Great man, even better practice. He got me in faster than I thought possible and was professional, straightforward and accommodating. 10/10 would recommend to just about everyone.

I had a root canal today performed by Dr. Gilbert and I can't express how happy I am with how everything went. His staff is so nice and one even walked outside & waved her arms when I was having trouble finding the office. I was so nervous beforehand but Dr. Gilbert & his assistant were very patient and comforting and really helped me to calm down. I've had many dental appointments over the years and was always given way too much local anesthetic causing me to be numb for many hours, sometimes late into the night, but Dr. Gilbert gave me just enough so that I didn't feel any pain at all and the numbness wore off pretty quickly after I left. I can't believe how scared I was before the root canal because it ended up being one of the easiest dental procedures I've ever had! Dr. Gilbert & his staff are truly amazing!

I came to this office in so much pain! Not only did they get me in fast, but he and his staff were so incredibly compassionate and understanding towards me. He was very gentle, quick and professional. And most of all,, he made sure I didn't leave in pain. My co workers couldn't believe i came back to work after a root canal. I would recommend anyone in need of a root canal to get an appointment with Dr. Gilbert!

I cannot say enough nice things about this doc and his office. I have terrible dental anxiety! He was so wonderful and actually listened to my concerns and my history. His office lady, Dureza, was also very kind and efficient. I listened to her answering the phones and boy does that woman work! I would recommend Dr. Gilbert to anyone needing endodontist services! A kind Christian man with genuine compassion can be hard to come by.

It was worth the hour and a half drive! For my first root canal I didn't feel a thing. Dr Gilbert knows what he is doing. Excellent job I'll drive there again for my next one :) -Spencer

If you need a root canal this is the place to go. Called on a Thursday at 4:45 talked to Layla and said she would call me back on Friday, 4 minutes later she got all the info i needed and put my mind at ease. Sometimes its hard for company's to even call back! She was great! Doctor Gilbert was friendly and even joked around a little bit. (I have to have humor it breaks the ice) Did not feel like i was in a dentist office at all it was great. Thank you guys and gals couldn't have asked for any better. This is 100 percent honest review. Amazing

I was beyond impressed with Dr Gilbert and his staff. He was gentle and compassionate, as well as, knowledgeable and thorough. The entire procedure (root canal) took less than 45 minutes. It was as painless as a root canal could be. Upon leaving the office, I was unable to get my car started. As I waited for AAA to arrive, Dureza, the office manager came out to move her car. She and Christy managed to produce some jumpers and boosted my car for me. They took time from their busy day to help a stranded patient. I will return to this office should I need an Endodonist in the future. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Gilbert and his staff to family and friends.

A few years ago, I had teeth knocked out and I saw Dr. Gilbert. He was very professional and thorough on his explanation. He recommended that I not do a root canal and helped me find a better option. Being a root canal specialist, he ended up not being able to help me any further, but I totally respected his knowledge and honesty. He showed a lot of integrity when many people would have offered up the root canal right away even if they know better options exist. Even though he was not able to help me any further, I have a ton of respect for Dr. Gilbert and his staff and will recommend him to anybody that needs a root canal.
