Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Gentle. Caring. After waiting 10 years to go to dentist, due to my fear of the dentist, I finally went in with bleeding gums and pain. Dr. Sandler and her front desk staff were very calming, soothing, and let me know I was in control of the experience. My cost and insurance cost were explained in detail. Wow!! Who knew going to the dentist could be healing and kind.

Dr Sandler + staff are exceptionally knowledgeable
Dr Sandler + staff are exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. From the front desk, to the hygienist and the Dr themselves - the staff genuinely go out of their way to care for their patients. Apparently I'd been caring for my teeth improperly all of my life before coming to Dr. Sandler's office - no other dentist I've previously seen had ever taken the time to correct that, but the staff at Dr. Sandler's office patiently showed me how to brush and floss my teeth. I've also had a wonderful experience with the hygienists Veronica and Pam - they are so gentle and make you feel very comfortable. Other hygienists I've seen had been rough and always made my gums bleed - not so here! I can't say enough about this dental clinic - although I'm now living and working further away, I still choose to come see Dr. Sandler, not only because she's good at what she does, but she and her staff truly care about their patients. I love it here!

Thank you, Veronica
Veronica has been cleaning my teeth for maybe 2 years, and I can honestly say she is the best at her job. She takes time to explain why I need to use a water pic and exactly how to use a Sonicare brush. I think I take better care of my teeth and gums because of her attention to detail and her actual caring that I do my best. Thanks, Veronica!

Hands down the best dentist office
Hands down the best dentist office I have ever been to. Dr. Sandler and her team are so warm and welcoming. After a routine cleaning, the X-rays showed that I needed some work done. Dr. Sandler wrote up a dental plan for the work and thoroughly explained it. She gave me her recommendations in a way that was ver helpful and I didn't feel pressured at all, as seeing the cost of dental work can be very daunting. I will highly recommend Dr. Sandler and her team to anyone looking for a high quality, trust worthy dentist!

Always a great experience!
Dr. Sandler and the entire staff are excellent. In the last two weeks I have had two teeth with older fillings break apart. The office staff went out of their way to work me into their schedule. I have been going to this office for over 10 years. I highly recommend Dr. Sandler and her team!

Dr. Sandler and the entire staff make it a pleasure to see a dentist. I never thought I'd say that about a dental appointment, but everyone seems so happy to see me and they go out of their way to make it as painless as possible. If they see a problem with my teeth, they are quick to correct it.

Dr. Sandler and her team are fantastic! They are friendly, expertly efficient, and communicate well as a team and individually. Today I learned that I should floss, then brush, then use mouthwash. I guess for 50 years I thought it was the exact reverse. But my hygienist reminded me and explained the order is better to floss first. Gotta love my dentist office!
