I highly recommended Dr. Keller. He is great with children and we always had positive experiences with his staff. He was our pediatric dentist for 20 years.

We love Dr. Keller and his whole staff! We are been taking our 4 kids to him since they were babies, about 17 years. They help us all feel comfortable and like we are part of a family. They have TV's for the kids to watch which helps take their minds off whatever procedure they are having. They are all easy to talk to and going to the dentist doesn't feel like a burden. It is always an exceptionally good experience for us all. I could not recommend him more!

AMAZING!! SO IMPRESSED!! A++++++++++++++++++++ This was our first visit to Dolphin Pediatric Dentistry. We were referred here by a dear, trusted family friend with 3 children of her own. Sadly, we were coming not for a routine cleaning, but because our regular family dentist (who is not a pediatric dentist) noticed some decay between my 5 year old son's teeth. Let me start by saying that Kristen was a joy to speak with on the phone when I first made the appointment. She was warm, friendly, organized and SO helpful!! When we first arrived, Kristen greeted us and my son was instantly put at ease by his surroundings. The decor and waiting area cater to children. He was informed there was a "game" room and he was hooked!! There are video games, books, tv and other activities for the kids while they wait. We were called back by Kathy who was so welcoming, accommodating, gentle and just overall wonderful. My son was captivated by the tv mounted in the ceiling and was so enthusiastic to pick his own show from Netflix. He was offered headphones, and from that point on he was distracted and tuned out. Typically, this is not ideal, but it's the perfect distraction during a dentist appointment! After an initial brief evaluation by Kathy, Dr. Keller came in. He was so kind, gentle and he put both myself and my son at ease. He examined my son's x-rays, took detailed notes and then explained which teeth were in need of fillings and which teeth could be treated non-invasively. I love that Dr. Keller was conservative in his approach in that he didn't just decide to fill all of the cavities regardless of the degree of decay. Since these are baby teeth, the cavities that are not very advanced will be treated non-invasively and watched closely. All of the treatments that were recommended to us were thoroughly explained and all of my questions/concerns were addressed directly by Dr. Keller. Once we were satisfied, my son happily hopped down from the chair and Kathy told him he could pick out a prize from the Treasure Box. His eyes totally lit up! Especially when she said he could pick 2 prizes because he had been such a good patient! She also told him he could pick a prize for his little sister (who wasn't with us at the time). Kristen was ready with our quotation including what our insurance was expected to cover. We then made an appointment in a couple weeks for my son's treatment. I couldn't be more impressed with this office, the staff and Dr. Keller! Both of my children will be coming here regularly from now on! I HIGHLY recommend this practice to anyone looking for a pediatric dentist!!

Dr. Keller provides exceptional service. My children have been seeing him for 10 years. I appreciate how well he has related to them at all of their different ages. He is kind, funny, and highly professional. The office staff is welcoming and accommodating. Kristen, at the front, is extremely friendly and excellent at accommodating our schedule. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for a family dentist!

Wonderful, knowledgeable, friendly staff. Dr. Keller is absolutely great with the kids and takes time to explain everything. Have been going here for more than five years with my kids, now 13 and 14, and can't say enough good things about them.
