Dr, King is really nice and professional. The office is very clean and kid friendly. Downside is that the waiting area is pretty small. He really tries to keep the kids feeling comfortable. He does a Daffy Duck impression which I find so funny. The kids like it. I would recommend him. Only downside is I've come across is a staff member who called me and was rude over the phone. Other than that it's a great place..

They were all professional. They hygienist and other staff were very sweet. Dr. King was pleasant enough but there were a lot of people so he felt rushed to me. I'd go back but I wasn't as impressed as I was expecting.

More about Dr. Michael King, DDS
Comedian and dentist, Mike King, has built his pediatric dental practice in an unusual manner.
He incorporates comedy into his dental office in order to relax the children. Kid’s jokes, and magic tricks are all part of his treatment. His humorous holiday greeting cards are so popular; other dentists and patients collect them. One even sold on eBay for $100!
Dr. Mike’s father, Sid, was owner and MC of “Sid King’s Crazy Horse Bar” in Denver. (It was so famous, Clint Eastwood shot his film “Every Which Way but Loose” there.) With this background, Dr. Mike began entertaining audiences at a young age and has never stopped.
In addition to practicing dentistry, Dr. Mike also enjoys performing. In the comedy club circuit he’s known as “The Fifth Dentist”. You know, “Four out of five dentists recommend sugarless gum”. Well he’s the fifth! He appears weekly at Broadway Comedy Club, New York Comedy Club, and Gotham Comedy Club. He also takes his hilarious stand-up routine on the road, especially to dental conventions. Currently Dr. Mike is working on his one man show, “The Fifth Dentist.”
Mike has managed to balance his love for pediatric dentistry with his love for the entertainment business.
His greatest joy is spending time with his family. He and his lovely wife, Sophie, have a daughter, Annabelle.

Dr. King was great with my 18 month old. The whole staff interacted with him and made us feel welcome. The office is kid friendly, and I will be taking my 4 year old here too.
December 16, 2015Carlo L.Verified patient
Great with my two year old, he wasn't scared at all! The hygienist was nice and the doctor made funny voices and balloons for the children to put them at ease, My son thought this was hilarious. They also explained exactly what they were doing while they were doing it. V helpful, will use again

I am the mother of 3 boys aged 14-11 & have been seeing Dr. King since they were old enough to see a dentist. He is the best! Thorough work and entirely trust worthy. He is, interestingly enough, a former comedic "stand-up" & has a droll, hilarious style. He even has a secret door for "Hobbits" at his entrance door. A New York original!
