“When we moved from Cambridge to Troy, New York in 1989, there was never any question in our minds about finding a dentist in New York State. We happily make the three-hour trip to Dr. Birnbaum’s office twice a year because we know we will receive the highest level of care and treatment. Dr. Birnbaum knows the latest techniques, but he always proposes the most practical solutions to any dental problem we have. He and his staff make us feel comfortable all the time. It is a real pleasure to have a dentist in whom we can place our full confidence!”
