I am a grad student at Penn state and I get the attention Dr. Younknins and Associates. The dentists have been nice and super careful with me during the cleanings. The attention, in general, is really good and the place is cozy and clean and close to campus. I have improved my oral health thanks to their recommendations. Also, the dental insurance from the university is really good.

I feel my Cleaning by Yulia was very good and my Dental Check-up by Dr Younkins was great. Both of them treated me very nice and made me feel welcome to be there. The office staff is very nice and always are welcoming!

The staff is very friendly and accommodating! Dr. Younkins and the technicians are very good with their "chairside" manner during a visit. I'm glad to be a patient.

I love Dr Younkin and all the people that work for him. Always was able to get me in if I had a problem and they were able to help me to work our payment plan so that I could have my teeth taken care of.
