The Staff is amazing and very friendly. We are a family of 5 and they were very accommodating to get us all in on the same day and the same time so no multiple trips. The office was very clean and equipment up to date. Definitely recommend them if you need a new dentist in Raton :)

In excruciating pain and I can't even make an appointment with the front desk people. They are extremely unhelpful, rude and could care less about the patients. In dire need of new staffing! I have two kiddos under 3 at home and I simply needed some options that work with our schedule. I also can't wait 3 weeks for an emergency! Definitely worth the drive to Las Vegas! I've never had a bad experience with Collins Dental!

Dr. was great explaining everything that needed to be done and her assistant was also great. Walking into clinic that first none greeting from DONNA was the worst experience, smurk sarcastic look on her face. Rude

Everyone in the office was super knowledgeable and communicated well with me. I'm the type of person who likes to know what is going on and am very nervous at the dentist but Dr. Darais told me exactly what was going on with my teeth and let me know what he was doing every step of the way. I always felt very much in control of the situation. I appreciated how friendly the dental assistants were and the hygienists. Everyone was very personable without losing any professionalism. I am extremely satisfied and happy with my experience.

Glad to have a brand new dental office much closer to me now in Raton and I don't need to drive up to Colorado Spring anymore. Plus Darias and his staff were a lot friendlier than my last dental office. Thanks again
