My regular 6 mo appointment was scheduled for the end of May. When I found out that Dr. Garbis’s office was open and I could keep it, I was admittedly on the fence. Knowing how responsible Dr. Garbis’s practice is, I decided to go. All possible precautions and accommodations were made for everyone and I felt completely safe. The office environment was as friendly as always. I went home happy with wonderfully clean teeth, thank you Lori! I can’t say enough about this excellent, caring practice.

Tremendous! This is the way a practice should be managed and how a team performs efficiently. Lynn greeted me warmly and got me in earlier than I was scheduled. Eddie, my hygienist, was sensational. Dr. Garbis fixed a tooth two prior dentists couldn’t.
I received some not so great news about deteriorating gums, but Dr. Garbis and Eddie were both positive, uplifting and motivating about improving my home care regimen. Kudos to my husband as his great researching skills found this practice. I am so glad I’m a patient here!

We have been Dr. Garbis' patients for over 18 years now. Dr. Garbis and his staff are extremely professional, knowledgeable, and caring. The office is extremely clean and equipped with the latest technological advances in dentistry be it a new intra-oral scanner or dental composites. Thanks for all the years of stellar care!

We are new patients but best of all we found out about Dr Garbis when our regular dentist retired and then realized he is so close to our house, we could walk to his building.
Before it took us 1.5 hrs r/t, now it is under 10min.
What really matters is that Dr. Garbis and his staff are really great, careful in explaining very detail, gentle with the instruments/tools and asking us repeatedly if we are ok during the procedure.
We are glad we are their patients.

Great dental office. I have been a patient for a few years now and love my choice after switching from another office. Dr. Garbis and staff are great. The front desk staff are pleasant and welcoming. Everyone makes you feel like they remember you every time you walk in. We have had a few procedures done and the work seems to be great. I expect to be a patient for many years.
