I can't say enough good things about Iowa City Dental Clinic. I called with a dental emergency…read moreafter cracking a tooth, and the pain was intense. To make matters more stressful, it was a Friday--when many dental offices aren't even open. They answered the phone, took my situation seriously, and got me in to see a dentist right away. It turned out I needed a root canal, and they went above and beyond by getting me an appointment with an endodontist that same afternoon. The coordination and urgency they showed made a huge difference in what could have been a miserable experience. I should also mention that we were brand new to Iowa City and hadn't even established care with a dentist yet. We had just moved from Sacramento, where we loved our longtime dentist and honestly didn't expect to find comparable care so quickly. Iowa City Dental Clinic exceeded my expectations. The care was not only excellent, but genuinely compassionate. In addition to treating me, they provided excellent referrals, which helped me quickly get top-notch follow-up care here in Iowa City. I'm incredibly grateful for how they handled everything during a stressful situation. Highly recommend this clinic--especially if you need urgent care and want to be treated with professionalism, kindness, and efficiency.

I am a…read morerelatively new patient, but all of the reviews I read before going to her office agree with my experience. I needed a crown in a reasonable amount of time, as my dentist at the UI was scheduled out for months and I had had an emergency. I was able to get in and get the crown done in a reasonable timeframe. The crown took one visit, and it was perfect. It looks exactly like my natural teeth and fits perfectly along with its neighbors. Dr. Connors uses high tech 3D imaging (rather than biting a mold and making a cast) to create the plan for the crown, and then synthesizes it right there in the office while you watch. And then it's ready to install. Amazing! It is obvious that Dr. Connors is a master of her craft and I am extremely happy to have her as my dentist! (Also, the old house she has set up as offices is adorable!)

I would tend to agree with Brigid to some degree as Dr. Nowysz seems to always find things you need…read moreto get done and insists upon what I would describe as "add ons" that you don't really need. I also got a reminder e-mail from the clinic that I should go in for more dental work to take advantage of the full insurance allocation for the fiscal year - or something to that effect. I don't approach dental care with such a financial gain perspective nor of going after work you don't really need simply to maximize your benefits out. Rather, I would prefer to get the work done that I need without doing excessive work or adding on a host of additional services that aren't actually essential or really needed. Having said that, Dr. Nowysz and her team are always extremely nice and friendly. She was great with my kids and I had a positive dental exam the one time I did see her. She also does charitable work for free in Latin America routinely and I have a huge amount of respect for that and her voluntary spirit. So I would recommend her, but be firm in saying "no" if you get the impression she is proposing additional things you don't actually need or perhaps get the feeling she is exaggerating an issue that might not be as intensive as she suggested (she had a high priority treatment my daughter needed which I declined as we were traveling and two years later my daughter's teeth are just fine, no issues so obviously the treatment wasn't that critical or urgent).

Fast forward about 10 years and I'm thinking about replacing the crown. My dentist in the Cities can't quite tell some specific info about the crown by looking at the x-rays and suggests I call my old dentist to get my records. I call today thinking it's going to be something like 6 weeks and a $50 processing fee to get my hands on the info, especially when I learn that my old dentist no longer works there. Instead, I spoke with Vicki, a wonderfully competent individual, who was able to pull up my records within about 2 minutes of talking to her. She did say that the specific info I was looking for (which, btw, I could barely articulate, "I need to know something about my crown. Was it put on directly or was there a post or something like that?") was probably on a paper copy, not on the computer, and asked if she could call me back. She called back within, I'm not kidding, 10 minutes and told me exactly what I needed to know. I love being pleasantly surprised like that!
