"I had an urgent visit to a new dentist for me, since moving back to PA. I did a Google search near me and located Dr Barsky, who had great reviews. They asked me to come in immediately since I was having a specific issue. I was impressed with their immediate response and the attention that I got. The friendly exam was comforting. Dr Barsky referred me to a specialist for specific attention to an infection that I have and we scheduled a future appointment for my general dental work. I left confident that I have found my new dentist and that I can return to a regular schedule of dental maintenance visits, as I was used to in Boston. Update: I am extremely pleased with Dr Barsky’s office. Personal and Professional! Very gentle dentist! Today’s dental visit with Dr Barsky was not your typical dental appointment. First of all, the office is both quaint and state of the art. Dr. Barsky is a gentle and thorough dentist, who works on one patient at a time. In a world where you’re just a number at most large medical groups, here you’re treated like a real person. Although I was there to get my teeth cleaned, my visit was surprisingly pleasant. What made it more enjoyable was the good conversation and the soothing classical music. Dr Barsky’s office manager is also friendly and professional. Overall, a nice experience! Now who can say that about going to the dentist these days?"

"Dr Barsky is a great dentist. He meticulously cleans your teeth very carefully. He has saved some of my teeth that others have screwed up. I have been going there for years and my son's too. He has given me breaks when I needed it and will be forever in his debt."

"I moved into the area several years ago and went to dentist recommended by my previous dentist. After much expense, she left the practice. That is when I searched for a local dentist and Dr. Barsky's name came up each time. My 1st vist was for a cap that the previous dentist did and he saw me right away even though I'd never been there before. I stayed with him and he replaced it over that month. I then had another come out and he saw me the next day. Today, I finally had my first "official" visit and I have to say I would also recommend him to everyone. The office is very quaint, clean and warm. It is only Dr. Barskey and his all around assistance Casey. Both are warm and welcoming. Dr. Barsky is a single practitioner who takes pride in his craft and does an amazing job. Even does your cleanings himself, have to say it was the best experience ever at a dentist. Very happy!"

" Doctor Howard is the best! I have been a patient of his for over 30 years. He is kind and thorough. The assistants and hygienists are always pleasant and professional. The office is immaculate on the inside and the building itself is very quaint, sitting in the heart of Carversville. You will not be disappointed in the service that Dr. Barksy offers. Second to none."

I had a broken tooth with a pin sticking out of the remaining piece of the broken tooth which was hurting my tongue badly. He was extremely friendly and took care of the problem immediately. Yesterday, I returned to his office to receive a temporary crown for that same tooth. Howard is an excellent dentist that I highly recommend."

“This was my first visit, and it was great! Dr. Barsky did a thorough dental history and a thorough cleaning! I actually left my former dentist office because I didn't feel safe with Covid-19 concerns. I just felt their office was too big with large open areas and too many people moving around. Dr. Barsky's office felt very safe. I was in a room with just the doctor and assistant. The room had special airflow equipment. Safety protocols were followed at all times. I have a new dentist!”
– T Ray H., on November 20, 2020 ★★★★★
”Dr Barsky is a highly experienced and knowledgeable Dentist. And he demonstrates these attributes throughout every visit to his office. His office is clean, comfortable and well maintained. He proficiently utilizes the latest dental technology and materials. His mannerism and workmanship are superior. I highly recommend him as I have to family and friends. Furthemore, when I informed my Endodontist that I had switched to Dr Barsky, he affirmatively commented about Dr Barsky’s qualifications. And that is one of the best references a dentist can get since they see all qualities of dental work!”

“I was Dr. Barsky’s patient for several years but then moved out of state. After a few visits with the NEW dentist, I began to get the feeling that he was recommending unnecessary crowns and fillings, because I was told different treatment plans over several appointments. I really needed an assessment by someone I trusted. I was planning to return for a family reunion after 3 years, and quickly contacted Dr Barsky in hopes that he could see me for an honest evaluation of my dental needs. He graciously set up an appointment for me and gave me his usual thorough and professional exam, including the oral cancer screening (which was not done with new dentist). He did not want me to tell him which teeth were in question until he finished his exam and gave me HIS opinion. I loved that! Not only did he determine that I did not, in fact, need any of the treatment recommended by new dentist, he took a lot of time talking to me about my new state and life there- and recommended I call a periodontist to find a good dentist where I live now. I would have paid anything for the opportunity to be evaluated by Dr. Barsky, my trusted dentist, especially after 3 years! But he hardly charged me for the visit. His parting words were that I had no problems and my dental health was excellent- but that I needed to get started back up on flossing! The way he said it was in such a caring way, that I started back up immediately and have not missed a day since. I think of him every morning now!!! If you need an honest and excellent detail oriented dentist who is genuine and sincere, please make an appointment with Dr. Barsky and realize how lucky you are to live nearby! Thank you Dr. Barsky.”
