I tried 2 other dentists in town and neither of them could compete with Dr. Martin. The moment I walked into the clinic, I was greeted by a welcoming environment. The staff at the front desk were friendly and attentive, reassuring; I felt at ease from the moment I arrived. My experience at James Martin's clinic exceeded my expectations. When I first met Dr. Martin, he made me feel like I was talking to an old friend. Our conversation completely put me at ease, and I felt my anxiety diminishing. The combination of a great dentist a pleasant atmosphere, great staff, and high-quality care made my visit stress-free and even enjoyable. The aftercare was also great. They called the same day making sure that I was doing ok with another phone call the following day to check in. I would highly recommend James Martin DMD Dental office to anyone seeking reliable and compassionate dental care.

I had negative experiences at all of the others, including one that is considered one of the most respected oral surgeons in Boulder.

Dr. Martin and his staff are incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, kind, and trustworthy. You are in good hands here.

Enter Lafayette Dental Excellence. Dr. Leo, Jane, Mary, and Barb are everything I'd hoped to find, but never thought I would. Dr. Leo excels in the traits I value most in a dentist: patience, attention to detail, and outstanding knowledge of the most up-to-date advances in dentistry - in addition to foundational knowledge from experience, of course. Oh and, of equal import, compassion for my terror of anything remotely related to dental issues. Dr. Leo's assistant, Jane, could not be more kind and efficient. Mary, the office manager, is incredibly knowledgeable as well, so kind (must be a prerequisite for the office), and just fun to talk to - even in the midst of a painful dental emergency. Finally, Barb, my very first introduction to the office when I called, is warm and engaging. She sold me on giving the office a try, and I am so glad I did. Highly recommend this team.

Molly was fast to set an appointment for my dental emergency assessment and also set a possible treatment appointment to make sure that I had a secured time to fix my dental emergency. Dr. Schafer was fantastic with her overall chairside care!!! Dr. Schafer and Nicole chatted with me throughout the appointment and kept me informed of next steps in the procedure. I never felt the initial shot for numbing and even having the temp crown made was painless. I felt very included in my appointment (which can be very rare when you see the dentist). The entire team is kind, thoughtful, encouraging and really make you feel at home! Thank you Colorado Healthy Smiles team! I am glad that I found you all!

We flew him home the next day, and the doctor met us at her office after hours on a weekend to assess him and help manage his pain. The result was nothing short of magical. Dr. Schafer is a true artist, and her kind, confident demeaner made a traumatic experience less terrifying. True to her word, my son's beautiful smile was (temporarily) restored within the hour. I have always known she is an amazing dentist, but this experience really showed her artistry, professionalism, and genuine kindness. I wouldn't go to any other dentist, and neither would my son! He will be flying home for follow-up treatments to restore his smile permanently. Thank you, Dr. Schafer. You truly are the best in the business.

The whole process from check in to check out was a breeze and I don't mean quick. She is thorough. From the minute I gave the front desk his name they immediately started to talk to him as though he was the patient (because even though he's only 5, he still is!) and genuinely cared to hear his responses. I loved the decor and the branding. As a Creative myself i can tell she really took the time to utilize her branding as an EXPERIENCE. Upon check in they gave him a basket to carry throughout the whole process. They gave him tokens at each "event" like after he got his Xrays taken... and the after cleaning... so that he would be able to purchase something toward the end of his visit. LOVE THIS. It kept him engaged and worked hard to pay attention and cooperate through the visit (THANK YOUUU) From the X-ray tech treating him as though he was at Disneyland (no joke about that) to their mascot taking a snooze right next to us... to the canoe chairs they lay in... to the TVs they can watch while getting their teeth cleaned... I mean I could seriously go on!! My son thinks this place is a vacation and is begging me to go back Yes, take your little one here even if you have to drive a bit to get here (like I do!) you won't regret it.
