    I made an appointment here to get a 2nd opinion on some work I needed done. I felt 100% heard and…read moreseen by the staff and dentist here. I made an appointment with Martin Dentistry because of so many great Yelp reviews. Even though it's a 35 minute drive out of the way for me, I would 100% come again for future cleanings and dental needs.

    Very "memorable" experience…read more I booked my appointment months in advance and confirmed when prompted. Somehow, the appointment was changed to another date after my confirmation -- with no call, no explanation, and no notice. Impressive system. I drove nearly two hours in snowy weather and arrived on time, only to be told my appointment no longer existed that day. When I calmly showed proof and tried to explain, the staff's response was eye-rolling, visible impatience, and zero effort to help resolve an error that was not mine. I was left feeling dismissed, unwelcome, and frankly uncomfortable. I can't say why I was treated that way, but it's hard not to wonder whether appearance or background played a role when basic courtesy and professionalism disappear so quickly. When I asked for their names to document the incident, they refused and told me to leave. If accountability, communication, and respectful treatment matter to you, I'd suggest confirming things multiple times -- and maybe still prepare for surprises.

    I saw Dr. Nam for a biannual cleaning, followed by 2 cavities being filled. Originally, my…read moreappointment was scheduled 1 month out, but they called following a cancellation and it was able to be moved up two weeks, score! I absolutely appreciated the phone call that someone canceled. Dr. Nam was extremely personable, with a relaxed but educational demeanor. As someone who isn't a fan of the density, I appreciated the offering of music or Netflix as a distraction method from the procedure. One thing that was different than my previous dentist is that Dr. Nam didn't do my actual filling. She administered the numbing agents and then another person came in, placed and set the filling, and then Dr. Nam checked this. In my other experiences, the dentist always did the full procedure, so this struck me as slightly odd. Other than that, office is clean, staff is friendly, and both appointments took me nearly on time (within a 5-10 minute window) which I think is pretty good!

    Lack of communication set my appointment two months prior asked if they accept my insurance at the…read moretime I made the appointment and I was told yes! Now it's the day before my appointment two months later to be argued with stating that no one told me that they accept my insurance and I was Miscommunicated! Also stated that they don't verify insurances early that they check the day of or the day before! People have to take off work to make appointments and they have no type of sympathy at all!!

    Every time I have come into Dr. Arive's office, I have felt respected, heard, and understood. Every…read morestaff member makes it a priority to make your time at the office the best experience possible. I have always hated going to the dentist, but since I have been connected with Dr. Arive, that has gone away. He is always gentle, thoughtful, and kind in every verbal exchange and while he is working on my teeth. He really should be the standard for all dentists - an expert in his field and just genuinely a nice provider. Would highly recommend!

    Dr Arive bought the practice of my previous dentist who retired and who was my dentist for decades…read more I made several appointments with Dr Arive but was very disappointed with my experiences at this office. I encountered a number of temporary office staff who were definitely lacking in skill and dedication. No one in the office ever introduced themselves or wore a name tag so It was difficult to determine who they were and what their role was in the office. For some reason even though I have dental insurance, very little of the work done was covered even though this had not been the case with my previous dentist. Patients were charged a whopping $20 PPE charge per visit on top of already very expensive dental charges. Dr Arive was probably a satisfactory dentist but the office was run so poorly I sought dental care elsewhere.
