Dr Strauss is very good at explaining what the problem is and walking through the steps of what needs to be done so you know what to expect. The office staff is wonderful too. Unfortunately I have had a lot of dental issues that have needed to be resolved but the team here has been kind, patient, and flexible with my very challenging schedule. I would highly recommend them.

Dr Strauss provides outstanding service. I am a 'dentaphobe' but found him to friendly, informative and a 'wizard' at his work. I compared pricing with a major national company and found Dr Straus s prices to be lower. And his follow up on all issues has been flawless.

Where to begin?! Dr. Strauss, with the help of Lyndsey, literally changed my life. Pregnancy had done a number on my teeth, and I needed dental implants for all of my top teeth, along with a couple extractions on bottom. From my initial consultation, as someone with extreme anxiety, I felt the most comfortable I have EVER felt with a dentist in my life. Dr. Strauss takes the time to explain everything he is doing, and why. He made sure I understood every aspect of my plan, and was available at any time if I had any questions/concerns at all. My surgery went great, and for the first time in 5 years, I can smile with confidence and not hide my face! They fixed my smile, and changed my life! I could not be happier with the results, and how I feel like I'm a friend and not a patient! I cannot speak highly enough, honestly. I've already recommended them to a few other mommy friends who ran into the same problems and now need implants themselves. If I could give 1000 stars, I would! Thank you, thank you, a million times over! I'm finally genuinely HAPPY again!!

I went to Dr. Strauss to have a gum graft performed for a receding gum line. Dr. Strauss and Lyndsey made the experience extremely pleasant ( if having a gum graft can be pleasant:) Lyndsey is right on the ball with everything you need for administrative purposes, she was prompt with my fmla paper work, insurance and appointment scheduling. Dr. Strauss is very kind and gentle, two great qualities in a surgeon. He explained everything in detail and there were no surprises. The procedure itself was painless, recovery was just as described. The office is beautiful and very convenient, easy free parking. My routine dentist was very impressed with his work and said it looked amazing! I would highly recommend him if you need a gum graft performed and would return if needed.

I've been very pleased with Dr. Strauss. Everything is very straightforward in his office, from the explanation to the procedure itself to the follow-up care. There's no wasted motion or effort, just a very positive outcome.

Dr Strauss is straighforward and practical. First time visitor after my previous perio retired. Dr Strauss examined my mouth, told me everything looked healthy and not to bother coming back, my dentist could track it just fine! Previously my perio would take 45 min to examine, tell me to come back next year, even though nothing ever changed. Came as a referral from several relatives and friends who have also had very good experiences w Dr Strauss. His office is punctual and organized, highly recommended!
