“Dr Mandel’s office was wonderful. I had my first visit today and I feel completely confident in her skills and approach to my care. She was extremely thorough and explained the reason for everything she was doing. I was given a plan for next steps when I checked out, and a clear picture of my future care. I will most definitely be back and look forward to her taking care of my teeth for years to come. ”

Dr Mandel is simply an amazing dentist. She’s new to me, but I just couldn’t be happier that I chose her practice. She’s exceptional in dentistry while also compassionate and gentle handed. Her staff are pleasant and make you feel very comfortable. I recommend her without hesitation… and I’m a nervous dental patient!

Dr. Mandel and her staff are incredible. Their care, patience, and expertise is like nothing I have seen with a dentist's office before. This is truly one of the best practices and I am writing all of this after just one visit. They impressed me from the very first visit.

Dana is capable, has a lovely personality and is very professional. She makes sure you've been numbed enough before she starts! I travel a long distance by car and ferry in order to see her and she always tries to do as much as she can in one visit so I don't have to travel so much. She is worth the long trip and I recommend her highly to anyone!

Dr. Dana is the best dentist I've ever met. She is punctual, professional, and genuinely cares for her patients. She always remembers what's going on in my life and is always able to make me feel calm and relaxed while sitting in her chair. I recommend Dr. Dana Mandel to anyone, especially anyone who may have anxiety related to dental work. She is the best!!!! Her secretary is also very friendly and accommodating. I would never go anywhere else!

Our family has been seeing Doctor Mandel for several years. After every visit we are impressed by her professionalism, the accuracy of her diagnoses, and her careful technique to minimize discomfort. On top of that, she is friendly with her patients, but in a business-like way that respects the schedules of all of her patients that are in the office at the same time. (Not like a chatty dentist I once went to that talked recipes with a patient while I sat in an examination chair for nearly an hour). I would recommend Dana in a heartbeat.
June 13, 2016Bob D.Verified patient
My visits have been absolutely fantastic! It's hard to believe I am actually saying that because I am so afraid of the dentists. But Dr. Mandel is the kindest and most calming doctor I have ever been to. She has a way about her that takes your fears away! And her staff is just as kind & sweet! I actually look forward to going to the dentist. And my teeth look beautiful!!
