I, very hesitantly, scheduled an appointment with Dr. Kezele after my dad told me about him and continued to encourage me for a few months that he liked his dentist. BEST choice ever! A little back story here - I'd had a TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE AT AVANTA! They said I needed a root canal done, that I now even question if it needed done. Afterwards I was in excruciating pain for weeks before they fixed it.
I'd call, literally in tears not understanding why it felt like someone was stabbing my where it was done and had been told that's "normal" only to find out when I walked in and demanded they fix it that they didn't deaden the nerve and I'd went weeks with that pain. It definitely put me off from wanting to go to the dentist again. Which was rather sad as I'd always been the person that actually loved going.
Fast forward 4 years, I scheduled an Appointment and Jen was the sweetest! She immediately knew over the phone I was scared and was not only patient with me but extremely understanding! So this am came and my anxiety spiked with fear at the thought of going in, I almost canceled. So very very glad I didn't. I got there and they were prompt and sooooo kind.
When the doc came in he was funny, outgoing, understanding and absolutely went out of his way to make me comfortable again. I am so grateful that he's here for Yakima and for people who've had terrible experiences and understands that we let things get away from us after out of fear and shows complete non-judgement! He exercised empathy and understanding and I'm so extremely grateful! Thank you Dr. Kezele! See you next week again!

Not only are they honest, if they can't help you they will find someone who can. Today I came to their office desperate to have a tooth pulled after my dentist canceled my appointment. I had taking off work and been in so much pain I needed this extraction done today. The doctor was out today but the lady that runs the front let me in and proceeded to call around to places she knew until.she helped me secure an appointment for my extraction today! She went above and beyond her responsibility! I am so greatful and look.forward to.switching my plan so I may make this me regular dental office. Thank.you again!

I have been seeing Dr. Kezele off and on for over 5 years, due to being a military family. In my experiences with different dentists absolutely no one compares to Dr. Kezele and his staff. All so friendly and personable, I have severe anxiety and I am made to be so comfortable when I visit the office, I refuse to be seen elsewhere. He talks me through any procedures I undergo, so there are no surprises on my end and answers all of my many questions I have each appointment. I trust Dr. Kezele and his staff fully

Huge thanks to Dr. Kezele for his commitment to our community. As a speech therapist I periodically learn of children I work with that need assistance acquiring a few tubes of toothpaste. When I reached out today randomly-he didn't hesitate to help kids he may never even meet. Professionalism at its best! Thank you, Dr. Kezele.

I have been going here for 2 years now and they have been GREAT! The doctor always explains what is going on in detail and gives you great options. Their whole staff is friendly and very knowledgeable! Always great service and VERY fair priced. I love the FREE teeth whitening perk when you get your cleanings here!

My wife and I are kind of timid when it comes to seeing a dentist to say the least. Dr Kezele and his staff are very friendly and understanding. We have both had some major things done and I'm grateful for Dr kezele and his staff for taking their time, explaining the options and making sure we were both comfortable. My wife says she feels relaxed and not scared to see Dr Kezele and enjoys the environment.

About 6 months ago I went to Dr. Kezele to have a night guard made. Doctor explained my options, the costs, and the pros & cons. The guard arrived on time and fit perfectly. Dr. Kezele and I discussed my future dental plans. The doctor inspired confidence and I decided to let him fashion two crowns. The two crowns turned out beautiful turning dull gray teeth gorgeous.
Doctor noticed that the two front teeth crowns were thin and he worried about what was going on below the crowns. What he found was leakage that had almost ruined the teeth. Two more crowns were placed today. Not only did doctor save my teeth, these new crowns fit so well that my bite is also much improved. I could not be happier with Dr. Kezele. He is now my dentist and my favorite dentist of all time!

Dr. Kezele gets me in for work as soon as possible. I recently had a crown break he was able to fit me into his schedule the following day. I had a wedding to attend that weekend and he understood that having the tooth fixed was urgent. The shots were painless and the work was efficient. I have been a patient for 9+ yrs. I am very happy with his care.

Who likes to go to the dentist?! I do now! The dentist office is never the spot that you want to be but my experiences at Dr. Kezele's office have turned that around. I would still prefer to be on vacation somewhere but I also LOVE to have my teeth cleaned now! No pain, no fear. They are always on time and ready for me when I arrive. Time is important to me.
If i have taken time out of my busy schedule to be seen then I appreciate being seen right away. Dr. Kezele and his staff are amazing. Great work and friendly, professional office!

Professional and compassionate. That's the bottom line with Dr Kezele and his staff. I had an emergency and did not think anyone would give me the help I needed the way they did. Not only did he resolve the tooth that was hurting me, he found another tooth that was the reason I had not been feeling well for months. His primary concern was not how much he could charge me, it was MY QUALITY OF LIFE!
This is the kind of doctor we want for our loved ones, and he is now my Dentist. I recommend ANYONE in pain to see these people, they care and they will help you. By the time I left I felt informed and like I was friends with Ryan. Great Dr., great staff. Thank you Dr Kezele, you have improved my life.

I have worked for Dr. Ryan Kezele for almost 10 years now as his main assistant, he is not only a great dentist but also a great boss. I highly recommended him to all my family and friends and they all think he is great as well. He has a gentle touch and is very honest with treatment plans and procedures.

I hate going to the dentist. I knew I needed to go, but kept putting it off. Finally, I made an appointment to see Dr. Kezele. He was very professional and seemed very knowledgeable. He made me feel extremely comfortable and was able to answer all my questions. I be going to the dentist more regularly now that I have been introduced to Dr. Kezele.

I have had many traumatic experiences with dentists. I was in constant fear of needing any dental work, including simple cleanings. Then I started seeing Dr. Ryan Kezele. Dr. Kezele has systematically invalidated all of my fears, showing me time and again that going to the dentist does NOT have to be scary or painful. He is honest and up front, and is truly interesting in your dental and overall health.
My most recent visit involved a root canal, one of my least favorite procedures EVER. Well not any more. I am no longer scared of root canals because he showed me that it was easy and pain free. I recommend this dentist to anyone and everyone. He is awesome.
