Fantastic experience: FROM WALKING THROUGH THE DOORS AT LAKESIDE DENTAL I WAS GREETED WITH A WARM AND WELCOMING RECEPTION. MY DENTAL HYGIENIST NAME KT WAS VERY FRIENDLY,PROFESSIONAL AND SHE MADE ME FEEL COMFORTABLE THROUGHOUT MY APPOINTMENT. KT DID A GREAT JOB EXPLAINING EVERYTHING SHE WAS DOING AND WAS VERY GENTLE DURING MY CLEANING. KT IS AN OUTSTANDING REGISTERED DENTAL HYGIENIST!!! I WOULD RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A DENTAL HYGIENIST.

Negative experience: I walked in to a front desk that was messy and overflowing with papers everywhere. Then an extremely unwelcoming receptionist talked to me in a very abrasive tone for no reason. However, the worst part was that I asked to use the restroom and it was dirty (I had to clean the toilet to even use it) then there was no soap available for me to wash my hands that I had just cleaned their toilet with. I walked back to the front desk and informed unwelcoming receptionist about the need for soap and she simply ignored it. I was so confused by why she was being so extremely rude, that I just cleaned my hands with hand sanitizer and walked out. Deeply disappointing. Would not recommend to anyone.
We are happy to look into this for you. Please call us at 205-343-9393, and we can discuss the details of this review further. Thank you for sharing this information with us.
Fantastic experience: The dental hygienist is so thorough and genuinely cares about the patient. I would highly recommend going to Lakeside Dental!
Fantastic experience: Very nice and professional from the receptionist to the DR. Very personable. Very clean and up to date with technology!! Best Dentist I have been to.

Fantastic experience: I had a paralyzing fear of going to the dentist due to a past nightmare of an experience. I was recommended to Lakeside Dental over 14 years ago. From day one, Dr. Sandras and his staff have been friendly, professional, and always showed they care about their patients well-being. Let's just say I now look forward to my visits! I couldn't imagine going to any other dentist. Edit..Dr. Sandra's has retired (miss him) but the quality of care received has not wavered.
Fantastic experience: Nice and polite staff. Highly compedant dentist He keeps up with the up to date practice Less or no pain. Less drilling. He's the greatest
Fantastic experience: The staff was very friendly and accommodating and the dentist was kind and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend them. Mary Dinnen
