Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I had been taking my daughter to a different pediatric dentist and and every visit was a fight, Screaming, And to say the least, a struggle. Our 1st visit at this pediatric dentist was a was a whole different experience. My daughter was Immediately comfortable And loved the staff. She has quite a bit of work that needs to be done and I am thrilled I found the right dentist to do it. She needed to be sedated at the other dentist to get work done and she had a tooth pulled with just gas with Dr. Minutillo. I didn't have to sit in the waiting room and hear her scream, it was amazing. She didn't even have tears when she was done! It was like walking into an alternate universe when we walked into this dentist office! I cannot say enough great things!!

It was both my children's first time at the dentist. When I heard they had to go back by themselves I was worried. My 4 year old is stubborn and I thought he was going to freak out. They made both of them feel completely at ease. They were happy excited. My son had to go back twice more. And he he was excited. Never scared. It was amazing.

Dr. Minutillo has been our family dentist for several years now. My children actually get excited when they have a visit! He has an awesome approach to handling cavities so my kids never feared getting it sealed. He has many years if experience and it shows. So happy we found him 8 years ago!

Very friendly staff my daughter likes going to the dentist since we started going to Dr. Minutillo’s office. She always has great experience since the staff is kind and she likes that she can watch TV during her check up.

My personal dentist referred my 4yr old son to a pediatric dentist. I did some research and chose Dr Lin because their facility seemed to be proficient in treating children. My son had 3 visits total. He gets anxious easily, so I was very concerned about him getting dental work done. I have to say, I couldn’t have been more impressed with the facility in general, the dr and the other staff. They went above and beyond to make sure my son felt as comfortable as possible.
