    I recently switched to Dr.Matlach's office. The front desk office staff are warm, friendly, and so accommodating. I felt like i have been going to Dr. Matlach office for years. When I first met Dr. Matlach his attention to detail, kindness, warmth, and overall concern of my health was outstanding. He has state of the art equipment which was important to me. Dr. Matlach is one of a kind. He is a true leader in his profession.

    Been going to Matlach for 5+ years after he and Ames merged practice. Matlach helped me with my TMJ problems and while they're not gone (due to other reasons outside his control), the improvement makes life so much easier and easily liveable. He is a very confident dentist and that comes from his experience. Straight to the point, no frills or pomp and circumstance. He's always happy to answer your questions before you make a decision; just be clear and concise with what you want/don't want. Dental care is expensive; a lot of folks like to blame the office on the prices when it's usually the patient not knowing how to handle their insurance policies. I was so confused by mine after being charged in full one day. I called my own plan reps and then spoke to the office staff unsure of what to do- oh my goodness did they save the day. They walked me through it, explained what they'd do on their end, and BINGO, my reimbursement came from my insurance. They're doing great with the transition to online email/contact/appointment reminders, too! I really do recommend them.

    Dr. Matlach and his team are incredible, honest, and listen to your needs as a patient. They don't push expensive procedures if it isn't medically or cosmetically necessary. Dr. Matlach and the entire team are happy to educate patients and give them the time that they need to learn and make decisions. I always appreciate that Dr. Matlach goes over xrays with me, and the transparency that this team has.

    Had a root canal. Not at all painful & very happy with the results. I appreciated how Dr. Matlach explained what he was about to do prior to each procedure. He is a dentist I feel I can trust. And the office staff is top notch!
