They were supportive, considerate and professional. It really made a big difference! Dr. Patrician has the latest technology which gave my new crown a great fit. He is a talented dentist who has a great touch and inspires confidence. I also go regularly to his hygienist Erin, who in a word is terrific. She is professional, knowledgeable, has a great touch and is easy to talk to. I highly recommend her. Dr. Patrician's excellence is reflected in the rest of his staff. Whether it's the front desk or the billing department, they are a pleasure to work with, patient and very helpful. Dr. Patrician and team, thanks for everything!

Yeah that's what you feel as soon as you walk in the door, you took a gamble and you hit the jackpot! It's like... Science, compassion and humor had a baby and that baby wanted to be a dentist since he was 6 yrs. old and he found people that were like minded and so inspirational that you find yourself doing "impromptu flossing" all the time and really participating in having a great and easy smile. Yeah, and I am NOT even exaggerating. Sincerely, Jo Toman

THIS PRACTICE IS DANGEROUS AND NEGLIGENT. NOT SAFE FOR PEOPLE WITH HEALTH CONDITIONS…read more Do not let them near your mouth, especially if you have any other health conditions or disabilities. They do not care if they put you in danger and they do not care what happens to you after surgery. It's actually insane. If you have any issues after your mouth has been operated on they will take ZERO responsibility--and that is the mark of a terrible practice. Shame on you Dr. Burke. I have a condition called Elhers Danlos Syndrome and because that was ignored by this facility....I have very preventable complications from surgery. SHE PUT A MEDICAL DEVICE IN MY MOUTH WITHOUT MY CONSENT THAT HURT ME SO MUCH! They sent me the wrong paperwork and never explained what would be happening with the surgery or that they would be inserting something called an "essix". Waking up from sedation to a device in your mouth that is causing you extreme pain and confusion is such a vulnerable and scary feeling. I had to piece together what happened with google in the middle of the night while puking and in extreme pain. That cannot be legal to not inform your patients correctly. Your patient should never feel that vulnerable or scared or confused. I have spent a week in uncontrolled pain and panic and I don't want this to happen to someone else. Dr. Burke is genuinely not safe for people with outlying conditions and she does not listen!!!! EDS is a connective tissue disorder and my gums do not react like a normal persons would. It is so important to treat the body as a whole.. and this practice does not care about that. It's complete false advertising. Now that I have major issues from HER negligence she is mad at me that I am pointing out what happened. In fact she just stopped responding and will not help me at all. You are a terrible human Dr. Carmen Burke. You can tell she's a narcissist just by the way she responds. It's so scary. This office is a complete mess and they can't even get basic paperwork right. The sent me the "wrong" paperwork so I wasn't informed properly before the surgery about some major elements of it. Pretty sure thats ILLEGAL. Then on the "correct" paper work they sent me AFTER my surgery---they sent prices that are six times more than what they actually charge? I got upset about that and they acted like I was an idiot. If your paperwork says a device is $650 but it's actually only $50... that's your negligence. I mean that's not even a small discrepancy. That is how every interaction I have had here has gone. They say one thing and do another and then act like you're the problem for pointing it out. You guys deal with serious procedures that affect peoples entire lives.. you better get it together. The communication between the staff and the doctors is terrifying and nothing is made clear to you. I NEVER MET WITH DR.BURKE BEFORE SURGERY!! She didn't sit down with me and get any history or go over treatment options or explain what would happen with the surgery... NOTHING. She claims in these reviews that every patient gets a full work up and gets every option explained to them extensively-- I can tell you that's a lie! It's so dangerous and unethical to never meet a patient before you operate on them. And I bet she will have some crazy excuse and blame me when she responds to this review so know I am telling the truth. I want to save someone else from this hellish experience. I chose this facility because I care about holistic health and I thought they would too. WRONG. Dr.Carmen Burke is just like any other western medicine hack doctor that doesn't listen to you and doesn't care what you know about your own body. She is ARROGANT beyond belief and if you bring a concern to her she will gaslight you in the cruelest way. Get a new job if you can't care about your patients anymore. She needs to be humbled because you have clearly really hurt people in serious ways in these reviews. Make sure to check on other websites because she has some horrible reviews there- including from former staff members. They all confirm exactly what I just experienced with her.

The new hygienist was careles when cleaning hooking my gums multiple times saying it was my fault. I had enough and walked out to find her triangulating (talking about me with other hygienist).

No one said anything until i was in the chair. No one gave me the choice of using her or not. That's not just for me. That's for everyone who walks into the practice. There was feeble 90 year old couple who walked into the office after I promptly walked out. Did they deserve to know? Did they deserve their freedom of 'choice?' Where is the responsibility?

Update 11/11/25: I went in for a bi-annual cleaning and…read morecheck-up yesterday. Marian is still a great hygienist. Very thorough and praises me for good home dental habits. She even laughs at my jokes. This dental group in general is full of positive, encouraging folks, from the front desk, to the office folk, to the dental team. I feel like we are all working to keep my mouth, teeth, and gums in good shape. I saw Dr. Dhaliwal this time and found her thorough and knowledgeable about the condition of my teeth. We bonded over both identifying (and me remembering) a cosmetic filling I had done years back on the outside of a tooth. I tend to chat a lot, and Dr. Dhaliwal and I had a good conversation as we went over my x-rays about the state of dentistry in overall medical/health industry. Yeah. :) And I really love that I can see my x-rays and the doc can point out what they see there and any specific concerns.(or kudos!) The only negative was that I had to wait longer than anticipated to begin my exam and cleaning. My appt was at noon, and they had gotten behind. It wasn't a hardship for me because I didn't need to be anywhere right after the appointment. But, if you are squeezing a cleaning in between work, lunch or other appts, you might want to get one earlier in the day to mitigate the chance the office is behind schedule by the time your appt comes around. Update 05/05/25: I am still very pleased with my experiences at North Boulder Dental. I still see Marian and she still does a wonderful job. This time I saw Dr. Sica, who I have been seeing since I joined the practice. We discovered today that we started at the practice about the same time -- 20 mumble years ago! At today's visit, I was due for x-rays. I was concerned about having another x-ray because I'd already had 2 in the last 2 months. Dr. Sica looked at the chart Marian had just updated and said I was good to go for another 6 months. The Staff is patient-focused, knowledgeable, caring, and there to help. I believe my teeth and gums are in good shape not only because of the staff's excellent preventive and proactive care, but because they have instructed me well in how to care for my own teeth and gums. At 60+, I have been able to maintain minimal periodontal disease and to stave off gingivitis so far. That said, the Staff has also seen me through root canals, caps, and replacement fillings. The only Con is that NBD does not take insurance. They have their own dental plan, which does not save us any significant money. (Unless our teeth get worse, which we want to avoid!) Previous Review: I've been with North Boulder Dental for 24+ years. Can't recommend them highly enough! During my visit yesterday, Marian was very personable. She gave me a thorough teeth cleaning and more information about geographic tongue, which helps me deal with it. She and Dr. Kristi praised me for the excellent job I was doing, which helps me feel capable of managing oral health issues.

But what was far worse was the dentist. Dr. Katrina (her first name) came in and mumbled a number of observations to the hygienist, hardly spoke to me at all in the 5 minutes she was in the room. Near as I could figure out she was referring me to an oral surgeon for an assessment. However, once I read the referral I realized she was referring me for extractions!! When I questioned her about this she said, more like mumbled, there was a lot of decay and I needed to have all my upper teeth removed. No discussion how this might impact ME, the patient - No discussion about anything. Her chair-side skills were non-existent. I cancelled my oral surgeon appt. and found another dentist.

I went to Dr. Holecek, D.D.S at Boulder Dental Health last week with a molar cracked in half. I was very nervous! The doctor was incredibly understanding and did everything he could to make sure I was relaxed, comfortable and informed of every little thing he was doing. He even taught me meditative breathing techniques to calm myself during the procedure. I was covered in a warm blanket, given holistic calming drops under my tongue and even given noise canceling headphones and an Ipod loaded with Alpha wave inducing music! He made me feel at ease and completed the work quickly and with the care and empathy usually only pediatric dentists bother to use. My husband had seen Dr. Hook at the same location a week earlier so I got to see the difference between the two dentists in the same office and let me tell you, it was night and day. Dr. Holcek laid out my treatment plan completely and made sure I was comfortable with it. I will definitely be back to B.D.H but only for Dr. Holcek!
