Absolutely love everything and everybody in this dental practice. We have been going here for 15 years. Compassionate and friendly staff. I dreaded the dentist previously but this office has changed that mindset.

WORST DENTIST EVER! Come here if you want a dentist who walks away while you're talking to him because his giant ego is in the way...

I have been taking my grandchildren to this office for 22 years, Dr. Lee and Dr. Vangelis have been great. Two of my grandchildren had appointments this morning for a cleaning and I asked if I make an appointment for a cleaning, they got me in a little over a hour and saved me a forty five minute drive one way. The dental hygienists Megan, Lisa and Shannon are top of the line.

My first trip to Vingelis and Lee was the best dental experience of my life! The front desk staff were friendly and welcoming. My hygienist, Megan, was extremely gentle and meticulous with the cleaning, and had an amazing personality! For someone who hates going to the dentist, she made it painless. I also love that they have plain polish (no added flavor or color) as I am sensitive to additives. Finally, Dr. Lee was very thorough when checking my teeth, gums, and tongue. I honestly wish I had switched sooner!

I have been taking my severely autistic boy to Dr. Vingelis for several years. From the front desk to the hygientist to the doctor; this office is by far the most sensitive and caring dental office we have ever visited. I can be a very hard critic for my sons care and it is good to be treated with professionalism from the staff at this office. Dr. Kristina is so very patient with him and explains everything that needs to be done in detail. I have and will continue to refer anyone with a child or special needs adult to Vingelis and Lee Dental.

The visit was great. The people were nice and the procure went well. The 1 star review is because they gave me an estimated cost of approximately $180 but then I received a bill for approximately $700. This is absolutely bad practice. I would not have had some of the optional procedures done if I had know the extra expense. When I called to question it, it sounds like it happens often. The office should discontinue their "estimates" if they are going to be this far off from the actual cost, it's absurd.

I have been going to dr. Lee and Vingelis for years now. I am very happy with them. I trust them! I hardly ever have cavities, so usually just to get teeth cleaned. Everyone is gentle and friendly. I will probably continue to go there for years to come.

I have a son with sensory processing disorder who needs dental work. I took him to a pediatric dentist but the environment was overwheling for him. At a second dentist I found out they could not do the work all at once which would further escalate my son's response. I was delighted to find this dentist who was willing to work with special needs. As my son's response was already escalated for the dentist I asked to send xrays and chat with the doctor before I brought him in to ensure the work could be done there. The dentist wouldn't get on the phone. They suggested I bring someone else to help control him. Highly inappropriate. So although they advertise that they are willing to work with special needs they obviously don't.
