I had my first visit this morning with Dr. Jamie & Co. I'm still processing. It was that significantly different from any previous dental (or medical) experience. I have a lot of weird dental and medical quirks that had to be addressed. At no point did I feel like I was a bother, or too much trouble, or difficult. In fact, the opposite. My quirks were validated, confirmed, and addressed. Thank you! There really isn't much I can say that hasn't already been said. Oh - if you are concerned because it is impossible to find even the slightest negative or even less than stellar review - don't be. Brooks Dental Studio really is that amazing. Calm, enjoyable, comfortable - I felt like I was at a spa. read more

Dr. Jamie and her staff are so wonderful! As someone that has dental anxiety, they do so much to help you feel completely at ease! Dr. Jamie is extremely thorough and explains everything so well, I always feel like I'm in the best hands! read more

My review of Dr. Jamie Brooks and her team has only gotten better. To say she is thorough and comprehensive is an understatement! My care has been excellent, and she has helped me through some major events with my oral health, as well as preserving and maintaining my teeth. They excel at making you comfortable and listened to at Brooks Dental Studio, really taking time and using a holistic approach. I look forward to each visit, and I am so relaxed, with noise canceling headphones, essential oils, cocoa butter lip balm and Bob Ross painting on the TV, that I often drift off to sleep! (and I formerly had dental anxiety). The local displays of art, and tea from Mad Hat are lovely bonuses. Highly recommended. read more

I always have a great experience at Brooks Dental studio. All the staff are extremely helpful and efficient and Dr Jaime does a fantastic job taking care of all my dental needs read more

A visit to Dr. Jamie Brooks revealed I needed to have three fillings replaced - the old-fashioned, silver amalgam kind. Dr. Jamie provided excellent care - and a brighter smile - thanks to her use of tooth-colored composite filling material. The staff at Brooks Dental Studio are the absolute best at providing care and comfort while undergoing dental procedures. The office exudes a calming atmosphere, combined with the top-notch, up-to-the-minute technology one seeks in a dental practice. Truly superb oral health care. read more

I have been very happy with the quality of care and the good energy of the staff and space. I have dental anxiety and the team at Brooks has always been so kind and considerate regarding that. They aim to make you as comfortable as possible as well as super informed about all procedures/ steps they take. I highly recommend Brooks dental for anyone looking for a new dentist. read more

Brooks Dental Studio does phenomenal restoration work. I really value how my teeth are more likely to be healthy long-term. In addition, they look amazing. I also really appreciate the wholistic care with thorough cancer checks, my appliance and strategies that helps me not clench my teeth and ensuring my teeth and gums are thoroughly taken care of. The little extras like essential oils make it as close to a spa treatment as a dental visit can get. read more

wonderful staff. Jamie is a caring and considerate dentist and the strong tie to the Tacoma community and artist scene is always inspirational. I absolutely, unhesitatingly recommend Brooks Dental Studio whenever I can. read more

I went to a dentist who told me I needed 7 fillings. Then I came to Dr. Brooks and she said we had a lot of options before she added the fillings- that was almost 5 years ago! Now that she's earned my trust I felt fine when she mentioned it may be time to go ahead with the more costly preventative measures. The studio is calming. The all female staff really listens to me. They want to know whether I'm stressed or exercising, how my family is doing - because they know all of this affects my body and therefore my dental health. I've referred many people including some I love dearly who hate going to the dentist because I know they will be treated like whole people. Just call the studio, or drop in for a visit and a cup of the special happy tooth blend from Mad Hat Tea Co....tell them your story and you'll know immediately that the Brooks Team is special. read more

For me, Dr. Jamie Brooks has been a godsend. I have been a patient at Brooks Dental Studio for about 10 years. During that time, Dr. Jamie and her staff have helped me transition from being in deep denial and inaction about my declining oral health to staying generally on top of things. From the get go, Jamie helped me put together a multi-step plan for restoring my teeth/gums that included steadfast maintenance in the form of regular cleanings and home care, alongside several larger surgeries. I am still working through my plan but have been making strides every year towards having a healthy and long lasting smile, mostly due to Jamie's continued support. The care at Brooks Dental Studio is complete and focuses on patient comfort. Jamie is very detail-oriented and takes time to actually get to know her patients and their fears. The environment aids in patient comfort with its natural, calming tones and loftiness. There is even an extra special local component with the showcasing of local artist's work and serving of special blend tea from Mad Hat. Other places claim to be different but Brooks Dental Studio is the genuine article: a practice that actually cares about its patients. read more

What a marvelous experience I always have when I go to visit my dentist, Dr. Jamie Brooks. I feel like I am a treasured guest when I am there. Rather than dreading visiting my dentist, I look forward to her welcoming smile and sincere effort to make me comfortable. I feel so lucky to have found her when I moved to Tacoma area a couple of years ago and searched for new health providers. Her care for me and my health is evident in the way she thoroughly examines my teeth, gums, jaw and neck glands to make sure these have no signs of infection or other troubles. She always shares with me a couple of additional ways I can care for my teeth to further protect my health. Her state of the art equipment and cheerful assistants are additional signs of her effort to make sure that she is providing the best care possible. read more

Dr. Brooks and her staff are extremely thorough, friendly, and certainly make you feel welcome. Good focus on resolving root cause of issues. The environment is relaxing. Looking forward to my next appointment! read more

Just visited Brooks Dental Studio for the first time today and it's been about 4 years since I have been to the dentist. They were wonderful! They took time to get to know me, any concerns I had, my history. Their office is beautiful and they were so thoughtful! The whole process was painless and they even put coco butter on your lip during the process (with a qtip) so your lips don't dry out. They have me recommendations of products, never made me feel silly for questions and were great about scheduling. They even reminded me to pay for parking! I am not dreading my next visit which is saying a lot. if you have been avoiding the dentist, this is the one for you! They were all wonderful. read more

Dr. Jamie and her staff are seriously amazing! After about ten years of not going to the dentist due to some serious dental anxiety, one of my teeth broke and I realised quickly that I couldn't put off going to the dentist anymore. A google search for "dentists for people who are scared of dentists Tacoma" brought me to reviews for Brooks Dental Studio. They were able to get me in quickly, and, more importantly, did their best to make sure I was as comfortable as possible being there. The care Dr. Brooks and her staff put into everything they do is extraordinary. Their attention to detail on all levels, both personal and dental really helps me feel more at ease in the chair, and they do everything they can to help ease my anxiety and discomfort. If you're scared of dentists and that's been keeping you away, this definitely the one to visit. read more

Brooks Dental Studio offers a stellar experience. From the local tea that's offered while you wait in their comfortable lobby to the expert touch you receive in the dentist chair, Doctor Jamie Brooks and her team are all about the details. Every step in dental care is thoroughly explained. Though no one loves going to the dentist, I definitely look forward to seeing Jamie, Britton, and the rest of the team, knowing I'm in good hands and will receive the best care. read more

I have been a patient with Dr Jaime for several years and have never had a doubt about using her service. She and her team truly care about my health and not just about suggesting expensive treatment. They are friendly and fun while accommodating my dental "nerves" with kindness. Who knew healthcare could be so great?! read more

After retiring from the military I had to find a dentist. I had tried a couple before finding Dr Jamie. The first thing I noticed was her enthusiasm, she is very warm and cordial. Dr Jamie and the staff are good at getting to know you, it makes me feel like family walking into her studio. Her approach to dentistry is unique I believe, she works with you, never doing more than you are comfortable with. She explains what she is doing, what you are going to feel and really takes the stress out of everything. Entering the office they offer you tea and greet you. The staff is so nice, they take time to know how you are doing. To me that says a lot, again that feeling of family. They work to keep you relaxed. When you are finished with any work you have done, she will call you later on and see how you are feeling. The little details that aren't lost on me. Dr Jamie is someone I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a wonderful dentist. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Brooks and her amazing team. I have been going to them for three years now, and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone in search of excellent dental care. Dr. Brooks and her entire staff are personable, upfront, and excellent. Dr. Brooks does the most thorough exam that I have ever experienced from a dentist. She not only cares about the health of your teeth, but the entire individual as well. The company is also wonderful with scheduling, estimates and working with insurance. There are never any surprises financially, and they always provide you with their most accurate estimates for best and worst case scenarios. Dr. Brooks is also the most attentive and caring dentist I have gone to. I've had quite a few problems with my teeth over the years, and whenever I have had extensive work done she always calls me to check on me, and always reinforces her happiness to have me call her at any time with questions or concerns. I moved up to Kirkland over a year and a half ago, and despite Dr. Brook's willingness to provide me with her recommendations for a dentist near me, I have continued to make the trek down to see her. And for anyone who has ever dealt with 405 traffic, that should tell you something. Again, I cannot recommend this dentist enough!! read more

I've been avoiding the dentist for the past 6 years. It's not that I have a ton of fear (though I admit to being a bit of a sissy) but that I didn't have dental insurance. I knew Dr. Jamie by reputation because she is VERY involved in the Downtown Tacoma Community, hosting art shows and stuff in her awesome loft like dental studio- but I guess I always thought she would be too expensive, and even if I did get dental again I would have to go somewhere lame. I was wrong! First. I broke a tooth. Ouch. When I asked Dr. Jamie if her office had a system for working with Cash clients she was very enthusiastic and said they had different programs including one where you pay a flat amount per year for your maintenance. In the end, my teeth are going to need a bunch of work to make up for not taking care of them for years, but Jamie and her staff have been incredible. We are taking it one step a time and I am paying as we go- it's been nothing short of awesome. The highlights have been: - No shaming - I haven't been a diliigent flosser and Dr. Jamie and her hygenist really just met me where I was and we started making small changes to my routine. - They care - Seems silly, but this makes a difference. They wanted to know WHY I hadn't been going to the dentist and what I wanted to accomplish. They also treat me like a real person and have really gotten to know me. That makes the whole experience more fun. - Iphone Chargers - NEXT TO THE DENTAL CHAIR. I KNOW. It's the little things. I know this is a bit rambling, but I seriously LOOK FORWARD to going to the dentist now. And that is crazy! She's easily my favorite dentist ever. read more

I'm so happy to provide a 5-star review for Dr. Jamie Brooks. I was looking for a new dentist after neglecting my teeth for a number of years. I choose a dentist not because of close proximity or cost but because I'm looking for quality care and dental excellence. Dr. Jamie Brooks met all of my criteria and more. I scheduled an initial intake appointment after letting them know that it had been 5+ years since I'd had a cleaning (COVID etc.-the longest I'ved ever gone without such care) and gave them some information about myself and my concerns. A few days later, I received a call from Dr. Jamie herself offering me an appointment time (they'd had a cancellation) so they could see me more quickly. I was so grateful and impressed that she would take time to reach out herself. And, I was not disappointed. They got me in within a few days, and I had a long, very thorough hygiene appointment where they started taking records and getting to know my dental/health history. Then, the next day I went back for my intake appointment where additional records were taken. Dr. Jamie and her team took extensive notes about my dental and physical health, asked questions, and took images and measurements. Dr. Jamie's approach is holistic, and they offered information, made recommendations about dental hygiene and general health care that could make a difference in my ongoing health. They were empathetic, gentle (because I'm very anxious during dental treatments), and thorough. They heard me and my concerns and really paid attention. I also love Dr. Jamie's dental "studio" with its artistic, non-clinical aesthetics, style, and artwork. I'm relocating to Eastern Washington soon and will be coming back quarterly to stay in treatment with Dr. Jamie and her team. It's worth the travel and the time for me to have excellent care with a terrific dentist and caring staff. I'm so grateful to have found her. read more

Dr. Brooks and her team are awesome! This was hands down my best dentist experience ever. I had been avoiding going to the dentist for a while due to negative experiences with previous dentists. From my first interactions in the phone, I could tell Brooks Dental Studio is special. Everyone on their staff is very friendly and welcoming. I never thought it would be possible to go to the dentist and not feel a lot of anxiety. Dr. Brooks is very thorough and skilled. She's also very gentle. I really appreciate how she takes the time to listen and how hard she works to keep her patients as comfortable as possible. Her team also is very good about taking several precautions for safety during the pandemic. I also love the local art! read more

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Jamie for a few years now and we love Brooks Dental. Dr. Jamie takes a holistic approach to care and is very detail oriented and thorough. The hygienists and other staff are great as well. Cleanings are a breeze and I know I can trust Dr. Jamie and team to quickly identify and treat any dental issues that may arise. The whole office is clean and runs smoothly- appointments are on time and communication is clear and timely. They've been great with safety and cleanliness during COVID. Also, a nice bonus is that they support local businesses and are eco friendly whenever possible! read more

I have extreme dentist anxiety. I avoided going to the dentist for 10 years because of it. When one of my wisdom teeth cracked I researched dentists near me that were patient and kind about dentist anxiety and Brooks Dental Studio is what came up. I've been seeing them for about a year now and they are awesome! Jamie is very thorough and gentle and talks me through everything she is doing- it really calms my nerves. I highly recommend them! read more

I've had teeth a long time, but I've never had better experience at the dentist. The Doctor and her staff are all incredibly thorough and spoke and acted with the confidence of seasoned professionals while being kind and friendly, they still took time to get to know me and even addressed my immediate concern about a loose crown on the first visit. My teeth also looked and felt amazing after the cleaning! No discomfort and amazing care. read more

Writing now a long overdue review in total praise of Brooks Dental Studio. It's not often when you move to a new place that someone spontaneously wants to tell you about how great their dentist is and how you should go to see them but that's exactly what happened to me when I moved to Tacoma. My co-worker who referred me couldn't have been more right. Dr. Jamie and her team are amazing - I love the way she thinks holistically about how dental health fits into total health (I had also never had a dentist check me for cancer before), her dedication to cutting edge clinical practice was so impressive but equally impressive was her commitment to talking me through each step of the work she was doing. Finally I was so delighted by their entire teams connection to the city of Tacoma - you can't walk around without noticing and admiring all of the local art and I love their partnership with Mad Hat Tea! Sadly, I've now left Tacoma but would happily recommend checking out Brooks Dental to anyone who's just arriving!! read more

I highly recommend Brooks Dental Studio. The staff there is so warm and professional. Dr. Brooks is a great dentist, and focuses on dental health as a big part of over all health. I am a difficult patient, in that I experience alot of anxiety when I have to go to the dentist. Dr Brooks and her staff have been really great at working with me and helping me feel at ease. They are the most caring dentist office I have ever experienced. read more

Dr Brooks pays great attention to detail and is extremely thorough, by far the most thorough dentist I've seen! She takes her time with exams and I never felt rushed. Her office staff is professional and kind. Beautiful office as well with lots of wonderful local Tacoma art! read more

Dr. Jamie and her team are truly outstanding. They go above and beyond to ensure you are comfortable and understand each aspect of your dental care. They have addressed all my concerns from prior bad experiences and made my recent filling easy and pain-free. Dr. Jamie even called me personally that evening to make sure everything felt ok, and squeezed me into the schedule the next day to make a small adjustment to the filling. I cannot recommend this office enough. read more

I am in love with Dr. Jamie Brooks and her staff. Everyone that I met were pleasant and genuinely interested in my experience. Every need for a comfortable experience was graciously provided. read more

I have never in my life had such a thorough exam. Everyone in this office are friendly and kind. We worked out a dental plan that was easy to understand. One of the best dental experiences I have ever had. read more

If you're looking for a dentist in the South Sound area, Brooks Dental Studio is THE place to go. Jamie and her team are the absolute best! The quality of care and attention to patients here is unmatched. Jamie pays personal attention to the health and well-being of every single patient, and you can tell she treats her team well also. You don't feel like you're one of the many other people they need to get in and out of the chair that day -- they actually take time to focus on YOU and your personalized care. And Jamie isn't just in and out at the end of your hygiene appointment like other places; she typically comes out and greets you before your appointment and is checking in periodically throughout your appointment unless she is in a procedure. She and all the hygienists are very thorough and always remember your particular sensitivities, etc. Once when I had a filling done, I had some pain at the beginning of the procedure so I needed some additional numbing. The rest of the procedure went fine and Jamie was very careful, always checking in to make sure I wasn't experiencing any more pain. Later that day, Jamie personally called me to check in and see how I was feeling. That is not something you'll get from any other dentist!! I truly feel like my dental health is better than ever now, thanks to Jamie and her team. Even if you're someone who hates going to the dentist, you can't not love this place! read more

I've seen Dr. Jamie since she opened her downtown studio in 2008. She is attentive, skilled, and extremely caring. My teeth are ridiculously sensitive and Dr. Jamie & her staff take special precautions to not aggravate that. They are informative, have great personalities, and take super good care of my teeth! Tom has to see a specialist for his dentistry, but he still goes with me to the quarterly artist openings because he loves the staff and admires Dr. Jamie's commitment to local artists. She's the best! read more

My family of 4 has been going to Brooks Dental studio for several years. Every appointment has been a pleasant experience. Dr. Brooks and her staff are so welcoming, and do whatever they can to make your experience great. I tend to get a bit apprehensive about dental work because of prior experiences with other dental offices, and Dr. Brooks has really put forth an extra effort to reassure me and inform me of all that she is doing. My husband and I feel that Brooks dental studio truly has your overall health in their interests, We've never had a dentist call later in the evening after a procedure to check in on how we are doing. She goes above and beyond. The atmosphere is fabulous - a true Tacoma lover, she features local artist's work in her beautifully decorated studio. It's fun to see the rotating artwork. One tip: during the spring and summer, schedule your appointments on a Thursday, and then you can take advantage of the Thursday market days as well. :) I wholeheartedly recommend Brooks Dental Studio. read more

Dr. Jamie is absolutely the best dentist I have ever visited. She has a unique and caring dental practice. Unique in that you don't feel like a number, she truly cares about you and even provides a follow-up call on work performed that day. She designs a personal dental plan so that you know what is on the horizon concerning your dental care. The work is provided in a relaxed and soothing studio. I am one of those people who are afraid of the dentist. Not a problem with Dr. Jamie because her care is provided in a gentle manner with the utmost concern for where my sensitive areas may be. She is highly skilled and has solved all my dental issues with minimal discomfort. I have been a patient for going on five years and couldn't be more pleased with the care I receive. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Jamie Brooks. You will not be disappointed. read more

Dr. Jamie and her staff are awesome. She is the most thorough dentist I've ever been to, and her attention to detail is like no other. Not to mention she actually remembers personal details about you, which tells me she is both interested in and really cares about her patients as individuals. In addition, the office is amazing! I can't say that I've ever been to a dental office that is also an art studio. Other things I really like: cocoa butter for dry lips throughout cleanings, recommendations that are tailored to the patient, and free, beautiful postcards featuring local Tacoma artwork. And last but not least, Dr. Jamie and her staff are just really nice people! That always makes for an enjoyable visit. read more

Easily the best dentist that I have ever had. I've been a patient for a few years now and I cannot say enough good things about my experiences. Dr. Brooks and her staff are absolute pros! They are highly skilled, attentive, and truly care about each of their patients. After any procedure, Dr. Brooks calls later in the day just to see how you're doing. Dr. Brooks runs a tight ship and, as a result, the patient experience is second to none. I always feel like I'm in the loop on treatment plans, insurance issues, and the like. Even the space is a beautiful architectural space--nothing like any dentist's office I've visited. While going to the dentist is probably not anyone's idea of a fun time, the experience at Brooks Dental Studio is certainly pleasant. Highly recommended! read more

I've been seeing Dr. Jamie at Brooks Dental for many years now and the experience is beyond compare to other dental offices. The first indication that you are in for a treat is the design of the space. It is beautiful, simple and modern while being warm and inviting as well. Then you'll notice art on all the walls. Real actual art created by local artists. Dr. Jamie is passionate about art and her local community of Tacoma. So every few months there is a new art collection on display. Locally made tea to drink, and all kinds of little surprises made by Tacomans. As a patient, you get the distinct feeling the team works very well together and you are getting the most attention possible. They really strive to know you as a whole person and not just another open mouth. Dr. Jamie is a wonderful combination of fastidious and friendly. Oh, and the icing on the cake is that this practice works hard to be environmentally friendly as well by reducing their use of plastics and disposable products and offering incentives for using alternate transportation to the studio! They are simply knocking it out of the park in every category. read more

Brooks Dental Studio is an amazing office. Not only is the care extremely high, but the office in itself is an experience. Dr. Jamie and her staff helped me get over any dental apprehensions. Dr. Jamie is passionate about continuing education, technology, the community, and the environment. The studio hosts local artwork which makes the entire dental experience one of a kind. read more

I also can not say enough good things about Jamie Brooks and the team of really terrific people who help make going to Brooks Dental Studio the best trip to the dentist one could ever hope for. From the moment you walk in the door, you know that someone really cares. The look of the space itself is clean, modern and beautiful. Jamie works with local artists to showcase their work, and it is always a lovely surprise to see what amazing artists are doing around T-town. But of course what I really care about is my teeth, and Jamie so clearly cares every bit as much as I do. She has worked with me over the last two or three years to make sure that my mouth is as healthy as it can be and set me up for the long term. I had a bunch of old fillings that needed to be replaced, and a tooth that needed a crown. I hate having dental work done because I am always nervous that I'll have a bad surprise or that it'll be soo expensive, but Jamie and her office have worked with me to make sure there are no surprises and clearly do very careful, meticulous work, explain what they see going on, and always answer all my questions. There is also this "above and beyond" quality here. Jamie has helped support my long term health in ways that go way beyond my teeth. One example is encouraging me to find a primary care provider, and giving me really excellent advice and mentorship in business. I am really just so grateful to have found such an amazing dentist and person. read more

Dr. Jamie is the best, she really cares about your health and your teeth. Recently I had a bad infection, she followed up after hours and on the weekend. She got me to a great endodontist and the two of them solved the problem. Dr. Jamie always says hi even when are just there for a cleaning. The entire staff really takes pride in what they do. Go there you won't be disappointed. read more
