explain procedures so anyone can understand what is going to happen. His offices are modern, clean, comforting and he is equipped with the latest dental tech that made it possible for him to spot an infection in my back molar (that he wasn’t even treating at the time!) I also really appreciate his referral process. He takes the extra time to discuss with the other doctor before he recommends a course of action and presents options to his patients. He is kind, empathetic and his skills and ability in his specialty certainly live up to the double ivy league degrees on the wall. Thank you AV Perio! 

Dr Volchonok and his entire team (especially Mo) are amazing. I had a procedure done recently and they made me feel as comfortable as possible. During the consultation, Dr Volchonok explained everything to me in detail. I was a bit nervous before the procedure but Mo was super nice, told me exactly what to expect and made me feel at ease. Dr Volchonok is a complete professional and clearly an expert at what he does, he even called later in the day to check in on me and make sure everything was fine. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

From the intake call to the billing, my visit to Dr. V’s office was seamless. The staff is friendly and efficient, and Dr. V’s evaluation and next steps were thorough and prudent. Dr. V helped me to understand the various directions and implications of my treatment plan in a clear and honest manner. He also is a team player and communicates important details in real time with Dr. Zadick, another great dental practitioner and my dentist in Greenwich, CT.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who dreads going to the dentist, it’s not always a “fun” or stress free situation. It actually had been years since I’ve been to one because I’ve had such unpleasant experiences, but eventually due to gum recession, I had to go back. I chose to go to AV Periodontics because it was really close to my job (walking distance) and has a pretty decent rating online. All I have to say is I made the Right choice. I actually enjoyed my visit, which I still until now can’t believe. Dr. Alex Volchonok and his staff not only treat their patients with the utmost care and respect, but really put you at ease in the chair with such considerate, professional behavior. When he speaks to you about the procedure, a weight is lifted and replaced with confidence that “Yes, this person knows exactly what I need and will perform it to the best of his ability” and I was finally able to breathe. I really do not see myself going to anyone else and actually look forward to my next visit. If you are like me and really don’t enjoy going to the dentist, I suggest you try this place. I promise you, you will not be disappointed.

For the last 20+ years, I have been loosing, not only bone in my jaw but many teeth as well. I was in pain for years, I had to constantly think about what I could and could not eat. Over the years, I had been to periodontist after periodontist in an attempt to manage the pain and decay. Finally, I met the doctor who would over the next two years resolve my issues. Dr. Alex Volchonok was the first doctor that I went to who made me feel confident that there was a solution to my endless problems. It was a huge decision to remove my remaining teeth and do a full mouth of implants. I consulted several other periodontists prior to selecting Dr. V. None of the doctors that I spoke to, who I might add had been doing these procedures longer than Dr. V, but after speaking to them I decided to go with Dr. V. The main reason for choosing him was that he made me feel like he would do anything that I needed to make me feel comfortable and that is exactly what happened! It was not an easy process, but he was always available and was in constant contact with me during the recovery process and beyond. In short, if I had to go through this process again I would choose Dr. Volchonok all over again. I will absolutely recommend him to any of my family or friends who may have periodontal problems. Thank you Dr. Volchonok for all you have done for me.

Dr. Volchonok is clearly an expert in his field! I recently had a procedure done with him and he made the entire experience very pleasant. He even followed up with me later that day to make sure I was comfortable. He clearly cares a great deal about his patients’ well-being. I would recommend his services to all of my friends and family in the New York area. Thanks Dr. V!

I was referred to AV Periodontics by No Limits Dental. I had a really nice experience with Dr. Volchonok, who is super friendly and explained everything well. Facility is modern and very clean. Staff are caring and considerate. I can feel the improvements in my mouth and am very thankful for this practice’s expertise. Highly recommended!

Dr. Volchonok was brilliant. I had to have two wisdom teeth extracted. To this day I still don’t understand how he was able to extract one of them without my realizing it. So, technically speaking, Dr. Volchonok is working with magic. But what I found to be the most important aspects to my visit were his calm and affable demeanor, as well as the even tempered manner in which he talked me through the procedure. His patient care is top notch. I highly recommend !

Dr. Volchonok is so incredibly talented, from start to finish my implant surgery was absolutely painless. His assistant Glori is wonderful, so personable and kind. There isn’t one thing that I wished could of been done differently. I need to also mention Deirdre who schedules and runs the office is lovely! I highly recommend Dr. Alex Volchonok, you will be in amazing hands.

Absolutely phenomenal practice. Dr. Volchonok is the definition of a true leader and master of his craft. His “chair side” manner is beyond belief. He is attentive, kind, informative and provides a wealth of knowledge and information without being overwhelming or uncomfortable. Highly recommend him and his entire team.

I’ve been under the care of Dr. Volchonok for over a year now and I can say without a doubt that he is one of the most qualified, competent, and personable dental professionals out there. From the get go, he expertly diagnosed my specific issues, making me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I’m extremely satisfied with the level of care I’ve received from him and the entire staff. Marie, Mo, and Glory were a great bunch, with a delightful sense of humor to boot. This made coming to the office a great pleasure amidst the otherwise stressful experience of receiving major orthodontic/periodontal work. There literally aren’t enough stars on the feedback scale to accurately represent my level of satisfaction!

It was only my first appointment but EVERYONE in the office was so friendly and welcoming. I’m going through a very tough time so the empathy they showed was wonderful. The dr. is extremely knowledgeable and very thorough. I immediately felt better than when I walked in.

Dr Volchonok is an excellent dental professional. He is caring, has great bedside manner and communicated clearly with me about treatment options and procedures. His office and staff were welcoming, friendly and efficient. I am always nervous when going to the dentist but Dr Volchonok and his staff made me feel comfortable and at ease. His office followed great protocols to make patients feel safe during COVID pandemic times. I highly recommend him.

My experience under Dr. Volchonok’s care was nothing short of outstanding! He was very thorough in his diagnose and then gently and efficiently treated my periodontal problem. A professional, kind, gentle, and brilliant periodontist. The assistant’s and staff at AV Periodontics are very nice, personable, and efficient as well. I highly recommend Dr. Volchonok and AV Periodontics.

Anyone searching for the “right Dr.”, Dr. Volchonok is it! I can’t say enough about his knowledge, skills and bedside manner. I have a lot of wrongs he is making right with my complicated case. I have been sitting in Dentist, oral surgeons, orthodontists and endodontist chairs my whole life. He is “the real deal”

Dr. Volchonok and his entire staff are very professional and makes sure that all COVID protocols are adhered to so that the patient is confident and comfortable when they come to the office for an appointment. Dan D.

Dr. Volchonok and his staff were great! I’ve been through a few surgeries for a difficult implant and was referred to Dr. Volchonok for some additional work to reinforce and save the implant. I was very nervous but I felt very comfortable and no pain during the procedure. Would highly recommend Dr. Volchonok!

Quick and easy post-op follow up. My implant is healing nicely and procedure went as described. He’s an incredibly skilled surgeon and that was evident in my super quick recovery. Thank you Dr Volchonok and team for making the entire process as pain-free and comfortable as possible!

Dr. Volchonok is the best there is. Not only is he an excellent Periodontist that keeps up with the most advanced techniques and technologies, he is a kind person that genuinely cares for his patients. I have a complex case and was honestly terrified of going to the dentist before I met him. Going to see him is like going to see a friend – I know I am in great hands getting the best care I could ask for. 

Dr. Volchonok is hands down the best periodontist I’ve ever seen. He’s incredibly thorough, personable, and highly skilled. He took the time to answer all my questions and provided information in a way that was easily understood. Dr. Volchonok is very warm, respectful, and professional. I came to the appointment with a lot of anxiety given my presenting problem, but I was immediately put at ease by Dr. Volchonok and his amazing staff. Stellar physician and staff, I recommend them highly.

For years I had difficulties getting dental work done Because of a severe gagging issues. But at dr VOLCHONOK’s office they put me at ease and were very patient with me.so much so that I’m getting back in there to get some major dental work done very soon. Again thank you dr VOLCHONOK for a great job.

I’ve been under the care of Dr. Volchonok for over a year now and I can say without a doubt that he is one of the most qualified, competent, and personable dental professionals out there. From the get go, he expertly diagnosed my specific issues, making me feel comfortable throughout the entire process.

This made coming to the office a great pleasure amidst the otherwise stressful experience of receiving major orthodontic/periodontal work. There literally aren’t enough stars on the feedback scale to accurately represent my level of satisfaction!

I’ve had 4 or 5 gum grafts throughout my life. A necessary evil to keep my teeth in my head. I never look forward to getting one. But going to Dr. Volchonok, for my most current graft, my outlook on this procedure has greatly changed for the better. He was delicate during the procedure and the post-surgery recovery has been the easiest I’ve ever had. I’m healing up nice and quickly. I highly recommend Dr. Volchonok.

During my preliminary consultation, Dr. Volchonok took the time to give a very thorough evaluation of my periodontal issues and explained in depth how it affects my overall health. He proceeded to explain in simple terms his proposed treatment plan, patiently answered all my questions, and gave me the opportunity to voice my concerns. I felt that I was actively involved in choosing my treatment. I will give another evaluation after the planned procedure is performed.

This place is the ABSOLUTE BEST! Dr. Volchonok is extraordinarily passionate at his work. I had undergone numerous medical exams and Dr. Volchonok took control of what seemed to be a never ending situation. Plus he uses modern and up to date technology. I can go on and on but this is truly patient care at its absolute best! And his team is amazing. Mary, Glorie, Deidre, Ariel – ALL are extraordinarily helpful and easy to work with. I’d give him 1000 stars if I could!

Mary and Mo made me feel right at home from the very first moment. They are like new friends already. Doctor Volchonok was as friendly as he was professional in explaining with full detail the procedure which I was about to have; he explained everything to me like he believed I might be as intelligent as he. I appreciated that. The doctor even followed up later with a personal phone call. That was a nice touch. I came in as an emergency case expecting to wait alone for a long time, but from the moment I walked in Mo and/or Mary were by my side every moment until I was finished. What a breath of fresh air on an otherwise difficult day! Thank you all!
