Dr Aseriel is a general dentist (DDS). When a case calls for a specialist, treatment is carried out with qualified specialists who treat patients at the clinic.
An English-speaking dentist in Jerusalem
Dr Aseriel speaks English, Hebrew and French. In practice, this means English-speaking patients can:
- ask questions and hear the diagnosis and treatment options explained in English;
- receive a written treatment plan and a detailed written estimate before treatment starts;
- get detailed receipts that they can submit to their insurer when requesting reimbursement (coverage depends on the policy, so check with your insurer before treatment);
- book by phone or through the online contact form, in English.
Approach to care
The approach Dr Aseriel describes to his patients rests on three principles:
- Keep natural teeth when possible: before suggesting an extraction or a denture, the first question is whether the tooth can be saved, for example with root canal treatment.
- Explain before treating: the diagnosis and the available options are presented so the patient can choose between them.
- Put it in writing: at the end of the consultation, the patient receives a treatment plan and an itemized written estimate.
The right treatment is always decided after an examination, based on each patient's situation.
