    I went to Dr. Moshman a few years ago for an emergency tooth cap replacement. He was great. No problems since. I have a family dentist in Westchester that I usually go to. He is my cousin, and gives a family discount, and presents to the kids.

    Does anyone else remember Dr. Salvator Altchek? He passed-away around a dozen years ago. His office was on Joralemon Street between Clinton and Henry. He was like a Saint.

    About 20-years ago, when I didn’t have any health insurance and a very bad respiratory infection, he only charged me only $5 for an office visit and he wrote me a prescription for an ancient antibiotic that only cost $9 retail. It worked.

    A few weeks later, my girlfriend went to see him for a breast exam. She got a glowing report, and he even waved the $5 fee!

    My family and I have gone to the Moshman dental office for years. Dr. Stanley Moshman is very conscientious and a great dentist! He always is willing to go the extra mile to really make sure that I understand what my dental procedures entail.

    An added bonus is that he is a photographer and we have had many interesting conversations about his subject matter.

    His staff is friendly, efficient, and always greets their patients with a smile. I highly recommend this office!

    @ Wiley E., I also went to Dr. Altcheck many moons ago. Indeed he was a Saint. I’ll never forget the office in his brownstone too, a throwback from another era.

    As far as dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Philip Klein, DDS at at 86 Pierrepont Street. I don’t think there’s a better dentist in the world!

    MonroeOrange: order a whole pie when you only want a slice or two is your answer? Sorry, I’m not a fat man by any means, nor am I that economically deranged.

  • MonroeOrange

    @knight, actually my answer was, deal with it! They are not clowns as you said, and I will always defend a great nabe institution when someone calls them a name I don’t agree with. Stop going there instead of name calling, is that a better answer?

  • Wiley E.

    M-O, try the medium pie. You need it.

    Ask for the “Marshall McLuhan”.

    Plymouth Church is “a great nabe institution.” Fascati’s is just a business that one man built and his sons are now ruining.

  • MonroeOrange

    Actually Knight…it was two men who built it…they were brothers, one passed and one retired….welcome to the neighborhood Knight…..
