Matt Herrington has been my dentist for several years and is a great dentist. He has been thorough, helpful and done excellent work on my teeth as well as my husband's and two kids. I highly recommend him and his office. read more

Dr Herrington is kind, patient, and compassionate. My 89 yr old mom needed a new bridge and Dr Herrington took the time to explain everything that needed to be done and went above and beyond trying to create the perfect bridge for her. He always made her feel comfortable and intently listened when she had any concerns. His staff were just as kind. read more

I came into Dr. Harringtons office with a project mouth, he took the time and patience to examine my case, explain to me how to care for my oral heath moving forward, and proceeded to do an AMAZING job and rebuilding my teeth from extensive cavity and gum disease damage. I will always recommend him to anyone I know and would go back in a heart beat if I had more concerns. you're in great hands if you choose to go here for dental work. read more

My entire family (including adult children) see Dr. Matt Herrington to take care of their teeth. He continues to be the best dentist I have ever seen except maybe his dad who was also wonderful. i trust his advice implicitly. I have never been pressured to get extra treatments or procedures. The office staff is cheerful, welcoming and efficient. What more could you ask for? I am grateful that Matt is much younger than me so I will never have to look for another dentist again. read more

Dr. Matt's kind and caring manner is evident as soon as you meet him and in every association with him. He listens, gives professional advice suitable for your situation taking into account your personal circumstances. Thankfully, he's also an excellent dentist! His office staff and hygienists are tremendous as well. As someone who has not been a fan of going to the dentist from a young age based on a not so great experience, Dr. Matt's office makes going to the dentist about as enjoyable as it can be. :) read more

I had a crown put in by Matthew Herrington on Monday, March 20. I must say, for something I was dreading, I couldn't be happier with the care and concern from him and his assistant! Sorry, I don't remember the assistants name. Two and a half hours there for the procedure. A lot involved for this procedure. Couldn't be happier with the procedure and results! Thanks to both of you! read more

Dr. Herrington's staff is considerate and professional. They are great at keeping track of needed services and keeping the client informed. They are very flexible and understanding of my situation as my mother is a long-time client who know has dementia. I am confident in the excellent care mom gets everytime I take her. read more

Great practice all the way around: the front desk staff is efficient and helpful; the hygienists do a great job; and Dr. Herrington is skilled and has a wonderful chairside manner. He talks through everything with me and helps me to make informed decisions about next steps. He is definitely not a procedure-pusher or up-seller. read more

When I was small, my brothers and I would rummage through the toy chest after an uneventful dental appointment. We'd ignore the "one toy" rule and take as many as our five fingers could grab. Not sure why we allowed our morals to lapse, maybe we thought we deserved it after the torture that I associated with the dentist. Even with no cavities, the hygienist and dentist loved to berate me for not flossing. Well, now I've had the pleasure of being a patient of Dr. Herrington's for years. Last December, Ned Herrington turned over the reigns of his practice to his very capable son Matt Herrington. While I've only had two visits with him, it seems like he's continuing the traditions of his father and treating the patient with the outmost respect. My hygienist is the reason I go there, though. She's great. She's kind, patient, and very serious about her job (but has a sense of humor). The new computer system that helps the team make electronic charts is really effective. They can show you where you were last time and where you are today. This is great feedback for getting me to brush better and concentrate my flossing agenda. Only downside; they aren't part of my network. Still, their bills match what my network will pay. How's that for smart? If you're in the need of great dentist and don't have the desire for all the fancy distractions (cds, ipods, or DVDs) that other dentists need to take your mind off the pain, try out Dr. Herrington in Lafayette. You'll be happy you did. read more

Dr. Herrington is an amazing dentist. He is the only dentist that has never hurt me. He take his time and is patience about his care. He has done alot of work in my teeth, especially my front teeth. I love him. His staff is very nice and incredible professional service from all of them. Sincerely, Thank you. read more

I have been going here for years. I started with Matt's Dad and now Matt. Everyone here could not be nicer from the women in the office right up to Matt. I ran into Dianne at a grocery store before Christmas and she recognized me, even with our masks on. During my last visit I was lucky to get Dianne again. Thank you to everyone in their office for their kindness! read more

Matt and his staff are the most friendly and welcoming people I've met in a dental office. After my dad retired from dentistry I tried about four different dentists and always felt the hard sell. I always felt like they wanted to pad my bill with services I didn't need. My dad referred me to Matt with only good praises. Matt is kind and professional . He has the old school integrity but is a younger dentist ( younger being mid 40's) which I feel is rare in most offices. His office staff has been so amazing and incredibly helpful going beyond what I would ever expect. My kids also loved the Office staff and the dental hygienists too. So if you're looking for a talented , kind, gentle and honest dentist I highly recommend read more

I have thought about this long and hard. Perhaps something was lost in the translation when they were explaining to me how the billing is done or how generally the things are done differently in this office than in any other I've been in. I've been here twice. I went the first time to get a basic teeth cleaning. They did a thorough exam, and charged me $110. They did NOT clean my teeth, and I walked away feeling something didn't seem right. Second visit was about a year later (due in part because of work). I went in, we talked about the procedure they were going to do. I paid $140 before the procedure. I got my teeth cleaned, and he fixed a filling. While he was fixing a filling, he said there was another tooth he wanted to fix while he was in there. I didn't have much of a choice since he was already in there. After that visit, they wanted to charge me WAY more then what we had previously discussed, in part because of the "extra" work he had done, that we didn't discuss. I was sent a bill, and I requested a copy of what we had agreed on for the original procedure, and I never got that. I was disappointed to say the least. Even more so when they sent that bill to collections. Two thumbs down for sure on that move. This review is based on both visits. read more

Glad to see it is not just me. Wow. I was initially blown away by the great yelp reviews. In fact, that is why I decided to try this dental office. At least I am not alone. Stay away from this office. For your teeths sake. Stay away. read more

Dr. Herrington is a fantastic dentist - believe me I've been to a LOT of them in my 30 years and I've never had anyone so thorough yet gentle and really polite about having to move my head around and so forth. The chair I was in was hydraulic so absolutely silent - a nice touch! Matt takes the time to explain - in detail - everything he's doing, why he's doing it and even the science behind it. You can tell he loves his job. He's really great to his hygienists and its clear the respect goes both ways. read more

Matt Herrington is the best dentist in the world! Everybody who works there is as nice as can be. My family feels blast we are in good hands! read more

Honest, professional & efficient. Provided more technical background information on the state of my oral health than I wanted to know.

Matt Herrington is a genuinely nice guy. He also happens to be an excellent dentist. He is careful, explains what's happening as it happens, and takes great care to keep it efficient and comfortable. read more

I've been going to Matt for years and he is terrific. He does not overcharge. He is highly skilled, a great communicator and a perfectionist. His staff are friendly, helpful and they really understand how to work with the insurance companies so I don't have to deal with them at all. read more

Dr. Herrington has been our family dentist for 2 years since moving to Lafayette. He has treated our son (and us all) with kindness, dignity and respect. He is gentile while doing a magnificent job. I went in for an exam and a cleaning -- I never experienced a level of scrubbing like THAT before, wow (wow!). Both the hygenisist and he go at it. Seriously clean in a way that puts others to shame and I greatly appreciated the time, attention, and hard work they put in. Clean. He has been honest (we had some diagnosis from another dentist for work that turned out to not be necessary) and it is very, very clear that Dr. Herrington has only our best health in mind. He also takes lots of time to listen, and he explans things very clearly (I actually appreciate the education I've gotten). We are so very disappointed that our insurance has changed and so we will not be able to remain in his care. I would recommend him to family and friends without hesitation. read more

review a dentist? You must be kidding! My visit was fantastic. The entire staff was awesome. The billing was a breeze, same as my previous dentist. Dr. Herrington loves what he does. Explains everything as he goes along: courteous, professional,punctual, knowledgeable, and very intelligent. And get this. I recently saw him at church. We discussed an issue. When I got to my computer the next morning, boom! an email from him with the information. And 2 days later, a followup letter with the info. What??!!? Unheard of these days. Matt is a keeper. read more

My whole family goes to Dr. Herrington. Polite, professional, and a perfectionist, he is the best dentist we've ever had. He took great care of me when I had two of my crowns done, checking on me the next day. When my husband had a filling pop out, he saw him the same day over his lunch hour. His office and staff reflect his high standards. We are so glad that he is younger than me and my husband, and he can take care of our dental needs through our golden years! read more

Really great office. The staff is wonderful. Dr Herrington is so nice. Easy parking. The cleaning appointments are booked out so make your appointment after you finish your cleaning! Only thing to note: office is now closed on Wednesdays! read more

I'll never postpone going to the dentist again. New to the area and dental-phobic, I dreaded this first visit even though Dr. Harrington was highly recommended. From the appointment phone call through the visit (The dentist himself does the initial cleaning!) I was reassured and relaxed, and received excellent care and advice. read more

Matt Herrington is a great dentist. Very kind, patient and truly cares about his patients especially the ones that are scared to be there. He and his staff are very welcoming and comforting and do there best to meet all their patients needs. read more

Matt is a smart and honest dentist. When I first moved to the east bay, I saw a different dentist. Every time I saw that dentist, she told me I had multiple cavities. After this happened for the 4th time in a row, I came to Matt for a 2nd opinion before getting yet another filling. He told me I didn't have any cavities but that I had a crack in a different tooth and recommended that I get a crown. I guess my previous dentist missed that! He told me if I didn't get a crown, the crack would grow and I would probably lose the tooth. I didn't know who to believe at that point so I did nothing. Well, fast forward a year or so and the crack grew and became painful just as Matt predicted and I did need to get it removed. I should have listened to him!! The cavities my previous dentist said I had still don't exist. My whole family sees Dr Matt now. He's done a crown for my husband and is great with my young kids. read more
