Stella H.

I followed my dentist for over 30 years. When he retired (love and miss you Dr. You) I was so nervous about everything, especially how my dentist was going to be. Long story short. I am blessed, yet again! My new dentist is Dr. Sanghvi. Here come the adjectives! She is so nice, informative, caring, insures i understand what and why she is going to do something, supportive, professional, down to earth, explains things, charming personality. She has such a calm and peaceful spirit and a beautiful-contagious smile. She makes me feel safe and truly has my best interest at heart when it comes to my teeth and well-being. She even takes the time to chat "life" stuff during her busy schedule. I am glad to have met her and look forward to many years with Dr. Sanghvi. To boot, love ALL the staff.

Burgundy E.

What a amazing experience all around. I brought my partner in for a same day emergency extraction for his wisdom tooth, he was able to be the the dentist chair within an hour of calling. The care, concern and level of compassion in unmatched. A big thank you to the entire staff. We will see you again on future appointments.

I love everyone there! They are so friendly and helpful. I don't have insurance but they were less expensive than other dentists.

HB S.

Truly an exceptional office. I switched to this practice 1.5 years ago, and wish I had sooner. The hygienists trained me to floss and brush correctly, and happy to say my appearance/level of pain has improved tremendously no thanks to their efforts. The dentists offer options while also understanding my goals for the future. I can't speak highly enough of this place, and every interaction has been very pleasant and shows genuine interest and kindness.

Myra L.

This place shows a lot of care and compassion towards their patients. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming as well. I moved my family to this location because of the level of service we receive each visit. I love their attention to detail. Thank you!

I have such a fear of dental work (had a horrible dentist as a child who felt I did not need any numbing before most drilling) my whole life. But everyone here is so gentle so encouraging to report pain. I don't feel as much fear as I used to....thank you Dr Sanghvi and all your associates including the front desk!!!!!!
