Dr. Oliver was recommended to me by a coworker after my dentist told me I needed 4 crowns for a small chip in one of my front teeth. 20 minutes after meeting Dr. Oliver, my tooth was fixed, as good as new, with zero pain, and it cost me a $47 co-pay. I could not have had a better experience. Dr. Oliver is clearly a knowledgeable, experienced clinician who cares about doing what's right for his patients, not his bottom line!

I've been going to Oliver Dental Associates for many years and have nothing but great things to say about them. I've been treated by most of the team and have found them all to be professional and highly skilled. They are also a really friendly group and you can tell they have a strong camaraderie and culture at the practice. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a full service dental practice.

I have had three cleanings with Irena at Dr. Oliver's and have nothing but positive things to say. Irena is so nice and is very gentle when working in my mouth. Dr. Oliver is also a pleasure and thankfully I have never needed more from him than a quick final look at my teeth post-cleaning.

All the dental work I received from this clown had to be replaced by the VA. My daughter already needs another crown. Overpriced, poor technique.

Dr. Oliver has been my dentist for going on 30 years now. Which means I've had to have plenty of dental procedures - from regular check-ups to root canals to crowns to fillings. The office is equipped with air filters and the newest and best technologies for dental care. It's changed a lot over the years and this office is staying up to date. Staffed with people who are good at what they do, there are plenty available for routine care. And Dr. Oliver always comes in to check and answer any questions you have. He reminds me of my favorite mechanic, who would say: "We should keep an eye on that, but no need to do anything now." Always appreciated that!

This is a great dental practice! I had been looking for a good dentist for years, and was so happy when I finally found one. The staff is very professional, they do such a great job on your teeth and are very pleasant when speaking with you. I truly appreciate how understanding and non-judgemental they are about any concerns you may have about the condition of your mouth or teeth. I wish I had of found this practice years ago. Kudo's to the Entire Team!

It's hard to like going to the dentist but not with Dr. Oliver. He always explains what he is doing and why. One never feels pushed into any unneeded procedure. I'm always feel confident in his care. Dr. Oliver is the best and his staff always friendly and accommodating.

I have been seeing Dr. Oliver's team for 14 years, and am consistently impressed with their services. Denise is my hygienist, and she is wonderful - very careful with cleaning and always encouraging with how to improve dental habits at home. She, and the office as a whole, enjoy finding ways to innovate care for a better patient experience. Dr. Oliver is very attentive and makes sure to check in with me at each visit. I recommend Dr. Oliver's office very highly and without reservation
