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.

A Great Team

A uniquely kind, professional, gentle dentist.
Dr. Sakata's attention to detail is remarkable. He and his accomplished staff made me feel like I was someone special. They explained the procedure to me, they took away my fear by educating me. They worked around my schedule and catered to my needs and alleviated my fears. Dr. Sakata's gentle touch makes a "Dental Visit" as pleasant as possible. Plus he is a nice person, remembers me, and makes me feel unique as a person.
