Puts patients first. Was concerned after a visit to another dental office, and although I'm not in the dental profession, the explanations and work suggested didn't seem on point. A few calls on my part, and found Dr. Matthews recommended with praise via a friend in the profession. He explained his findings exceptionally well, and put together a treatment plan that made sense. Highest recommendation.

Unbelievably skilled dentist! I find his approach and overall knowledge incomparable along with the skills to design the best smile you can have.
Verified patient
He was extremely friendly and knowledgable.
He exceeded my expectations! I have a lot of difficulty going to dentist related to a childhood experience. He was respectful and understanding. His exam was complete and he communicated his recommendations for treatment. Best of all he used appropriate anesthesia and I had no pain during the visit or after! Amazing. I found the Dentist for my family. I am so thankful after a 7 year search.
Dr. Matthews was very kind and patient with my daughter. He spoke to her not down or at her. I would definitely recommend him!
Verified patient
Very professional, calming and cheerful experience at this office. I would definitely recommend this dentist and staff to family and friends.
Dr. Matthews is without doubt the best dentist I’ve ever had. His brilliance is demonstrated in his attention to detail which was beyond my expectation. Dr. Matthews is approachable, honest, and has a degree of compassion & emotional intelligence that result in a comfortable dental experience. He works hard in educating patients on treatment options and is very conscious of making sure that you're making the best economical decision when it comes to getting dental work done. His staff is friendly and treats patients like family. The bottom line is Dr. Matthews & staff are truly a rare find! Dr. Matthews & team exemplify all the characteristics of an exceptional dentist. His high ethical standards and genuine desire to make a difference are evident in all aspects of his practice. Nothing compares – head and shoulders a top notch individual, dentist, and practice. I intend to refer many patients.

Verified patient
My entire family's experience was great! I was skeptical initially - being that I hadn't been to the dentist in over 2-3yrs. following a botched Root Canal in East Hanover NJ, but Dr. Matthews was absolutely awesome! From the moment I checked in, I was impressed by the very clean, modern, and inviting office. Dr. Matthews identified all my areas of improvement and suggested a plan of action in a way that no other dentist had ever before.  This attention to detail, along with his reassurance that my teeth and gums could be fixed, gave me so much relief.  I highly recommend this place for the cleanliness, expertise and overall good attitude from all those working there! Pilar at the front desk went above and beyond was able to give me a plan of action w/ majority of the cost being covered by the insurance.  It was quick and painless, and I feel so much better now! I definitely plan on going back to Attentive Dental Care, they really take care of their patients. (GREAT w/ Toddlers!!!)
I am very Satisfied, it is imperative to have a dentist who cares about Preventative Care over just caring for you when there is an issue: Great Dentist: I live in Union County so its worth rhe drive to Morris County
Verified patient
As always, Dr. Karey was amazing. Very thoughtful and explained every option in great detail and does not try and push unnecessary work to try and make a buck! I highly recommend Dr. Karey Matthews!
Verified patient
I hate needles, I hate pain and I hate going to the dentist. However, what I like about this doctor is his knowledge, skill and bedside manner. I have never felt so safe and so comfortable, and confident with any other doctor. I don't mind going to see him.
