Wonderful people, wonderful staff. I went in alone with my two daughters and they needed to do x-rays so the nurse offered to take my daughters to color while the x rays were being done. This office goes above and beyond, and cares about their patients. They are so patient with the kids, even the kids can tell they are good people. I went here when I was a kid and now my husband and two daughters go with me. Wouldnt change a thing.

Dr. Tomaszewski has to be one of the most remarkable doctors- dentist that Ive had the privilege of knowing. On two occasions separated by many yrs I had the most awful experience with tooth pain and he not only fit me in immediately but on a weekend both times made certain to call me back ASAP due to my pain and helped me along with fitting me into the first appointment of his next worked day. This is something you NEVEr see- ever. He is so incredibly kind, sensitive to the patients pain and he is extremely qualified and the best dentist and doctor Ive had the pleasure and gift of knowing

Dr Steve Tomaszewski and the entire staff at the Camellia City Family Dentistry practice are caring, professional, and far above par in their approach to providing the best oral care available.

He served in the medical corps of the United States Navy and Rose to the rank of Captain. He was one of the youngest rank officers that was stationed overseas treating our services men in the combat zones in Afghanistan. He has invested heavily in his practice to keep the
