We highly recommend Dr. Rakow! He is a great dentist, gentle and explains thoroughly what needs to done.
My husband has some dementia challenges and the whole staff has been so patient and kind.
His wife is very friendly, I appreciate all the times she has helped me understand things such as options regarding a tooth implant.

Dr. Rakow is a great dentist. Have had a lot of work done at Yelm Family Dentistry. My family has been going here for years with no complaints. Ms. Marge at the front desk is great too, as she always ensures that I’m aware of my upcoming appointments and is always nice to talk to. The hygienists are top notch and are great with kids. Highly recommended.

If I could give less than a 1 star rating I would. The staff is truly horrible, dishonest, and they treat their patience with disrespect. I would NOT recommend going to this dentist and finding another one at all cost. More people should be posting reviews on the manipulative services that is provided on regular at this office. I will be finding a new dentist from now on. Highly recommend finding a reputable dentist outside of Yelm.

Had a very disappointing experience and would not recommend to anyone. Was treated cold and unfriendly at the front desk. One of my kids had there fist cavity and it was such a bad experience that I didn't want to go back. So I went up to my old dentist in Seattle and I had them re-clean all of our teeth because I felt that when Yelm Family Dentist cleaned them it was super fast and not thorough. I found out they missed a cavity on my daughter that needed to be filled. It was such a horrible experience and my kids even felt a bad vibe! Will never go back!
