wonderful doctor! I've been his patient for 28 years. He now practices in Oshawa and I live in Hamilton. Still, I travel 2 hours one way to see him because I don't want any other dentist.

Dr. Novokolsky is the BEST DENTIST EVER!!
I was extremely nervous about getting my 4 teeth removed due to orthodontic reasons, I walked in very nervously and there was such a kind lady at the front who just made the room a happy room! Dr. Novokolsky saw I was nervous and walked me threw the whole process making sure I had all the time I needed and that I was ok! All the staff there are just the kindest humans ever! I recommend Dr. Novokolsky to everyone! it was such a pleasant experience! I have nothing bad to say!

I normally do not leave reviews on any site, as I am usually much too busy with work to do so. However after seeing Dr.Novokolsky I was so impressed and grateful for his services, I felt the need to share my experience.

Unfortunately due to genetics I have always struggled with my teeth and I have a major grinding issue, which does not help my situation. My grinding is so bad that I would even grind through my mouth guards.

Through the years my teeth continued to break, which made eating very difficult. At this point I started to see several different Dentists to see what could be done to repair my teeth. Each Dentist gave me the same advice, which was that I needed implants and veneers. Not only would this be an extremely lengthy procedure it would also be very expensive and would cost approximately $40,000 to $80,000 depending on the dentist.

I was referred to Dr.Novokolsky by a friend who insisted that Dr. Novokolsky was a genuine and awesome dentist.

I immediately booked an appointment and went to see him. Upon the completion of my examination he told me that implants and or caps wouldn’t necessarily be ideal for me. This was mainly because of my grinding issues and there would be a chance that I could grind them away. I was in shock that the other dentists I saw never took that into consideration. Instead Dr. Novokolsky decided to use special materials to fill and rebuild my teeth. Not only did it work it also saved me thousands of dollars.

I feel like a new man, I can eat again without any trouble and smile with confidence.

I will be forever grateful to Dr. Novokolsky and his wonderful staff.

Over 3 years ago a nurse told me "you wont find a better Dentist, than Dr. Novokolsky, that Glazier Dental, is an excellent practice". And she was right ! I went straight there and was immediately impressed with Tammy. I felt welcomed, and booked my appointment on the spot. Little did I know, that Tammy is actually a multi-tasking, receptionist extraordinaire ! I'm not sure of her job description, but after three + years as a patient, I believe this happy, pleasant professional, is also the heart of Glazier Dental. If you meet her, you'll know exactly what I mean. This practice is a happy place, where patients feel at ease, and it all starts with this fine receptionist.

In Renata, I have found an extraordinary Dental Hygienist, who also is committed to excellent patient care. She is thorough, gentle, and informative. Not only will she tell me just how it is, but she also took the time to explain a few options for future visits. Renata isn't giving up on me ! Have I mentioned that I didn't present with a Hollywood smile? You could accurately call me dentally challenged, and I'm self conscious about it, too. lol. But, Renata put me at ease, with her positive and encouraging outlook, and I feel a sense of acceptance, with her as my Hygienist. She'd be a fantastic Therapist, but I hope she doesn't pursue that avenue. Glazier Dental is unlike any dental practice in my experience. I've lived in four cities and towns, and honestly, just accepted that having dental work, of any kind, would inevitably lead to more pain. Renata didn't hurt me !

In the past, I have had facial pain, jaw pain, and debilitating migraines after dental work. In three + years of dental care from Dr. Novokolsky, I have not experienced facial pain, jaw pain, or migraines. Not even once !!! I recommend this phenomenal Dentist to everyone I know, and I am so impressed, and grateful for his help, that I feel compelled to recommend him to the many people I don't know. Just between you and me, I think this internet is really going to catch on one day. I am absolutely astonished by Dr. Novokolsky's ability to provide high quality, and even complex dental care, that doesn't leave me in more pain than I presented with. He is GENTLE, considerate and is efficient without rushing. Dr. Novokolsky has the refined skills of someone who has mastered his work, and he delivers this with a precision that I have not experienced before. He has done extensive work on fillings and repairs, and, the teeth he has crafted are works of art. My bite is much improved, better than what natured had provided, and I can't thank him enough ! I am also extremely impressed with his Dental Assistant, Stephanie, whose skills are a perfect match to compliment his. She anticipates the help I need from her, before I even recognize it. I feel completely relaxed with her, knowing she's prepared and professional. it's more than thank you for making sure I don't asphyxiate ! But I did thank her for that once.

Together they are entirely focused on their work, and achieve this so smoothly, but they never forget that there is a patient, a real person in the chair. Oh, and that chair is memory foam ! When you receive the care you need, from the right people, everything just falls into place, it can just seem effortless. That's paradoxical, of course, because of the years of work, knowledge and experience it takes to accomplish dedicated patient care on this level. Speaking of dedication, Dr. Novokolsky and everyone at Glazier Dental, have consistently been available for their patients throughout the pandemic. I feel especially reassured with the measures they've implemented since the pandemic began, to protect their patients and staff, including air purifiers, ppe, a plexiglass shield, not to mention Tammy taking aim with the infrared thermometer ( she's good at that :) I am also relieved to know Dr. Novokolsky has had his first vaccine, because I want him to have a long, healthy and happy life, of course, but also because I could not possibly go to another dentist. It's true what my nurse said, You won't find a better dentist. I feel very fortunate that I'm able to go to a dentist, even more so to be Dr. Novokolsky's patient. He simply chooses not to cause me pain. He is the best, and I so appreciate the many ways he is considerate throughout an appointment. It has been a complete paradigm shift from what I have known before. I now have a level of comfort and trust that is new, and profound respect for this phenomenal dentist and his staff at Glazier Dental. This is what Dentistry is meant to be.

I was most impressed with the staff and the office! I had a difficult extraction that was was taken care of with as little trouble as humanly possible. Sent home with my tooth lol but it was cleaned and sealed for my safety. I was informed greatly of procedures and actions. A very welcome change to have met such a good dentist.

I had a crown and a bridge put in. From the beginning till the end of the process Dr. Novokolsky was fantastic. The bridge was an old bridge and I have had many dentists fail to put it back such that it would stay on for at least a week. He succeeded in that department and was very quick as well. The crown was new and I felt no pain throughout the procedure. He was efficient gentle and very careful i.e. he didn't rush. I also let him make the decision regarding coloring of the crown (he was spot on). Overall, I felt he went above and beyond what was required and at no time did I feel he was rushed. His supporting team including the receptionist and the dental assistant were all polite and very professional. I would definitely recommend Dr. novokolsky
