Fantastic services! Everyone was professional, efficient, and kind. As a kid, I hated the dentist and dreaded appointments, but this place was an absolute delight and I’m really bummed I don’t get to chat with the friendly receptionist until I see her again in 6 months for my next cleaning.

The staff here is excellent. My visit was friendly and easy, even though I found I needed several fillings. Despite this news, I felt at ease and comfortable. The staff is thorough and excels at cleaning, examination, and procedure.

Verified patient
Everyone here is SO nice - even down to the receptionist, who is a total sweetheart. The doctor and nurses make your comfort priority #1. If you are uncomfortable with anything, just let them know, and they will stop to let you take a break. Best dentist I have ever seen. Don't go anywhere else.
Verified patient
Not the best. But very nice people
I made an appointment for a new patient visit on a Friday at 11:40am about a week or so prior to the actual appointment date. I received a call from the receptionist about some insurance details, and she had asked if I would be interested in coming in on Saturday instead. I told her that I had already taken off work and would prefer to stick with Friday if possible, to which she said no problem. She was very nice and very friendly throughout my experience at this office. I arrived for my appointment and was told it would be just a few minutes past my scheduled appointment time as they were short-handed due to an assistant being out of the office because their little brother was going to prom that day. After about 10 minutes or so (not a long wait at all) I was taken back to meet with the dentist. He came in and I explained that I had a few broken teeth and a few cavities and would need some work done. The doctor looked at my teeth with the standard metal pick and said he could see some of the issues I mentioned. He then turned the tool around so that the handle was in my mouth and knocked against rather hard against what he identified as a cavity and asked "Does that hurt?" I actually jumped because it did indeed hurt, and I was taken aback by him knocking my tooth so hard. After that he said that he was sorry but that one of his assistants was out for the day and that he wasn't able to do anything else and that I would have to make an appointment to come back. He asked if I was able to come in the next day instead, to which I explained that I couldn't, which is why I took the day off from work and made the appointment for today. He apologized and again stated that they were understaffed but that I should make an appointment to come back to fix several teeth. He said that the next appointment wouldn't take "more than an hour" to pull out all of my wisdom teeth that had grown in, or to remove a tooth and replace with an implant. After that, he said he appreciated my understanding and escorted me from the exam room. Needless to say, I cancelled my "follow-up" appointment and do not plan to return here. I was originally encouraged by the positive reviews I found for this dentist, and maybe some people have had a great experience here, but I certainly did not. There is no excuse for scheduling an appointment for a time when there is "not enough staff" to actually see a patient. I wasted one of the few vacation days I have for this appointment for MAYBE 5 minutes with the actual doctor before being escorted out - especially when the excuse is that the assistant was out because of a family member going to prom. Even with that aside, I was not happy with the way the doctor knocked his exam tool against what he perceived to be a cavity - a tooth that would obviously hurt if you slam a metal handle on it. I would not recommend this doctor.
The entire staff was courteous and kind. I felt welcomed and well cared for. I've had a crown that has been causing me problems and the dentist clearly explained my options and helped me get it recemented right away. A great experience!
Verified patient
This was my MOST favorite experience from any dentist I've been to. Dr. Solanki is a very educated man who was genuine and direct with how he approaches the problem. Definitely enjoyed how honest and open he was about how the procedure was going to go and what I should expect. His thoroughness gained so much respect from me as I pride myself on being upfront about things in general with people. Definitely a place I'd recommend EVERYONE to go to for a check-up and to serious work done. It is hard to come by upfront individuals within these medical professions nowadays but Dr. Solanki and his associates are definitely cut from very expensive cloth. Come to think about it, they are an invaluable asset to the medical community especially on the dental side.

Verified patient
Highly recommended for anyone who is fearful about going to the dentist. I had a wonderful appointment as a new patient from start to finish. The staff was extremely kind and welcoming. I hadn't been to the dentist in 3 years, lived with general sensitivity in a couple places and dentist Solanki was very careful and gentle! Didn't cause me any pain and had a great cleaning. I was happy to schedule my next visit.
