Being a first time patient everyone has questions in there mind.. Me and my mom had a question. But the staff was very helpful. Dr. Amrish was a very knowledgeable and well experienced. I would definitely recommend my friends to see him for any dental issues.

Dr. Patel and his staff are fantastic!! They saw me within 1 day of my calling with an emergency implant issue. They have gone out of there way to find a solution to my problem and thoroughly explained what was happening. They’re knowledge of dentistry seems only surpassed by their friendly caring manner. I don’t feel like I’m cattle being herded in and out of their office and won’t have to wait long for a cleaning appointment either (my former dentists advised me there was a 7+month wait for just a cleaning). I look forward to getting my new implant and future visits for my family’s dental needs. Thank you Dr. Patel and Ms. Tammi! You guys ROCK!!!

This is by far the best dentist office I’ve ever been to. Everyone provides exceptional service! They are kind, understanding, and absolutely relentless in making their patients happy. I have been going to dentists for over 14 years and have always walked out deeply discouraged and disappointed. I never once felt like that walking out of here. They are not just chasing your money. They are truly interested in helping you, and they don’t fall short by any means!! Highly, highly recommended! If I could give more stars I would!

Everyone at the practice is super sweet. The dental hygienists always tend to me with gentle hands and words of encouragement knowing I am one that has anxiety. The dentist is very kind and informative when relaying information on treatments. I have recommended them to friends and coworkers and will continue to do so.

After a disturbing and negative visit to a local dentist, I went to Lakeshore Dental for a second consultation. After a very short wait, I was led back to the examining room by a friendly, calming dental tech. She made me comfortable in the chair, and shortly the dentist arrived. Ill try to summarize how this visit went with the dentist, Dr. Patel.Dr. Patel is an engaging, comfortable, knowledgeable professional. He is truly the best dentist Ive been to in my 63 years. Whereas the first dentist was doom and gloom about my particular dental problem, Dr. Patel was upbeat and confident while examining me. He told me that he was confident that he could save a tooth that I had already resigned myself to losing. Dr. Patel explained how he was going to be able to save this tooth, the methods he would be using, and he came across as very confident in his skills in this area.Dr. Patel saved the tooth, and the final result was a beautiful, natural looking crown over the natural tooth- a much better outcome than losing the tooth. I couldnt be more pleased with the whole staff at Lakeshore Dental, from the friendly and helpful admin staff, to the dedicated and caring dental techs working with Dr. Patel, and Dr. Patel himself. It could not have gone better for me. I encourage everyone to give Dr. Patel and his staff a try. I really believe that if it is even remotely possible to ensure a positive outcome for your dental needs, Lakeshore Dental is the place to go.

Was seen by Dr Kirpel and Margarita for a root canal and it was by far the easiest and least painful experience. They were very concerned on how I was doing and explained every step. Fantastic job. Thank you.

After seeing my regular Dentist today I was told I needed a surgeon ASAP. BUT I was sent out of his office with a stack of phone numbers. I was told to call around. I had an emergency appendectomy a few weeks ago. The inside of my mouth was cut open when they put the tube down my throat .Also I had a piece of jaw bone sticking out. Last night a piece of bone came out. The pain became unreal. After calling around and everyone saying they cant help me. Or go to the ER... FINALLY I found Lakeshore Dental. They fit me in. Everyone was so friendly happy and the Dr was very nice himself. I would recommend going to them any day of the week.

My husband needed an emergency extraction and the office was extremely accommodating, kind, thorough, professional, excellent, etc! We were in and out of the office in less than an hour! Dr. Patel was extremely competent and even followed up, personally, at the end of the business day to make sure everything was going well for my husband. Ive yet to meet a dentist or dental practice as kind and as wonderful as Lakeshore Dental. Thank you so much for your help!

Great experience! The entire staff is welcoming, friendly and attentive to patients. Dr. Patel is the best. He kept me well informed on the dental procedure undertaken, and what to expect over the next few visits. He is conscientious, confident, compassionate, and enjoys providing top notch dental care. Additionally, he is an effective leader as evidenced by the positive vibe that permeates the entire office.

Dr. Patel and the staff is awesome. I have never been disappointed in any of my visits. They will always return your phone calls. Even if you leave a message after hours, they will call you first thing in the morning and always fit you in the schedule for emergencies. And even if you are late for whatever reasons, they are very understanding. No matter how busy they are, the visits are always quick and I never feel rushed.

The staff and Dr Patel are very personable and professional! They make you feel right at home although you’re at the dentist’s office. The office is clean with the latest technological equipment. I have been having my dental work done at Lakeshore for four years , and I am very pleased. Valerie is super efficient as a hygienist and Tami always has an infectious smile when greeting patients! I no longer fear going to the dentist.

While on vacation I lost a new implant crown. Dr Patel was able to see me and give me a new and better quality crown. Highly recommend the practice.

I’ve had dental anxiety for years and I’ve never had a pleasant experience until today. I had my first deep cleaning today and I was extremely nervous! The front desk staff is very courteous. The dental hygienist that I worked with was AMAZING, she was very patient and explained the process thoroughly. I normally dislike dental visits but I’m actually looking forward to getting my smile back with her and Dr. Patel.

Review №26

Today i went to the dentist for the first time in 10 years. If you are terrified like i was i encourage you to come here. The first visit was just x-rays and then Dr Patel gently looked in my mouth and established the plan of care. So if your scared, this is an easy step that doesnt involve anything intense. I have to go back in a week for a deep cleaning, which i know wont be fun. However, my constant worry and stress about my chompers is gone. I will update this review if anything changes but for right now, 10 stars!! Go to the dentist!, if i can do it, you can too!!

Review №28

I walked into this dental office thinking that the dentist would recommend I pull out all my teeth and I get dentures. Instead, Dr Patel saved all of my teeth. He created a plan and worked with me to create a better smile. in the beginning my cavities were so deep that they kept falling out, Dr Patel had enough integrity to replace the feelings every time they fell out until the day came that I was able to afford the crown that I needed. I would highly recommend this dentist office. They play fair with the prices, they create a plan, they guarantee their work. Im not ashamed to smile anymore🥰

Came in today for my first appointment. Everyone there was very friendly. The paperwork was not bad and they to me to the back quickly. The tech was informative and let me know exactly what was going to happen. The dentist came he let me know he was going to do his best to help me, he was very nice and put me at ease. Im actually looking forward to my next appointment.1-19-21 got a root canal today everything went great. They also filled a large cavity which went smooth and looks great. Looking forward to get to getting the rest of the work done.5-19-21 had my teeth cleaned today it was great. Everything went smooth they even got me in a little early. The tech was great she was constantly asking if I was okay which was greatly appreciated and she did a wonderful job. Again everybody there was friendly and very accommodating. Actually looking forward to my next visit.

I just went in for a consult. I have a regular dentist but needed to see a specialist. The facilities look up to date, clean, and spacious. The staff was super friendly! The two doctors I spoke with were Dr. Kirpal and Dr. Patel. Both were very professional and seemed very honest about they thought my prognosis would be. Really pleasant experience so I think I’ll keep coming here!

Lakeshore Dental is by far my favorite dentist office I’ve ever been to. Everyone is professional and courteous and even when you’re in the chair with your mouth being propped open, they always try to make sure you’re okay. No snide comments about the state of my teeth either- I know they need some work, and they know that I know that. Much better than other dentists who lecture me about them like I don’t already know.

Review №53

I have extreme dental anxiety from bad experiences with dentists in my childhood. After asking a question to people about what dentists were good with people with anxiety, this place was recommended to me. The first time I called on the phone, I cried and hyperventilated recounting what happened and let them know I would probably be a problem patient but that I needed help. They helped me through an emergency procedure and were willing to do the things I needed to feel comfortable in booking future appointments that I wouldnt run away from. I am also starting to feel less anxious each time I go (though the anxiety may never be gone), because I know they are coming from a positive, non-judgmental, and caring place. Without hesitations, I recommend Dr. Patel and his team, particularly if you are looking for someone to help you trust dentists again.

I found this place while looking for an emergency appointment for my boyfriend. After filtering through google reviews, I called them and got an appointment for the next day. The staff was so friendly and professional that I made appointments for both my daughter and I. My kid has a ton of energy and usually cries at the dentist but seems to love going to Lakeshore Dental. The hygienists usually ask me about my daughter whenever I visit without her.In addition, the dentist actually explains what he’s doing, makes recommendations, and allows patients to ask questions. If you’re looking for a dental practice where the staff actually remembers your face and takes good care of you, give Lakeshore Dental a try.

I also can say if I have an emergency they appointment are fast.I went a few days ago and I wish they would explained the process of a implant crown was totally different than a regular crown in more details the day they put it in and save me the time and call and get another appointment.

On my second visit, I needed a crown. Going to dentist over the years has created a great deal of fear and anxiety.

I was in extreme pain called and was able to get an appointment the same day. I was super nervous shaking like a leaf about getting my tooth extracted but the staff calmed me down and Dr Patel is heaven sent. When he told me he was done I couldnt believe I didnt feel a thing. I was nervous for nothing. The cost was way way less than I expected and the staff even told me what insurance to sign up for so I can be covered because my insurance was out of network. Im about to schedule appointments for my whole family. They are the best.

Review №89

TERRIBLE! DO NOT GO HERE! MONEY MONGERS! WASTED MY MONEY! Money monger. I’m not sure why but many dentist are now desperate for money & will say whatever to get you into their office and charge you for a consult even if they if they know they can’t even help you. A waste of my money. I called and even sent them current X-rays and they insisted that they did not know if they could help me until they “saw” me when everything they needed or even could see was right there in the X-rays since the tooth was in my gums and not visible yet. THE DENTIST EVEN LIED AND SAID HE THOUGHT I CAME IN FOR SOMETHING ELSE. THEY LIED AND TOLD ME I WAS COMING IN FOR SOMETHING BUT THEN SAID THEY DIDNT KNOW!!!! TERRIBLE !!! I WILL RERUTE THIS. I did not need a referral. I already had a oral surgeon as I told them previously as well. The dentist didn’t even exam my teeth for more than 5 seconds then oh that’s surgery which is common sense. No exam was needed for that. Should have just told me they could not help me so I could continue to contact an actual oral surgeon. Only reason I agreed to referral is thinking it would get me in the next day but they said 2 weeks later and did would charge me for X-rays again and consultation.
