Hi,
I've been meaning to take my 5- and 3-year-olds to the dentist for ages but can't find one that takes our insurance (Gateway). I keep getting great recommendations, and then when I call up no one will take us. I really wouldn't like to pay out of pocket, if it's not necessary. So, if anyone has a dentist she can't say enough good things about, preferably in the South Hills, I'd be happy to try my luck again. Thanks for any help.

Not sure if they take Gateway, but I recommend these folks wholeheartedly - best dental care we've ever had (adult AND pediatric in one office, husband and wife team), and we've lived all over the country. I'll be happy to tell you more if they are able to take your insurance!
Good luck!

I live in Crafton and take my daughter to CCP of Mount Lebanon
and my Dr told me that since we also have Gateway the only Dentist to see is in Mercy Hospital that will take the insurance. I havent looked into it yet,my daughter is only 2 but if you find someone can you respond back to me as well.
Sincerely,
S.
My dentist is wonderful. He has been seeing my boys since they were 2 and 4. They just started out sitting in the chair and having their teeth counted. It made them very comfortable with him. He also has children around 7&5. I like that. He is on Greentree Road near the 7 11. His name is Bryan Fisher. His phone number is ###-###-####. I'm not sure if he takes your insurance, but give him a try.
If you do, let me know what you think.
Good luck.

Hello...Our family sees a dentist named George Hankewycz, DDS. He is located at 988 Josephine Street in East McKeesport. Phone ###-###-####. My 4yo daughter LOVES him! He is great with kids!!! Best of Luck to you!
Why don't you get alist of dentists from Gateway and go from there? Better to get them to ANY dentist than to wait. I take my son to my dentist--you don't necessarily have to take them to a pediatric dentist.
Also, I recently attended my son's Kindergarten orientation and the school nurse said that Allegheny County offers FREE dental services to ALL kids under 18. You might want to check into that as well. I had no idea.
My dentist is wonderful , Dr.Leslie Wahl of Comfort Care Dental. They are on rt. 51 in brentwood area. I drive all the way from Shadyside. They do take some insurances, however they have a wonderful cofort care plan where $155 a year pays for 2 visits, cleanings, xrays and 1/2 off any service needed. Good luck!
