Great visit (over a decade) by someone who has sensitive teeth and is not fond of going to the dentist. Dr. Achikeh has been my dentist for the last decade - we travel well out of our way to visit him and his staff of hygienists. He has a gentle touch - both in doing his work in your mouth, and in conversation with you. He cares and it shows.

As a new patient I wasn't sure what to expect and I was very pleasantly surprised. The staff was friendly, professional and polite. I have sensitive teeth and explained this to my hygienist and she took the necessary precautions to make my cleaning painless. Dr. Kingsley took his time with me during his exam and was super gentle. I am more than happy with my first visit and will definitely be back. Thank you!

Dr Kingsley goes above and beyond. He makes coming to the dentist's office not a pain, but an absolute pleasure. I'm always excited to see him and talk to him, even if it's just for a brief few moments. I'm never in the chair for long. When I've needed to have cavities filled, or need to come back for another appointment, Dr Kingsley makes himself very available, he's come in on days that he's taken off just to work with my schedule. That kind of flexibility is impossible to find and is so appreciated. He's always diligent and caring, and like I've said in my title, I don't think I'll ever be lucky enough to find a better dentist, let alone health professional. Thank you so much Dr Kingsley, you make my day every time I come in.
“An amazingly friendly, talented, smart dentist. I've never had a better one, and I doubt I ever will.”

I called Dr. Achikeh yesterday after work desperate to see a dentist for an urgent personal matter. He listened to my concern and gave me an appointment for today. As soon as I walked in I was impressed by the staff and the swiftness of getting me to the back. Since I was on time for my appointment, they were on time bringing me to the back for my exam. I have a primary dentist but after the care and knowledge that I received from the dentist and the dental assistants, I am making Dr. Achikeh my primary dentist. The care I received today probably would have taken another dentist two visits before he actually worked on the problem area. Dr. Achikeh saw the problem areas, he explained it to me, and he got to work. I'm walking out of here feeling more confident than when I walked in. I'm actually looking forward to my next appointment.
