Great doctor
July 8, 2024Sidhant S.Verified patient
Everything went well and efficiently; the hygienist Virginia was very nice and after she took care of cleaning my teeth, it felt great. Virginia took into consideration my requests to add extra numbing gel before starting to work on my sensitive gums, and the entire process was pain free!
May 22, 2022Angela D.Verified patient
I set the appoint based on the reviews for my mother, who is in assisted living. I could not have been more impressed with the team at the desk and Dr. Lokesh. So professional, smart and caring. An amazing experience and one I would highly recommend.
April 4, 2022Ken P.Verified patient
Love Dr. Rao and everyone in the office! Friendliest staff and hygienists. J used to dread going to the dentist but this office makes it so easy. It feels like visiting friends every time I come.
October 26, 2021Alexa W.Verified patient
Dr. Manish Rao, DDS listened to me. He did a through visual inspection in my mouth. The grooves and stains that worried me are not concerns for me at all. His brother, Dr. Lokesh Rao, DDS got back to me immediately through texting.
April 14, 2021Gail B.Verified patient
Dr. Rao and his Team are caring and very professional. Dr. Rao is extremely thorough in explaining procedure and follow up. Great bedside manner and sense of humor! It is very important to say that Dr. Rao is honest and follows through on his word to personally call and/or text you genuinely concerned about his patient, YOU! I already began to recommend him to my friends.
March 15, 2020Eulogia D.Verified patient
Very Professional doctor and staff . The wait in the office is very little 10 to 15 mins the most. I hate needles that’s why it takes such a long time to go to the dentist, but Dr Rao gives great injections you don’t feel a thing and never had a dentist massage your gums after the shot. Terrific office so glad I found him. Beautiful bedside manners.
February 18, 2020Ladonna H.Verified patient
This is the best dentist in my 62 years, he is wonderful, explain everything to you and make sure you understand his bedside manner is no joke he is the best I just told him he was the best doctor that gives needles, Didn’t feel a thing his office is clean efficient his workers are the best they truly care about your well-being I would recommend this doctor to anyone who needs dental work.
February 13, 2020Ladonna H.Verified patient

October 24, 2019Nancy S.Verified patient
My experience with past dentist have been horrible to the point where I’d rather let my teeth fall out of my mouth and then came Dr. Rao the hands of an Angel. I highly recommend him to anyone who has had a negative experience with the dentist or is afraid of the dentist
August 20, 2019Alan V.Verified patient

Jahmeisha E.Verified patient
I can not speak highly enough of my awesome dentist!
Great “chair side manner”! Dr. Rao explains what he is doing and why. He is a perfectionist who stands by all his cosmetic dental work and if anything is less than 100% perfect ... he will continue to see me until I am 100% happy :-). This dental office is extremely clean and all staff are extremely professional and accommodating.
I have been a patient in this office for over 18 years now!
August 1, 2018Fenella M.Verified patient
Dr Rao explained was the proverbial "consummate professional".
He explained every part of the procedure and answered all of my questions. He was especially careful to ensure that I felt no pain whatsoever during my visit and tailored his approach to suit my specific case. Best of all, the dentist chair was large and well-padded...really comfortable. I was so relaxed, I almost dozed off. My visit was so great, I have asked my company to add his name to our "employee referral list".
June 13, 2018Louis A.Verified patient
Dr. Rao & his staff are very courteous. I visited Dr.Rao as my right bottom jaw was bothering me a lot. After a careful examination and couple of X-rays he determined that the bottom tooth was decayed a lot and needed his removal. He performed the tooth removal procedure with no pain then and there after my pain disappeared. Thanks to Dr. Rao and his associate.
June 12, 2018Bharat G.Verified patient
I have a huge fear of the dentist. This was the first procedure I have had done in years. Dr, Rao was so comforting explaining everything to me in a very calming manor. What I built up in my mind to be a very painful experience was the opposite! The procedure was done with little to no pain.
Dr. Rao is truly a professional who made me feel very comfortable. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
June 1, 2018Keith Z.Verified patient
Dr Rao is the best! he's patient, kind and gentle. He always asks if anything hurts or if anything is uncomfortable while he works on you. I have been seeing Dr. Rao for some time now and I would highly recommend him to anyone!
May 8, 2018Jaclyn M.Verified patient
Dr Rao was timely, welcoming knowledgeable and professional. He cheerfully has responses to my many questions and provided clear and understandable answers. I am absolutely satisfied with his care and treatment. He has always been interested in my well being and comfortable while undergoing procedures.

Right person right place.
January 26, 2018Manisha B.Verified patient
They were amazing. I'm deathly afraid of the dentist and have been since I was a small child. This was the 1st dentist experience I have ever walked out happy. I highly recommend!!
December 15, 2017Melanie B.Verified patient
Dr. Rao is kind, courteous and professional at every appointment. His staff is friendly and made sure I was as comfortable as possible. Today, I had my teeth cleaned. After inspection, I was found to have two cavities. There was room in the schedule for me to have the cavities filled on the same day. There was no pain and Dr. Rao was constantly checking up on me during the procedure. The fillings were perfectly sized and I have no complaints. Overall, it was a very pleasant visit.
September 25, 2017John A.Verified patient
Dr. Rao .... He is simply THE BEST!!! I have ben a patient of Dr. Rao's for a few years now and have been a patient at this dental office for over 17 years.
Highly professional demeanor .... very personable ... Dr. Rao communicates regarding precisely what he is doing during dental procedures. I find him extremely accommodating ... he always makes me feel comfortable and at ease. Dr. Rao can even give a painless or very close to painless injection ...
I give my dentist 10 stars!!!
July 12, 2017Fenella M.Verified patient
Absolutely the BEST DENTIST EVER!!!!!
There is no health care professional that I can recommend as highly as Dr. Rao!!!!
He can even give you a shot of Novacaine without you feeling a thing!!!
Extremely knowledgeable, highly professional, best "chairside manner" I have ever experienced .... he explains everything he is doing while he works ..... while continuing to check in with you that you are doing fine!!!
Dr. Rao is the ultimate perfectionist when it comes to routine and cosmetic dentistry.
As a bonus, he also has a very pleasant and calming personality...
If you see Dr. Rao .... your expectations will be much higher and you will never want to see another dentist!
June 8, 2017Fenella MVerified patient
Dr Rao was excellent. He accommodated me even though I was late. Was very professional but with great bedside manners. And explained everything he did. Highly recommend!
May 8, 2017Nan Z.Verified patient
He explains everything to you before he does anything and makes sure your comfortable with any procedure or work your getting done. I definitely can say the dentist isn't my favorite place, it's a bit scary but I was happy walking out the office. And the staff was very nice, they squeezed me in because I was in a lot of pain. Highly recommend this place.
