Dr. Katia and her dental assistant, Tammy are such amazing people. They made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole process. Would recommend this dentist to anyone!

MIRANDA S. Checkmark Verified Patient

I am generally very anxious when it comes to going to the dentist. My teeth are terrible and I had a pretty negative (only one time) experience at a previous dentist's office. Dr. Karia's office is very friendly and personable, and I never really felt nervous or discouraged during my appointment like I usually do. I'll generally go to a consultation and then get scared or overwhelmed and then decide to continue neglecting treatment but I feel like I finally found a place that hasn't frightened me.

Dr. Karia was amazing. She was kind, knowledgable, and gentle in her practice. I don't normally get nervous to go to the dentist, but it was my first time in a long time switching to a new dentist so I was a bit anxious. She was amazing! I'm glad I found this practice and will be going back.
