I moved to Baltimore recently and Dr. Schmidt came highly recommended. I have been treated now by his office twice and have been pleased with the ease of becoming a new patient, their procedures, the hygienists, and of course Dr. Schmidt! I tend to normally get very nervous when going to the dentist, but everyone has been welcoming, patient and gentle, yet thorough. Dr. Schmidt's approach is easygoing and comforting, while professional with a high level of expertise. One other point: Kathy at the front desk has been easy to work with and has been helpful in answering my myriad of questions

My husband and I have the best dentist. Dr. Shires has been taking care of our teeth for many years and we couldn't be happier with the dental treatment we receive. We love our smiles. Also, his entire staff is wonderful.

Called them to book a new patient appointment and the receptionist was Slow, Rude and Unprofessional. Took all my details and in the end asked me if I was having any problems, when I told her yes, she tells me they don't have anything available until mid-December. When I told her she should have asked me that first we could have saved us some time, she's like you should have told me that first. Seriously? That was really rude.
On a side note, before calling her I tried to make an online appointment on their site and after filling out the form the site breaks and throws an error. Time

Dr. Schmidt takes care of my whole family. He is very thorough, explains what options of treatment are available and makes the whole visit easy. All staff are very pleasant and the dental hygienists are excellent. My kids cannot wait to see them every 6 months! And I never had to wait in waiting room for a long time. They are pretty punctual to see patients.

Dr. Shires consistently exceeds our expectations with our entire family's dental care. Recently, my son chipped his front tooth and Dr. Shires went above and beyond the call of duty...seeing him on very short notice and doing an amazing job restoring his beautiful smile. Thank you to Dr. Shires and the entire dental staff!!

Dr. Shires and his team are fantastic! They are very caring about every aspect of dentistry. Dr. Shires goes above and beyond to ensure that I am happy with the end result (and how we got there). I have always had a very positive experience with Dr. Shires, as have the other three members of my family. He is the best dentist ever!

Dr. Shires and his team are amazing! They are professional, friendly, and above all, care about each patients specific needs. Dr. Shires has a phenomenal chairside manner and he takes the time to thoroughly explain any issues. He has always made me feel welcomed and comfortable at each visit. I will continue to recommend him to all of my family and friends!

I never believed that a dentist could improve your smile until I became a patient of Dr. Shires. He is extremely professional and so is everyone in his office. I have recommended him to my family and friends including my wife and daughter who are now his patients. Cannot recommend him enough!!

Everyone in this office is kind, helpful, courteous, respectful and caring. I've been going to see them for years and have no plans of going to see anyone else. I can't imagine why anyone would give them a bad review.

I love going to Dr. Shires & Dr. Schmidt's office. Every time they always provide full and thorough care and always make me feel comfortable. Sometimes I forget I'm at the dentist and really think I'm getting a mouth massage. Their dental hygienists are also great. I have recommended this practice to my friends and they also agree.

Dr. Shires and Schmidt is great for us college students who need our yearly checkups when we return home! The dentists and receptionist care about our experiences away from home and are exceptionally friendly and efficient.
