After leaving my long time dentist office due to changes in quality service, I came to Walnut Creek. They are amazing. I love the app and the ability to do everything ahead of time. I love that I don't have to wait and they are always on time. Most importantly I love that they do a great job with me and my kids.

My first initial visit at this Dental facility was absolutely wonderful! Environment extremely clean love love.staff, exceptional! They make you feel so comfortable, by asking you if you would like anything to drink, I have never had any nice experience at any other Dental facility like I received at this one. Dr. Michael Pappas he was incredibly nice, makes one feel very relaxed and comfortable, especially since I was nervous my first time. When I left I was totally at ease. I would recommend this Dental Group to others for sure. Respectfully, Sheila Davis-Collns

I LOVE this Dental Office! When you first walk in, Maria at the front desk is so welcoming and happy. It's refreshing. I really like her. My dentist is Dr. Whitaker and his assistant is Abby. I Love them! They have made some very painful experiences painless. They're gentle and stop immediately if anything hurts and approach care slowly so as to not jar you out of the dental chair. They explain everything and make you feel very comfortable.
The office is big and extremely clean but what I like the most is how incredibly accommodating they are! If you have an emergency or urgent problem, they get you right in. They can really accommodate needed appointment on any given day. They're really a great team! I highly recommend them. I travel from Dublin to see this office.

My experience was nothing short than magical. The staff was extremely friendly, the atmosphere was delightful, and I left with a sense of security that I made the right choice of chosen Walnut Creek Dental. I have every reason to believe that everyone there is capable of doing an amazing job, but I had the pleasure of working with Jenni (Jenny) who did my cleaning. I've had cleanings at other offices and the experience has been painful and unpleasant. During our session, she kept checking pain level and overall just showed that she cared about my comfortability. I look forward to my two upcoming appointments

Had my first visit at Walnut Creek Dental for a routine cleaning and was very pleased with the experience. Mike, the hygienist came for me soon after I arrived and escorted me to an examining room. I was immediately impressed with how friendly he was and his willingness to spend time to get to know me and ask questions since I was a new patient. And he allowed just as much time for me to ask any questions I had.
I also liked the fact that he was so experienced as a hygienist and he offered helpful tips on how to maintain good oral hygiene. I was just as impressed with the lady dentist. Dr. Lydic?. who came to check my teeth and mouth. I was happy they were so thorough with my dental exam. I also was fitted for a night guard for clenching, and the young lady who did the molds was so delightful. I'm sorry I don't know her name, but she was very friendly and personable.
I am very particular when it comes to my dental care and choosing a dentist. I am happy to say that Walnut Creek Dental has met all of my expectations. I would highly recommend them. The office staff was also very friendly and efficient.

This place is awesome! My normal dentist office couldn't get me in as fast as I needed so I called them and they got me in the next morning! They explained pricing, (which was very reasonable) explained their steps one by one and got me exactly what I needed in less than 24hours! Highly recommend

The staff and dentists and hygienists were exceptional! They held my hand, provided me with options and walked me though the work I needed done and made sure I understood before beginning. I was very. VERY anxious about going to the dentist. I'm always terrified even when I'm just getting a cleaning and I was in tears. But they worked with me, explained everything and why, gave me options and it calmed me down a lot.
I am so happy and at peace with Walnut Creek Dental East because they took the time to make sure I was safe, and comfortable before they pushed care plans on me like some other places I've been. 10/10 Highly recommended! I just found my new family dentist! Forever. Prices are reasonable and transparent, Dental work is great and the genuine follow up phone call from the actual dentist that had half her hand in my mouth was a really nice touch. I will be back for sure. Thank you all!
