My family & I used to go there years ago. I have problems with anesthetics & do not get numb. He refused to believe me & caused me lots of pain. I overheard him commenting about it to his assistant just outside the room. Very unprofessional and almost cruel.
There was a fine layer of dust on the out-of-date equipment- the veterinarian's office for my dog is cleaner than this dental office. The dentist is rude and unprofessional- please don't subject yourself to this poor treatment- there are much better options for dental care in the area. The hygienist and office staff were nice and seemed competent.
Saved my life with a root canal in 2010. Tooth finally failed in 2021. Got an implant in 2022. Would have him do it again if another tooth did this. I remember him giving the block for the tooth extraction and saying “you won’t feel a thing.” And I didn’t. All of the other visits were the same. Great explanations of why, how and what to expect. Solid staff as well. Have had dozens of tooth cleanings and it has always been a good experience (at least it’s as good as something like that can be). Scheduling seems to be state of the art. I get texts before visits and do my forms online. I know a hygienist who works at another office. Told her Dr Snitzer’s name and she said “highly respected by the dental community; and has done tons of outreach to the Saint Louis community.” Lucky to have found this guy.

I have been going to Dr. S since the early 90's and have yet to have a bad experience. Root canal 11/03/2022 (2nd in my life) recalling his first root canal in 1994. He has crowned 4 teeth at once( two front primary upper and lower) and does all work professionally. Everyone has an opinion and I know what kind of quality regardless of oral op. or a cleaning I will receive- say what you may but I wouldn't change dentists for anything. Almost 30 years- that speaks for itself.
Paid out of pocket for a root canal 5 + years ago and the tooth broke today. Went to a new dentist and there is no sign of a root canal being done on this tooth. I know will lose the tooth permanently and have to pay for bone graft and implant.
I've been a patient of Dr. Snitzer since 2005 had 4 root canals 3 on bottom left 1 on top left and 3 implants 2 on top left and 1 on bottom left (#18) shout out to Chris. (Hygienist/Assistant) she worked with me the most
The doctor and his staff are rude and unprofessional. I have observed him yelling at a service provider on the phone and talking down to his staff while sitting is his dental chair. Very unhappy with the overall crown process I had in his office, had to wait 12+ weeks to get permanent crown. Latest fiasco, I confirmed appt by text on Monday evening, and when I called in on way to appt this morning to let them know I was running late, they had dropped me from the schedule for not confirming...
Had a root canal done and promised 5-10 years... a year and a half later went to a new dentist and had to go to a specialist to have it redone. He missed two roots and made the cap too big. Rushes through things and is sloppy and rude to assistants.
The doctor is grouchy, yelling at the staffs all the time, it took forever for you to get an answer of your question about your appointment in their office. 2 examples to share about the doctor: I asked him one time to help reviewing XRay of my braces progress, he said: I can take a look, but...., why do you need to say "but" and no words after "but"?, i have a cavity in one of my teeth, he said he can only see me 2 months later w/o explanation.This clinic ruins your day! Don't go there!!
Dr. Snitzer filled two of my teeth a year ago, and I'm in the process of having the second of the two fillings fixed by a different dentist. And actually, he bumped the adjacent tooth on both fillings, so I've ended up having to get 4 teeth filled to fix the 2 he filled. He berates his poor assistants and made me very uncomfortable in the chair. I do not recommend!
