I wish I can give Dr. Fishman and his team more stars a Dr that actually cares about his tiny patients. Treats my girls like family! Even when I found myself frustrated with my girls today. He understood and always kept a smile on his face. He will exceed expectations. Not to mention the sweetest with his staff I always see him treat his team as equals. My first born had a bad experience at a different dentist and Dr. is so patient with her. If you are thinking of taking your little ones here don't hesitate.

Honestly, I loved this place. It was my first time taking my son who just turned 4. I didn't want him to have a bad experience for his dentist visit. I read the reviews for this place and decided to book an appointment. I'm very happy I did. The ladies were so nice and friendly and made my son feel comfortable. He did what he was told and everything went great. The doctor was very nice and knowledgable. I'm very grateful for individuals like him who work with small children. Anyways, I am very happy that my son was happy and had a good experience for his first time at the dentist. That is all that matters to a mom. <3 Thank you again and see you again in 6 months.

My son has been a patient of Dr. Fishman since he was 10mths old (yes. I was that mom) and well before he opened his private practice. Since day one, Dr. Fishman has always been extremely caring, patient and and overall great in taking care of my son's teeth. He definitely takes the time to not only get to know your child, but you-the parent- as well. My son is now 16 years old and I dread the day when he will no longer be his dentist. His staff is also amazing! Seeing that some have followed him from his previous employment to his private practice speaks volumes! If you're on the fence about choosing the "right" pediatric dentist for your child, please look no further and go with Dr. Fishman! Both he and his staff will take amazing care of your child and you.

Thank you Dr. Fishman for the great care you showed my 4 year old daughter. I was so nervous knowing that my baby girl was going to be sedated for a procedure. From the moment we walked in the office we were treated like family. Dr. Fishman took extra time to set my mind at ease. He explained the procedure step by step at which point my baby girl took a staff member's hand and walked into the procedure room. A warm blanket was offered to my baby girl. My daughter choose to keep the blanket as my wife and I waited in a warm and kid friendly waiting room. I will never forget how at ease I felt When Dr. Fishman updated us after the procedure was done .Later that evening Dr. Fishman called us from his personal cell phone to check on my daughter. What a great Dr. and a great person. The staff was professional friendly and attentive to all and any needs we had. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!

(Translated by Google) Excellent place. My daughter is 5 years old, and was diagnosed with Autism and for me it was an odyssey to find the right Dentist and to explain in detail the procedures and the best for your daughter. They are very careful with children and treat the way they don't get nervous. I am fascinated with their services and recommend them with closed eyes. It is an excellent clinic. The doctors and their staff are very professional. Congratulations Dr. Fishman. Blessings (Original) Excelente Lugar. Mi hija tiene 5 anos de edad, y fue diagnosticada con Autismo y para mi fue una odisea encontrar al Dentista correcto y que te explique con mucho detalle los procedimientos y lo mejor para tu hija. Son muy cuidadosos con los ninos y tratan la manera que no se pongan nerviosos. Yo estoy fascinada con sus servicios y los recomiendo con los ojos cerrados. Es una excelente clinica. Los doctores y su staff son muy profesionales. Enhorabuena Dr. Fishman. Bendiciones

Great place for kids! The office is very clean and modern with a great waiting area for little ones. The staff was very friendly and great to talk to. Dr Fishman was very patient, especially for it being our sons first dentist visit at 17 months. He answered all our questions, not once did we feel rushed or that we couldn't ask questions. I'm so happy we found this little gem around the corner from our house! Would highly recommend!

Thank you, Dr. Fishman for such great care and knowledge. Friendly staff and amazing service! I was so nervous about having my 5 year old son getting sedated to fix his 6 cavities. But Dr. Fishman thoroughly explained the procedure and took his time to set my mind at ease. During the procedure, the staff treated us like family. They made my son feel comfortable and safe. Although I had to wait in my car during the whole procedure (COV-19) I am forever grateful to be next to my son when he opened his eyes and saw me there standing by his side. Great planning and timing! Dr. Fishman called in the evening to check on my son's wellness. We also got a postcard with staff's signatures and a note from Dr. Fishman! Such wonderful people! Hopefully my son will not need the "Spider-Man Juice" for a long time. Thank you all: Dr. Gipson, Rachel, Marisela, Jackie, Irma, Christine, Danina, Rosana, and Dr. Fishman

My kiddo saw Dr. Fishman last year on April 2018. I rarely have time to review but I always told myself I would for Dr. Fishman. That's how incredible he was. I was deleting my old voicemails and I heard his voice, checking in on my little girl making sure she was doing well. Who does that nowadays??? I was so impressed with his skills and his bedside manner. I was first referred to another dentist really had me just disgusted that I told my primary dentist. You have to refer me to someone else. That's when we saw Dr. Fishman and my 6 year old said. "Mommy, so we going to see the good doctor from now on, right? She called him that. Lol. You will be totally impressed with his whole staff.
