Has a rude receptionist and the office doesn't return phone calls in a timely manner.

Very good, very professional. Would absolutely recommend. Even though they charged me a couple hundred more than the estimate, I'm satisfied enough with my visit to award 5 stars. read more

My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Shank since he opened his own office in Englewood, Colorado. He is a wonderful person and dentist. We have moved to various parts of the metro Denver area since we began our association with Dr. Shank, which has given us a lot further distance to drive, but we would never change dentists, he is just the best. We absolutely recommend him to any one that is looking for quality in a dentistry. Sincerely, Shiela Koloditch read more

I drive across Denver, from the north end, just to see Dr. Shank every six months. He is incredibly competent, down-to-earth and funny. I've been impressed with his entire team for the 2+ years I've been going to this office. I was told by multiple dentists that I should consider Invisalign for a bite issue I had. The prior dentists, of which I had some really poor experiences, all wanted to take that effort on in-house so they could profit. Dr. Shank has been doing Invisalign for over a decade and instead referred me to a phenomenal orthodontist because my problem was complex and he wanted to ensure it was done properly. That spoke volumes for me because he wasn't interested in the financial gain and would rather have it completed by a specialist. I so appreciate having an honest, skilled dentist I feel at ease with (and makes me laugh!) every time I have to get a cleaning or other dental work completed. read more

Dr. Shank is great. His personality makes you feel relaxed, and he cares about his patients. He is always busy, treating 2-3 patients at a time, but I've never had to wait more than 5 minutes. The office runs very efficiently, the way they book the appointments, and I always get a call and SMS to remind me. I can also come in late (4:30 PM) so I don't have to miss work. My issue was a cracked crown that had to me removed and replaced, so it took several visits. I never felt rushed, and Dr. Shank has no problem giving anesthesia if you're a wimp like me. He is very thorough, has a gentle touch and explains everything he is doing. My new crown looks and feels great. I hope my cleanings will be just as thorough and gentle as this past experience. read more

I cannot speak more highly of the experience I had with Dr. Shank. This guy is great! I initially went to him because my previous dentist was putting on the "hard sell" to get 7 fillings re-done, and then became defensive when I wanted to be more informed about the reasoning. I chose to get a second opinion with Dr. Shank. He took plenty of time with me and was more than happy to answer all of my questions. He suggested getting two of those 7 fillings re-done, but let me make the decision without a guilt trip or hard sell. I appreciate a dentist like Dr. Shank, who was willing to work with me about what needs to be done, and not one who dictates and scares me into procedures. Now for the best part! I am TERRIFIED of having filings done, especially on my lower jaw, as I am notoriously hard to numb. Dr. Shank said he had some "tricks" up his sleeve to numb me more effectively. I am not kidding, this is the very first lower jaw experience I have EVER had where I did not feel a thing. IT WAS AMAZING!! I am so grateful! I could even relax a little, thanks to nitrous oxide, so I didn't have to white knuckle it through the whole procedure. Dr. Shank asked me ahead of time if I like to be oblivious to what is going on, or if I like to know it all. So based on my preference, he explained the what and why of everything he was doing the entire time. He even showed me before and after pictures of the two fillings. This is easily the best dental experience I have ever had in my life. I am so glad I found such a good dentist! read more

Dr. Shank is great, caring and kind. Cant recommend him enough. However, his front desk assistant is difficult to work with, and her "waitlist" where she will call you if there is an opening is a joke. Be prepared to call back to check for appointments because she definitely won't be calling you. read more

Phenomenal team! Dr. Shank has an awesome knowledge base, is really skilled (with minimal discomfort from the standpoint of a dental patient), and has a great bedside manner. read more

Dr Shank has been my dentist for almost 7 years now. He and his staff are always personable, friendly, professional, and give the best care possible. Their attention to detail is unparalleled and they always give you the best treatment and plan for YOU. Just recently I chipped on of my front teeth - I was able to get in to see Dr Shank the same day I called for an appointment. He was thorough with his work - you can't even tell that half of the tooth (in the middle of my face) is fake. By far the best dental care I've received!! read more

As a recent Denver transplant, I was seeking a new dentist for myself and my husband. A coworker recommended Dr. Shank-Mountain View Dental Care and I couldn't be happier. Amazingly thorough, kind, professional, yet fun group. My husband gets anxiety when visiting dentists and he had no issues at all on his visit to this practice. Very honest and won't try to sell you services like others have done in my past. Highly recommended! read more

I moved away from Denver a few months ago, and I genuinely am considering flying back to visit just to see Dr. Shank. He's extremely gentle and caring, super nice, and I absolutely enjoy everyone in his office. I'll miss the best dentist I've ever seen. Thank you, Dr. Shank! read more

Dr. Shank is a prize! On Thanksgiving morning my molar cracked in half. I couldn't wait for a repair because I was leaving for a two week cruise that night. Dr. Shank installed a natural feeling patch a few hours later and I was still able to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner. I have had very good appointments for cleanings, crowns, whitening, and filling replacements over the years. I would never switch to another dentist! He is very personable and skilled. read more

Dr. Shank is wonderful. He's entertaining, knowledgeable, and willing to carefully explain procedures or concerns. His staff members are also great, and they have been very flexible dealing with scheduling and payment options. All of my family members go to Dr. Shank now! read more

dr shank is a wonderful person and knowledgeable dentist. His office staff and dental assistants are also some of the best at what they do. Ive been treated with the best care. Thank you for making an unpleasant preventative health necessity bearable. Thanks to you I have the best dental care possible. read more

Dr. Shank and his team are the certifiably the best!!! Picture this...a Denver snowstorm with at least 8 inches of snow on the ground, still piling up and blowing like the dickens. Cars are stranded about every block and his team still made it in at 7AM to finish my crown. That is service. They are all kind hearted, funny and a pleasure to be around. Thanks Dr Shank for being so kind even when things in life get a little stressful. You are a class act:) read more

I really liked Dr. Shank, he was great and very personable. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for the front desk. I waited 15 minutes in the front lobby before I ever saw anyone at the front desk. I was willing to look past that after my experience with Dr. Shank. However, my next appointment came around and I needed to reschedule. I called at least 6 times and wasn't able to reach anyone, so I left a message and waited and waited. The next call I received was to confirm my appointment. No idea what happened to my vmail. Instead of rescheduling I'm moving on to another dentist. I simply don't have enough time to wait... Wait in the front office, wait for someone to decide to answer the phone, wait for a callback, wait to see if someone will get the front desk right. read more

You simply won't find a better dentist. Dr. Shank is knowledgeable, current, gentle - check out his credentials. Especially if you need crowns or complicated dental work, this is your guy. He does it all, but you can trust him to do the tough stuff. He is pure quality. read more

This place rocks! Dr. Shank is really nice and even does your first cleaning so that he can familiarize himself with your teeth. The office is very clean, easy to get to and comfortable. The only negative I have is that the last time I was there I waited in waiting room for over 20 minutes with no one even acknowledging or apologizing that they were running late. They finally put me into a room where I waited another 15 minutes-again no one apologized or even acknowledged that I had now been waiting for over 35 minutes. I am still giving 5 stars because I think the reason they run late is because Dr. Shank is so precise and a bit of a perfectionist. I don't mind a wait if it means I get great dental work done-his secretary should do a better job apologizing and explaining why they are running late. I've have had 2 cavities filled, a crown and 3 cleanings-never had one problem!!! Top notch dentist and person. read more

I came to Mountain View Dental Care from a referral from a personal friend. The first thing that you notice about Dr. Shank's office is the wonderful decor and relaxing atmosphere. Every bit of their office is elegant from the bathroom (where there are toothbrushes, floss, and toothpaste for extra prep before your appointment) to being in the chair for a procedure. I am not a big fan of going to the dentist as it makes me nervous and my previous dentist was a bit of an old crab. The staff is absolutely wonderful and super nice. I'm fairly certain I've met almost all the staff. The office manager, Tammy, is professional and keeps everything in order, and was able to answer a question I forgot to ask Dr. Shank concerning when I was next able to eat/put pressure on my fillings. I came in to get 3 fillings, all done at the same time. I had to have anesthetic injected 2 additional times because I burning through it quickly (again due to nerves), and how deep the decay had extended. Even though I felt like the amount of times he had to re-administer anesthetic, Dr. Shank assured me that it was completely normal and his assistant had commented that it would be better to have it re-administered than suffer in silence. Dr. Shank was very calming, reassuring, and the relationships between his staff and himself is professional, yet personal. Several times during the procedure, I smiled and my nerves were settled a bit from their conversations. I was in and out sooner than I had expected. (My previous dentist would take a minimum of two hours for ONE filling, while THREE with Dr. Shank and his team took less than that. From my first consultation to my second visit, I am more than pleased to have Dr. Shank as my dentist, and will plan on going to him for as long as he's in practice. read more
