Dr Phil was amazing! I was so scared of getting my first root canal and he made me feel so comfortable during the entire experience. He walked me through everything and listened when I told him I felt pain. He never made me feel bad for needing more anesthetic. I will forever recommend him to my family and friends. Thank you Dr Phil! read more

This office boast pleasant and highly competent staff. Highly recommended Endodontic Specialists. 5 stars!!!!!

**Vivian!** I took my daughter in today for an unexpected root canal after already spending the morning at her dentists office. She wasn't too excited about getting numbed again, so I just want to mention how much I appreciate your attentiveness and kindness to my daughter. You displayed such empathy and compassion and I could tell it was genuinely from your heart. You rubbed her little arm as the Doc injected the anesthetic and it literally had me in tears to see a complete stranger show such kindness to my daughter! you were truly the best part of our experience and I'm SO glad I saw your name on your scrubs! Dr. Walker was also great The wait was pretty long and front office staff was a bit dry but it's Monday and I get it & the atmosphere was giving "sitting in your grandmas living room" vibes as my 12 year old daughter said but nonetheless, i appreciated the quick accommodation! Vivian I really hope you see this and know that I see you thank you again for displaying such good character and going above and beyond your responsibilities to make your patients comfortable. read more

I have visited this office twice for a root canal treatment and Dr. Walker was the best! First of all he's very gentle and takes the time to explain the procedure to you step by step so I was comfortable before and during the treatment process. He is also going to be honest with you and not upsell you on things you don't necessarily need. read more

Very fast and efficient office with little to no pain They make having a root canal easy read more

Dr. Philip was excellent. This was my first root canal, and I was terrified about the overall process. Dr. Philip made sure that I felt comfortable throughout the entire process. He checked on me several times and explained what he was doing along the way and what to expect over the next few days. The root canal was very fast and pain-free. The staff was very friendly, and I highly recommend Dr Philip and the office! read more

Incredible experience, I'm impressed. Needed an emergency root canal on a back molar that was causing a lot of issues. Not only did they get me in same day, but they made me feel so comfortable and calm once there. Dr. Cannizzaro and the assistant, Brady were amazing! Friendly, relaxed, quick and efficient. I've had teeth cleanings that hurt more than this procedure. I hope to never need a root canal again, but if so, this is my place. HIGHLY recommend! Thank you for the help!! read more

My dentist sent me here when it was discovered that I needed a root canal. Dr Hawkins was so great in his guidance and explanation of what my options were and even when I went back with a follow up he again was very honest in his assessment and letting me know what to expect. The entire staff was just super nice and down to earth. Would highly recommend if you need a root canal. read more

Good afternoon, Arizona! We take a break from our regularly-scheduled, culinary excursions for an important message about our teeth. Of the experiences we can regard from best to worst, I cannot imagine that root canals often come to mind. Or, if they do, they're just considered all-around bad -- from reclining with your mouth pried open, to the hypersensitivity of the site post-op. However, uncanny though it might be, I had the best experience at Endodontic Specialists. A previous root canal from almost 5 years ago (do a little digging, I mentioned it someplace) left much to be desired, as an unsightly fistula appeared on my gum. It was clear that I would need a root canal on the same site. I obtained my dental PPO, perused the internets, and happened upon Dr. Walker's office in Mesa. Without question, Dr. Walker and the whole staff are exceptional to work with. They provide top-tier customer service, prompt attention, and a no-nonsense approach to healthcare. From my pre-op alone, I knew I was in good hands, and I attended my root canal with confidence. The procedure itself was hassle-free, painless, and no particular aftercare was needed. Dr. Walker made timely and expert work of my troublesome gum; he was engaging (despite my limited replies of, "Mmmhm," and "Uh-huh,") as he walked me through the process. In a short order, he seamlessly extracted the offending bacteria without damaging my porcelain crown. It was phenomenal work, and in the months since, I have had no issues. Long story short, for your endodontic needs, look no further than Endodontic Specialists. They're the best in the business, and, although I have no intention to get any more root canals, I know where to go should I need one. read more

I was referred here by my dentist for a root canal and was apprehensive when I showed up, my blood pressure indicated the same as soon as I was in the chair! But have no fear you're in good hands here. From the front office all the way to the doctor, extremely professional, caring, and efficient! As I was getting my dose of anesthesia, Meaning the "shot" Kayle (hope the spelling is correct) soothed and kept me calm by rubbing my shoulder/arm during the process which i so very much appreciated!!! Dr Walker keep her in your office at all costs! She is a national treasure! Everyone, as another reviewer stated I kept on waiting and anticipating for the pain to occur but it never did, a true testament to Dr Walker's skills! read more

I just had a root canal administered by Dr. Philip Gannizzaro and I want to say that what one would consider an ugly issue was made as absolutely best by this young man. Dr. Phil (as he goes by) was phenomenal, to say the least. This professional was not concerned about time. What was NUMBER 1 on his agenda was making sure the patient was totally comfortable. For some reason, this wisdom tooth was being an absolute Pain in the ***. He spent at least 45 minutes working to get it numb. And at any sign that there was the least bit of discomfort, he stopped and added more anesthetic. In addition, his assistant Christina was great as well. Great manner in working with the doctor and patient. She was awesome. This is one of those situations in life when I hope I never see an endodontist but if I do, I guarantee you that Dr. Gannizzaro will be the first one I call. Thank you for everything. God bless you and your staff. Tim Miholich MC., M.A.Ed.. read more

First time patient and had a great experience. Had one other root canal by different dr and I can't say it went as smoothly. I kept waiting for the pain and it never came! Dr Walker has a great sense of humor as well and his staff is top notch. Highly recommend. read more

The staff was an absolute pleasure. The Doctor was very pleasant and helpful. I would recommend this office to everyone who needs a root canal. A+ in my book.. read more

Super nice staff and a great dentist. Explained everything to me. Definitely going back!

I was referred to Dr. Walker from Dr. Perez for a root canal. I was apprehensive, as I have heard so many nightmares about root canals! I was pleasantly surprised. Dr. Walker was great. The whole procedure was less than 1 hr. His assistant Sydney and the front office were wonderful, as well! Great background music, too! I felt totally relaxed! Thank you Dr. Walker and staff!!! I'd give 10 stars if I could!! read more

Friendly service! I had to have a procedure done and was a little anxious about it but they did a great job helping me feel calm and assured. Dr Walker is really nice and very experienced! read more

Literally the best experience in a not fun experience; from the music to the confidence and speed in Whcih Dr Walker works. his lovely assistant. Perfect . Can't say enough great things, pretty cool for a Canadian. read more

The best experience from Michelle with scheduling to Dr Walker who performed my root canal, I did not get the name is the sweet assistant that rubbed my arm while I was getting the Novocain shot, but that was truly above and beyond kindness. Thank you all for what you do and more importantly, how you do it. It makes all the difference. read more

Words can not describe how helpful this office was to and for me. I had been dealing with an infection/possible Cyst for multiple years and did numerous unnecessary procedures prior to coming here. Dr. Walker we all know is jam packed with patients and not once did he make me feel that he was in a rush. He was very informative and calm. The ladies at the front desk were so nice to me and assisted me so much. I suffer from extreme anxiety when it comes to dental procedures and I was able to get through the entire surgery med free thanks to the confidence they leave you with. Like I told Dr. Walker Thank you for your dedication through all the years of education to be able to assist ppl like me! Thank you to the entire team at this office in Mesa! read more

Needed a root canal for s broken tooth and was referred to Dr Walker. Was excellent in accomodating the sudden need. Was as pleasant as any trip for dental work could be! read more

Amazing work! My dentist referred me to this place just down the street from her. I was super scared, as I always am at the dentist, but the staff made me feel very comfortable. They treated me like a patient at the hospital. They were my angel nurses. When Dr Amin came in, the "nurse" was holding my hand and telling me when to breathe. I was, of course, shaking like a leaf. The Dr "popped" me three times in the cheek, and I was all numb. When I say "popped", I mean it was an electric shock wave pop flowing through my face to my freaking eyeball that made me tear up a little. (this was done by the needle of course going into my cheek) It was the craziest feeling, but relieving at the same time. I just breathed through it, and it helped. After about a min, the Dr was working his magic. In about 45 mins, he was all done, and I had like 4 canals. And I didn't feel a thing!! :) I was very pleased with the staff, Dr Amin, and the work they did. I highly recommend this place if you need a root canal done. Plus if you're a scardy cat like me, this place makes you feel comfortable. read more

Endodontic Specialists - Store front. Hard to notice, but it's there! - Endodontists Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

I had to go in to see someone for my 2nd ever root canal. Was more than willing to deal with the ordeal, to get the painful area all fixed up. My dentist referred me to this office. They were better than I might expect. Got it all done in an hour! What little pain I had later that day was gone from then on. I'd highly recommend them. read more

I have seen Dr. Miller a couple of times due to an odd feeling in one or maybe two of my teeth. I wanted to take some time before deciding on having a root canal when I had no actual pain. Dr. Miller was very good at finding out what was causing my odd feeling and gave me good counsel on what my options are. The office staff is very nice and accommodating as well. I highly recommend them if you need Endonontic treatment! read more

I had a root canal performed by Dr. Walker and his assistant and I have never before had such a professional and pleasant experience. Everything was explained very clearly. When the procedure began I felt zero, absolutely zero pain. I didn't even feel the shot of anesthesia. These folks are that good! The receptionist, Kathleen, was excellent as well! She explained all costs. I am 51 years old and have been to the dentist to more times than I would like to count. Without a doubt this was the best experience. I am actually looking forward to my second root canal. Thanks to a great team! Earl read more

1st time root canal, They took me in on short notice I got there early they got me in early. Very nice and pleasant staff, Great customer service. Felt little to no pain with the root canal. I highly recommend This office... read more

I was referred to this place to have a 3D scan of a possible fracture tooth. Over the phone we were told that we would that we are scheduled. I get there and we are only scheduled for a 3D scan and a consultation. I was under the impression the dr would do the scan and service the tooth anyway. I said ok. I get called back by the dr assistant. She does a regular x ray and then said wait for the dr. Dr comes in looks at the x ray looks at the tooth in my mouth and said yea its fracture. And asked me how I would like to go about it lol. So we talk about my opinion and he writes me a script and walks me to the front. I recieved no 3D scan and I left there know the something my dr already knew. But they had no problems Chargering my ins for x ray again. My thing is this you go there for a 3D scan and you dont get it and they charge you any. At no point was I told that they are not going to do the scan. Because if that was the case I would have left and gone back to work. I left work early for this appointment. Patients beware!!!!!!$$$$$$$$ read more

Dr Walker saw me on hours notice this morning. His assistant was super sweet and gentle with my unbelievably sore teeth. I didn't know I needed a root canal because I am in the process of cosmetic dental work and thought it was just me grinding my teeth. The appointment was 1 hour. The speed and efficiency with which Dr Walker worked with was simply awesome. He absolutely is THE BEST Endodontic dentist I have ever seen. He truly cares about your pain level and makes you feel very confident in his work. The ladies at the counter were all very sweet and positive. I highly recommend this office to anyone who is apprehensive about seeing an Endodontic dentist!!! read more

I saw Dr. Walker for an evaluation per my general dentist recommendation for a possible root canal. Unfortunately one was indeed needed. Thankfully however, I couldn't have been in better hands. Dr. Walker & his staff were extremely professional & personable. Took great care of me through the whole process, answered all my questions, & provided reassurance of availability if there were any problems after the procedure. Very much appreciated & recommended! read more

After enduring excruciating pain in a molar and visiting my dentist, he recommended having Dr. Walker evaluate my tooth. I was very fortunate that I could get in the same day. Dr. Walker and his staff were very professional and kind. The molar required a root canal which Dr. Walker completed quickly and precisely. After he had inspected the post-X-ray, and because I believe he is a perfectionist, he also took a 3-D Scan to be certain he had not missed a thing. That was very reassuring to me! He is an expert professional and his staff is also. You are in great hands when you need their services! read more

Highly recommend!!! Had to get a root canal before Christmas...not how I wanted to spend the time. My dentist recommended Endodontic Specialists. I trust his judgment and made the Appt. This was a very comfortable experience! The office staff is fantastic, so was the dental assistant and, of course, the Endodontist! Everyone was so nice, they explained everything about the procedure, answered all of my questions, and it made what I thought would be terrible, a good experience with no pain! On top of that, I found out that many of the staff have been there for many years and their rapport with one another and their patients shows. They are a family and take care of their patients the same way. Thank you to all at the office! I highly recommend! read more

This was my first dental surgery since having my wisdom teeth pulled 50+ years ago, and I wasn't sure what to expect. Dr Walker and his assistant Syndey walked me through what to expect, and the procedure was done sooner and with far less stress than I had expected. Although I hope to never need their services again, I wouldn't hesitate to go back to them or to recommend them to others. read more

They were honest and authentic which I really appreciated. Dr. Miller was wonderful in assisting me.

Sooo... I myself have been in the dental field longer than I Like to think about. I am a Dental Hygienist and our office has referred patients to Dr Walker and associates for a while. I hear good things from my patients, but now I know absolutely from personal experience. I am very sorry to say that yes... a dental hygienist actually needed a root canal (I guess we are not so perfect after all). Everything about this office is spot on what you should expect from a caring, superlative group of people who care about what they do. The front office staff is genuine and warm. Everything is explained and they treat you with courtesy and professionalism. The assistants are skilled and confident. they put you at ease, at once. clearly they are well trained and experienced. And the doctor is simply, not merely, the frosting on the cake. Kind, caring , skilled , professional - all complete in one great doctor package. So go here, You are crazy if you don't. read more

Got a root canal here using the gentle wave, almost 15 hours later there's NO pain. Obviously sore while chewing but it was a seemingly painless procedure, the staffing is so friendly and I would HIGHLY recommend Endodontic to any of my friends and family!! read more

Well it's never fun to have a root canal ..... But it was a great experience . Would recommend to friends and family ... read more

My root canal was fine but be careful with the information they give regarding your insurance. They first told me they were in network for my insurance and that my insurance did not provide ANY coverage for the procedure. I knew this was wrong and begged them to take copies of my insurance. I was in so much pain I went ahead with the root canal but knew I would be calling my insurance. Turns out I was right, I did have coverage. I had to get my insurance on one phone and call the office, finally they believed that my insurance had coverage. They billed my insurance and they were out of network. I will not be retuning to this office. read more

I was referred by my dentist who no longer performs root canals. From the moment I called to make my appointment, until the moment I left after the procedure, the experience was A-rated! I called and had an appointment set up within a week. Rebecca called me within 24 hours with my out of pocket quote after insurance, so there were no surprises or hidden costs. Sharon has to be one of the best, sweetest dental assistants I have ever encountered. She loves her job and her patients and she shows it! Dr Walker was friendly and professional, very knowledgeable and skilled and the procedure was almost painless (It was the Novocain shots that hurt, nothing else). It lasted an hour but felt like less. They also do the GentleWave procedure here, and although my case didn't quite qualify, it sounds like a good option. All in all a great experience (as far as a root canal can be called great). read more

This was one of the most painless and peaceful dental experiences that I've ever had. I had a root canal done and fell asleep in the chair while he was doing it. Considering I'm a person who usually sweats the entire time a dentist is working on me. I never even felt the shot that he gave me to numb my mouth. Dr. Miller was careful and you can tail he genuinely cares how you feel during the process. Will definitely use them again if necessary read more

Saw Dr. Cody Heslington for a root canal. Awesome experience. He took time to talk me through options, the procedure, so I felt comfortable. When he gave me the shot, which is one of the worst parts of a root canal, I almost didn't feel it. He let me know how far we were through the procedure. I felt totally comfortable with him doing the procedure as well as the whole staff who assisted. You are in good hands in this office and with Dr Heslington. read more

I was terrified to get a root canal after all the horror stories I had heard. But I was in terrible pain and needed help ASAP. I went in and saw Dr. Gillan. He and his team were so nice to me and reassured me that everything would be just fine. He was calm throughout the whole procedure which helped me calm down as well. He was very thorough, starting out with a few tests (cold sensitivity, etc.) on my teeth and an x-ray to make sure a root canal was indeed needed. He numbed me up good and went to work. It was uncomfortable of course but it did not hurt. They did mine in two phases. First visit they cleaned everything out. Afterwards my jaw was sore but the tooth didn't hurt anymore which was such a huge relief. The place where he put in the Novocain was actually more sore than the tooth itself. I did take a few ibuprofen the first couple days after but I certainly did not feel the need for prescription pain meds. A little over a week later I went back for round 2. This time he filled the roots. Again, it was not painful just a little uncomfortable. My jaw was sore again and the area was a little sensitive for about 2-3 days afterwards but now I'm totally pain free! If you need to get a root canal, trust me, they aren't as bad as you think. And go to Dr. Gillan because he will do a great job. read more
