The dentist and his staff were exceptional and a lot of dread I once had for dentists was alleviated by this visit. I would absolutely recommend this dentistry practice.
February 2, 2026Christopher B.Verified patient
Dr Sean was very attentive, great communicator and personable. I made an appointment for two services 1) take a look at my crown and 2) cleaning. I didn’t feel rushed, I got a dental kit in the end am everyone was very friendly. Dr Sean also provided information that I needed to make a decision that benefits my dental health and gave me a referral. I will definitely return to his office. I can trust they have the best interest towards their patients.

I would 100000% recommend. I felt seen and appreciated! They were so nice and made me want to bring all of my friends and family!
July 10, 2025Abigail P.Verified patient
It was important for me to find a doctor who accepted my medical plan and not have to pay out of pocket. Dr. Gonzalez was excellent. She took her time to make sure I understood everything about my treatment and what would be the next step. All of the staff was very welcoming and made me feel very relaxed. I would highly recommend this office to anyone who is looking for a new dentist in the Delta Dental DC 37 health plan. I will be returning next week for my next treatment.

They took great care of me. My dental anxiety went away instantly with the friendly team at this office! I'd been putting off going to the dentist for 6 years because my last dentist would get hysterical any time I had a cavity or anything wrong with my teeth or gums.
Will definitely be going back for my routine dental checkups/ any future procedures I may need.
