"Very professional and knowledgeable staff and Doctors. Took time and explained everything. Answered all my questions. Highly recommended."
"Very impressed, great dental office"
"Easy friendly efficient"
"The hygienist would give me breaks when cleaning my teeth to make sure I was ok. He would talk to me to make me feel comfortable since I told him I hate the dentist! He kept saying my teeth were very clean! The dentist answered all my questions that I had plus the questions I had about my 7 year old son that I was worried about! The wait time for the dentist took a few, but it was a holiday and only one dentist there."
"Excellent experience. Got there at 9AM and was finished by 9:30AM. Great job, no pain :) Courteous and sweet staff."
"Wonderful experience. I had an issue with my insurance, and the girl from the front desk, offered herself to speak with them to help me out. I was in a lot of pain and frustrated for the insurance problem, but they treated me with a lot of compassion and respect. The doctor, the assistant and front desk were excellent and very professional. I will definitely recommend this place."
"Probably like most people I hated going to the dentist and postponed going to see one until absolutley necessary. The reason I said "hated" is because this is no longer the case. Thanks to Now Dental's staff and Dr. Hassan. I can now go to the dentist knowing I will find a kind, and understanding staff. Throughout any procedure, Dr. Hassan, will check to see if I'm ok. Knowing this, helped me keep up my dental health to ensure my smile is the best it can be. Thank You Dr. Hassan and the staff at Now Dental."

Korine, Melissa, and Nancy, as part of the assisting team, exhibited a level of compassion and expertise that truly set my mind at ease. Dr. Sayed's expertise and commitment to patient care were evident throughout my visit, and I am so appreciative of the top-notch service I received. Moreover, I would like to commend the team for maintaining reasonable pricing without compromising the quality of care. In an industry where healthcare costs can be a concern, your commitment to providing accessible dental services is truly commendable.

I don't like seeing Dr. Herman because of what he has to do to me, but when he has to do it, he does it masterfully. All of the front desk staff is pleasant and helpful.

She laid out a plan for me and made sure that I was at ease. I'm definitely very pleased with the customer service and the outcome of everything."
"I have been with Now Dental for seven years. My family and I love the service that we receive. I always have high expectation every time my family and I go for our appointment. They treat you like family, with courtesy, and they are very respectful of one's time. on a rating basis I rate them a five star family oriented business. I referred my friends and co-workers to the office because I wanted them to receive the same quality of service that my family and I have been blessed with and become part of their family. My greatest fear was always the waiting period that one spent in doctor's office when you have your own important things to take care during the day, well they did not let me down, the most I waited usually be 15 minutes unless there is an emergency. For the seven years my family and I been there, we cannot complain at all thank God. Quality, Access, Quality. Love Now Dental. Keep up the great work."

"The staff is the most amazing, helpful, flexible staff I've ever experienced at any medical office. The follow up after I made the appointment at zocdoc was a smooth process and they were even able to push my appointment up that day. I was a new patient here and they were able to take my insurance info over the phone when confirming the appointment, and just asked me a few in case of emergency questions at the front desk which equaled NO PAPERWORK. I got there early just in case I had to fill some out so my wait time was on me, otherwise it was pretty quick. The dental hygienist, Maria, was lovely and personable all the way through. Dr. Francis I only saw for a brief time but she too was very nice. They both cleaned and checked my teeth in a gentle, skillful manner. I came home and told my own family I found our new dentist!"

Going to the dentist is not so bad after all."
