“Dr. Griffin is very straight forward with treatment options and extra costs (For fluoride, which isn't usually covered after a certain age) and was very kind for a first time visit. I will definitely be coming back for future visits. ”

“Dr. Griffin was phenomenal! He walked me through x-rays, cleaning, a wire cutting, 2 fillings and a fluoride treatment. He did a great job and was honorable when it came to filling the teeth that needed a cavity vs. filling/charging for tons of decalcifications. Again, very qualified and super kind. The air purifiers are like nothing I’ve ever seen before! ”

Very professional and prompt service. Dr Griffin and his staff have always done a great job of making feel as comfortable as you can in a dentists chair and to make sure that everything that will be done or needs to be done is thoroughly explained.

Very efficient, friendly, clean environment.
December 15, 2014Sarvesh S.Verified patient
Dr. Griffin was able to see me on very short notice, and was nothing but welcoming and accommodating. I went in for a routine check up and found out I needed to get two fillings and have a wisdom tooth removed - Dr. Griffin and his staff talked me through the process and it couldn't have been a smoother visit. They were all very attentive to my needs and my mouth has healed beautifully. Thank you to everyone at Northalsted Dental Spa!

Dr. Griffin is very friendly and is very professional. His staff is very courteous and was always concerned about my comfort and well being. I have unfortunately moved out of the area and hope that I can find a new dentist practice as outstanding as Dr. Griffin's. I would definitely highly recommend Dr. Griffin!!!

I was extremely impressed by both Dr. Griffin and his staff who stayed late on a Friday to patiently answer all my questions. I would highly recommend this dentist!

Considering I was in there for an emergency visit and he diagnosed the problem and made me feel better within under 20 minutes I have to say the visit went better than dental visits should go.
August 24, 2012Sarah P.Verified patient

Did really good job taking a major x-rays and cleaning my teeth really deep after awhile of time not see dentist for a couple of years and took time to explain what I needed with x-rays on wear and tear on some teeth and Dentist did the work right away especially with the fillings on the spot. Will be back for my next routine cleaning/check up in the fall.
