I have a fear of the dentist (I know it’s cliche) but I mentioned it and they were very accommodating. Everyone in the office was great from the woman at the front desk, to the hygienist and the dentist. Seriously they made me feel very comfortable. I hadn’t been in many years due to being afraid but after seeing them I will come regularly again.

Everyone at Excel Dentistry was very friendly from the receptionist, to the hygienist, to Dr. Shibko. Care was provided very diligently and both hygienist and dentist explained everything throughout the appointment so I could understand what was going on. Would absolutely recommend this office for anyone looking for excellent dental care!

In for just a annual cleaning. Amanda was pretty cool. Doc went over treatment plan answering any questions I had. Will use again.
October 4, 2023Terrell S.Verified patient
This is my go to dentist because of the truth and honesty of options available for the dental work needed. I feel like I am with a certified of God dentist or I would make this recommendation. Deeply happy with all treatment.
March 8, 2023Carmen H.Verified patient
I find that the Doctor is very attentive to my personal dental needs, and I think his staff is professional,courteous, and friendly. I have been to three dentists in the last 40 years, yet this dental office has been the best in keeping my dental health in great shape!
July 1, 2022Gregory R.Verified patient
I needed an emergency appointment and was contacted to come in earlier. I received care and recommendations. There was an appointment that afternoon for cleaning. My hygienist, Amanda, was very kind, thorough and expert in her field. Dr. Shibko presented options and recommendations regarding treatment! Delightful staff! Thank you all!
April 19, 2022Paula C.Verified patient
I really felt pressured to "Save" a tooth. The cost was high because my insurance was maxed out. The money I spent to do a crown buildup which ended up needing a root canal could have been used to fix other teeth had I just pulled it to begin with.
May 28, 2021Marcella S.Verified patient
Excel Dentistry is the place to go for quality dental care. Iused to hate the dentist but Dr. Shibko and his staff are very comforting and go the extra mile to answer any and all questions you might have. Dr. Shibko is very honest about what services you need and won't sell you a bill of goods just to make a buck. They offer high quality service for very reasonable prices. Highly recommend.
May 25, 2021Gretchen S.Verified patient
Was in from out of town without a local dentist and in a lot of pain. Made an appointment on ZocDoc because I wanted to see someone right away. They contacted me and asked to move the appoint up an hour which I was so happy about. Everything was explained and made sense. I am deferring the major treatment until I'm back home, but I think they will get me through till then.
May 5, 2021Michael G.Verified patient
From the moment I walked in, until the moment I left, I was taken great care of! Front desk, my hygienist, and Dr. Shibko were fantastic. I will be sticking with Excel Dentistry
April 26, 2021Dylan K.Verified patient
From the front desk, to hygienist, to the dentist - you could tell they cared about people. They all listened to me and patiently fielded all my questions. Extremely friendly office! And very intentional with their time. You can tell they run a very efficient business.
January 6, 2021Kylen R.Verified patient
I thought I was being seen by Shibko I was seen by Dr Melissa. She was professional but seemed somewhat green. I am older and prefer a more seasoned dentist. I would like to schedule my next appointment with Shibko if possible.
Again she was great. She explained everything in great detail. Being 50yrs old I have been going to the dentist regularly all my life. I am also a nurse so I don't need things broken down so much. I understand infection and the way a cavity starts and the consequence of root damage. I felt like she was explaining to a child.

Amazing experience! Visiting Minnesota for the holidays and dropped in for a cleaning - feels really safe as they have Covid19 safety practices enforced. The staff is so friendly, helpful, and informative. Normally hate the dentist, but this appointment and experience were a breeze!

It was a great experience! Everyone at Excel is so friendly, professional and knowledgable! They have been amazing every step of the way, from my cleanings to my invisalign treatment. I now have the smile that I have been wanting and I love it! I look forward to my visits and cannot wait to complete my implant.
