Dr Tulenko had been my father’s dentist for over 20 years. Now she is my dentist too. She is very professional and respectful. Most nicest dentist who cares for her patients. Her staff are like family. They’re very welcoming and you can feel their energy and see how well they work together. I’ve been a patient for over 6 years and hopefully for as long as she’ll have me as her patient.Thanks doc😊😊

I have visited Dr. Tulenko’s office the past 17 years and I cannot stress how kind she is. The staff is always kind and inviting and Dr. Tulenko is an EXPERT in her field. I have gotten countless fillings done, deep cleanings, and a root canal, and all has gone so smoothly! She takes most insurances and has been super affordable for me and my family. I used to get really bad anxiety while visiting the dentist but I never feel that way with Dr. Tulenko. She is gentile, extraordinarily kind, and has a great sense of humor. The office is clean, organized and very relaxing. From the wireless headphones, the water fountain in the waiting room, the tropical theme, and the TVs on the ceiling, the office is as relaxing as can be and Dr. Tulenko genuinely cares about her patients—you can tell. Whether it’s intense work of just a cleaning or whitening, I cannot recommend Dr. Tulenko enough! I’ve been going to her office 17 years and not planning on changing that any time soon.

Dr. Tulenko is wonderful! I have always had horrible experiences with dentists, but I’m so happy I found Dr. Tulenko! She is so gentle and always makes her patients comfortable. I’m never going to another dentist again!

I went to Dr. Tulenko as a new patient she was friendly and made me feel comfortable. The reason I chose to find another dental office to go to is because I needed to get a crown and after all the x-rays and exam that took a very long time I went to the front desk and spoke with Letty the office representative. She told me that I had no choice in picking the type of crown I wanted because Dr. Tulenko only does zirconia crowns. What I have a problem with is Letty told me she would charge my insurance for a porclean fused to metal crown I would have to pay my percentage of that and all out of pocket for the zirconia crown I asked her to submit the correct crown to my dental insurance the zirconia one and she said oh there is no such code for that crown. After speaking to my insurance company they informed me that there is a code for every procedure and its not right for that office to charge for something else she also recommended I find a dental office that did things correctly. It is the patients choice to chose what crown they want and if Dr. Tulenko doesnt want to do the porclean fused to metal she needs to inform new patients before they waste time and money seeing her. Again its the patients choice to chose the type of crown they want and this office needs to charge the correct material and services they perform. I am not willing to pay all out of pocket when I have insurance and a good insurance at that so no way will I pay double what I am supposed to pay if they would just submit the correct procedure code its a scam beware of this office.

Dr. Tulenko is an amazing dentist. She always made me feel very comfortable and I wish I could continue to be her patient. Her office is clean and her dental assistants are amazing as well. The one flaw about her office is one of her front office staff, Leti. She is very unpleasant to talk to and tries to double bill.Please read your EOB and make sure she doesn’t try and pull a fast one on you. I’ve had to correct her several times about my bill. Also I think it is very crazy to me how Leti told me they only provide a very expensive porcelain cap at their office, they have no other options for people who don’t need the upgraded one, keep that in mind as well. Leti will not work with you if you can not afford the expenses all at once. It’s either you pay all upfront or too bad you can go somewhere else. I think this is very unrealistic for many people especially if they are in so much pain and their health is on the line. She doesn’t really care and I’m not sure if Dr.Tulenko realizes she has a bad seed on her staff. My friend recommended me to Dr. Tulenko but her bad seed has made me think twice about going there. My friend as well has left their office because of Leti, she needs to fire her or correct her ways.

Dr. Tulenko - my dentist for half of my life - is an incredibly skilled dentist and very kind/warm person, however I cannot stress enough the importance of letting somebody know the costs before performing the work. She is VERY expensive and nobody enjoys a surprise bill especially when on a tight budget. Her office is very clean/organized and they seem to always be keeping up with technology in the dental field. Dental assistants are great but, front office staff can be stand-offish at times. You just have to get through them which can be more painful than the dental work.
