Fantastic experience: On August 13, 2026, I saw Kathy the hygienist and Dr. Shaya, my dentist at Chambers/Riverfront Family Dentistry for my 6 month cleaning. In addition to checking out my teeth, Kathy and Dr. Shaya made me feel welcome, and my teeth healthy. They are the nicest! Cathy Hoffman
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing service. I have never had such a pleasant and welcoming experience at a dental practice. I’ve a few things to work on due to health reasons and a prior unpleasant experience elsewhere but they definitely took their time and demonstrated patience with me. Lovely and kind people, it matters to me. Very thorough but not painful cleaning and back next week for fillings. From there on, I’ll be back. Thank you so much really. I wish I haf gotten your names so I could mention you here.
Fantastic experience: After several horrible experiences with other dental offices, we have finally found a place that feels like home. From the moment I called the office to set up appointments, to being welcomed when we came in for our appointments, to the care we received during our cleanings and maintenance work, the experience has been wonderful. Michelle is a breath of fresh air with her joyful approach to everything, and Dr. Shaya is so kind and caring. I felt listened to, had my questions answered in detail, and the thing that stood out to us was that there was constant communication in everything that was being done during our procedures - which is so important, especially for us nervous nellies. Dr. Shaya's expertise and experience shines through in her efficiency and confidence in everything that she does. I am so happy to have finally found a dental office that cares about their patients.
Fantastic experience: Exceptional service. Arrived early and was seen before my scheduled appointment.
Fantastic experience: I've been going to Chambers Family Dentistry for 15 years. The office staff is friendly and efficient. My dental hygienist, Kelly, and now Dr. Lui are professional yet friendly. I've never had a bad experience there. I'm confident I'm receiving the best oral care with them!

Fantastic experience: Hygienist Peighton explains her process and does a very gentle but thorough cleaning Previous experiences kept me away from hygienist but Peighton makes me very comfortable
Positive experience: Payton the dental assistant was very good! She made me comfortable and was very conversational. She took all my images,patiently and was considerate. I liked the fact that there were books for kids to read as my son kept busy reading books while I received treatment. It's a nice dental office but they need to upgrade on the aeration,furnishings as it does have a dark,musty look when you get in.
Fantastic experience: it was great Dr. Chambers is awesome as is staff..sad to see that he is retiring
Fantastic experience: Having had extensive dental work over the years, it is comforting to find a dentist(s) who can work with the issues that present themselves and provide a reasonable plan for continuing dental health.

Fantastic experience: I had a really bad experience with my previous dentist and I was super nervous to try out Chambers Family Dentistry after years of avoidance. That being said, there was no need to worry because EVERYONE at this office is amazing. They eased my fears and were incredibly understanding about my negative past experience. I HIGHLY recommend Chambers Family Dentist if you are looking for a place that is conveniently located, and full of fantastic dental staff.
Fantastic experience: Amazing service, super informative and friendly staff would recommend 10/10
Negative experience: Nice staff, but I’m still having pain from fillings done with Dr. Shaya. It’s been months but I still cannot chew anything on that side. Every time I go back to have her look at it she shaves more of my tooth down. Very frustrating experience overall.
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Chambers Family Dentistry for many years and they have always been very professional and friendly. They are very thorough and explain things in detail. The dental hygienists are wonderful. I would recommend this office to anyone searching for a new dentist.

Fantastic experience: Saw Kelly yesterday, as always, she's wonderful ! Great visit! I had the pleasure to meet Dr Shaya for the first time after having known and worked in a practice with Dr Chamber the Dad since 1979, before the younger Dr. Chamber's was even in dental school. Once he graduated I had the pleasure to work with both Father and Son. I love them both dearly. I can not sing their praises enough! Even though I was happy for Earl to enter retirement, I was alittle sad for me to be with a different provider. Dr Shaya laid that all to rest yesterday, lovey caring person that made me feel completely comfortable and still "at home". Thank you all, as always
Fantastic experience: I always enjoy coming to the dentist here! I’ve been coming here for about 5 years as an adult. Everyone is so helpful and kind. The service is exceptional. The space is very welcoming and clean. Making or changing appointments is very easy. Everyone is easy to talk to and easy to work with.
Fantastic experience: My experience with Chambers Family Dentistry was excellent!!
Fantastic experience: Our family has been patients for years, and we’ve always been very happy with our experience at Chamber’s Family Dentistry!
Fantastic experience: New to the area and was able to make a next day appointment ! The staff is wonderful and friendly. My dentist was super personable and kind. Happy to have found such a great facility!
Fantastic experience: On time and efficient. Even when I forget to take my pre-procedure meds!
Fantastic experience: I had already written about the excellent treatment I received the time before when pictures had to be taken of all teeth - something that used to be painful because of my difficult bone structure. This time I got a routine cleaning, but even it was personalized with praise for an improved teeth and advice on how to make them even better. I felt like a real person and not just a client.
Fantastic experience: Awesome Dr and staff, thank you..
Fantastic experience: Everyone at Chambers is incredibly friendly. Great expertise and care. Can’t remember a more meticulous and thorough cleaning. It really feels like they care about you as a person not just another patient they want to move quickly through the visit.
Fantastic experience: Recently went for a routine cleaning and the atmosphere is super friendly. The dental hygienist and dentist were awesome. I can tell they genuinely like helping people.
Fantastic experience: One of my crowns fell off, previously installed in 2011, i was able to get a same day appointment, Dr. SHAYA, fixed me right up, and we got my insurance straightened out at the same time. If you have any dental issues the doctors at Chambers Family Dentistry will take very good care of you.
Fantastic experience: Mandana is the best! My kids love her!
Fantastic experience: Exceptional experience. Friendly dentists, technicians and staff. I’ve been a patient for many years and I’m always happy with the service.
Negative experience: Second time my appointment from this dentistry has been canceled. I have opted to find a new dentist. Zero respect for anyone’s time. Very incompetent staff. There’s a reason why you’re able to get quick appointments- because everyone is leaving. The new owner is terrible.
Fantastic experience: My first visit. Simply the best dental appointment I have ever had
Positive experience: Well my initial visit was with Dr. Chambers regarding my procedure. So I was quite surprised when Dr. Shaya was the one to handle the extraction. Nevertheless, she provided easy to understand feedback along with the utmost sensitivity throughout the process. We have a saying in my industry "People don't care how much you know until you show how much you care..." Thank you so much Dr. Shaya for the caring experience received from yourself and the staff.
Fantastic experience: I had a temporary filling from a root canal replaced and the experience was excellent. Doctors Liu and the staff are very proficient and friendly.
Fantastic experience: It was very satisfactory! Results are great!
Fantastic experience: They were awesome! The dental assistant and the whole staff were wonderful. They were nice, and friendly and made it a relatively stress-free experience.
Fantastic experience: As usual, my visit to Chambers Family Dentistry was excellent. Thank you for your careful attention and friendly care. I don't think that visits to the dentist could be better.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Shaya is honest and thorough. The dental hygienist did a wonderful job. Everyone in the practice is friendly and professional.
Fantastic experience: This practice is top notch from the Hygenist, M’s. Womerlore to Dr. Shaya and the front office treat you gently and with care! Recommend them highly for their knowledge, expertise, and gentle treatmen!
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient for ten years with several difficult problems and customary cleanings. Excellent care by friendly, helpful, and professional staff. I recommend this office unconditionally. If you are looking for a dentist in Annapolis look no further
Fantastic experience: When I am there I feel like I am part of the Chambers Family!
Fantastic experience: Chambers Family Dentistry made me feel very comfortable the people their are very nice and welcoming. The staff is very professional .
Fantastic experience: Got an appointment right away. First time going to the Dentist in a few years and had a positive experience. Excellent Staff
Fantastic experience: Kelly is very experienced and knowledgeable and a joy to be around.
Fantastic experience: I had a crown prep and a replacement of an ancient filling (metal). It couldn’t have gone smoother. Absolutely minimal discomfort and problem free.
Fantastic experience: I have been with Chambers Dental for more than 20 years. That is because the people are great and the dentistry is outstanding. I trust them to keep my dental health at its best. I have never found better in my 82 years. I grant them my highest endorsement.
Fantastic experience: best examination i have ever had in any dentist office.
Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed meeting the hygienist and although she' been working there for some time now it was my first time meeting her, I was very pleased with her work ethic, her knowledge and mannerisms, she was also very friendly and easy to talk to (when there wasn't a tool in my mouth) I also feel the same about the Dr I met. If you're looking for a Dentist for whatever reason I would highly recommend Chambers Family Dentistry Back again, you know it's hard to say i enjoyed myself in a dental office but the team at this place makes it almost possible, if you've got to go to the dentist it might as well be one where you like all the staff, at Chambers Family Dentistry you will like all the staff.
Fantastic experience: Consistently thoughtful, thorough and gentle care. I highly recommend this practice.
Fantastic experience: Great experience. A real family practice! A sad reminder that elsewhere dentistry is going corporate like drug stores and hospitals.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Chambers and team provided extra ordinary care during my visit. They listened to my concerns and wrote a plan of care that will improve my smile many years to come.
Fantastic experience: Awesome, Dr. Liu was really friendly and knowledgeable. She was willing to answer any questions without making you feel like she was rushing you out the door. My hygienist was really friendly, personable, efficient, and extremely thorough. I didn't catch her name and I couldn't find her on the website, but she said she started in January 2025, I believe. She was awesome.
Fantastic experience: Dr Liu is absolutely wonderful. She is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to go over my options. It was a very pleasant dentist visit.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Liu is an exceptional dentist. She was the top of her class and is an expert in her field. It's incredibly hard to find healthcare providers in Maryland that are this well educated. You can tell she really cares about her work. I have not worked with Dr. Chambers but since this is such a small practice I know he is not hiring amateurs, nor is one himself. Staff is busy but works hard.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Chambers is the best. He will go the extra mile to ensure your smile is perfect. He will do the research and take the time to understand what your goals are. He will put a smile on your face.
Fantastic experience: Very detailed cleaning and an assessment of my dental health overall
Fantastic experience: I am so glad that our family found this dental practice! Everyone is friendly and professional. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful experience. Thankful that they fit me in even though a new patient.
Fantastic experience: As a new patient, you never know what to expect really. Dr. Liu, and the staff were all great and exactly what you hope for when changing dental offices. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient of a 'Dr. Chambers' since the late 1970s. I wouldn't consider another dental practice. My hygienist Kelly is incredible! Dr. Chambers is the best! Dr. Shaya is also excellent! Thank for the many years of providing me with the best dental care!
Fantastic experience: I had a tricky cosmetic dental issue, and Dr. Liu was amazing. She's super patient and really took the time to walk me through all my options. I felt totally comfortable the whole time. Definitely recommend this office!
Fantastic experience: Another wonderful experience with Dr Shaya! She fixed a front tooth of mine and I feel my smile is so much better and I’m more confident
Fantastic experience: Outstanding experience. Dr. Liu was amazing and the staff / customer service was excellent. Highly Recommend. Thank You!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Shaya is wonderful! On top of her game, honest and caring. And the beautiful location - a little away from the hustle and bustle of typical commercial areas - a total pleasure everytime I visit!
Fantastic experience: Many years at this practice, and only positive experiences!
Fantastic experience: Both hygienist and dentist (Dr Shaya) were engaging and no nonsense. I was in and out in about 45 minutes with clean health and some suggestions that I need to adhere to (like flossing everyday and using electric toothbrush). Loved that my fluoride treatment was a paste that the hygienist applied instead of that super yucky mouthwash! I highly recommend Chambers Family Dentistry!
Fantastic experience: Chambers Family Dentistry provided excellent service. Everyone from the front desk staff to the dental team was pleasant, professional, and welcoming. “Keep up the great work!” Shout out to Dr. Shaya and her team!
Fantastic experience: I'm an older widow. Love Dr Chambers. He is not only great in his professionalism but has a relaxing ,comfortable demeanor. When the Doc is kind and relaxed it spreads to the person in the chair. Staff are kind and attentive to the entire office.
Fantastic experience: For anyone who wants a great dental experience, make an appointment with Chambers Family Dentistry. I was particularly delighted to find out that Dr Chambers is back after his “first” retirement sabbatical! Doc, I hope you can beat the attraction of the “second” retirement phase ☺️
Fantastic experience: Chambers Family Dentistry is top notch! I thoroughly appreciated the experience from beginning to end. Everyone was professional, Informative and friendly. I highly recommend them!
Fantastic experience: Dr Shaya finished the final steps on my first implant. She was very informative, making me aware of everything she was doing before she started doing it. She also made sure I understood everything she was telling me- explained how to care for my implant and what to look out for in case of infection. She was very thorough and personable. And she didn’t hurry through the procedure. I am very happy with the service she provided and highly recommend her!
Fantastic experience: Chambers Family Dentistry has been my dental care provider for over 20 yrs. and the quality of care has only gotten better over that period of time. Staff is knowledgeable and caring, the Drs. are fantastic and utilize the lastest technology to provide outstanding care, and I always feel comfortable asking questions about my specific care and procedures. If you are looking to build a long term relationship with a local dental practice I would not hesitate to recommend Chambers Family Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: Very pleasant staff, I had no appointment and when I told them how I was feeling they told me to go in, satisfied with recommendations and will be their client hence forth Thanking you, Ann Davis.
Fantastic experience: Dr Chambers is great! As was his father before him. The whole team. Is good.
Fantastic experience: I recently visited Chambers Family Dental and saw Dr. Kathy Liu for a check-up and cleaning. From start to finish, my experience was outstanding. Dr. Liu was incredibly professional, thorough, and made me feel completely at ease. She took the time to explain everything during the appointment and addressed all my questions with patience. The clinic itself was clean, modern, and well-organized, and the staff were friendly and efficient. I truly appreciated how smooth the entire process was. If you’re looking for a skilled and compassionate dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Liu and the team at Chambers Family Dental. I’ll definitely be returning for future dental care!
Fantastic experience: Just moved to the area and went Chambers Family Dentistry because of a recommendation from a neighbor. I am so happy and relieved to have found a dentist that is as good as my wonderful dentist of 28 years that I had to leave when we moved. Chambers is friendly, helpful, thorough, clean-everything you could want. I would whole heartedly recommend them to a friend.
Fantastic experience: I love Chambers Family Dentistry. I have been a patient there for 14 years and had a tremendous amount of dental care. It has always been a good experience.
Fantastic experience: I am admittedly not the easiest patient to keep up with and will fall out of communication from time to time. But when I needed help with a broken temporary crown, Dr. Chambers rolled out the red-carpet and attended to my needs immediately and without question. He and his staff have my sincere appreciation.
Fantastic experience: Chambers family dentistry is the best. Friendly staff that knows what they're doing and takes care of your chompers. Go there, you won't regret it!
Negative experience: Be careful, you never know when they are trying to charge you more money. I gave this place three opportunities and the three times they tried to charge me more. I just went for a cleaning and they did what they wanted to do.
