I had an amazing experience at my new dental clinic. The ambiance is really nice and welcoming, and all the employees are incredibly friendly. Special shoutout to Nathalie. I’ve been getting dental cleanings my whole life, and she genuinely gave me the best cleaning experience I’ve ever had. It was so smooth and comfortable from start to finish. Overall, everything was amazing. I’m definitely coming back and highly recommend this place.
Apex has been a trusted referral resource for my physical therapy clients and for my personal dental care as well! Everyone is so friendly and the new office is gorgeous. Most importantly, I receive such extensive education and always feel I have the full attention of my dentist and hygienist. I've incorporated advice with a new mouthguard to help with teeth grinding, new myonozzle straw for strengthening my tongue and improving breathing, and new product recommendations for better toothpaste and flossing habits (waterpik). Highly recommend!!
I love coming to Apex Dental to get my teeth cleaned. I love seeing Jenny, my dental hygienist, whenever I have an appointment. She is the reason I have gone there for over 10 years! Such a joy! Always can put a smile on my face, even when I’m nervous !! Can’t wait to come back in 6 months !
We love Dr. Mindy, she has been such a wonderful person to work with and to get to know. To say she has gone above and beyond for us is an understatement. She has throughly listened to all of my concerns I had about my son, his airway, breathing, etc. For the first time in years my concerns were not only validated, but we were provided with a treatment plan. We are so grateful and lucky to have her as our provider. I will forever be thankful for the kindness, compassion and empathy she has shown us. Her assistant, Hayley, is just as equally as awesome. She has listened and explained everything at every appointment perfectly. She is also very easy to talk to and definitely has a friendly vibe. The Apex staff as a whole has also been nothing but the best. I have been met with patience and understanding with every phone-call and always feel so welcome at every visit. We recommend Apex Dental so much that we are willing to travel 2 hours for our visits. Finding a dentist who has similar viewpoints, who throughly listens, and someone we now wholeheartedly trust, is worth the drive every time.
Visiting the dentist can be a nerve-wracking experience for many, but Jenny, my dental hygienist at Apex Dental, has a remarkable gift for transforming anxiety into comfort. From the moment you walk into the clinic, her presence radiates warmth and reassurance. Jenny doesn’t just clean teeth—she builds trust, fosters calm, and delivers care with a level of compassion that’s rare and deeply appreciated. Jenny’s approach to personal care is nothing short of exceptional. She treats each patient as an individual, not just a name on a chart. She remembers the little things—whether it’s your favorite flavor of polish, your sensitivity to cold water, or even how your kids are doing in school. These thoughtful touches make every visit feel personalized and intentional. Her attention to detail extends beyond clinical precision; it’s in the way she listens, the way she explains procedures, and the way she makes sure you’re comfortable every step of the way. For those who harbor fears about dental visits, Jenny is a true ally. She has an intuitive understanding of dental anxiety and never rushes or dismisses a patient’s concerns. Instead, she takes time to talk through each step, using gentle language and a calm demeanor that immediately puts you at ease. Her voice is soothing, her movements are deliberate and gentle, and she always checks in to make sure you’re doing okay. It’s clear she genuinely cares about how her patients feel—not just physically, but emotionally. One of Jenny’s most admirable qualities is her ability to turn a potentially stressful experience into a positive one. I’ve seen her work with children and adults who’ve avoided the dentist for years. She never judges or lectures; she simply meets people where they are and helps them move forward with confidence. Her empathy is matched by her professionalism, and the combination makes her an invaluable part of the dental team. Beyond her interpersonal strengths, Jenny is also incredibly skilled in her craft. Her cleanings are thorough yet gentle, and she’s always up-to-date on the latest techniques and tools. She explains what she’s doing in a way that’s easy to understand, empowering patients to take better care of their oral health between visits. Her commitment to education and prevention is evident, and she’s always happy to answer questions or offer tips tailored to your needs. In a world where healthcare can often feel impersonal, Jenny stands out as a beacon of kindness, competence, and genuine care. She doesn’t just clean teeth—she builds relationships, eases fears, and helps people feel good about taking care of themselves. If you’re someone who dreads the dentist, Jenny might just change your mind. And if you’re lucky enough to already be her patient, you know exactly what I mean. Jenny is more than a dental hygienist—she’s a comforter, a caregiver, and a true professional. I can’t recommend her highly enough.
