I have been going to Dr Otten for years, he is the best. He is very gentle when he works on your teeth. I have had everything from fillings to crowns and I'm never in pain during or after the procedure. If you are afraid of the Dentist this is the place to go. read more

Great staff and great service . The overall experience is always 5 stars. Makes going to the dentist stress free..

NELLY who runs the front desk is an absolute nightmare. I think the dentists are busy so they have no idea what she's doing. it was the most unprofessional medical office I've ever dealt with in 20 years. She kept canceling my appointments because I didn't get a text two weeks in advance and confirm and then she wanted to charge me $50 each cancellation fee when she canceled me! You can't reason with some people and I think she comes with a lot of personal problems. I think this would be a great place if they had a different person at the front desk. Reina is lovely, but Nelly is completely crazy. read more

I've been going to Northwest General Dentistry for more than ten years. I love the place! Everyone is friendly and has a welcoming attitude. My dentist, Dr. Vakil, is the most accessible, professional, proficient, caring, and understanding dentist I've ever met. His dental work is impeccable, and he does everything to ensure my procedures are as painless as possible and exceed my expectations. My dental hygienist, Mary, is the best hygienist on the planet. She's kind, very considerate and tender with her cleanings, and doesn't stop until all of my teeth are whistle clean. I recommend Northwest General Dentistry to everyone who is looking for an amazing dentist and staff. Dr. Sena Whitaker read more

I have been going to Dr. Vakil for many years now and I'm very satisfied will continue to go there and also refer family there

Been going to NWGD for at least 10 years now... still going even though I moved 30mins away. I started loving this place because they value their patients. I never wait more than 5 mins at the front waiting area (LOVE) and everyone, in general, is very nice and friendly, even the front office. Appointments are easy to schedule and reschedule by calling. As for the dentist and tech, I love Mary! She does such a great job on cleanings. Shes not rough and will take her time to go through everything in detail. I get four cleanings a year so I'm very familiar. I've talked to both Dr. Vakil and Dr. Otten, both very very nice as well. I didn't have anything major done, except for a chipped tooth, so can't talk much too their expertise in orotho-surgeries. Only downside, knocking off 1 star, is that the office is wearing down. Its definitely got age. The ceiling tiles and carpet are stained and the equipment, although clean, are old. How about spending some money for updates to the office? I think it will bring a better experience for visitors. read more

I'm in love with Dr. Vakil and his office. His office assistants Jessica and Carrie are amazingly friendly and really nice. Carrie always greets me with a great big smile and it makes me feel very welcome. Have you ever been to the same doctor's office or dentist office for years and still no one recognizes you? Not at Northwest General Dentist. And as a courtesy, they'll call and remind you if you need your annual check-up or when you have an appointment scheduled. I also love the fact that you don't spend the majority of your appointment in the waiting room. As soon as I get nestled into a really juicy Cosmo article then the dental assistant Gloria is singing my name and ushering me to the back. Gloria is great! She thoroughly and slowly explains every step of your visit and each procedure. She also goes the extra mile to make sure you're comfortable. I was cold the last time I came in and on my second visit she had a blanket ready to go for me. Dr. Vakil himself is a very attentive dentist. During any dental procedures he's always checking in with you and asking if you're doing okay. I also have a slight crush on his voice because it's very soothing and calming compared to the piercing sound of the drill. I recommend Northwest General Dentistry not because they have fancy technology, high tech computer screens, and high priced waiting room. They have none of that. They have something way more valuable: great customer service. Dr. Vakil and his staff have mastered exceptional customer service which can make any painful experience under the drill a little bit more bearable. read more

I have been going to NWGD for at least 15 years. I have never had a bad experience there.the staff is great. Mary has been taking care of me personally for many years. She is so sweet and does great work. read more

Cindy is the best hygienist ever! She is very gentle and does a wonderful job. The whole office is wonderful. :)

I've been seeing Dr. Otten for the last 4 years and he is fantastic. In the past, I've been very anxious and nervous to see the dentist but not with him. I've had a cavity filled and it was almost painless and I've also had a crown done with him. His office makes the crown while you wait so it's all done within a few hours. I make sure to request Mary as my dental hygienist because she is so kind, gentle, and sweet to talk with. I've referred a few coworkers to see Mary and Dr. Otten and they've been very happy with them as well. read more

A little over eight years ago I was in severe need of extensive dental work and I randomly chose NWGD (they're located close to home). Going once per month, it took 1-1/2 years to achieve good dental health; no doubt that I have one of the thickest patient files in their records so I feel qualified to recommend NWGD. Dr.s Vakil and Otten are highly skilled as is Mary ("my" hygienist). All of these folks are fully aware of the fear and anxiety some people experience when going to the dentist, and knowing this, they employ (gentle) technique and exhibit personalities that people will find comforting. The entire NWGD team is super-nice and the environment is pleasingly laid-back and calming. Dr. Vakil has spent many hours on my teeth and I've never had a post-procedural issue of any kind. Having had around 30 visits total now, NWGD has been remarkably punctual at keeping appointment times; rarely are they more than five minutes late and often were ready if I arrived 10-15 minutes early. This is a noteworthy achievement when you consider... NWGD takes exceptional care of and makes provision for their established patients in good-standing (regular check-ups, keeps appointments, arrives on-time and pays their bills). If you have an emergency or incident that requires immediate attention, they will make time available to promptly attend to your need. Going to the dentist doesn't get much better than NWGD. read more

I've been a patient at Northwest General for about fifteen years, and I've always had a wonderful experience. Scheduling appointments has always been extremely easy; they are always able to see me the same week I call. I also love that they are always running on schedule, the moment I show up for my appointment, they are ready for me. I don't think I've ever had to actually wait longer than 5 minutes in their waiting room. Lately Katelyn has been my hygienist and she does a great job of talking me through my cleaning. I think because Northwest has always done such a great job with my teeth I've required minimal dental work, but the few things I have gotten done have been extremely painless and Dr. Otten and Dr. Vakil do an excellent job. This office treats you like family and is extremely professional. Even though I've moved away from this office I still make the drive to come here because I've yet to find an office I like so much and dentists I can really trust. read more

I was in the other day to get a tooth filled. I was so scared and nervous about having it done but Gloria put my mind to ease. She was so nice and comforting for me. Dr. Kevin Otten was so gentle that I barely felt the needle. As a matter of fact the whole staff are wonderful people. Gloria , Mary, Katelynn and Kristi. read more

I had a great experience at northwest general dentistry! All the employees were so nice and friendly. Mary did an amazing job cleaning my teeth and was so personable. I will definitely book with her again next time I go for my cleaning. Thanks northwest for your amazing hospitality! read more

Dr. Otten is so awesome!!! The staff here is so friendly and helpful. Scheduling appointments is always easy. They also know how to fight the insurance companies when they are trying not to pay a claim. read more

Kevin Otten is a terrible dentist. He filled a cavity for me and the filling had so much bacteria it led to a huge abscess. I had to go to a very well renowned oral surgeon to get it removed. The surgeon blamed the abscess on Otten's shoddy work. Do not go to this dentist! He will make things worse for you. Also the staff is very rude and incompetent! read more
