About
West Side Family Dental Group is an established family dental practice located in the heart of the Upper West Side of Manhattan, serving the community for over 40 years. The practice has built a reputation as a comprehensive, full-service dental provider dedicated to delivering exceptional care to patients of all ages, from young children to seniors. With a mission centered on listening to patients and taking care of their unique needs, the practice strives to build lasting relationships that reflect core values of service, integrity, and clinical excellence. The philosophy of 'When you're here, you're family' encapsulates the patient-centered approach that defines the practice's culture and patient experience.
The practice distinguishes itself through its multi-disciplinary team of six experienced dentists, each specializing in different areas of dentistry. This collaborative model allows the practice to offer comprehensive in-house services rather than referring patients elsewhere for specialized care. The team includes specialists in pediatric dentistry, adult and cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, periodontics, implants, and oral surgery, ensuring that patients can receive coordinated, integrated care from a trusted group of professionals.
One of the key strengths of West Side Family Dental Group is its commitment to specialized care across all age groups and treatment modalities. The practice recognizes that different patients have different needs—children require a gentle, understanding approach; adults may seek cosmetic enhancements alongside restorative care; and patients with special needs require tailored treatment plans. By maintaining specialists in each of these areas, the practice ensures that every patient receives expert-level care appropriate to their specific situation.
The clinical team includes Dr. Rebecca Goldman, DDS, a Board-Certified Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry who completed a 3-year post-graduate residency in Advanced Periodontics and Dental Implants at New York University's College of Dentistry. Her expertise in treating complex cases, gum disease, implant placement, and full mouth rehabilitation brings world-class training to the practice. Dr. Robert From, DDS, is a born-and-bred New Yorker with over 35 years of experience as a general and cosmetic dentist, having owned his own practice and worked at several high-end practices throughout the city. Dr. Amanda Nebel, DDS, specializes in adult and cosmetic dentistry, bringing her own expertise to the team. Additional doctors on staff include specialists in pediatric dentistry and general practice, supported by experienced hygienists and a dedicated support team.
The practice's commitment to patient care extends beyond clinical excellence to creating a welcoming, comfortable environment. The team understands that dental anxiety is common and works to create a stress-free experience for all patients. The practice emphasizes open communication, taking time to explain treatments and ensure patients feel comfortable with their care plans. This patient-first approach has earned the practice positive reviews from families who appreciate the genuine, caring nature of the entire team.
Beyond direct patient care, West Side Family Dental Group demonstrates a commitment to the broader community and the dental profession. The practice values clinical excellence and ethical standards, with team members who have trained at prestigious institutions including Columbia University, NYU College of Dentistry, and Mount Sinai Hospital. This commitment to continuing education and professional development ensures that the practice remains at the forefront of modern dental care and treatment techniques.
The practice's longevity—over 40 years of service in the Upper West Side—speaks to its reliability, trustworthiness, and ability to adapt to changing patient needs and advances in dental technology. For families and individuals seeking comprehensive dental care from a team of specialists who genuinely care about their patients' oral health and overall well-being, West Side Family Dental Group represents a trusted partner in achieving and maintaining optimal dental health.
