WOW! I am so glad that I came across Caress Dental here on Yelp. This has truly been such a…read moreblessing. After going to a much larger dental establishment which felt more like grabbing a number at the deli counter and waiting for my number to be called than an actual dentist office it was such a breath of fresh air to step foot in Dr. Lima's office. Everyone is so nice, from the staff at the front desk to the hygienists to Dr. Lima himself, I truly feel like I have found my Dentist here in PVD. I needed a deep cleaning which would involve four different visits... They accommodated my schedule and got me in for back to back visits all completed within 2 weeks. It's not often you can say that you look forward to your next cleaning but I truly do! Clean, quick, efficient and so friendly!

Do not go here! I went a few times for cleanings years back -2005 and was satisfied . After…read moretaking x-rays the dentist said I had 3 cavities. One of which was under an existing filling. He drilled out the filling and put a new one in. My face was numb for over a week. I called and he said this was normal. I've had fillings before and I've never been numb for more than 8 hrs or so. He scheduled me to return to have the remaining 2 cavities filled. After my terrible experience I went to Dr. Darby in East Providence who was awesome. They did a complete x-ray and determined that I did not have any cavities! Caress was going to drill and fill 2 teeth that didn't even have cavities! I've been going to Dr. Darby ever since and those 2 teeth are still fine. To add to my bad experience, Caress Dental said I never paid them $50 and put me into collections in 2007. Two years after I had my filling. I was never made aware of this since I had moved. I just discovered this after applying for a loan. Stay away from this place!

I went to Dr. Barr when I moved to Providence many years ago because he was close to home and work,…read moreand just stayed because I never had a reason to leave. and everyone was friendly and competent. Over the years I came to appreciate that reliability, and Dr. Barr was always a great professional. I should have written a five-star review a long time ago, not that the office would have needed it. The practice was sold recently to someone called Katherine Burton, who I've never seen. I have seen one of the other Dentists there, who is young and eager and seems knowledgeable. I do find the bedside manner not quite filling Dr. Barr's shoes, although I suppose that's something that comes with time. Other things have changed, too: the front desk staff, who I always liked, and I've had to trundle out to the other office in North Prov a few times because they couldn't reschedule me on South Main. None of which is a deal-killer, and I guess if I walked in the door today I wouldn't think much of it, but, I don't know, it's just the way my trust in the practice has been lowered just a bit that feels uncomfortable, somehow.

I was scared of dentists for most of my life. When I finally found Dr. Phelan @ Exquisite Smiles, I…read morecouldn't have been happier. ALL the staff go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable. Procedures are explained very thoroughly, which alleviates a great deal of anxiety. Before any work is done, they go over your record, asking if there have been any changes to your health, current medications, etc. They're always asking "Are you okay?" or "Do you need anything?" or just stop when you signal to ask a question or take a breather. They never "dismiss" you and listen very carefully to anything you need to convey. (That's a HUGE plus in my book!) Compassion & quality time are first and foremost. Their finance department makes all the charges understandable and will set up the best possible payment plan for you, if that is what you need. If I could give TEN stars I would!

I paid a huge price before I could get out of there! Lifelong injuries, pain and more medical issues and bills. Deceptive and experts at CYA. ---------Incompetent, insincere and haughty office "manager," Jenn, has serious issues, lies and does not care about patient health. Insults customers. Shocking how she gets away with it and shows no remorse. A fraud. -------DISHONEST, HARMFUL and DEFICIENT business/medical practices. Dental work always results in more physical problems and cost. Poor communication and explanation of procedures, risks and follow-up care. Always a new dental assistant who lacks competency. Office frequently over-charges and regularly makes last minute (even the day of) appointment changes, then, falsely shifts blame to the customer. Perform procedures w/o customer's prior knowledge of cost. Lie about cost. Complete disregard for how their incompetency and errors very negatively impact the patient. -------FAKE nice. Manipulative. NOT TRUSTWORTHY. Never take accountability or apologize for wrong-doings and excessive "mistakes." No empathy. Always trying to cover their 'you know what.' Practices like this should be reported to appropriate agencies and even sued. UNCONSCIONABLE.

Prior to becoming a patient of Dr. Heller's I thought I was going to have to live with jaw pain for the rest of my life. Fortunately for me, Dr. Heller's willingness to get to the root of the issue and persistence in doing so have me pain-free for over 7 years now. Not only is he so incredibly kind and patient, but you can tell that he also truly cares about his patients. He always takes the time at the beginning and end of each appointment to check in, and he listens so intently with a genuine willingness to help solve any issues that come up. I think it's worth mentioning that his staff matches his energy, they always greet me with a warm smile and friendly conversation which is refreshing. It's very clear they enjoy what they do, and working with Dr. Heller! The office itself is absolutely impeccable. Somehow Dr. Heller and his team have created a space that is both clean and bright as well as warm and welcoming. Every time I come in for an appointment I am impressed with just how great (and clean!) the office is. Dr. Heller is an absolutely wonderful dentist and I am SO glad to have found him when I did.

My coworker recommended me to dr Heller as he had been her and her mother's dentist for years. In the beginning he was so friendly and seemed to want to know all my life story. And he said that I needed to have tons of dental work done for my own good even though they were not giving me any problem. He touched every corner of my teeth. He removed all the previously treated filling and replaced it with new fillings. The teeth felt sharp and it hurt for a long time after the procedure. He wanted to sell me very expensive mouth guard. Cash money of almost $800. After some appointment mishaps, he was very angry with me. Said a lot of inappropriate and personal things to me while he had his sharp dental instruments in his hand and me in the chair, "are you gonna buy the dental guard now or your gonna continue to procrastinate?" Don't go to this guy. He will fix what's not broken to take your money. And he will turn on you when he realize you are not the best cash cow in his spa like decor all so nice dental office.

I hardly had a wait, and Jane at the front desk made the new patient signup easy, and Marilyn cleaned my teeth thoroughly but gently, despite not having had my teeth cleaned in two years. Dr Ganim inspected my teeth, gave me some dental advice, the reasoning behind it, and what other dentists might tell me. I appreciated that he told me what was going on and why other dentists might say something different than his opinion. It made me feel like the decision was in my hands ultimately. Unlike any other dentist I've been to, Dr. Ganim checked my entire throat and mouth for other possible problems (like cancer). You could also tell that Dr. Ganim treats each patient like a close friend. Overall, easy and thorough cleaning and exam! Would recommend as a local dentist.
