This was hands down the best experience I could have hoped for! I have avoided the dentist for years due to being terrified ad unfortunately got to the point of having some major pain. Lucky I was able to get an appointment right away and after meeting Dr. Soffer and his assistant Alissa all the worries I had about the dentist melted away. I had a wisdom tooth extracted without any pain whatsoever and felt at ease the entire time. I will be returning for my follow up and future visits!

He did a great job. I came in for the first time with a toothache. I had been neglecting my teeth so I was prepared for the worst. He told me it required a root canal. All I knew about root canals was they were supposed to be painful. This wasn’t. I was out in under an hour and able to get to work only 15 minutes late. The numbness has worn off and there is only a little discomfort which should go away in a day or two. He does do that thing where he talks to you with his hands in your mouth. Haven’t met a dentist who doesn’t.

Thank you so much for your effort in making my experience and teeth incredible. I have gone to “the best dentist in the area” before, but these dentists top anyone I’ve had in the past. So kind, personable, and skilled. I am lucky to have just joined this practice and plan to stay indefinitely. I had a cavity that was questionable and both docs came in to look at it and make sure it was worth filling. They took their time and took into consideration if it was worth the time/money instead of (like other docs) just filling it for money. I appreciate such honest people! Best dentist in the city 11/10 recommend.

Great experience! Pain free! Awesome Dentist!
Verified patient
I've had 2 appointments with Dr. Soffer's office so far: a cleaning/consultation to see what needed work, and a follow up to begin taking care of some problem areas. Both began only a couple minutes after the official start time, which was a nice surprise (I expected a longer wait). Further, in both cases someone checked in with me right at the start time to let me know I'd be up shortly. All of the staff were very friendly which went a long way toward putting me at ease. As someone who hadn't visited the dentist in 10 years, and had built up a pretty scary idea of what was waiting for me, I left both appointments feeling really good about my situation. Colleen did my first day cleaning and x-rays, and really could not have been sweeter. She explained everything as she went, and just had a wonderful bedside manner overall. Dr. Soffer introduced himself toward the end of this appointment and went over a couple things that needed attention, complete with hand drawn pictures to illustrate. Ken has a great, lightheartedness about him and really succeeded in putting me at ease as we talked through future treatments. For my second appointment, Dr. Soffer rebuilt an old cavity and placed a temporary crown on an old root canal while the permanent crown is being created at the lab. There isn't much you can do while you're in the chair other than look at the ceiling, but Ken does a great job of checking in periodically to make sure you're comfortable and all is well. 90 minutes and all done. It's amazing how far dental technology has come in 10 years. I know I shouldn't have waited so long to make it back to the dentist, but I am glad the waiting caused me to find Dr. Soffer's practice. It feels like a lie to even suggest this, but I'm actually looking forward to my next appointment to continue getting my teeth back in great shape.
Doc is the best. Cares about his patients way beyond what you would expect. Always feel that I'm treated great at his office by the whole staff

Verified patient
Dr. Soffer is excellent! He can do it all. Whatever your dental needs, he can take care of it. His work is painless. He makes sure that you're comfortable and takes the time to check "how you are doing" as he works. I highly recommend Dr. Soffer for the entire family. He has been my dentist for approximately 20 years and I have presented many challenges to his professional expertise. He has been able to conquer them all. I call him "the miracle worker."
Verified patient
Phenomenal doctor and staff! They go above and beyond to accommodate you and make sure your comfortable. State of the art dentistry. Didn't have to wait for a crown and deal with a temporary. Everything done at once right there in their office! Couldn't ask for a better dentist or a more positive experience. A++

Upon arriving the staff is always warm and welcoming. Dr Soffer is professional and attentive to my dental needs. I have been a trusted patient for many years and will continue to do so in the future!

Dr. Soffer is extremely professional, explaining everyting. He is also very patient. I am very happy with the services I have received at his office.
Verified patient
Very comfortable environment. ... Flexible with my schedule. I'm originally (a year ago) from some distance away. Checked around. Did my homework in terms of prices. They knew I was paying out of my own pocket .. without insurance and their price was very competitive. I had an old post and crown removed and replaced. Minor bone reconstruction ... (nearly 30 year old work) Good sense of humor. There was talk of experimenting on me till I reminded the I was actually sitting right there and could hear them. Overall very good experience. They're my new dentist.
Verified patient
There was no wait time, Dr. Soffer went beyond to complete a section of my mouth. The big thing, think about no pain Dr. Soffer is an artist. He made me look like a movie star and I'M 72.
Verified patient
Dr Soffer's been our dentist for years. He's a reassuring confident and friendly manner, his staff is great. He's been able to fix teeth we thought were hopeless. Highly Recommended. This time, what we thought was a broken tooth was a broken old old filling; fixed painlessly in 40 minutes.
Verified patient

Verified patient
Dr. Soffer is amazing. I am probably one of the worst dental patients ever...I'm terrified of the dentist and am not the easiest to work on. Everyone at the office is so nice and understanding and they are the only dentist office I am not scared to go to. If you're a coward or just want a dentist who is caring and great at what he does this is the office you want to go to!
I always get excellent care.
