My husband goes to see Dr Cakuli and he made me go see her. I was terrified at first due to my past experience with other dentists. But I am so happy I went. Dr. Cakuli is absolutely the best. She is very good at what she does. I will go to her from now on. Her staff is so nice and welcoming.

Dr. Cakuli is the best dentist! She and her staff care about their patients, and are just nice people. Dr. Cakuli has relieved my pain a couple of times in the past year and I am thankful for that. She is on the conservative end of treating and does not push services, which helps my finances. I have been going to her for over a year and don't see that changing in the future.

She is a breath of fresh air. Does not push unnecessary dental work. The dental hygienist is also top-notch. I have already referred my friends and family members to her. I have found my new lifelong dentist.
February 9, 2019Jeanette R.Verified patient
I started seeing Dr. Cakuli because my dentist officially retired. While I wish my dentist well, I am so happy to have found Dr. Cakuli! She is so nice and takes her time to explain everything she is doing. She makes you feel comfortable right away. The office staff is amazing as well. I'm so glad I found this office right in my own neighborhood :)
January 31, 2019Shannon G.Verified patient
She was wonderful
Caring and perfect bedside manner considering going to the dentist is one of my least favorite things to do. I highly recommend her!
January 9, 2019Tracy D.Verified patient
She is a great dentist. I was wary about trying a new dentist, but I now have one! I had a crown with a cavity under it and a space between the crowned tooth next to it. Lots of stuff getting stuck there. Dr. Cakuli fit me in to take care of my toothache and I now have a neat double temp crown over both teeth.
I barely felt anything and Dr. Cakuli tries to make the process very easy on the patient. Her prices are also very reasonable.
November 20, 2018Deena P.Verified patient
She is the best, pleasant and great touch

Doctor Cakuli is simply my favorite dentist. It was my second visit with her after waiting a whole year to return and she was so good with me. The procedure went smoothly and I didn’t feel no pain at all. She is an amazing doctor and makes my experiences stress and worry free. Thanks so much!!

great experience as always
July 18, 2018Diana C.Verified patient
I've had two visits so far and have no complaints. The wait times are non existent if you scheduled an appointment. The staff is all very professional and make it easy to get back into the swing of things as far as regular checkups go. It had been years since my last visit before I was recommended to this practice. Needless to say, I don't like the dentist much (in general) however this place really got rid of that anxiety. I am now looking forward to my visits!
June 28, 2018Ronald M.Verified patient

May 9, 2018Kay B.Verified patient
Dr Cakuli has given me faith once again that there are doctors who truly care for their patients. After having a horrible experience with my previous dentist, she proved to be the opposite! Professional, caring, and accommodating to my needs. I recommend her highly. I found a keeper at last!

Dr. Eklea Cakuli and her staff treated me with such great care. I went in so nervous, afraid and I almost started crying, but they made me felt welcomed and Dr. Cakuli made sure I felt the least pain because my tooth was really bad. She and her assistant were very thorough and patient with the multiple ex rays I needed to get done. Definitely the best Dentist’s visit I’ve ever had.
Thank you :) and I definitely look forward to my next appointment.
