2 weeks agoI have had several procedures done with Dr Ana Maria Orlando Acosta over the past year, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is kind, courteous, considerate, and always goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and cared for. Her attention to detail and the quality of her work are truly amazing. Every procedure has been handled with professionalism, care, and precision. I’m so grateful for the excellent treatment and support I have received. I highly recommend Dr Ana Maria Orlando Acosta to anyone looking for a caring and exceptional dentist.

2 weeks agoThe staff were thoroughly professional. They explained the process every step of the way. They took the time to do a thorough check to ensure they were giving me a clear understanding of what my options were for any further dental work required.

a month agoI was very happy with Dr Ana’s service. No other dentist has shown me how to properly clean under my bridge. She is very caring and gentle, and always explains what needs to be done for my teeth. She takes her time when cleaning, and my teeth look great afterwards. Her fees are also very reasonable.

a month agoDr Varsha is not only a highly professional and adept dentist, she has a wonderfully warm and kind personality and has been fantastic with my daughter who is often nervous for appointments. She always makes her feel calm and special and I would highly recommend Dr Varsha and the practice.

2 months agoEverything I could want in a medical centre. I’m able to see my preferred doctor around 90% of the time, and when they’re unavailable, I’m consistently well cared for by another experienced practitioner. The reception staff are outstanding—professional, attentive, and always prompt in responding to patients’ needs.

2 months agoFirst time was absolutely amazing, got cosmetic work done and looked better then what I had before but it felt very rushed, and I couldn’t floss my teeth afterwards (wasn’t checked) . Had to wait to come get it fixed another 2/3 weeks came In to get it fixed. Which fine understand your busy. Was excited to get this sorted cause it was 1.painful and 2 frustrating and 3. one side was bigger then the other in photos looked very odd. Dentist seemed annoyed she had to fix it and got water in my nose multiple times. She had said it looked that way because there was blood got trapped in the resin she made the teeth symmetrical now and fixed the flossing issue but only used edge compound to fix the issue and it now looks very opaque I said as much in the room she said give it a few days I have and it looks the exact same. She also said to me that that’s the best she can do and that if I want it to look less opaque I’d need veneers. Which is wild. my friend had similar work done and looks very natural and gradient u can barely tell works been done. I’ve come here to fix an insecurity not make more. I’ve paid to get this done and I’m just extremely disappointed. She’s a lovely lady and was so sweet the first time but I’m so sad about the care and effort and dismissiveness.
