    I had a great experience with Dr. Cho, DDS, and Sarah, the dental hygienist. They are both very friendly, professional, and genuinely care about their patients. The office offers affordable pricing without compromising the quality of care. Sarah was especially outstanding. She took the time to walk me through proper dental and gum care in great detail and explained everything clearly and patiently. Dr. Cho was also professional, knowledgeable, and made me feel comfortable throughout the visit. The entire team was welcoming and attentive. I highly recommend Dr. Cho and Sarah to anyone looking for excellent dental care at a reasonable price.

    Hi! I'm a model. My online portfolio is at www.esther.com. I'm writing this review for Dr. Cho's office because I have a dental appointment coming up. And do you know how I feel? Calm, relaxed, and looking forward to it! This dental office is not your average dental experience. First of all, when you walk into Dr's Cho's office, you're greeted by the ever beautiful, bright and vivacious Lorena (who looks like she's won "Miss Universe"). She is the office manager and runs the place with almost a militant accuracy, concise, and professional. Then you'll meet Yina who handles us patients with kindness and empathy. When you're feeling nervous about getting in "the chair" your fears are dashed away by Dr. Cho's assistant, Bemmy who comes to make you feel comfortable and heard. By the time you see Dr. Cho you are quite relaxed in his state of the art dental office, run by supportive and nurturing professional women. And Dr. Cho is a highly skilled and talented dentist. He is gentle yet effective. I also really appreciate how he takes the time to really listen and connect with you. Other dentists I've been to before just treat you like a number. My dental hygienist is Danielle and she is so good, so thorough. We often joke about our mutual OCD and I can tell she feels as good as I do after a good cleaning. I highly recommend Dr. Cho's office to anyone who needs to see a dentist but who is normally apprehensive about going. This is NOT your average dental office. They go above and beyond to make YOU feel relaxed, calm, and assured that empathetic professionals are on your side and will take care of you. Thanks Dr. Cho and team for my smile!

    This place is absolutely amazing! From the front office personnel to the dental assistants,…read morehygienists, and dentists-all easily earn 5 stars! Professional, friendly, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable. Usually see Dr. Rygg-he's great. Today I saw Dr. Ortega-she was phenomenal! Ashley is up front and is always friendly and lets other members is the team know right away when I'm there. Merush (spelling) the hygienist is so kind, thorough, and gentle. The dental assistants have always been extremely kind and helpful. Today Monica helped me out-she was the bomb. She got my inlay designed really quickly and was patient and kind enough to let me watch the process when I asked. She kindly said, "it's your tooth-of course you can watch!" Seriously don't get how this place gets less than 5 stars. The dental team even stayed late today so I could get an inlay the same day as my exam so I didn't have to come back; top-notch and customer-oriented to say the least!!

    I really wanted to love this place. I was excited to finally find a local dentist through my…read moreinsurance, but the experience left a bad taste in my mouth--literally and figuratively. From the moment I sat down, it felt like the goal wasn't to help me, it was to upsell me. A dental hygienist came in and strongly pushed an extremely expensive deep cleaning treatment, claiming I had gum disease and bone loss--despite no other dentist ever telling me this before. The plan involved lasers and multiple stages of treatment totaling around $2,200--and that was with my two insurance policies on file. I came in to address an painful bump on my palate and potentially a failing crown, but it seemed like unless I paid heavily out of pocket, they couldn't or wouldn't move forward. I only allowed them to do imaging and the exam. The rest felt like a sales pitch. And that's not why I go to a dentist. The doctor I saw (Dr. Ekta) told me that a root canal I had done at another office was "botched" and needed to be redone--which is fine, that's her professional opinion. But when I asked if she could write a brief statement or letter so I could appeal the insurance claim, she refused. To me, that's a red flag. If you're confident enough in your diagnosis to tell me I need to redo a major dental procedure, you should be confident enough to put that in writing to support your patient. I had to use her chart notes, which were vague at best. The only positive part of my visit was the x-ray technician--she had a great personality and made me feel comfortable during that part of the process. Props to her. But overall, the practice feels profit-driven, not patient-focused. Between the aggressive upselling, the lack of support with my insurance, and the general vibe of "pay big or get nothing," I won't be returning. And if you're thinking of coming here--read the reviews first.

Over the phone, Jennifer was extremely kind, considerate, and knowledgeable. She took the time to address recommendations that felt counterintuitive to my oral care and happily educated me on my concerns. When I arrived, the receptionists immediately knew who I was and greeted me warmly--clear evidence of strong communication among the staff. Julie was quick and efficient with the X-rays, and Dr. Rauterkus was refreshingly honest and gave me so much clarity on the issues I've been facing. Overall, the office is extremely clean, the staff is wonderful, and the environment feels genuinely happy. I would definitely recommend this place.

Their advice and recommendations have always been thoughtful and helpful. The entire staff is always friendly and personable, and a pleasure to deal with. I also appreciate that when some problem does come up, his office makes a real effort to get you seen and taken care of as soon as possible. I have a couple of friends who see dentists who still send out crowns to a lab to be made, which makes for a weeks long process. I only mention this because Dr. David makes your crown while you wait and has been doing this for so long I would have thought that all dentists were also doing this but I guess some don't. But I do know that his work is excellent and crowns always fit perfectly.

    My second review for Dr. McGrady and her wonderful staff. My 23yo cognitively impaired and autistic…read moreson can no longer be seen in a hospital setting for his dental procedures. His whole life, we have had to have him under general anesthesia I'm rider to get any and all dental done: day, cleanings, fillings, etc.. because of his sensory issues and flight/fight fears. In the past year, McGrady has been the first and only dentist who has managed to do cleanings in her office, winning my son's trust with her patient, calm and non-condescending manner. Today, she managed to have two cavities filled, without general anesthesia, in her office --- and my son did wonderfully. They are true miracle workers and I'm forever grateful!!

I was having trouble getting my son to let me brush his teeth, or getting him to try himself. Dr McGrady was able to keep my son calm in the chair and remove the buildup on his molar. She gave me a lot of great advice that quickly led my son to becoming a willing & sometimes even happy participant in the brushing of his teeth 2 times a day! She also spent extra time sending me info on different toothpastes & ingredients that I was worried about due to him having bad reactions to a popular ingredient. We will definitely be returning here for my son's next appointment in 6 months!
