This is an office with great dentists who truly care about making kids happy, healthy, and comfortable going to the dentist. Our kids went here for about 5 years and we were really happy for several years. It looks like a forest, there are toys in the waiting room, they give fun prizes, and in every way they're so centered around kids. Our experience with them wasn't as good during Covid. I want to be honest about it because it was frustrating for us, but I understand it's very difficult to operate safely in these extraordinary circumstances and it's a challenge for every

I took my 18-month old to Dr. Rabitz, and he did great! He was so comfortable, he didn't fuss or cry. The office is super cute, the staff was super friendly, and Dr. Rabitz was sooo nice and knowledgeable. The office also had lots of COVID-19 precautions in place. As a dentist myself, I was very impressed with the office!

This is our first visit with Dr.Lam. My son had awesome experience with the Doc. She patiently answered to all my questions and offered no additional treatment unlike other dentistry i have tried. It was a quick and smooth process. All staffs was great, welcoming and cared about making things smooth for kids. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and have set up an appointment for daughter as well.
