I am a long time patient at VIP Dental. I continue to be impressed with the Team that is there & the outstanding service that they provide their patients! A big thank you to their office Manager Tracey who has been there since my very first visit many years ago & who is always willing to help me with any concerns that I might have & to greet me with a big smile! Last but certainly not least is my long time Hygienist Sherry. She is the ultimate professional who is exceptional at her job & knows exactly how to put her patients at ease! I'm so fortunate to have found VIP Dental!

So let me begin by laying the groundwork. I had the typical tragic backstory. When I was younger I had an absolute terrible encounter with a dentist, and had near crippling anxiety about going to the dentist ever since. I was in the full belief that it always was going to hurt when getting your teeth fixed, and you just have to bear it and I was just weaker than most when it came to dental pain. Well, after MANY years, I finally mustered up the courage to visit a dentist and did loads of research before settling on VIP dental. Holy moly, am I glad I did. From the first time I walked in, I told them how anxious I was, and they were quick to help me feel calm. The staff they have is absolutely wonderful and personable. They talked me through the entire thing, and Dr. Tate was extremely nice as well. I remember them finishing my filling and being confused because it hadn't hurt. Like, at all. I thought maybe it was a fluke, a lucky break, but the next one didn't hurt either. I couldn't begin to tell you how surprised and relieved I was. I recommend them highly, especially if you have any anxiety about going to the dentist at all. They completely changed my outlook of the dentist, and I no longer absolutely dread going. I give them the highest recommendation.

I am impressed with the knowledge and skill of Dr. Kariya in doing more complicated dental procedures. I have had good results here on all my dental care. The entire staff is friendly and caring. They have just the right type of music playing as a distraction to any unpleasantry of the procedure being done. They also have state of the art equipment and a nice facility at a good location. They do make you feel like a VIP!

I am so glad I found VIP Dental! From the friendly, bubbly staff and hygienists to my new wonderful dentist, Dr. Kariya, VIP Dental is the BEST dental experience I've ever had. I had bone grafts to alleviate bone infections from two failed root canals by a local Periodontist. I was so scared to go back for dental work and Dr. Kariya (and the staff) made this a cake walk. He and the entire dental team at VIP Dental are top notch! I cannot say enough accolades to show how grateful I am to have trust in dentistry again. We've found a new dental home for our family for sure!

VIP Dental, doctors and dental team are "designers". I am 82 years young and they made 3 crowns for me (within an hour) right there in their office. Each crown was perfectly designed just for my mouth and looks like my natural tooth. Technology sure has come a long way in my day. The staff are so friendly and I love how Elaina sings like an angel (and whistles while she works). Dr. Bryan Kariya is simply the best dentist I've ever met and besides all of that, he's handsome outside AND inside. I really love going to the dentist since I found VIP Dental!

I have been going to VIP Dental for several years. The quality of the dental care and attitude of all staff has been outstanding. When I moved here from New York City I didn't have any idea where to go for care. After checking with several facilities I decided on VIP Dental because the rates were reasonable, the facility is immaculately clean, and the staff are professional yet friendly and helpful. Dr. Adam Stepniewski is excellent and at the same time caring and personable. I would recommend this facility everyone searching for dental care.

I was working and my tooth was hurting so bad and i called and they were so nice and told me to come right over and from the moment i walked in until I left they were very compassionate and helpful and professional. Even as a walk in they saw me quickly and did the procedure right then and there to help me. I didn't have a dentist yet because I just moved here and even though I live 40 minutes aaay I'm making this my dentist office! They're amazing
