I cannot begin to tell you of the wonderful experiences I've had with this office.From the moment you walk through the front door, you are family.I found the doctors and all the staff exceptional, and I haven't even begun to tell you of the phenomenal work they did on my teeth. They changed my world, not just my smile.If I could give more than five stars as a review, I would double that. I am a patient for life!

I called for an emergency appointment with a very painful broken tooth. They offered me an appointment in 4 weeks. I guess they do not want new customers.

I chose DK Dental because it was walking distance of my house, but I've been delighted that the local experience does not end there! The staff is so friendly and competent, and they recognize me and know my name during COVID after only a couple of visits! I had not been to the dentist in eight years when I came to my first appointment, but they made me feel welcome and unashamed! I even came back to get whitening trays made! I'm so glad to have found a clean, accommodating, and established local dentist. It will not be years before my next visit!

A great friendly dentist. I have always been really anxious going to the dentist but Dr. Kosek and his wonderful staff make you feel at ease and explain everything there doing to make sure you're at ease and relaxed. Thanks for always providing a great experience

I have already recommended D.K. Dental to almost everyone I know in South Bend! After receiving a poor-quality filling elsewhere, I looked for a new dentist to re-do the work. Dr. Kosek and the rest of the staff addressed the filling (the right way!) and my tooth pain was relieved. They even taught me about fillings and explained what had gone so wrong elsewhere. Their experience in the industry and professionalism put me to ease and I'm so thankful to be pain free again!

I have been coming here for years. My entire life I've dreaded the dentist. I have TERRIBLE anxiety and typically have to premed for ALL appointments. Dr Kosek has a bedside manner that I've never experienced in any profession. He makes you fee like you are number one priority as if you were his own family. The ease it provides clients like me goes above and beyond. Their hygienists are friendly, patient, caring, gentle and understanding. I will never go anywhere else. My only complaint is they do not accept Medicaid so I can't bring my daughter here. I still rate 10/10!

If there was an award for "Friendliest Dentist (and office) in America", I would like to nominate "DK Dental" for that award. Very friendly environment, professional staff, excellent care, and now the solution and answer for all of my dental needs. Highly recommend

I love this place and the staff so much! I haven't been going to this office very long but they are all the sweetest most caring people! I would recommend them to anyone! I'm so appreciative of them. When my husband was having a bad tooth ache the dentist was right there on a Friday after 5 trying to help him out.
