We had an exceptional experience with Dr. Michael Bianchi and his King of Prussia staff. Our 6 year old son had two extra teeth extracted today and it was as smooth a process as I could have asked for. We initially met with his NP for a consult, but he followed up with a phone call per my request. He was incredibly informative and followed up with the orthodontist to clarify some information I was unsure about. The office staff clearly outlined our potential expenses and handled all the insurance information ahead of time and were very clear with how billing was handled. The day of surgery our son had an incredible team of medical professionals working with him. They greeted him directly, asked him questions, and talked him through things at his level. He is usually an anxious kid, but he was so brave and I contribute that 100% to their interactions with him today. Dr. Bianchi spent time with us after surgery to give me the run down and make sure we understood post-op care. I cannot recommend Dr. Bianchi and his staff enough! From the helpful front desk staff (I forgot a doc note and live an hour away, so they emailed it), to the attentive nurses and the skilled surgeon. This is a wonderful practice.

The absolute most pleasurable dental experience I have ever had. I have been here a couple of times now and each visit has been painless, thats kind of rare in the dentist chair. I never felt the needle pierce my gums or the roof of my mouth, zero pain and the drilling to place the implants, well that was yesterday and I could eat a Cheese steak today! The place is clean and the staff is great and very pleasant. Dr. Bianchi you are like a master mechanic under the hood of a 1970 Chevy Chevelle, make it purrrrr........I look forward to my next visit!

From the moment you walk in they make you feel comfortable. Front desk girls were super nice and helpful. I had a few teeth taken out and they were so nice and I felt like they cared. I was put to sleep, thankfully and it was a great experience. I'll be taking both kids here to get their wisdom teeth out purely bc of how they treated me. Take it from me, I've been to many dental places, these guys are the best!!!

The worst experience I have ever had with a doctors office. They cancelled the appointment five times in a row, had to fight with them after they cancelled the appointment the day before AFTER we paid. Then they reschedule the appointment till 8, and then make us wait an hour before they even help us. The staff is rude and unprofessional. On the phone when I complained about them cancelling the appointment yet again they say "oh well the doctor needed to change the appointment because he has a patient with cancer". Then the day of the appointment they make me wait about an hour and they give me attitude yet again. I will never go to this office. Train your staff on proper customer service and also on laws regarding patient confidentiality because they keep telling me other people's business to excuse their awful service.

Went here for the first time to get a tooth pulled due to an infection and the doctor I had was awesome. He Got my tooth out within less then a minute and was very kind and gentle. Would definitely recommend this place to others. It's kind of far from where I live or I'd go here all the time!

This place is top notch, I'm very unlikely to have any work done elsewhere ever again if it can be done here. Everyone is incredibly friendly & easy to talk to. I have pretty extreme anxiety when it comes to the dentist and each time I've been in they've all been very understanding/helpful. Highly recommended!
