The clinical care is the outstanding! Dr. Ziemba is technically skilled, of course, but is also kind and compassionate.

My family dentist of more than thirty years retired and Dr. Lucido was highly recommended to me. Understandably, I was quite apprehensive during my first appointment at Pioneer Valley Dental Arts. Yet...I must admit I was pleasantly surprised. The office was clean, comfortable and cheerful and the staff was polite, helpful and friendly. More importantly, Dr. Lucido was unbelievably knowledgeable and professional. He gave me a comprehensive examination and addressed any of my fears and concerns. Dr. Lucido is clearly a skilled and compassionate dentist. My heartfelt gratitude goes to Dr. Lucido and staff for their excellence in patient care! I am looking forward to my next visit.

As someone who struggles with occasional anxiety when going to the dentist, I can not speak more…read morehighly of how wonderful (and calming) of an experience I had at this office. All of the staff are courteous and kind, but I want to give a special acknowledgment to Dr. Park. She really calmed my nerves, and had such pleasant chair side rapport, that I was able to relax during my dental work. She was great about checking how I was doing, as well as explaining all the steps as she was performing them, relieving any anxious worries I had. I truly appreciate her professionalism and the comfort provided during my visit. I don't plan to see any other dentist in the future! (Fingers crossed I will not need any more dental work)

It's usually the most dreaded experiences one can have aside from maybe a colonoscopy. So why the five start review? Well I have been going to this dentist now for about 5 years. Every single person I have encountered at this establishment is not only kind and courteous but they go above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience. They always try and make me feel comfortable and like I actually matter. It has almost become like going to see an old friend. Of course my friends don't stick their hands in my mouth and cause mild unpleasant pain. But close enough. If your looking for a new family dentist and live in the area give them a shot. I actually don't live anywhere close but drive about an hour because I not only trust them but don't absolutely hate going.

It cost a boatload of money, and a lot of dental work to bring me back to healthy. If you're in the same boat now, bite the bullet and go. You'll thank me later. There is no other dental practice I'd trust with the scope of work they did, and since then, the preventative measures to make it never happen again. I'm just back from another stellar cleaning done by the wonderful Michelle. She's part hygienist, part therapist. It's great to chat with someone, as hard as that may be during a dental procedure, who listens and empathizes with my petty concerns. She is very gentle and attentive to how I'm reacting to whatever is being done. If my feet are squirming, she knows something is bothering me and adjusts. Drs Shawn and Jon are also pleasant during the after cleaning checkup. Dr Shawn was the one who brought my smile back after all those years of neglect. Great job too, it's been many years now and everything is still holding up fine. They may not be the cheapest dentist, but you get what you pay for and I'm still smiling!

Nitrous oxide, blanket, sunglasses, sound eliminating headphones tuned to my favorite Pandora station put me in my Zen place.
