Dr. Virk is very good with her work. I was visiting from Canada and had missed my dental appointment there. Learning of my predicament, she promptly squeezed in an appointment for me on the Saturday past. She worked deftly and did a great job on my teeth. If you have an issue with your teeth, I highly recommend getting an appointment with her.

The dentist lied about cavities...said I had four and she proceeded to numb without explaining the process. She was rude and impatient when I asked questions. I walked out with a mouth full of benzocaine, and I'm glad I did, because I went to another dentist who determined after taking new Xrays (Lakeland refused to send them my Xrays) and careful examination, that I had no cavities.

I've been seeing Dr. Virk for several years now she is the best dentist I've ever been too. Staff is courteous and make you feel right at home (like who wants to go the dentist). Dr Virk is personable, warm and has a great sense of humor. They have always dealt with my insurance so I didn't have to. I understand she is expanding her practice and adding another high quality dentist as she is very very busy, a sure sign of a good dentist.

I saw Dr.Virk for an emergency visit. What a lovely lady, well informed and so courteous. Took care of me promptly and painlessly, explained the entire procedure and got me out of pain. I will never forget this kindness and she earned a patient for life. Office is neat and clean. Staff is friendly and great. Thank you everyone.
