Dr. Ray Montalvo, DMD

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Montalvo. He is incredibly thoughtful, kind, and genuinely compassionate when it comes to caring for his patients. From the moment you walk into his office, you feel seen, heard, and completely at ease. He takes the time to explain everything clearly and never makes you feel rushed. You can truly tell he loves what he does—and it shows in the quality of his work. It’s rare to find someone who’s not only great at their job but also such a kind human being. We are so lucky to have him as our dentist!

Like most people, I'm not a fan of getting dental work done. Recently, I needed a root canal and a few fillings. Dr. Montalvo and staff were very compassionate and knowledgeable. Despite being very nervous, I had a great experience. Highly recommend this office.

The care is rear - once you get in

Experienced doctor, but worst support staff and make sure to contact your health insurance before making the appointment with this office. They said I am in network and they charged me as out of network patient and there prices are ridiculously high.

Love the friendliness and the ease that the staff put me in. Great work.

Awesome experience! Very friendly and caring staff. I would highly recommend to all of my family and friends.

I always get good results with Dr Montalvo. He and his staff are very helpful and concerned about my satisfaction in this endeavor to get partials made. Thank you

Great visit. Was in the office for over 4 hours getting dental work done - at no time was I in terrible pain and at no time did I feel uncomfortable or forgotten. Thank you!

I would highly recommend Dr. Montalvo and his staff they work hard to make sure you feel at ease with everything and are so friendly and attentive.

Dr. Montalvo and his staff have taken excellent care of me! My smile is so much nicer and my dental health has improved dramatically. Nicole is a wonderful hygienist. Very personable, knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend Family Dentistry at Southwood for anyone needing dental care.

I was very happy with Dr. Montalvo’s ability to be personable as well as professional. He was sincere, approachable and happy to answer any questions. It was a good experience.

I am 79 years old and have had many dentists in my lifetime and many tooth extractions. This time, with Dr. Montalvo, has been the most comfortable and successful tooth extraction of my life. I have had almost no bleeding or discomfort. Dr. Montalvo is extremely careful, caring and skilled and I am grateful I trusted him with my dental problem. Thank you Dr. Montalvo. I will recommend you very highly to family and friends. You are the best!!!

Great experience with staff and dentist, only issue is their rates are higher than quite a few other dentists in our area. My son needs a good bit of work done so we will be having it done somewhere else.

I appreciate the care that each staff member and Dr. Montalvo provide. And, it's very helpful to have a heads up of what the costs will be.

I am always referring people to this practice and especially to Dr. Montalvo. The timing of being seen is never late, staff are always helpful and respectful. I never feel rushed or like I am a bother to them. They do not talk over my face and the treatment is right on. I recommend this dentist to all the people I know who need a good one.
