This is was by far the best experience for a dentist that my daughter has ever had! We are going back next week for further treatment. My daughter was so comfortable in the office and all of the staff were so great!
Verified patient
Genuinely was scared for my 2 year old. But absolutely couldn't have asked for a better dentist + assistant. They were so gentle and cautious with how they cared for my daughter during her teeth examination and cleaning. The Dentist explained everything thoroughly and parent friendly. She showed us all the many tools we can utilize for our daughters oral cavity to support with dental hygiene.
Verified patient
Such a great experience!! Every single staff member was so kind and welcoming. My son does NOT do well with Dr visits in general and when we saw DDS Evalina for my son’s first appointment I was so impressed. From her supportiveness, to clear communication about what was happening, to making my son feel comfortable and include him in ‘helping her’ it really made my heart happy to see him so comfortable. 10/10 recommend bringing your children here!!

Dr. Josefsson is the best. She's very gentle and kind with my daughter and is very knowledgeable and explains what she's doing as she goes which makes me and my wife feel very comfortable. I recommend Dr. Josefsson to all parents.

My experience was good from the minute I walked in to the minute I left. I love that the staff is so friendly and the doctor has good bed side manner. I took my one year old for her first time check up and of course she she was scared but the assistant was so friendly and reinsuring that it made her feel comfortable. If your looking for a good dentist for your child give this office a try, trust you won’t regret it.

She truly cares for her patients and takes the time to listen to their concerns, making them feel comfortable throughout their visit. Her speed and efficiency are matched only by her genuine kindness, making her a top choice for anyone seeking dental services.

Dr Josefsson Is truly one of a kind pediatric dentist. I have taken my kids to several through out the years. She has such a calming and fun personality that my kids are actually excited for their dental appointments. Thank you for giving us such great experience.
Verified patient
Dr. Josefsson is hands down the best pediatric dentist my kids have seen. Her calm and gentle demeanor is exactly what my kids needed to calm their anxiety of a dental appointment. I appreciate how knowledgeable she was when explaining conditions to me and explaining them in a way the children can also be involved in understanding their own dental concerns. Great provider! Highly recommend!

Verified patient
Unfortunately the provider like many others these days, tried to overcharge based on the fixed schedule of the insurance copay fees. When this was pointed out their agent became combative and came up with bizarre explanations for the mistakes. Hard to have trust when we start with dishonesty. There were also deliberate attempts to isolate the patient under the guise of HIPAA when clearly spouses and partners can be involved in the conversation when explicitly authorized by the patient. Their agent assigned to create the bill/collect payment was really aggressive and was quick to become defensive or outright hostile when asked clarifying questions. The procedures recommended were also excessive and the top based on actual needs, creating doubt that the doctor was acting in the patients best interest rather than increasing the net billed to insurance. Overall really negative experience how they handled everything. I would never recommend them to anyone.
This was a great experience for me. I have had a few root canals before but this was my first here. It was legitimately painless, the doctor was great. They made a health plan with me to get my dental health on track and I appreciated their insight. The whole team was kind and extremely thorough.
Verified patient
I have a lot of dentist trauma, but I still finally went. the doctor and assistants really made me feel better throughout the appointment. now to get the work done.

The doctor
Verified patient
I haven't been to the dentist in YEARS. Last time I was, I was drilled on without novicane and needed to be sedated. So I came in VERY anxious. I was good while they took rads, explained all my oral issues, and insurance coverage. Then came the novicane and I started to panic a little. Half my tongue was numb, they leaned me back in the chair, and started drilling. Looking up at the ceiling brought all the old memories back. In other words panic attack. The doctor immediately stopped drilling and asked if I was alright? Was I in any pain? I blubbered incoherently and he asked if I was okay to continue. I said I was and he did, but from then on he kept reminding me to breathe, which helped. His assistant though, was the best. She kept me updated, handed me tissues, helped me out of the chair and to the bathroom where I could wash up, bc panic attacks are messy. Once I regained my calm she got me some water and helped me floss.
Verified patient
This was my first visit and I'm very impressed. Very professional doctor. He was very thorough. I will definitely keep coming back!
Verified patient
I have been terrified of dentis my whole life. But this doctor helped me a lot. He was very patient with me. I had a very good experience. I would definitely come back in 6 months!
