"I have to admit I am a pain in the butt why was put at ease by Dr.Elliott!! I am no longer afraid of the dentist. On a side note, I would like to know who cleaned my teeth the first time. I don't feel like my last cleaning was as good as the first. That's all!!! Other than that I think Dr.Elliott is magical and I look forward to my next visit...well...almost :-)"

-bridgetn

"Everyone very nice and efficient. Surprised not to have gums checked for gingivitis as well as having mouth examined for signs of cancer - missed these two usually regularly performed tasks when I visit the dentist/have my teeth cleaned. Not aas thorough a checkup as I usually get."

-cynthiam

"Everyone at the office were very kind and all knew me by name, even keeping up with previous conversations and news. All the procedures were quick, painless, and clean. Everyone informed me on everything from billing, to what was going to be done, to after care, etc. I was not happy with my smile what-so-ever and was told that it may take about a year to fix. But they got it all done in less than 6 months! I am very proud of my teeth and love to show off my smile now. Thank you very much! I would recommend this dental office to anyone in the area."

"Everytime I have been to your facility it has been a great experience. I am a very bad patient when it comes to dentistry but you all have made me feel very comfortable each and every time. Rene was very nice and accomodating to me during my visit yesterday as well as the rest of the staff. Excellent job and I think even though I am petrified by dental experiences that I have found one that helps me through my anxieties about this. Thanks to each and everyone of you on staff there, you are all appreciated."

"Dr. Elliott was interested in trying to get to know me and my dental history. I complained of a specific area of discomfort and he quickly located the cause of the problem and I was scheduled for a return visit the next day after his office staff contacted my insurance carrier to make sure the follow up visit was covered. I am very pleased with the care and treatment that I have received."

-neilt

"Great place - good times and well done."

-janetk

"I got a deep cleaning done today and it was a wonderful experience! Ericka was so nice and incredibly informative! In the 45 mins I was there, she taught me so much about oral hygiene! She suggested that I purchase a waterpik (no pressure to purchase it though). I bought it and it is amazing! My mouth is super happy right now! This experience overall is an A++. Not to mention they sell Sonicare toothbrushes and waterpiks for about 30% less than anywhere else! Obvious your oral hygiene is more important to them than how much profit they can make! So glad I'm a new patient!"

-nathant

"I love coming to your dentist office. Renee was very nice and generous to me and my situation wasnt the easiest to deal with."

-justins

"Not only did the hygienist take me back early, but the cleaning was immaculate and she was extremely amiable and kind. The last time I'd been in, Dr. Elliott shaved a bit off of one tooth to see if it would stop teeth grinding at night. It did! My teeth are now grinding-free. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Santa Rosa Dentistry!"

-lees

"Exactly what you would want in a dentist, professional and competent."

"Left with a smile on my face.Hope to keep the smile for good."

-davidc

"Your office staff is the most friendly and professional that I've encountered ever. The ambiance is so relaxing and comfortable that you don't know you're in a dental office. All work done to me and my mother (who is 91) was done gently, thoroughly and pain-free. I can't believe I've found you but now that I have, we're never going anywhere else."

-anonymous

"The team is the most charismatic group! The young lady who did my dental hygiene was gentle, personal and fast! I will recommend them after being reluctant to go back because of a bad experience. Dr. Elliot is the friendliest and caring dentist I ever met!"
