Everyone is very nice and the office is clean and organized! They were flexible with me arriving late and managed to complete the services. Maybe I am spoiled by my last dentist, but it felt very impersonal. A large section of plaque was not removed even though I pointed it out during the cleaning. Multiple fillings we suggested even though I explained I have other health issues causing the problem and do not want to fill for the fifth time until the root cause is resolved. It’s fine if you’re just doing routine stuff. They’re very accommodating and professional. If you have special considerations, I would not recommend based on my experience.

As someone who is usually terrified of the dentist this was my first really positive experience. Great staff, everyone was super friendly!!!

What an amazing first appointment with Dr. Sokoly and his team! Every part of the process was so easy from start to finish. Melissa explained pretty much every part of what she was doing during the cleaning and was upfront and transparent about additional non-insurance-covered costs. Dr. Sokoly has great manner with his patients and was not pushy on any sort of sales or up charges, as other Dentists I have been to have done. I will definitely continue to see Dr. Sokoly and highly recommend his practice!

Hygienist was pleasant to talk to and answered all my questions. Sokoly was upbeat and recommended a good solution for my translucent enamel concerns (sensodyne advanced). First time gift was nice too!

The staff here is extremely friendly, professional, and non judgmental. I appreciated them so much, and if I wasn’t moving, I would continue my dental care with them indefinitely.

I recently had a teeth cleaning and check-up with Dr. Sokoly and it was a fantastic experience. Dr. Sokoly is very skilled and knowledgeable, and made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. The staff at Sokoly Dental are all friendly and professional, and the office itself is clean and modern. I appreciated that Dr. Sokoly took the time to explain what he was doing and answer any questions I had. Overall, I had a great experience at Sokoly Dental and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of dental care.

Office staff were polite and welcoming! Hygienist performing cleaning was friendly, cleaning was thorough but not painful. Dr Sokoly had great bedside manner. Would recommend this office to anyone looking for a great dentist downtown!

I have been going to dentist offices for 50 years. Team Sokoly far exceeded most in friendliness and helpfulness. Shout out to all—Renee, Bonnie and Doc. Melissa, Dential hygienist, went beyond the all of duty in removing stains from a very hard to reach area due to a permanent retainer. She has the patience of Job. Thanks team.

THIS VISIT, AS WELL AS MY OTHER VISITS, WAS EXCELLENT. I'VE BEEN A PATIENT OF DR. SOKOLY (AND HIS FATHER) FOR MORE THAN 40 YEARS. THAT SHOULD SPEAK FOR ITSELF IN TERMS OF MY SATISFACTION WITH THIS PRACTICE.

Excellent all around. Very pleasant, welcoming, caring and concerned with the outcomes. Ready to assist in emergencies as needed.

Office manager Renée hands down is on top of everything. Dr Sokoly’s assistant Bonnie is very knowledgeable, the hygienist, Melissa was very kind and gentle(no crying in the office for sure ??)
And Dr Sokoly himself was soooo kind and such a great listener.
Highly recommended!
