Fantastic experience: Dr. Maneesha is great and is now my favorite dental place. I've always had anxiety going to the dentist, but they really go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Every member of the staff is awesome. They also did a super job on fixing up my teeth. Had 3 crowns and several fillings.
Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about Dr. M and her staff.
Fantastic experience: I'm not sure I can say enough AMAZING THINGS about our experience with this dentist's office. The front staff is STELLAR, very personable, helpful, professional, and incredibly welcoming for my family and I as new patients. The dental hygenist team was fantastic and the dentist is a superstar! I loved how much data they logged for our teeth, and was fascinated with the technology they used to take a comprehensive exam of our teeth! Megan took care of my teeth, and even had to do a relatively deep and intensive clean which could have been uncomfortable - but was not at all!! She was gentle and thorough, and I had zero issues or discomfort!! That's WOW factor for me! We just moved to Lakeland area, and we've DEFINITELY found our new dental home!!
This is so GREAT to hear! Thank you for taking the time to leave this awesome review!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Maneesha of Family Dentistry of Lakekand is great. She is very kind, and caring. She is gentle and does a great job in my small mouth. I come out of her office with a big smile and my teeth feel very clean and bright. And all of her staff is delightful.

Fantastic experience: I have just moved to the Lakeland area and was extremely nervous when looking for a new dentist. I have had negative experiences in the past with dentists that neglected my care which has now left me with extreme anxiety when going in for a cleaning. I googled “best woman dentist in Lakeland” and Dr. Maneesha’s office came up as number one. THANK YOU GOOGLE!! I cannot explain how amazing this office is. From the front desk staff, hygienists, and Dr. M herself, everyone is incredibly kind and welcoming. I will be visiting her office for as long as I possibly can, as I’m sure I will not find another office like theirs!! Love you guys!!!!
This is so AWESOME to hear! Thank you, thank you!!

Fantastic experience: This was my first visit to office and i absolutely loved it! The staff were friendly and welcoming. Austin was amazing - such a great guy and even better hygienist!
We are so glad to hear this.. thank you for taking the time to leave us 5 stars!!
Fantastic experience: I initially felt nervous since it had been a while since my last dental visit, but it turned out to be such a wonderful experience. Austin was kind, knowledgeable, and really made me feel at ease throughout my entire appointment. Dr. Maneesha has a genuine kindness that you can feel the moment she walks into the room. I truly felt cared for from start to finish. I will definitely be recommending this office to friends and family! Thank you, Austin!!
Thank you so much for the awesome review and for taking the time to give us back such wonderful feedback!!
Fantastic experience: Everyone at Family Dentistry of Lakeland was amazing! Dr. Maneesha made sure I felt comfortable and Shari did an amazing job with my cleaning. The women at the front desk broke down the costs for me so there was no confusion and made sure I was taken care of. Very glad I chose to go Dr. Maneesha and her team. Thanks again!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review!
Fantastic experience: Every employee here made my experience so comfortable, from the lady at the from desk who immediately greeted me with a smile, to all the staff for making me feel at ease. Dr Maneesha and the hygienist Terri were awesome, and the receptionist all contributed to me having a great experience.
Thank you so much, we love to hear it!
Fantastic experience: My first visit was this morning. I was very please with the office environment, every staffer that I spoke with was pleasant. My hygienist, Shari, was an effiecient worker, explaining each step she was doing. Dr. Chigurupathi was also very pleasant and explain why I need to return for a crown :-( I will be back neck week to get started on that process.
Thanks so much, we love the feedback!
Fantastic experience: I have, unfortunately, had quite a lot of dental work in my life (a lot of experience with dentists) and due to my previous dentist’s retirement, I have recently started seeing Maneesha Chigurupati and her dental clinic. I am extremely pleased with both the professionalism and the kindness that she and her staff have exhibited every time I’ve been there. Efficient, highly skilled, and personable! Just the combination I love to see in medical practitioners. I would not hesitate to recommend them for any dental work you may be contemplating or needing. Richard Joyce
We appreciate you and the Great review! Thank you so very much
Fantastic experience: Great staff. Very friendly and professional.
Thank you for the 5 star review!
Fantastic experience: We had an urgent situation where my father was just beginning treatment for tongue cancer and needed a last-minute dental cleaning and oral exam. From the moment we contacted this practice, they were incredibly accommodating and compassionate. The entire team treated him with outstanding professionalism, kindness, and respect during a very stressful time for our family. They made sure he was comfortable, took the time to carefully evaluate his oral health, and explained everything clearly and patiently. It’s rare to find a dental office that combines such top-tier clinical care with genuine human warmth, but this practice absolutely delivers on both. We are deeply grateful for the way they cared for him, and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
This is so great to hear! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this awesome review.
Fantastic experience: The staff is super friendly. The appointments are always quick and efficient. Love this place.
Thanks so much for the 5 stars!
Fantastic experience: I would love to express ...that I've been in a lot of dental offices in my life...but I need to admit that the outstanding performance consistently sets the standard in this office... I would want to thank especialy Shari... What you delivered speaks for itself. You don't just meet expectations. You redefine them and the quality of your work is incredible and leaves a lasting impression. God bless you always And cannot wait for my next visit... USN VETERAN BERRIOS

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and compassionate. They charge a fair price for their services.
Thank you for the great review!
Fantastic experience: Best dental office in Lakeland! This was my second visit and it was every bit as Good as the first. Not a lot of time spent waiting there.....I walked in the door and was placed in the chair for my teeth cleaning! Ultra modern equipment and imaging. The staff was very professional and courteous. And best of all my teeth feel very clean after my cleaning! I highly recommend Family Dentistry of Lakeland. ❤️
Thank you so much for the great review!
Fantastic experience: I am not a patient here but when i was looking for a new dentist, Jennifer, the receptionist, was very helpful in explaining the difference in insurance. If my insurance was in network with them i would've chose this dental office based on the great experience with the phone call alone.
Thank you do much for your kind words, Teyannah! We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, so happy to hear this!
Fantastic experience: I received some of the best advice and information about my teeth and how they look in x-rays, scans along with cleaning. Most wonderful advice and information to look forward to my future appointments.
Thank you so much for great review, we love to hear it!
Fantastic experience: I had an outstanding experience at this dental office! From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional. The office itself is spotless and has a very calming atmosphere, which immediately put me at ease. The dentist was thorough, gentle, and took the time to explain everything clearly, making sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire visit. I really appreciated how attentive and patient everyone was they truly care about their patients. Scheduling was easy, wait times were minimal, and the overall level of care exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for top-quality dental care and a genuinely positive experience!
This review means so much! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: My first encounter was calling the office. I was met with a very knowledgeable and caring person who listened to my concerns and connected me with the right person who could best meet my needs. When I arrived, I felt relaxed. The office is very efficient without being hurried. That’s important when it comes to healthcare. My visit with Shari, hygienist, was very pleasant. Her work was comprehensive and thorough. She was sensitive to my condition and did not cause the least bit of discomfort. I’m looking forward to my future appointments with Dr Maneesha whom I met briefly. She is so nice!
Thank you for taking the time to write this great review! We love to hear it, it means so much!
Fantastic experience: This is a very nice office, the staff are very friendly, courteous and professional. I highly recommend Dr.Maneesha’s clinic
Thank you for taking the time to give us a great review!
Fantastic experience: I am terrified of the dentist! I had the BEST experience here and can not say enough good things. From the sweet and very knowledgeable girl who took my call initially to the hygienist to the dentist! Everything was explained to me thoroughly on what was being done and what needed to be done. My hygienist was gentle and took her time with me during the x-ray part! I felt at ease from the first phone call. Thank you for being awesome! I am happy to say I have found my dental home! I’m actually excited to get started on the long overdue work that I have been putting off!! If I could give Ten stars I would.
Thank you for the great review! We are so glad you had the best experience!!
Fantastic experience: Amazing dental office, works great with the VA outpatient care. I felt very comfortable and I received five star quality care throughout the entire consult. Update: 03 march 2026 I would like to give credit to my dental hygienist Shari. Despite many dental concerns I currently have, She provided excellent pain-free and educational care. Best cleaning I’ve ever had. Please give this business a try if you’re a Veteran looking for community care. They work very well with the VA and are informed on VA policies.
Thank you! We appreciate you so much!!!
Negative experience: Terrible experience here. Do not recommend. Found Dr. Maneesha to be rude and impatient with my concerns regarding the cavities she filled. I had 8 cavities filled at once hence my ignorance but as a doctor she should have known better and not proceeded with so many at once. Caused me great pain for months and significantly changed my bite and then blamed it on my teeth grinding. Saw the other dentist there who informed me that the work done was not up to standards due to not removing all of the cavitie so needs to be done again. Pricing was deceiving as well. My new treatment plan there states I need work that I don't need as I have been to another dentist for second opinion on all this. This only positive thing I can say is the front office staff and office manager is very kind and the other dentist there is honest. And if yes I truly have been there as I have the bill to prove. Patient BEWARE.
We take feedback seriously and strive to provide high-quality dental care in a respectful and transparent environment.

Fantastic experience: I have always had dental anxiety but this office may very well cure me of that! From the moment you walk in to the goodbyes as you leave everyone is kind, caring and knowledgeable. I feel very comfortable in the care of Dr. Maneesha, Dr. Malik and all the staff. Thank you for the professionalism and care you give to every patient.
Thank you so very much for the kind words! We appreciate you.
Fantastic experience: My first visit was really great. The staff is super friendly and efficient and I was made to feel welcome and comfortable. The cleaning was pain free and thorough even though I have gum disease I had a great experience. Dr. Maneesha is top notch. I am covered through the VA. So they know how to work with Veterans and the VA. This Veteran approves! I can't recommend them highly enough.
Thank you for the GREAT review! We appreciate it and you!!
Fantastic experience: Awesome staff and very professional. Dr. Maneesha is amazing and has a great personality to match. I would highly recommend this office if you're looking for any dental work that needs to be performed. You will not find a better dentist nor staff than at this office. I am very satisfied with all services that have been performed.
Thank you so much for the great review and kind words!!
Fantastic experience: Just to review again...can not say enough how well I'm treated when getting dental work done here. Never been a fan of going to any dentist in the past, but here they care about how I am doing throughout the procedure. Thank you Dr. Maneesha and team!
Thank you!

Megan is GREAT! Thank you for the five stars !
Fantastic experience: I am not a fan of the dentist at all!! They were all so welcoming and the office is very clean and professional. They are very thorough and make sure you understand everything that is happening, step by step. I had Shari, the hygienist, and Dr Malik. They both were amazing and I am glad I finally found a good dentist.
Thank you for the kind words and five star review!
Fantastic experience: Finally found a dentist, after my dentist sold her business. Dr. Maneesha has a wonderful personality and great sense of humor. The dental hygienist, Megan, explained everything. Megan took quite a bit of time with me for x-rays, pictures, and the cleaning. The extra time was due to the first visit. Megan and the whole office staff gets 5 stars review. Dr. Maneesha's staff is the best, since my old dentist.
Thank you so very much for the outstanding review! We love to have fun and to make it a great experience!! Glad you found us..
Fantastic experience: Everyone here is Awesome! My forever dentist! I love the ladies at the front, they are knowledgeable and super friendly! Nicole did a great cleaning and the doctor is always fun!!

Fantastic experience: I have major anxiety when it comes to the dentist. I finally booked an appointment, and even though I cried 3 times while I was there LOL everything was so amazing! The staff was so welcoming & Dr. Maneesha made everything seem like not a big deal & It was no problem at all and we're going to get everything fix. They also didn't try to GOUGE me on prices which is very relieving! I have another appointment in 2 weeks and I honestly am looking forward to it! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Maneesha and her staff are amazing. I felt completely at ease with them .
Thank you for the great review!
Fantastic experience: Best dentists I’ve ever used, coming from someone that considers going to the dentist a “spa day”. The entire team has been incredible, from the front desk admins, Shari the hygienist, and Dr Maneesha herself. I did lots of research before choosing my new dentistry team and I scored a gem with this team. Thanks so much!
Thank you for choosing us after doing your research and for your kind words! What a compliment that is!
Fantastic experience: I was very impressed from the moment I walked in the door. So glad they took my United Health Care Medicare. I laughed and had such a welcoming experience. Thank you
We are so glad to hear you had a good experience! We love to laugh and have fun!!
Fantastic experience: Amazing Staff and Dentist! They always make you feel welcomed and feel like family! They provide a fun environment and well educate patients! I was well educated during my cleaning with Shari and felt extremely comfortable the entire appointment! Highly recommend this dental practice to anyone!
We strive to make every patient feel welcomed and comfortable. Thank you for the five stars!!
Fantastic experience: Professionally friendly and personable Staff; never a bad-attitude, very relaxed environment. They are genuinely interested and sincere in their engagements with Patients. The collective knowledge of Dentistry is amazing and practiced with gentility, grace and artistry. The front-desk staff really know their business as well, especially with insurance. The facility is clean and comfortable with snacks, magazines and WiFi provided for those waiting. The dental-infrastructure is very modern with the latest in cutting-edge technology. Everyone is welcomed and the location is very convenient with plenty of parking all around.
We appreciate you and this great review!! Thank you
Fantastic experience: The entire staff is extremely polite, friendly and professional, including "Dr. Maneesha". There is no effort to "upsell" anything, the appointments run on time and the service is excellent. Dental visits can be stressful for many but I cannot imagine one feeling that way after a visit here. I am a satisfied client and intend to use this office for my dental care as long as I have teeth in my mouth!
Thank you Derek, we are happy to provide you with quality dental services and look forward to treating you again in the future.
Fantastic experience: Blossom and Bubbles and ButterCup was amazing at the front desk and it’s a very wholesome environment and I felt loved.
Thank you so much for the kind words, EVERYONE here wants you to feel loved!!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Maneesha has a kind, friendly, and very competent staff. She is a genuinely caring dentist, aware of my dental anxiety and provided the comfort needed and I certainly appreciated that during my recent procedure. Sara, her assistant, is most personable, as is Shari, the hygienist, who my husband and I both find to be extremely conscientious, thorough, and very detail oriented. My 99 year old mother-in-law is always treated with so much compassion and respect when she is having a dental procedure in this office, as well. Thank you for providing dental care, kindness and compassion to my family.❤️
Thank you so much. We are truly grateful for the trust you and your family place in our team!
Negative experience: I woke up with a soar throat/caugh so i couldn't make it, next appointment I had there was a car wreck in front of me and I called to tell them about it so they said they had to let me go as a patient. Disappointed at first but it was actually a blessing in disguise because I found a much better dentist.
Thank you for your feedback. We take all reviews seriously; however, we are unable to find any record of you as a patient in our system. We would like the opportunity to learn more and address your concerns. Please contact our office.

This is such great news! We are so glad you had a great experience! Shari is awesome!!
Fantastic experience: I hadn’t been to the dentist in years due to anxiety, but Family Dentistry of Lakeland completely changed that for me. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed. Nicole, the hygienist, was outstanding. She explained everything clearly, made sure I was comfortable the entire time, and kept the experience completely pain-free. Jennifer at the front desk was incredibly helpful, walking me through my treatment plan and the associated costs in a way that was easy to understand. Erica brought humor and personality to the visit—she had me laughing about song lyrics and even gave me tips on how to prevent chest wrinkles as we age! And Dr. Chigurupati was knowledgeable, patient, and took the time to explain my care thoroughly. The entire team made what I expected to be a stressful experience feel surprisingly easy. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for the awesome review! We are so excited you felt welcomed and that you had an outstanding visit!
Fantastic experience: I went in for the first time today and had to have a crown. She truly has some wonderful staff and she is an amazing dentist.
Thank you! We are so glad you have a GREAT first visit! We appreciate the kind words!
Fantastic experience: I’m not necessarily a big fan of going to the dentist, but since my first experience with this office and its staff I don’t mind it so much anymore. I was referred here by the VA and each visit has been very pleasant. Each staff member is friendly, calls you by name, and actually takes the time to talk with you. It’s great that this office works with the VA. They provide excellent care and service to each and every patient. I will continue my dental care here for as long as I live in the area.
Thank you so much for the GREAT review! We love to hear it!

Fantastic experience: I love this office. Janelle and Jennifer are the best. Erica is nice too when shes not hidden. The doctor is great and always does good work! Great office
Thank you for the 5 stars, we love to hear it!
Fantastic experience: luse to see Dr Chris at this location. Since I dislike going to the dentist, shameful it has been a few years since going. Walking in the door and being greeted by Jennifer and also speaking to her on the phone, she was very polite and reassuring I had nothing to worry about. Nichole, my hygienist, talked me through every step of the process of what she was doing. She was as gentle as she could be. She made me feel as comfortable as I could sitting in her chair. Then meeting Dr Chigurupati, DDS. I had no expectations since I loved Dr Chris but I was definitely caught off guard. She was funny, kind, beautiful and I felt as if she really cared about ME and I wasn't just a number or another person sitting in her chair. She made me feel very reassured that my up coming appointment would not be nearly as bad as what I was expecting it to be. I will be going every six months, as I should lol. The entire staff was very nice and made my appointment not as nearly scary as l was inside. My son also goes there and he counts the days until he can have his teeth cleaned again (weird, I know). I give my experience and the staff 100%! Sincerely, One happy patient Melissa S :)
We are so glad you felt at ease-that's the experience we aim to create! Thank you so much for the awesome review!!
Fantastic experience: I never have to worry when I see Dr Maneesha. No matter what I’m having done, she always makes sure the experience is phenomenal. She makes sure you’re comfortable throughout the process and is always good for some good laughs. Her team is top notch!!!
We are so glad Dr. Maneesha and her team always make it a great experience!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Maneesha is delightful! She answers every question I have and makes sure she explains what she’s doing every step of the way. The team all together are amazing as well! 10/10
Thank you for sharing your experience, we are so glad to hear it!
Fantastic experience: I've lived a lot of places and Dr. Maneesh is my favorite dentist I've ever had. How often does a person.actually enjoy a trip to the dentist? When I called to make an appointment the receptionist was cheerful and welcoming, and when I went to my appointment I discovered that every single employee is just as wonderful. Both my hygienist Shari and Dr. Maneesh were gentle, thorough, knowledgeable, caring, and efficient. This was my first visit and I needed a deep cleaning. To my surprise they were able to do the first two quadrants at the same visit! Shari even called the next day to see how I was doing. I'm grateful I found this practice and can't recommend it highly enough.
We're thrilled to hear your visit went well and that we made your experience great! Our team works hard to provide quality care in a comfortable environment. Thank you for sharing—we look forward to serving you again!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing experience. It’s a very relaxing environment, everyone is kind and soft spoken and alleviates any trauma you might’ve experienced at a previous practice.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so glad you had a great experience with us at Family Dentistry of Lakeland. We truly value your trust and look forward to seeing you at your next visit.
Fantastic experience: Once again. Another Home run job! I showed up, by 2:05 (2p appointment) I was sitting in the chair. For someone that seems to have a million things going on at all times, maintaining a tight time schedule is very important to me. Not to mention, my teeth cleaning from Miss Shari was very detailed. I truly wish the VA would advertise gems like y’all. Thank you ! Shawn
Shawn, Thank you so much for the awesome review!! We are so glad you found us too!!
Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough wonderful things about this dental office! From the moment I walked in, I felt so welcomed and at ease. Dr. Maneesha is so sweet and friendly! She made what could’ve been a nerve wracking experience feel completely comfortable. Ms. Shari is just as amazing and made my experience calming and personalized, I truly felt cared for every step of the way! Every single staff member I interacted with was so sweet and attentive. I’m so grateful I found this place!
Thank you for the kind words, we appreciate it so much!
Fantastic experience: Great experience with all of the staff. Dr. Maneesha is definitely the best dentist I have ever been to! Very thoughtful and concerned about any pain, etc. All the ladies very nice and helpful! Such a refreshing and positive vibe!

They have been an honest dentist and truly serve you as a client. They knew of our insurance time lines and squeezed us in and worked hands on to help us meet the deadline and get the work done. Can’t beat that kind of care and service.
Thank you for recommending us to family an friends. This is the highest compliment. Thank you so much!!
Fantastic experience: Yesterday was my first visit to Family Dentistry of Lakeland and I was VERY impressed. Dr. Chigurupati is great and the dental hygienist, Shari, was incredible! The cleaning was, by far, superior to any cleaning that I've had since I've been in Lakeland. I would give them more than 5 stars if possible AND I encourage you to contact them if you want professional, thorough dental care!
Thank you so very much for the outstanding review!!! WE LOVE to hear this..
Fantastic experience: ⸻ I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Maneesha! She is kind, gentle, and has a calm, fun personality that immediately puts you at ease. I’ve always been a little nervous about going to the dentist, but she made the whole experience so comfortable—and best of all, completely pain-free! She took her time, explained everything clearly, and truly cares about her patients. You can tell she loves what she does and is really good at it. I left with a healthy smile and zero anxiety. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dentist who’s not only skilled but also genuinely sweet and thoughtful! Janelle
This is such a compliment. Thank you for taking the time to leave a great review!!
Fantastic experience: I'm a person that has always dreaded going to the dentist. But, Family Dentistry of Lakeland changed all of that. This was my third appointment and once again, it was a stress-free, glad-I-went experience. And, this isn't just my story. A couple of months ago, I told a couple at Access Church about FDofL and they told me at my small group last Friday morning that their first visit was wonderful and thanked me for the recommendation.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are so glad you had a great experience. We look forward to seeing you in 6 months!
Fantastic experience: Friendly atmosphere, great staff, and Dr Chigurupati is an outstanding dentist that provides superior care! Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for the awesome review!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Manesha & her staff are all excellent at their craft. Appointments are always on time. Everyone is friendly & helpful. All questions are fully answered & explained in as much detail as you need. Cleanings are easy & comfortable. Exams are also. Any work that needs to be done is beyond awesome & without discomfort or pain. Anytime a friend needs a dentist, I always recommend Dr. Manesha. She's kind & caring, and she does wonderful work. You feel welcomed & at ease as soon as you walk in the door. Dr. Manesha gives you an honest evaluation and doesn't want to do work that doesn't need to be done. Please don't hesitate to make an appointment with Dr. Manesha. She & her staff ROCK!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts about our practice, Dawn! We are so appreciative of you as a patient and thank you for the recommendations!
Fantastic experience: First visit. Staff is very professional, and knowledgeable. Made us feel very comfortable. Best cleaning we’ve had since we moved from Michigan.The technology is state of the art. Dr. Chigurupati has assembled a great team.
This is the BEST review.. We love to hear it!! Thank you so much..
Fantastic experience: THE BEST AND MOST COMFORTABLE DENTAL EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER, EVER HAD IN MY ENTIRE EXISTENCE. HOW SO? First and foremost, it is a whole vibe at Family Dentistry of Lakeland, the staff is very hospitable, polite, and thorough. Secondly, I fear needles and just the whole experience of the grinding and probing but to my surprise I didn’t feel not one thing getting my fillings. Makes me wonder if any of the other dentists applied the local anesthetic effectively to prevent me from feeling the pain of dental work. Nonetheless, I felt like the most important patient in the world!!! My comfort was a top priority and they exceeded my expectations. Family Dentistry of Lakeland is the only dental office I need for all of my dental care!!! DR. Maneesha Chigurupati is a Legend and you heard it here first!!!! 10/10⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you so much for your kind review! We appreciate you and glad you had a great experience!

Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: Megan is always on time and very professional. My mouth feels so clean and there is a noticeable difference in how white my teeth are. Thank you!
We love to keep your smile beautiful! Thank you for trusting us.
Fantastic experience: Maneesha and her staff has over and over exceeded my expectations on what a standard practice should be. Friendly, comforting, professionalism are just a few of many positives i can say about the staff. The work is excellent and surprisingly fast. Most of all they will fight for you to get the care needed. (Ret Army Sgt)

Fantastic experience: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an absolutely amazing experience at Family Dentistry of Lakeland! From the friendly and welcoming front desk staff to the thorough and gentle cleaning with Shari, every part of my visit was exceptional. Dr. Maneesha is incredibly kind, caring, and informative—she took the time to explain everything and made me feel completely at ease. I highly recommend her for any dental work you may need. I’m so happy to have found my new dental home!
Amanda, we are so happy to hear this, thank you for the wonderful review!
Fantastic experience: I recently had a filling at this office, and Dr. Maneesha did a wonderful job making me feel as calm and comfortable as it's possible to be while you are having teeth drilled. I have been her patient for about a year, and she and her staff are absolutely top notch. They're also really funny and ready to laugh with you!
Hopefully we eased your fears. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: 01/17/25 update: It seems I cannot write an additional review, so I'll just update this one. I just got off the phone with Jennifer regarding an insurance/billing question. She was great! She and I worked together to resolve an EOB inconsistency and it happened to work out in my favor. It's so nice to speak to someone in medical billing who is actually happy to help. Thanks Jennifer! I’ve been with Family Dentistry for about 7 years and always enjoyed my experience. Since Dr. Maneesha took over the practice, I have continued to be impressed. The staff is friendly and professional, and my routine cleanings have been thorough. Most recently, I had a tiny chip from a bottom front tooth that needed repair. They got me in quickly (the next day!), took great care to address my concerns and fixed the tooth as good as new. I was gently reminded not to use my teeth as tools. A terrible habit, I know! I couldn’t ask for more from a dentist!
Thank you for sharing your experience at our practice! We are so happy to learn that you are happy with your care and the results. Please recommend us to your family and friends in the Lakeland area!
Fantastic experience: This was my first visit to Dr Maneesha’s office, and I felt comfortable. I love my hygienist Shari. I appreciate Dr Maneesha’s manner: This is my new dental home!
Thank you, we are so glad you are here!
Fantastic experience: This is the best dentist office in Lakeland! They do great work, are caring, knowledgeable, and gentle. Shari is the best hygienist EVER! Convenient location too. My wife and I started coming here years ago after a different dentist tried to sell us on molar extractions that we didn’t need!
Thank you for sharing this with us!
Fantastic experience: Dr Manisha placed two crowns for me. Both she and her assistant we're gentle and careful of my needs. Both crowns look and feel great. Only one adjustment at the time of placement was needed. The bite is perfect.
We truly pride ourselves on doing great work. Thank you!
