She has always been friendly, kind and gentle with my son. He is happy and enthusiastic to see the dentist!Sajid Khimji2023-08-14Very thorough cleaning!A Silverman2023-08-08Great service from the dentist and staff. Mikaela in particular is a standout. I have a bad back, which makes it difficult for me to recline in the dentist chair. Mikaela does cleanings while I sit up, which means she has to stand throughout the session. I really appreciate the extra effort to accommodate me.M Wright2023-08-07I have always found Dr Rizik and Michaela to be really professional. The dental office is easy to deal with to schedule appointments and there is generally no more than a minimal wait when I arrive. We were referred to Dr. Rizik when our previous dentist retired and are very glad to have found her and her team.Andrija Barbir2023-08-02Wonderful staff and great service!
