I found Dr. Kitchen on 1800 Dentist referral line. I found his office manager Barbara to be excellent. She is warm, kind, extremely positive and very accomodating to my needs. She managed my care around what was affordable for me. Dr. Kitchen is informative, sensitive about my fears and level of discomfort. He will spend all the time you need to inform and discuss you particular needs. The hygenist is the best I've ever experienced. She is extremely gentle and effective. She is warm and very encouraging. I have recommended others to Dr. Kitchen and they too have high praise for the practice.

About Hygienist: Awesome. Best I've experienced. Gentle, thoughtful, warm and very effective.

I hate dentist, but this doctor and his caring staff are wonderful. The RDH, Jessica, is one of the best! Barbara in the front office is kind and easy to talk to. Very sweet. Dr. Kitchen makes you feel at ease. A little pricy but I guess you get want you pay for. I plan to stay here. Thanks

About Hygienist: Jessica, is kind, thoughful and sensitive. I think she is the ultimate professional.

Dr. Kitchen and his staff are very friendly. His procedures seem to be a bit costly, but I have no complaints about the methods. The location is poor because of lack of parking although the site is remedying this by building a new parking structure. Dr. Kitchen seems very intent on making sure the hygienists execute the cleanings completely and attentively.

I've been going to Dr. Kitchen for 9 years now. He is a great, caring dentist and I just love Barbara! They are really great people!

About Hygienist: 98% of the Hygienists they have in their office are great. There's a very small percentage that, when new & don't know you (which happens often) make you feel uncomfortable.

Facilities are great, front desk is pleasant and friendly, but I often left the office feeling like I had been taken advantage of. Very expensive, partially my fault since they weren't an approved provider, but I was also encouraged to have expensive comestic work (brightening), a $500 mouth guard, and other expensive procedures that seemed not as necessary. But maybe that's just the nature of the dental industry. They need to find problems and it costs lots of $$$ to fix those problems. The dental hygenist also was not available very often (part time) so finding a cleaning wasn't super easy, but not super hard either. Came from a super lax dentist that only did procedures when you really wanted it or had pain. Didn't do much preventive. Dr. Kitchen does a lot of preventive which means you'll definitely be paying for it.

Way too expensive, even after insurance. Paid hundreds of dollars out of my pocket for a small front tooth filling.

Dr. Kitchen is a wonderful dentist. Dr. Kitchen is very caring, thorough and professional. I've been happy with this dentist for over ten years. His facilities and equipment are top-notch. His wife, the office manager, is helpful with insurance and appointments.
