Patient Testimonials
Philip A. Novack, Periodontics in North York
Patient Review
Dr. Novack diagnosed my extensive gum disease that no other dental professional identified over twenty-five years ago. His thorough explanations, expert skills, and sincere interest in my well-being helped cushion the shock of this discovery - and having to undergo several gum surgeries. My gums were rehabilitated enough for me to undergo 4 years of braces - which wouldn't have been possible without his treatment. He collaborates with my regular dental team so that my treatment plans are seamlessly co-ordinated, sending them regular detailed reports of my oral health. He provides a direct, honest approach to treatment options and will suggest performing multiple procedures - if necessary - at once, to reduce cost and discomfort. Dr. Novack calls me at home post-treatment - even while on vacation, and is accessible 24/7 for patient issues. Recently , Dr. Novack installed two sets of implants. This complex job meant several surgeries, including bone grafts. I now have a great set of gums and teeth (some real, some artificial). Dr. Sari Novack conveniently works in the same office as her father. Patients get the added bonus of having a periodontist and general practitioner - who share the same philosophy of providing top-notch patient care - under the same roof. I highly recommend Dr. Phliip Novack and Dr. Sari Novack for not only periodontal/implant services, but also for general oral care services.

Patient Review
I've been a long term patient of Dr Novack for many years and not only has he looked after all of the issues I've had over the years he's become a trusted friend. He is a consummate professional yet his warm, charm and genuine care has you feeling like you're friend rather than a patient.

Patient Review
I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Philip Novack, Dr. Sari Novack and their lovely dental assistant Kelly this past September. They are the friendliest, most wonderful staff I have ever encountered in a clinical setting! Dr. Novack did my implant surgery and I am so thankful to have found him (I was referred by his daughter, Dr. Sari Novack, who is also a wonderful dentist). He took so much time to explain all of my options and plans for treatment in such a way that made me have complete trust in him. Dr. Novack stands out from other dentists/oral surgeons I have seen in the past because he is so precise in his measurements and investigative x-rays before the surgery. I also couldn't believe that he calls his patients personally after having a procedure to check in. After my molar extraction, implant placement and uncovering procedures, I was given his personal phone number and asked to call if any issues came up, even invited to come into the office on a Sunday morning just to put my mind at ease. Dr. Novack puts his patients first in a way that you do not often see in the healthcare field, especially dentistry, and I would certainly recommend him and Dr. Sari Novack to anyone in need!

I have seen Dr. Novack for over 10 years now. I was referred to him as the specialist for implants and needed a Periodontist that I could trust. The whole staff is super friendly and makes you feel comfortable during your whole visit! Very clean office and nicely organised. I definitely recommend this place to my family and friends. Dr. Novack is friendly, professional and he is very fussy about obtaining terrific results. The doctor’s care has always been exceptional.

I've been a patient with Dr Novack close to 1 year. And I could honestly say that Dr . Novack is thorough, explains procedures in detail, even using video presentations. He takes no "short cuts" and looks out for his patients dental health. Djobe Oct 31/17
