I saw Dr. Broom back when I lived in Seattle (just before the pandemic) and he was always such a pleasure to work with. He dealt with my anxiety expertly and always put me at ease. He truly cares about his patients and his staff is very friendly. I'd seriously consider trips back to Seattle just to go to the dentist!

My teeth are the worst part of my health, and I have always felt uncomfortable going to the dentist. This guy is the best dentist who ever worked on me with the best attitude. He even worked on me overtime a few times and never made me feel ashamed for how shockingly bad I treated my teeth. He even encouraged me to consider becoming a dental assistant because I used to work in the medical field, and I never forgot his standard of care. I'm now in dental assisting school in part because of my experience with him, and when I move back to his area I'm hoping to have him as my family dentist again

This is the best dental clinic I have been to in this country. I tried a lot of "fancier" clinics after moving away from the u district. However, none of the doctors nor their assistant are as professional and thoughtful as them. After much debate I went back to them again even that I have to drive a long way now. I can't say enough about how much I appreciate them.

Love Dr. Broom and his office staff. Been going here for years and take my kids here as well. Always super helpful and friendly and does a good job. Doesn't try to upsell you on anything. No frills. Will work with you if you don't have perfect insurance or whatnot. All around nice guy. Highly recommend.

If you want prompt, friendly, fairly-priced, and skilled dental work with no hassle and no frills, this the place for you. Dr. Broom is an awesome guy. You can tell he loves people (and his vocation) in everything he does. If he's ever had a bad day when I've been visiting, I've never been able to detect it. His support staff is made of the same stuff. Seriously, I don't like having to go to the dentist, but I LOVE that I get to go to Dr. Broom's office when I need work done. Great people. Great experience. Thank you, Dr. Broom.

Moving to a new country has its challenges, one of them is to find a dentist you like and trust. I had to do some "dentist hopping" in Seattle before I finally landed on Dr Broom. I walked away from my first appointment with a skip in my step. If you want a dentist with integrity, Dr Broom is your man. Believe all the reviews. My only wish is that I had found him sooner!

Dr Broom has been my Dentist for a few years now. He is pleasant and sincere, same goes for the staff. I have been to a lot of Dentist in the past 10 years and sorry to say I have to move. If I was a millionaire I would try to move him with me. He never tried to sell me anything I didn't need or push procedures on me. He's always been straight forward and honest. Dentists typically have a bad habit of making me very insecure about my teeth and gums but he just tells me where he sees problems. He is the best teeth cleaner you can have. He's aggressive and thorough, it's basically a deep scaling

What else can be said that isn't a repeat of what the other Yelp reviews have described of Dr. Broom? I received a new patient complimentary consultation from Dr. Broom about some tooth sensitivity. Not only did he helpfully identify the most likely tooth giving off the sensitivity, but he even provided thorough details about the possible underlying causes, realistic treatment options, and outlook for my overall dental health going forward. He and his team are the some of the most personable dental professionals around. Rather than use blame or scare tactics, it was clear that Dr. Broom has

Dr. Broom is really wonderful. I hadn't been to a dentist for a few years and had prepared myself for the typical guilt trip that dentists have perfected, but he took it in stride and just focused on the future instead of the past. Prices were incredibly decent and he doesn't pressure you regarding additional procedures/treatments.

After having an older porcelain crown crumble on me, I was shocked at what dentists around town were quoting me to have it replaced. Even then, no one would say for sure exactly how much they would charge prior to a visit. When I got Dr. Broom’s office on the phone, they were very straightforward and down-to-earth and had no problem telling me how much they would charge me. Their initial quote was about 40% lower than the average of the ten other offices I had contacted previously. The office is clean. The staff is personable and friendly. Dr. Broom is a great conversationalist. It’s the first

Best dentist I've ever had.
Dr Broom explains what is going on in your mouth an open, detailed, factual, but completely non-judgemental way. He gives you your options and lets you decide what you want to do. No pressure, no upselling, just a genuine desire to do what is best for *you*. So refreshing!

Mr. Broom is really a nice guy. I've seen him 2 times now and he is very personable and respectable of different opinions. He spent the time to talk to me about my options regarding removing a amalgam filling. He never makes you feel rushed and is willing to answer any questions/concerns. I would recommend him to anyone in the area. Parking is also free when you validate with the office. Nice People!

All doctors/lawyers/professionals should be like Dr. Broom. We've been going to him for close to 10 years and never have we ever felt like he was trying to become rich off of us! He actually was an accountant but went back to dental school because he wanted to be able to spend more time with his family (not because he wanted to make more $$$).
He is conservative when it comes to X-rays and procedures and will only do them if necessary. As a cash patient, I really appreciate this type of thinking since I pay for 100% of my care. When I first went in, I had a really shallow cavity forming

Professional, Personable and Effective Dental Care
If you are a patient of Dr. Broom then you know he is a great dentist and his staff is top notch.
What is impressive about him is he really, really cares about his patients. He spends a lot of time working with you so you understand your treatment options, the procedures and after visit care.
My wife and I have had crowns, fillings and cleanings from Dr. Broom and every procedure was perfect the first time. We have been consistently impressed with his skill and treatment plans.
The rest of the staff are fantastic, friendly and professional

I woke up with a toothache. Without a regular dentist, I needed to find one, and pretty quickly, too. I saw Dr. Broom had stellar reviews on Yelp, and--yay--he is a preferred provider through my dental insurance.
Calling at 8:30 in the morning and hoping for an appointment, but not counting on one, I left a message. Dr. Broom himself rang me back, asked me a couple questions about my symptoms, and said he could probably squeeze me in, although he was quite busy. Threw on some acceptable attire and got there in time for my last-minute appointment.
I was greeted by Dr. Broom, who was very courteous

Five stars to a dentist? Yes. Seriously.
They bill directly to GAIP without making a fuss, and that's five stars right there. Scheduling is easy and the location couldn't be more convenient. The hygienist I had was quiet but nice. Dr. Broom was friendly, super competent, and had reasonable, useful recommendations without doing the you-MUST-FLOSS guilt trip. If you're in the area, and especially if you are a UW graduate student, I would highly recommend him.
