I had a temporary crown put on and managed to crack it on Thanksgiving. I was fixed up with a new one quickly. Great customer service. Dr. Merfeld does great work. He explains everything fully and puts me at ease. Everyone at the office is friendly and efficient at their jobs. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my Dental work.

Always been very happy with the services i have received from them over the past years and then on Thanksgiving day I had a tooth issue and they went above and beyond to take care of me as a customer and resolve the issue coming in on a day off (a holiday at that). I would highly recommend Rochester Dental Clinic for all dental care. Amazing staff and doctor!!

Went there for the first time with my husband for our separate appointments. Had just spontaneously decided to switch all dental care there after lack of satisfaction at Dr Richard Cohen’s office. Best decision we could’ve made. What other dentist will happily welcome and accept, and work with their patients while one has a little 13 month old baby with? Our appointments were scheduled for a timing that would make us one after the other, so we could switch with baby in the lobby while the other is in the chair. Well, my appointment was first, and we actually went over quite a bit, because while we had planned a cleaning, they saw that I had clearly needed further debris removal, after having already went through it at Dr. Cohen’s office, where they did exactly what they were “supposed to do.” They left lots behind because it wasn’t required to be removed. Didn’t even tell me there was more UNDER MY GUM LINE. My dentist at RDC actually took her time out to get it all out, explaining to me how gingivitis and I were apparently good friends, since I’ve been walking around with all this backup in my mouth for so long. Who expects to go to a dentist or any public and professional business and get a half job done, and not even have a clue? They cleaned me well, gave me very thorough and helpful tips on aftercare, and they gladly set up my next appointment for my cleaning to take place AFTER my gums have healed. All she kept saying during the cleaning was “I just wanna get it all out now, once and done, instead of ignoring it only for it to come up later and be even worse.” They made me feel good about myself. I’m not even sure how, but I left there with more confidence and understanding of my own mouth than I’d arrived with. Everyone should go here, to the place where they show you that they truly care about their patients, and not just about getting their money. PS: They even gave me newer/onsite X-rays because the ones Dr. Cohen sent over weren’t even very good in quality. Didn’t charge me a thing for that. They just wanted to be sure they were seeing correctly what they needed. Great establishment. Great care. 2 thumbs up!

My family has been going to RD since I was little and the quality of dental care and service has never wavered. The staff knows your name, seeks to help you in every aspect as best they can, and are very patient focused. I will not be going anywhere else!

The team at Rochester Dental Clinic is fabulous. They explain what they find and try to accommodate our family in one visit. My kids have a positive experience with the hygienists—especially when they name their loose teeth 🦷

They accommodate me and my children in one visit. The hygienists are great with the kids--especially naming their loose teeth. They also explain what they are doing and what is going on in your mouth.

I have been coming here for years. I am always greeted when I arrive and have very nice conversations while getting my routine cleanings done. I feel confident in the care that I am getting and enjoy the staff.

Amazing! They are all so kind and ask how you’re doing. They’re very supportive and they tell you what they’re going to do before they do it when getting your teeth cleaned/other.

Needed a crown right after Covid 19 reopening. I am new to Rochester and never liked going to the dentist. Tammie and Dr Dison were great!

The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. We were even able to bring my 22 month old son in and let him see the chair and watch a little bit while they cleaned my teeth. Great service!

Dr Dison is very nice, fast and efficient. The dental hygienists Sheri and Tammie are very friendly, helpful and knowledge. They get you in and out the time frame your scheduled. My kids love Sheri.

Dr. Tate has the best patient “chair side manner”! Front desk staff is efficient, go above and beyond at all interactions! Patient health was a priority during Covid pandemic! Tammy was a great assistant!

I am beyond impressed. I had been hesitant to find a dental clinic since I moved here in the fall. Gretchen and Dr. Matt were incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. I could not recommend this more! I feel very fortunate to have received the care I did today and look forward to continued visits with people I already feel like I can trust. They truly seem to care. Thank you!

Great staff everyone is so friendly and helpful. Use to dread going to the dentist now, I look foreword to it. Very enjoyable experience. Gretchen is a great Hygienist. She is so positive and, keeps me motivated to keep up with my oral care plan. Dr. Matt answers all my questions clearly so even I can understand. would give six stars if I could. Thank you to the whole staff.

The staff was more than accommodating. Everyone was very kind and welcoming. I even had a little gift waiting for me, since this type of procedure was a first for me. I really appreciate the genuine thoughtfulness and caring that was shown to me.

The staff is very friendly and makes you feel comfortable. My hygienist did a great job cleaning my teeth and answering any questions I had. The follow up with the dentist was very professional and he also answered any questions I had. Overall it was a great experience.

I want to say thank you so much! Dr. Tate and Kim were outstanding with my mother today. You both made her feel comfortable and were very professional. You went out of your way to make sure everything was perfect with my mothers dentures. I would for sure recommend Rochester dental to anyone I know. Thank you so much! Kevin Cedotal

Greeted with a warm smile. Friendly staff. Had a great experience. Walked me through what they were doing with my teeth and what they would need doing for the appointment. Awesome staff. Certainly would go back.

I arrived on the wrong day, but the front desk staff were willing to make arrangements for me to receive the care I needed without making me feel like an old man! This empathetic philosophy is projected by the entire staff at each appointment! The Hygienist’s professional skills and caring personality were also outstanding! If you are looking for a 5 Star Dental Clinic - this is the place! Dr. Matt has instilled a very professional and caring philosophy!

They were able to schedule an appointment for the next day after my permanent retainer came loose. The appointment only took 15 minutes and it feels so much better! I highly recommend them!
