The entire staff was very welcoming and friendly, they were able to scan and clean my teeth. As well as informed me of some other things that were happening from prior dental work. They also gave me the referral I needed for my wisdom teeth to be removed, also at a office that accepted my insurance.

All of the staff were extremely nice, friendly and very efficient. I was on time and was shown to the exam room immediately. I was in for a procedure and it was completed most efficiently but with the utmost concern for my comfort. In my life, I've been to a number of dental practices and this is a really good one!

Absolute unprofessionalism! They ruined a healthy tooth and repaired the right one only on the second attempt! Not sure what's right

Friendly and thorough service! I made them aware of my general teeth sensitivity as well as my general anxiety about going to the dentist. The staff were more than supportive of this and offered some great suggestions to be mindful of to improve my overall experience. Would visit again.

The staff was very friendly and very accommodating to my needs. Dhaval Patel saw that I was in a lot of pain, so he gave me the novocaine right away so the pain would go away. He also talked me into saving the tooth. I was in so much pain, I just wanted it pulled. I'm glad I didn't make a rash decision that I would of regretted later because of all the pain I was in.
March 17, 2021Russell M.Verified patient
Dr. Patel is super kind and caring! He really takes the time to address any and every concern you may have. Everything was painless and easy and I’ll definitely be a returning patient!

January 29, 2019Tonika W.Verified patient
You have to see this dentist! He's not some old dude that been in practice for decades cleaning your teeth. He cleaned my teeth, and the process was simple and to the point. What makes this place is the staff, from the moment you walk in you, are greeted with a genuine hello and a friendly smile. If you sign up on ZocDoc, you will not have the paperwork to fill out so arrive about 20 minutes early. You will enjoy his smile, and his staff will make you feel welcome. SE HABLA ESPANOL
