Friendly, professional, on time- Extra effort to make sure insurance will cover work. No worries about "hidden costs". Dr. Tran is great.

Dr. Goldman has been my regular dentist for almost six years now. Prior to her, I went to the same dentist (before moving from S. Cal.) for 25+ years, so I expected it to be hard to find a new one I'd like as much. But I did. She is outstanding, as is her staff. Very attentive to your concerns, very thorough, professional, and compassionate. Her team maintains responsible and well explained covid safety protocols. I recommend her very highly.

My family & I have been treating with Dr. Goldman for the last year. We had excellent dentists before, Dr. Rodegerdts and Dr. Bond. Since they have both retired, we tried a few others, but finally found Dr. Goldman. She and her staff are excellent and very down to earth. We appreciate the conservative collaborative approach to their dentistry practice. We would highly recommend them to all. Sincerely, Jim Nolan and Family.

I just had my second visit with Dr. Amy Tran and the staff. Very professional and friendly. I had previously been going to my long time dentist (+25 years in Berkeley but since our move to Woodland, wanted to find someone local. So far I am very pleased.

Had my teeth cleaning this morning and continue to be impressed with the thoroughness that staff maintain for precautionary measures in preventing covid. Staff are authentic in relating and very knowledgeable and willing to answer questions related to my dental questions. All woman staff make for a friendly and congenial work environment, it appears. Dr. Goldman works very respectfully with her staff, reflecting a collegial atmosphere of cooperation and support. I do not hesitate to recommend Dr. Goldman and staff to those seeking a dentist.

Dr. Goldman has been my dentist for several years now. Every visit has been highly successful. Even when going in for just a cleaning, it's Dr. Goldman who does the cleaning not an assistant. She just fixed a problem that I have had since I was 12 years old, and no other dentist even made a recommendation, much less was able to fix the problem. I'm 65 now and seeing my smile in the mirror after she was done was pretty emotional. I highly recommend her and her staff.

I'm new to town and didn't have a dentist here yet. I had a sudden problem with my tooth and they were able to schedule me in the very next day! All of the staff were super friendly and made me feel welcome and comfortable. They took the time to explain the problem and offer me different solutions. I will definitely be staying with this office for the remainder of my time here.
