I am a mother of 3 teenage sons. Along with my husband, we all feel that Dr. Salkola is outstanding. She is extremely knowledgeable in the dentistry arena and then some!!!++++ She has a personal touch that I haven't seen before and I have lived all over the world. In addition, I see Joanie, the hygienist, who performs exemplary and personable as well. Vera, Renee, Sandra, you all welcome me professionally and make the dentist's visit pleasant and fun! You're the best:-) Dr. Salkola's surrounding staff is friendly and profess... read more
Dr. Salkola and her assistants are all fantastic! Fun, gentle, sensitive to my needs when I'm in that chair with open mouth. Dr. Salkola did great work on a whole array of issues in my mouth, including a deep back filling and crown. The whole office has been friendly and professional every time I've been there, both for myself and my teenage son. I am surprised by all the negative reviews since I haven't found any cause for complaints at all.
Dr. Mimi Salkola... well, let me start at the beginning. I'm 69 years old. I've moved a lot in my life - South America, Arizona, So. California, northern California (various cities), Germany. So I've seen a LOT of dentists. Mimi Salkola simply blows all the others away! She is by far the best dentist I have ever seen. Her professional skills are outstanding. She has done dozens of procedures for me (problem mouth!). I've always been delighted with the results. Also, the procedures have been handled expertly and with utmost c... read more
Dr. Mimi Salkola gets 5+ stars. She is very gentle, and very sensitive with her patients. She takes her dentistry to the next level as an art. . I do need a mouthful of work, and she enlarges the xrays and points out and explains what she is talking about, so I understand. If she were to go elsewhere, I would follow her for sure. Finance is a consideration for me right now, but if she knows that, she will help you work around it (as far as she can). Unfortunately, the overall office gets a 1-star. Sandra, the bookkeeper... read more
To anyone trying to find a new Dentist....you must choose this very personable, family-oriented business. I have three teenagers and both my husband and I have been a member for a year and love the service, the friendly, yet professional staff and extremely helpful. My teeth are healthy, clean and look great after my hygienist, Joanie, cleans them to almost perfection (Hey, nothing is perfect in this beautiful world.) My Dr. Salkola (Mimi) is a dear friend and she does an outstanding, professional topnotch job...she striv... read more
The negative review below make me nervous, and I don't discount them just because they don't match my experience. That said, I've been very happy with Gentle Dental. I have seen Dr. Glerum for three years now, and also enjoyed extremely thorough, painless cleanings. I have had some discomfort in a rear molar for a number of years; the tooth has a large filling (done by my former dentist in New York), and the area has had some related periodontal surgery. Dr. Glerum continued to monitor the tooth, and encouraged me to wait o... read more
I've been going to this Gentle Dental location for a few years and have had a good experience. The hygienist always does a great job for cleanings and the current dentist that I see, Dr. Nyugen, is friendly. The front office staff is always pleasant as well. I haven't had any "work" done thankfully, just cleanings. I have considered Invisalign and other things but they haven't been pushy with trying to sell me cosmetic dentistry that may not be necessary. They were also prompt in working me into a quick appointment when... read more
I swear, seeing Alex and Dr. Glerum is my most pleasant health care interaction. Every six months I get on my little bicycle, all excited to head to the dentist, all whistling and already thinking about what despicably sugary and sticky food I will eat once I tire of that perfectly-clean feeling.
I would have to agree with some of the other reviews, Dr Lotfi is fantastic! I have seen him a couple of times and I would say that he is very thorough and he explains everything as he's doing it. He invites the patient to ask questions and gives his honest recommendations. If you get nervous, he's a good dentist to have. He was very positive and encouraging, he's someone you can have confidence in. He limited the work the hygentist did because he wanted to make sure that he was doing most of the work, which I appreciate. I ... read more
