out of Read Reviews for Dr. Timothy Ake
My husband recommended him to me and initially he seemed very nice and compassionate. Over the years several procedures were administered by Dr. Ake. However, the last series involved upper and lower dentures. As a result and several thousands of dollars later, the dentures do not fit, cause pain and when asked to mitigate the problem Dr. Ake continues to dismiss my discomfort.
I truly hope that he will own up to his responsibilities and helps me as promised. Personally I like him but am very disappointed in is lack of concern.

I have been going to see Dr. Ake for a few months now and have had to have my teeth rebuilt. They look great. The reception desk is very helpful and very willing to work with you on scheduling and payments. Dr. Ake was very friendly and explained why he was doing everything he was doing, and what could happen if he didn't do it.

I confess I don't like going to the dentist; but, Dr. Ake is a very pleasant guy and very easy to talk to. His current location is the second for hime and in both cases, the facility has been first rate. The staff is also very friendly and courteous. I'd give Dr. Ake an excellent rating!

I have a mixed review of Dr. Ake. I think Dr. Ake does good quality work at prices that seem pretty normal. I don't think he's the best with kids, though. When my children have seen him, the office has not done well in stress management and Dr. Ake seems to get impatient with kids who might be scared of someone sticking a whirring drill in their mouth! We are now looking for a pediatric dentist. On the other hand, I think he does a great job with pain management and his technical skill seems quite good. The hygenists are really nice. One warning, however: his billing office will call you relentlessly if you are late with a payment or have any insurance problems-- it's like being harrassed by a bill collecting office! We had an insurance mix-up and we were called EVERY OTHER DAY, even AFTER we had figured out what had happened (we could do nothing but wait for the insurance to get straightened out and Dr. Ake's office STILL called us) . Bottom line: If you're not looking for a dentist for kids and you have unlimited funds or really reliable insurance, he does good work. Otherwise, I'd look elsewhere.

Met Dr Ake by chance going thru Phonebook - emergency! He provided me a diagnosis which was different than the "Chain" dental firm i just visited. Beause of his explainationI kept my tooth root and only paid for a crown, saving $1000+. 4+ years later I am still happy.
Tried to give him my permenant business but the lady at the front desk had terrible service---ignored me while talking to a friend who stopped by. Waited 10-15 minutes then left and now someone has my business.
Still I strongly recomment him because he isn't money hungry...just seems interested in your best health.
