When I first moved to Worcester, I needed specialized jaw surgery. I figured the jaw surgeon has seen all the others dentists work in the area and knew who was good and who to avoid. I asked the jaw surgeon who was the best dentist. Without hesitation he told me it is Ralph Sahakian. That was twenty years ago. My parents go to him based upon my recommendation. Ralph is personable and professional.
He has earned my trust. His staff has been with him for decades. He does the work that is needed for the patient. He has never tried to sell me an 'upgrade' that would pad his profits. When I asked about a cosmetic procedure he told me not to do it. His work is patient centered. If you want high quality dental work he is the Doctor who want to see. I am pleased he has no plans to retire.

Everyone from the team at the scheduling, the hygienists and Dr Sahakian are fabulous to work with. I find them punctual, soft spoken and very knowledgeable. They're striving to go above and beyond every time. Consistently. That's not easy to find nowadays. I strongly recommend this office to anyone who asks.

I was a former patient of Dr. V's, and when he retired I was very nervous. No need to fear, Dr Sarkisian is top knotch! he's a wonderful dentist. I can't say enough about him except he is kind, courteous, very accommodating, and very professional. Thank you
