Gregory J Conte, DMD

I can’t begin to tell you how much I was DREADING this gum surgery. I’d heard many war stories from friends and relatives about the pain and suffering associated with having skin taken from the roof of the mouth. Dr. Conte did a new procedure moving the from below the tooth, added collagen, did some stitching and 24 hours later I was at the de Young museum enjoying the Oscar de la Renta show. This is amazing. I just ice it and take ibuprofen — that’s it. Some bruising (as he told me to expect) on my face but no pain. Dr. Conte called to check in the next morning. He is SO NICE and talented. I’m grateful I took care of this and I won’t hesitate to have Dr. Conte help me again in the future.

Dr Conte is great! Professional and very cordial. I’ve been here for some extreme procedures, and he is very very good. Pain management is superior.

Going to the endodentist because you fell down an escalator and your tooth got lodged in your gum for two months, is just about one of the worst things to deal with!
Dr. Conte rescued me from a stormy mess of insurance problems and was the first out of four professionals I had seen, to ask that I get photos of my bone taken before properly evaluating me. This was very reassuring. because he wanted to look at the whole picture before determining how to proceed! This is what i call, a real professional!
*Not only did he ask me to get these x-​rays taken but he did not charge me for the first consult because in his eyes he did not properly evaluate me without having the bone x-​rays! This is what i call fair. Where do you see this in 2013?!
After this, i was convinced and comfortable moving forward with him. I fought with insurance to make it happen because i truly believe he cares about his patients.
Dr Conte did a great job in preparing me for the first operation. The paperwork I received on how to get ready was clear and what i liked was that he did preemptive medicine by prescribing antibiotics to take two days prior to the operation as well as a mild painkiller one hour before procedure.
The day i came in for the operation, he was on time, ready, alert and both him and the dental assistant took good care of me.
After removing the tooth, I was clearly explained how the next coming days would be and how my body could react to the operation, and therefore I knew what to expect in case i had swelling or bruising. I had minor swelling and that was it. I also was impressed that he did not resort to prescribing crazy vicodin firsthand and that there were more mild options before that.
Dr. Conte called me personally, both the day of procedure and the following day to check on me. Again much appreciated. Who does this in 2013 with their patients?
Dr. Conte is what i call a REAL professional: fair, trustworthy, caring, and clearly does an excellent job in his field! I trust that the implant he will do for me, will be great.
I highly recommend Dr. Conte; he deserves an A++
If all doctors were as caring, i would go all the time!

Always the best professional service. Anne is great always has a good word (or two). Staff is super helpful.
Have been going there for years and will continue. Thanks Dr. Schiller and Dr. Conte.

He seems like a nice guy, too bad his staff is doing him a dis-​service. Poor Dr. Conte’s practice (Staff) lack respect and the inability to listen. No smiles, no hellos. Anne, his book keeper, would not reason for billing which was too high for the services rendered. They also claimed a bill was denied by insurance, proceeded to bill me, until I explained the bill payment is pending per insurance. When asked to speak with Dr. Conte to plead my case and make him aware of his office staff antics I was never able to get past the gatekeeper: Anne. Best to stick with the 450 Sutter crowd, the only reason I went to West Portal was to support the local business near my house: Oh Well. NYC more and more each day. Needless to say, I will warn my neighbors in this area about my experience.

I had implant surgery done by Dr. Conte. He is very experienced and knowledgeable. His staff is professional and pleasant. The procedure was expertly done: fast and surprisingly painless. He and his staff take great care to make sure you are comfortable with everything before any procedure. They are also very open and up front about the cost of everything.

I went in in 2003 for a minor oral procedure. His kind and thorough work is hard not to like! I will most certainly be going in for my implant and wisdom teeth surgery!

I went to Dr. Conte after less-​than-​wonderful experiences with several others, and found him to be courteous, highly skilled and efficient. Some years later, my implant is still fine. I alternate regular cleanings between his office and that of my general dentist, Richard Leeds. The patient has to do the daily work, but having excellent, attentive professionals like Dr. Conte and Dr. Leeds keeps me confident that everything possible is being done to maintain a high level of oral health.

Had an implant done in 2004. That implant is great and am signed up for another one. I would recommend Dr. Conte to everyone, and I have!

three failed implants, much time and money down the drain… so painful and expensive
