I have going to CFDC for over a decade and I love them ALL! They have a new hygienist, Lindsay, and she is amazing! She was so mindful of my comfort and before I knew it she was done. I will absolutely continue to request her for the rest of my dental life.

Staff is always friendly and helpful. I have pretty bad anxiety but they are so great about keeping me informed about what they're doing or going to do. Great place for your entire family from kids to adults. My kids and I have been coming here for over 3 years and love it.

I had to move dentists because I found one who specializes in patients who gag easily. They were nice and friendly and did what they could considering I am really bad at X rays and dental stuff in general. I tried to get a crown but couldn't because of my gaging as mentioned above. They gave me a full refund.

The dentist office staff is very friendly and nice. I've been coming here about a couple of years now. They have a new dental hygienist who is very gentle and nice. Bedside manners are through the roof, as with all the staff in the office. Dr. E. Amato was straight forward and gentle. I can be a very sensitive dentle patient, and he has made me feel heard which has helped lesson the discomfort I can get. The staff is also VERY understanding of your personal situation and helpful to where u need to be with your health. Kudos!!!

Today I met Aida She provided some of the best customer service I have ever seen. Working with children can be tricky and sometimes even frustrating, but she made my 5 year old's dental visit seem effortless. Thank you Aida and the entire staff at Chandler Family Dental. I am grateful to bring my family here and will gladly send referrals

My favorite dentist by far. The staff is all amazingly kind and Doc Amato is excellent. He's considerate and thorough. I've never had a poor experience in the past four years coming here. Also unlike a lot of these chain dentists in the east valley who are more interested in lining their pockets than their patients, I've never had to choose between my dental health and being able to pay my bills.

Dr Amato is professional and takes a conservative approach. An "old-school" dentist who doesn't upsell or steer a person toward unnecessary procedures.

I have been a patient at Chandler Family dental for many years. Dr. Amato is friendly, kind, and patient. He asks questions and continues to make adjustments until I am 100% happy and comfortable with the dental work I am receiving. He never acts rushed, and takes the time to address all of my concerns. Unlike other dental offices/dentists I been to, feel like I can trust him to advise me to move forward with dental work that I actually need. He is honest with me in regards to what I can safely wait on and what I need immediately. The hygienist, Sandy, is gentle, friendly and GOOD at her job. I always leave my regular cleaning and exams feeling confident that I have gotten the very best care. Marge, the owner, is incredibly welcoming. She always takes the time to ask me about my kids and family. When I go to the dentist, I want to feel comfortable and cared about, and this is what I feel at this office. In addition, when I have faced with the need for a more extensive dental work, I've always felt that the pricing was extremely reasonable fair. Dena, the office manager, is friendly, organized, and knows her stuff. It is awesome to be able to ask her a question or two about my dental care and know for certain that her advice it right on, it is clear that she has been in the industry for many, many years. Her friendly demeanor helps to make me feel right at home at this office. I have referred many of my closest friends and family members to Chandler Family Dental over the years and will continue to do so. I give this office, Dr. Amato, and all of the wonderful caring staff an enthusiastic A+!

My experience at CFD was nothing short of spectacular. I brought in my wife and kids this week and we were immediately greeted by the kind and welcoming ladies in the front. They put on Cocomelon for my kids and they loved it! Dr. Amato was gentle and so sweet to my kiddos. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a dentist, especially a family place!

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Amato for at least 5 years. He and his staff are the best team of professionals you'll ever meet. At the front you are greeted by Deena and Marge who are the sweetest. They take the time to get to know you and make you feel comfortable. You instantly feel like a part of their family. Then you go back and meet Dr. Amato and his assistants who are so polite and friendly. They work fast but they always stay with you and counsel you for however long you need. They really listen to you and answer your questions. My kids who are 6 and 8 are not scared of going to the dentist because Dr. Amato is very soft spoken and gentle with them that every visit is a breeze. Oh yeah and if you're little you get a toy! I could go on and on about how good they are but I think you get it. They are great and I definitely recommend them to anyone. The Julius Family
