Write ReviewPatient Experience with Dr. Haeri
- Tess
Great service and provided you with all information about the procedure as you go
- Rose
Had a great first appointment. Dr. Haeri and her staff were very friendly and professional. Dr. Haeri seemed very knowledgeable and provided me with more information about what she was doing than I'm used to receiving. The teeth cleaning was efficient and not too painful (I have a pretty low pain tolerance !)
- Brandon
Felt I was in trusted hands. She spoke to me knowledgeably and introduced me to a treatment plan.
- Benjamin
Best dentist I have ever seen.Honest and very professional.
Took good time and care to explain what she saw in my exam and gave realistic preventive suggestions to help keep my teeth healthy
- M. h.
I love this office, the doctor, the staff and the overall experience. Dr. Haeri takes her time with her patients and ensures you understand what she is going to do. She has been monitoring my teeth for a while and when I asked her to redo all of my old amalgam fillings, she said no we will only do that when absolutely needed because replacing your old filling can take some of your tooth away as well! I am supper happy with this Dr. And highly recommend her and the office to all.
- Jennifer
Polite and friendly doctor and staff, liked that they took time to explain things to me.
This was my first visit. Dr Haeri did my deep cleaning and filling which I prefer. She explained what she was doing along the way and was very caring and concerned of my well being and asked if I needed a break and if I was Ok. In addition she taught me some things about flossing. I would definitely recommend her.
- Michael
Fantastic experience and pain free. Totally coming back for all my dental needs and recommend to all
- Fred
Thank you for taking care of my emergency case (broken teeth) promptly. Excellent service. Really through and thoughtful dentist.
- Ben
I have had various procedures including two root canals and I am very happy with the results. Very through examination. Dr. Haeri always takes time to explain what each procedure is, how she will do it, and what to expect from it. Everyone was professional and friendly, so I will certainly be back.
