Wood Family Dentistry

Experiencia fantástica: Great office. Kind and caring dentist, hygienist and front office. And they listen to concerns!

Experiencia fantástica: My favorite dentist of all time! Patient, thorough explanation, sense of humor! The entire staff is wonderful

Experiencia negativa: Been a 30 year customer and severing ties due to lack of thoroughness and professionalism. Business has been sold and peeps are not up to previous standards, unfortunately.

Experiencia fantástica: I have had nothing but exceptional care at this office. I primarily see Dr. Schicktanz, but have also seen Dr. Wood when I have come in last minute. Everyone from the front desk staff, to the hygienists, to the dentists are phenomenal. Dr. S is great at explaining the treatment plan in detail and easing any anxieties or questions I have. They don’t try to nickel and dime you and if they recommend any work to be done, they will show you exactly why. I recommend this office to everyone!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent experience. Great service from everyone, from secretaries, technicians, to Dr. Wood. Super clean and safe environment. The perfect place for my dental care. Thanks

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Wood and his staff are great! They go above and beyond! I have been going to Dr. Wood since the late 1980s! He is a fantastic dentist, has an up-to-date 3 D scanning machine, and stays up-to-date with dental procedures and surgeries. His assistants and hygienists are so good. His office assistant Terri is also wonderful. I highly recommend them! Dr. Wood has a new dental partner who is also great! I saw Taylor today (1/21/25) for teeth cleaning and she did such a wonderful job! Ditto for 5/14/25 and 8/28/25! Ditto for 3/25/2026. Hope is a wonderful dental hygienist!

Experiencia fantástica: The WOOD DENTAL Team are great , working together and keeping you in the loop! No Surprises!!! Absolutely!!! The Wood Team is always doing their best. So much so that I look forward to my next appointment in September. Thank you all!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Very friendly staff amazing service

Experiencia positiva: Just moved to Tempe from Mesa and Scheduled an appointment here for the first time. The receptionist wasn’t to polite. Asked me to do paper work and then asked me where I worked. I replied I own a vintage clothing shop in Tempe and for some reason she thought that was funny. Also tried to rush me into a payment plan and receive my dental work same day. Wasn’t expecting that at all, I wasn’t expecting to be rushed and laughed at for my first dentist appointment here. Her primary concern should have making my first time at this establishment a great one, not to rush money out of me. I have insurance so what’s the rush? Other than that, the Dentist himself and his assistant were great and I didn’t want to leave this review because a review would effect the whole Practice , but it’s my life and my dentist experience and I didn’t enjoy it. So I have to schedule to have my work done some where else. Sad because I live nearby, now I have to travel and be inconvenienced.

Experiencia negativa: My cleaning was good. The low score is because of the rude front desk staff. They forgot I was waiting for my husband and they proceeded to talk about me being bossy and demanding because I asked them to forward X-rays to dentist in another state and because I had questions about the type of X-rays I had. When I asked if there was a problem with my request they scrambled upon realizing I was still there. One of them actually tried to tell me they were talking about someone else... Someone who had the same request as me. Very unprofessional.

Experiencia fantástica: Great dentist & staff. I have been going to Dr Wood for many years & would not go anywhere else! I love Hope & the entire staff!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Wood and Dr Schicktanz are some of the most capable and skilled dentists in the valley. I have been their patient for five years and have recommended many family and friends to them in that time. What sets them apart is that they practice with integrity. I originally came to them for a second opinion for a dental scaling, and their hygienists were able to prevent it from being necessary. Since then, regular appointments have been a breeze and my teeth have been kept in great shape. They have good availability for urgent visits and will make sure you are never uncomfortable at your appointments. On the one occasion where a dental procedure didn't go perfectly (at no fault of them), they were available and willing to help correct the issue, even going so far as to comp a specialist visit. They have gone above and beyond to make me and my family lifetime patients. I would recommend both Dr Wood and Dr Schicktanz with the highest praise, both as dentists and as a dental office.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing care, DR Tony is very helpful

Experiencia fantástica: Love that all employees are very nice and knowledgeable. Would recommend anyone looking for a dentist to check them out.

Experiencia fantástica: Staff is very friendly. It feels very welcoming.

Experiencia fantástica: Rudy was fabulous, also Everyone is so Profesional at Wood Family Dentistry, And They Treat You Like Family To. You Will Always Leave Their Office With A Smile... Love Them All.

Experiencia fantástica: Always amazing my pleasure meeting Hope she did an amazing job and always appreciate them for what they all do and also can't wait for them to see our son

Experiencia fantástica: Wood Family Dentistry provides the best dental care and support any patient needs! I am very thankful for their attention to detail and expertise for more than. 20 years so far.

Experiencia fantástica: I'm a new patient and Wood Denistry is a fabulous office. Dr. Wood is very Professional in every way His staff and front office are GREAT Ms.Becca his assistant and front office Emily an Cathleen are Professional I would highly recommend this dental office Ron Alben

Experiencia fantástica: It truly doesn't get any better than Dr. Wood and his professional staff. I appreciate the way they perform and support you.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Dr. Wood for over 30 years. The service and care from his entire staff has always been consistently great. The atmosphere in the office is soothing. Dr. Wood always takes his time and I don’t feel rushed. Dr. Wood, kudos to you and your staff love you all.

Experiencia fantástica: Very good appt today for 6 month check up. Staff were very professional, helpful & informative.

Experiencia fantástica: This is the dentist office you've been looking for. The kind of care, attention and connection you get from a non- corporate owned business. No more fear of the dentist. From the front to the back, the whole team is exceptional!!

Experiencia fantástica: Everything was perfect. Friendly and professional. Always a great experience! Dr. Wood and staff are awesome! Hope did a great job!

Experiencia fantástica: Such a great office! Dr. Tony is so kind and professional and all the staff, Serena and Kathleen. My dentist of 40+yrs is retiring and recomended Wood Dentistry, so I trust him, and he was right!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Schicktanz and his assistant are AWESOME! They made my husband super comfortable! Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: These folks were super cool and professional! Ran me through the whole thing and it was lovely

Experiencia fantástica: Love Woods Family Dentistry!!! Incredible and professional staff. They always take great care during my visits and make sure they address all my concerns. I highly recommend them for all your dental needs. Thumbs up

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a patient at Wood Family Dentistry for several years. The care and service there has always been great. Yesterday, I had the best cleaning ever. I believe the dental hygienist’s name was Dana. As I indicated the service has always been great. But this is the first occasion I have take the time to write a review; I felt it was important to do so. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Very caring staff, I recommend this office. I had a crown replaced and I am very happy with the dental work.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been Dr. Wood's patient for twenty two years. He and staff are beyond professional. The entire team is efficient, responsive, and kind. Always consummately on the cutting edge of technology while extending a welcoming environment that feels like the family we have become. There has not been an occassion in over the three past decades that the Wood Dentistry team has not been readily available to assist in an emergency. Today was a day for ritual cleanings. My Dental Hygienist, Sharon, is one of the best. My relationship with Wood Family Dentistry remains one of my greatest blessings. I will always be thankful for the decades of care.

Experiencia fantástica: I got a diagnosis from two other dentists that I should have a broken molar removed. Not satisfied, I looked for Dr. Wood's opinion, and he not only investigated it through a physical examination (under anesthesia), but was able to fix it on the spot, preparing for a crown installation and saving me a molar removal. Almost 50 years of experience count a lot. Thank you, Dr. Wood!

Experiencia fantástica: I broke off a crown of my front tooth at the gum line. I made an appointment on line to come in on Monday at 9:10 am. Dr Wood was able to extract my broken tooth and put in a temporary replacement tooth in an hour and I will get my permanent replacement so upset about having a gaping hole in my teeth and now I’m so happy

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to Dr. Wood’s for many years. They keep my teeth in tiptop shape..

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a patient here forever and my wife is also coming here now. Absolutely the best and most honest around!

Experiencia fantástica: I just went in for a cleaning and Taylor was amazing. She was so nice and remembered things I told her at my last appointment months ago.

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly and helpful staff. Thorough exam and cleaning. So refreshing to deal with an honest business.

Experiencia negativa: I had my crown replaced. The tech (filling in) who did the temporary crown did not know what she was doing. She put a temp in that protruded up like a ball. I complained and she kept grinding it on the wrong side. Now my temp crown angles down like a cliff. I had to complain on the way out and the gal at counter took me back and ground down the correct high side but could not fix the 45 degree angle on the back of the temp crown. The tech also dropped my temp crown with cement on it into my mouth and had to dig around to find it! Worst experience on a crown. Not the usual.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Woods has been my dentist forever! I can still see my baby teeth on past x-rays and always have a great cleaning

Experiencia fantástica: I don’t know how to thank Dr. Wood and the whole staff at Wood Family Dentistry are just so welcoming and gentle! The transformation is amazing and better than I could’ve ever imagined! Wish I could add extra stars! I’ve had my fair share of terrible experiences and failures from other dentists .. this is the only practice I trust!! I trust them so much that I fly in from CT to have work done! I can’t recommend them enough!!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Woods is awesome! He is the only Dentist I'm not afraid to see. Lol

Experiencia fantástica: Have been looking for a Dentist in Tempe for a while and after several not great experiences have finally found a home with Wood Family Dental. Everyone is kind and helpful and Dr Schicktanz goes the extra mile. Would highly recommend to anyone in need of a good dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: March 2025 Dr Wood has been my family dentist for over 16 years! One particular hygienist Suzanne, is amazing! She’s extremely knowledgeable and gentle. I absolutely love Dr Wood! Highly recommend! This office will not disappoint you! They treat you like family., and the office is very clean. gayle-

Experiencia fantástica: My family and always get excellent care on our dental visits. Today's visit was awesome! Front office, Dentist and dental hygentest always gives us best care and services for our healthy teeth. Thank you sincerely Woods family dentistry. Patty B.

Experiencia fantástica: I don’t really know how to start because I don’t usually do reviews .. I went into the appt really nervous. First time in the office. They took their time, heard my concerns, answered all of my questions, I know my options and next steps, they fixed one of my problem areas and I left feeling 100X better

Experiencia fantástica: Great, as always. Excellent treatment. I've been a patient for 36 years. Would not think of changing. Got teeth cleaned again today. Terrific service as always. Been a patient now for 38 years!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Fred Wood is the type of dentist that you can feel very comfortable visiting. He's a kind and gentle dentist who always takes the time to explain a procedure before commencing to insure that you understand and are comfortable with the dental work / procedure. Having been to other dentists who are rough, don't explain what they are doing or why, I feel so much better with Dr. Wood! He's been a long time resident of Tempe where he practices so I know he's going to be here for me and my children when we are in need of great dentistry services. His team is like he is as well, they are friendly and interested in you as people as well as clients. I could not recommend a dentist anymore than I can for Dr. Wood!

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing dentists for all needs. Great for kids and adults, wouldn't go anywhere else! Dr Wood is so friendly and so is everyone employed by him. All around wonderful place.

Experiencia fantástica: This was probably the best experience I have had at a dentist. Dr.Schicktanz explained the anatomy of my teeth in a way I have never had a dentist take the time to do. Support staff friendly & helpful. I would highly recommend this office.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been seeing Dr. Wood for nearly 25 years. The front office has always been really friendly and Dr. Wood is excellent at what he does. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I recently had an emergency on a Saturday evening after Thanksgiving. I put in a call to Dr Wood at that time asking how soon they could fit me into their schedule. They told me to come in to the office at 11:00 on Monday morning. My situation was unique and very serious. An 8-year-old implant, that was installed at Tufts University in Boston Massachusetts, had come loose and was about to fall out. Much has changed to the hardware that was used 8 years ago and my implants were beginning to wear out. Dr Wood took his personal time to research and find the correct hardware to remedy the situation. What he did for me was nothing short of miraculous. He found the correct hardware and corrected my situation that morning, I felt like I had won the lottery! I am so impressed with the entire staff and his expertise, everyone is very professional and caring. I had driven from Prescott Arizona. It is well worth it to drive to Tempe for their professionalism and expertise. Nobody could possibly do what they do to help me. I would highly recommend everyone who has implants and needs help to use their services. I will continue to use Wood Family Dentistry in the future for all my needs and you should also. Thank you for your continued support Doctor Wood!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been one of his patients for more then 25 years... And I would recommend him to anyone looking for a dentist! His staff are also really great to my family and I!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a patient of Dr. Wood for over 25 years, and I have always enjoyed my visits. He and his staff are very warm and welcoming.

Experiencia fantástica: My visit with Dr. Wood today involved a coronation and the entire staff made me feel like I was the only one in the office! Dentistry is a business of perfection and when it's off you know. Today, they a perfect job! They always do!

Experiencia fantástica: Hygienists at the office are awesome. So personable. It’s fun to go in and chat. Plus they do a great, painless job.

Experiencia fantástica: The dentist and staff were very friendly, knowledgeable, and kind. Highly recommend this practice.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a patient of Dr. Wood for just over 40 years! He jokes that I am one of his “first patients” and he has charting on me to prove it! Wood Family Dentistry is the absolute best. The entire staff is friendly, warm, attentive and most of them have been with Dr. Wood for decades (which should tell you a lot). Hygienists are fantastic; I have had Marcia for years (love her) and the last couple of times I have had Shelly, who is also wonderful (they ALL are). Susan (office manager), wears many hats and has been with Dr. Wood since the beginning. She is efficient, knowledgeable, fun & kind. She and Dr. Wood are like family to me (and my husband). Dr. Wood is a friendly, cool, upright, laid back, wonderful man and he’s a damned good dentist with a gentle touch. Over the years he has performed root canals, done fillings, crowns (all top-notch work) and has kept my mouth healthy and me at ease every visit. He has a great sense of humor & warm demeanor and stays involved in the Tempe community. If you are looking for the REAL deal, a time tested, solid practice (and are tired of pop-up dental offices that try to “up-sell” or use unprofessional approaches just to get you to dish out more cash), Wood Family Dentistry is where you will find your home. It’s WORTH it to get PPO insurance (if you have that choice) and pick your dentist. Even cash pay is very reasonable if you are looking for a cleaning and exam (and are not insured). With Wood & staff, you will actually look forward to your 6 month check up and cleaning!

Experiencia fantástica: I have always enjoyed seeing Dr. Woods and his staff!! They always have a spot available to see you, I've had fillings, crowns, root canals, an implant and I'm always happy with the finished product!! Dr. Woods does excellent work, I'd highly recommend him for any if your dental needs!! Denise, the Dental Hygienist does a great job cleaning your teeth!!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been coming here for a very long time and I am always satisfied by the courtesy and professionalism by everyone on staff!

Experiencia fantástica: Super welcoming and nice, have been coming here for years and they are awesome.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Wood and his team are outstanding. They are always looking out for my best interests. Very professional, gentle and kind. I’ve been coming to Dr. Wood for almost 40 yrs.

Experiencia fantástica: I haven't been to the dentist is a couple years and this was my first visit. I d efinitely felt comfortable with everyone and the environment was great! I would highly recommend them :)

Experiencia fantástica: Wood Family Dentistry is the BEST dentist i’ve ever been to. I left my old dentist after a bad experience and came here. I have had so many issues with my teeth and since I was little I’ve always hated the dentist. But here, it has been nothing but smiles, good vibes, and amazing customer service. Dr. Schicktanz is the kindest dentist i’ve ever had. He explains things thoroughly and always clarifies if I have any questions. If i could rate this place a 10 I wouldthank you guys!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Best dentist in town. I have been going to see Dr Wood since college and he is the best!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Dr Wood for 20 years and all that time I've never had a problem. He's by far the best dentist I've ever had

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to this office for many years. Everyone is friendly, and they do great work. The patient is taken into consideration at all times. I would recommend them to anyone. They’re truly the best!

Experiencia fantástica: Great Dentists here and lovely assistants and front desk workers! been going here since i was a kid and haven’t had a bad experience once! definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Terry helps with any and all insurance questions and Suzanne gives an incredible cleaning. Everyone would go the dentist if the practice operated as smoothly as Wood Family Dentistry!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr woods and his staff take care of business. They go great lengths to ensure that their patients receive high quality care. Great atmosphere and smiling faces!

Experiencia fantástica: Very friendly, they always remember my name and give me the best goody bag! Best dentists ever!

Experiencia fantástica: Or favorite dentist! They go out of their way to cater to your needs. They never try to pressure you into dental work. I have been taken advantage of by dentists in the past who recommended lots of unnecessary work to increase their income, and they really harmed the long term health of my teeth. Wood Family Dentistry is great -- they provide top notch service and they never recommend work that is not needed. Thank you!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a patient of Wood Family Dentistry for nearly 40 years and have always had a 5 star experience. Without a doubt it’s the best practice in the Phoenix area as well as all of Arizona. Thank you for making my teeth feel and look great!

Experiencia fantástica: Woods family is a great dentist office. Our family has been going here for years and have nothing but good things to say about the staff and the dentist.

Experiencia fantástica: They are very friendly and do an excellent job. Wood Gamily Dentistry is my number one dentist office to go

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic staff. Haven’t been to dentist in 20yrs. Best dentist ever!

Experiencia fantástica: The best dentist ever! Seriously never had a more caring dentist in my life and the staff is excellent

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to Wood Family Dentistry for 9 years now, and I couldn’t be happier with the care I’ve received. The entire staff is friendly and professional, and they always make sure I’m comfortable during my visits. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely LOVE Wood Family Dentistry! Teri at the front desk is so welcoming and friendly! She knows everyone’s name. I always love talking with her. Taylor is so kind, knowledgeable and explains everything she is doing while cleaning your teeth. Dr. Wood is the BEST! He is so gentle and his work is top notch! I feel part of the family when I come in. I no longer dread going to the dentist! They are the best!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Love the work here and won’t go anywhere else for my dental needs. Be very caring and professional staff. Dr. Wood is a master of the craft and goes above and beyond for dental care. His genuine goal has always been to preserve your teeth rather than opting to go different routes that may be more costly. I’ve seen him for decades and I’ve had a bad history with my teeth that I should’ve lost some by now, but he’s done an amazing job ensuring that’s an absolute last route we’ll take. I can’t thank him enough for the care he’s put into me. Suzanne is super personable and does a thorough job, always ensuring you’re comfortable. She remembers previous chats we’ve had and always wants to know the updates with how my ventures in life have been going. She’s amazing! Terry is wonderful to see when I walk in. Very friendly and has the answers to everything! She’s always been diligent with my appointment reminders and changes when needed. She’ll make sure you know you’re a priority. She’s a wizard with billing and makes sure I understand every aspect of my invoices. When switching insurance providers, she’s helped me price out my visits on personal pay if I needed to do that in the interim. They always have your best interest at heart here. It’s not JUST about your teeth. They’re the best in the business. 10/10 would recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a patient of Wood Family Dentistry for over 8 years. I can't say enough about how caring, skilled and professional this practice is. I've had a root canal, 8 crowns and biyearly cleanings. This is an old school, treat you like family type of practice. The front staff is awesome; dental hygienists are gentle, thorough and friendly and the dentists explain everything exceptionally well, and I never feel rushed or pressured. I highly recommend Wood Family Dentistry for your dental health.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a patient here for 20+ years. Couldn’t imagine going anywhere else. Best staff in the business!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Wood is a Great Dentist. He has a gentle touch that reduces the normal stress I typically in the dentist chair. My Wife and I think he is the Best.

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great cleaning, good conversation & overall wonderful visit today! Taylor is very thorough & very sweet! Front office is always delightful…

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going here for my whole life, and they are always the sweetest! Great staff and very efficient with their time!

Experiencia fantástica: My husband and I have been going here for 4 years for our routine checkups and have had great experience with them. Suzanne is my dental hygienist and she is very friendly. Dr. Schicktanz does a great job explaining the steps of the examination and what they are monitoring on the x-rays in a way that’s easy to understand.

Experiencia negativa: Would not recommend. Changing my 5 stars review to 1. I personally had quite a disappointing experience w dr Wood and a family member had a botched root canaln here. (My routine hygenist was great and will be missed)

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing service & a great team. Dr. Wood is one of the best dentists I’ve had. Judith, Raquel, terry & the rest of the staff are lovely.

Experiencia fantástica: Doctor wood staff and doctor wood's an excellent job to care if my dental need spirit. I've been going to doctor woods for over 40 years and him and his staff and never let me down. They're the best period.

Experiencia fantástica: Doctor Tony Schicktanz helped diagnose my problem and offerred options that best covered a long term solution. The network of people associated with Wood Family Dentistry and their "Star Trek: The Next Generation" level of technology is remarkable. I am very satisfied with their service and I plan to continue using their elite level of dental services.

Experiencia fantástica: My kids had a great dentist experience they were scared going in but the dentist made sure to make them feel comfortable they cane out smiling and happy I highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: My experience at Wood Family Dentistry was very positive - from the friendliness of the receptionist and the competence of the dental hygienist to the skill and professionalism of Dr. Schicktanz. I would definitely recommend both this office and Dr. Schicktanz to my family and friends.

Experiencia fantástica: The procedure was relatively painless. Dr. Schicktanz explained everything he was going to do before he did it...reducing the potential anxiety associated with the procedure. The dental assistant was very good and well trained also.

Experiencia fantástica: As ever A+ to Wood 's Dentistry. I'm always pleased with the personable, efficient and professional service. I have been a patient with Wood Dentistry for many years and my teeth and gums remain healthy and I remain happy with their care.

Experiencia fantástica: AS usual my hygienist did a great job on my teeth. Just a cleaning but I walked out pleased with the result and enjoyed the chat with her and the dentist Dr Wood.See you again in six months.

Experiencia fantástica: Thee greatest dental office I have ever visited. You know this staff and team are great, when I choose to travel from New Jersey to Arizona! Thanks Team for all that you do!!

Experiencia fantástica: Great dentist office! They are one of those dentists that doesn’t try to pressure you into doing a bunch of stuff. They like to watch things in your teeth and only act if necessary.

Experiencia fantástica: I got my teeth cleaned today by a new hygienist. She was though and gentile. She did a great job. The other staff were great as well.

Experiencia fantástica: The staff here are the best. Been coming here for 20+ years after not seeing a dentist for about 10 years. Are awesome!

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone was very cordial and helpful as I had an emergency appointment. Dr. Schicktanz was very efficient, knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend The Wood Family Dentistry as they quickly relieved my painful situation. . .Mary Cook
