We were fortunate to be referred to Golinveaux Pediatric Dentistry by a friend. We've been visiting…read moreDr. Jay for a couple of years now, and we've been thoroughly impressed. Initially, it was challenging to get my daughter to remain still for the teeth check and cleanup, but now she eagerly anticipates her visits. Dr. Jay and his staff are incredibly empathetic and understanding towards the children. The ceiling TVs, stickers, Lego toys, and balloons provided after the visit add a delightful touch to the experience. There's a reason why he's not accepting any new patients. His extensive experience in caring for children speaks volumes, and I couldn't imagine my daughter visiting any other dentist. He has truly set a high standard. Interestingly, Dr. Jay is known to have doppelgängers who resemble Roger Federer and Mark Daigneault. However, you can decide for yourself. He is undoubtedly one of the best children's dentists in the area, and I highly recommend him!

The email, text, and call reminders are appreciated! Thank you very much!

We had an absolutely outstanding experience with Dr. Dorothy Pang, and I cannot recommend her…read morehighly enough. My child has ADHD and significant cavity anxiety, and we were in a tough spot when he couldn't be seen by his regular dentist. From the moment we arrived, Dr. Pang was calm, patient, and deeply professional. She explained everything clearly, moved at a pace that respected my child's needs, and created an environment where he felt safe enough to get through cavity fillings--something that previously felt impossible for him. What truly stood out was her steady, reassuring presence. She never rushed, never escalated the moment, and handled the situation with skill and compassion. Because of her, what could have been a traumatic experience became a manageable--and even empowering--one for my child. Huge shout-outs as well to Angie and Ashley, who were incredible. Not only were they wonderful with my child, but they also helped me stay calm and grounded as a parent. That kind of care makes a real difference. If you have a child with anxiety, ADHD, or special emotional needs around dental care, this is the team you want. We are so grateful.

Unfortunately, my experience with Children's Choice Dental Care has been worse than disappointing…read more At our most recent appointment when signing in, I was directed to sign digitally on a pad at the counter. I was given no information as to what I was signing, simply to sign. When I asked what I would be signing for, I was told "for treatment." I asked to be shown what it was I was signing, and a computer monitor was half turned towards me to show what it was. I was asked to sign multiple times, and had to ask each time what I was signing for. My child was scheduled for one filling, and one crown. They had added anesthetic to the treatment plan, which I then declined. After directing us to a separate waiting room, we proceeded to wait 40 minutes, 30 minutes past the time of our agreed upon treatment time. This despite their policy of canceling on patients who are 10 or more minutes late. We specifically set appointments with one dentist in particular, and that dentist only. We make it clear each time we schedule an appointment. When the dentist finally saw us, it was a different dentist than with whom we had scheduled. When the treatment plan was brought up, it was no longer one filling and one crown. Instead my child had been green lit for the anesthetic, as well as 3 crowns and two root canals. I declined the treatment, canceled the appointment, and canceled the next scheduled appointment. Weeks later, my dental insurance sent me a later informing me they declined the $150 payment requested from Children's Choice Dental Care for "treatment" we supposedly received that day. Twice now I have called to discuss this charge, and twice I've been told that my case was being referred to a higher authority that would get back to me. As of yet, no one has reached out to me via phone or email to discuss our case. It's hard to understand how so much can go so wrong, but I hope it's not because Children's Choice Dental Care feels comfortable taking advantage of parents who may not understand what they are agreeing to, or that the treatment prescribed is not in the best interest of their child.

Staff is so nice and accommodating. I never have issues with scheduling an appointment (an issue I…read morehad with my son's previous dentist).

She and her team have done a great job of building a positive relationship with my daughter which we believe will set her up for success as she gets older and needs to care for her teeth independently.

The office team also was fantastic to work with in coordinating her care with the orthodontist as well. Overall highly recommend!

We had Dr. Amy and she was so kind and patient with us, taking the time to answer every little question and making sure my child felt totally comfortable.

Both my kids have been going to Dr. Rothman's dental practice for over a decade. My daughter is…read morenow away at college and Dr Rothman has been taking care of her since she was in elementary school. My son has been going since he was in elementary school and he's now in high school. The staff are always nice, and the office is very clean. The office is on ground level, so there is no need to go up a set of stairs or an elevator. The dental assistants/techs are also very good with kids. Dr. Rothman's office location has plenty of nearby free neighborhood parking, although there are metered parking spots directly in front of the office. (There is literally free parking 25-50 feet around the corner of the office.). So to summarize: * Excellent Dentist, * awesome staff, * clean office, * excellent parking. Note: My daughter started going to Dr. Rothman when she was 7? Or 8? and she's now 21. My son started going around the same age, and he's now 15. I've always been impressed and satisfied with the care and treatment of my kids by Dr. Rothman. He connects well with kids, and he's a hoot to talk to. You won't regret bringing your kids to him. He's AAA+ in my book.

Dr. Han is extremely thorough, detailed, and sets the bar super high in terms of quality of care - top tier standards! The office is Immaculate and you can tell that he takes hygiene and sterilization seriously - something that means the world to me when it comes to medical care. If you're looking for a well-trained pediatric dentist with awesome credentials that offers state of the art care, come here! You won't be disappointed. Thank you, Dr. Han! p.s. Dr. Han can be very straightforward at times, but it's all in the interest of YOUR CHILD'S HEALTH AND CARE! To the people complaining, you should appreciate him being that way, instead of getting your feelings hurt.

My child's exam itself was smooth, but the dentist's behavior raised serious concerns about safety…read moreand professionalism. I recently had COVID, so masking is still a priority for me in medical settings. That's why I was shocked to see Dr. Han repeatedly enter the room with his mask under his chin -- especially when every member of his support staff wore their masks correctly the entire time. I asked him to cover his face, and he said he would "in a few minutes." He briefly masked during the exam, then removed it again during X‑rays while standing inches from my unmasked child. For a provider working in close proximity to children, this felt careless and unnecessary. On top of the inconsistent masking, Dr. Han made several sweeping, fear‑based claims about electric toothbrushes (gum recession, mold inside the handle, microplastics) without offering any evidence or nuance. These statements sounded more like YouTube talking points than professional dental guidance, and they didn't match our family's actual dental history or the excellent condition of my child's teeth. The whole appointment left me feeling unsafe and uncomfortable. My son will remain a patient here only because this is the practice our insurance covers, but the dentist's approach has seriously undermined my confidence in the care. Update: I want to clarify that my concern was not about "hurt feelings." It was about trust. When a medical provider dismisses a basic safety request and responds with inconsistent, fear‑based information, that's a breach of trust -- not a matter of tone. Parents deserve clear communication and professionalism, especially in a pediatric setting.

SO NICE HAVING A DENTIST AND ORTHODONTIST IN ONE OFFICE!…read more I came here after basically paying out of pocket at another local dentist. I was referred here by a friend from work who informed me that Park Smile took our dental insurance. I have met with both the dentist and Orthodontist here. The dental experience was one of my best. Both the hygienist and dentist were very friendly and I didn't feel rushed at all (I can be a bit chatty). The Orthodontist also gets 5 stars. I originally met with him to see about invisalign. Athough, I could have easily gotten Invisalign, he saved me time and money with braces (something I never considered doing again). Only need the top braces for 4-6 weeks and bottoms for4-6 months (way less time than Invisalign). Within a week of my consultation, my braces were placed. I really appreciated getting my teeth right to work.
