Happy Client from Mercer Island Office“This is the best dentistry in the PNW! Molly at the front desk is so kind and always makes me feel like one of their VIP clients. The dental hygienists are all kind and Doctor Thomas is a straight shooter. Both myself and my Mom visit this office and couldn’t recommend it more!”
Betsy Tutland
Happy Client from Mercer Island Office“Dr. Thomas is an amazing dentist. At both his Mercer Island and Kirkland offices the staff is very warm and welcoming. Dr. Thomas has been my husband’s and my dentist for over 20 years and has done exceptional dental work. He makes his patients feel at ease with his caring, positive and fun personality. My grandchildren also see Dr. Thomas and he has an amazing way of helping them to feel comfortable and thus, cooperative. Dr. Thomas has the highest medical and ethical standards. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Thomas for any dental procedure.”

Happy Client from Mercer Island Office“I have been a patient of Dr. Thomas since he began his practice. He is thorough in his exams, and professional in his treatments. He has done root canals, implants, and crowns for me, and the results have always been very good.”

Happy Client from Mercer Island Office“As always Dr. McNabb did not fail to impress! We are very fortunate to have him as our dentist . But I also wanted to lift up NADIA who cleaned my teeth this time around and did such an AMAZING job. She is really good at what she does, and has such a calming and personable way about her. Highly recommend these guys!!!”

Happy Client from Kirkland Office“Great dentist! I came after Covid for my first checkup and cleaning, and ended up needing to have some childhood crowns replaced. During the process they were very thorough, even once getting a crown remade to have a perfect fit. One of those visits came in under the estimate. I appreciate the care they take in their practice. The staff are always nice and fun to talk to. Since my first series I’ve come here for over a year and have always had great experiences. Still need to floss more but the dentists and assistants are super nice about it! Also have great reminder system, and are very patient and thorough when working on insurance issues.”

Happy Client from Kirkland Office“Went to that office last year to get a crown on implant and Dr. Thomas did the ugliest crown possible. Shape and height looked completely different from natural tooth I had in that place before. He did not even try to fix it. This year my new dentist confirmed that the crown should have been done completely different but now Im stuck with this crown for a while because it will cost a ton to re-do it since that is a dental implant crown, not just a regular crown. I guess I missed the first red flag when they said they do root canals and extractions too. Of course, why even going to roots canals specialists and oral surgeons if You can get a “buffet of services” at Dr. Thomas! Also Molly at the front desk is the rudest receptionist I ve even seen, billing office could not get the numbers right and overcharged me for about $800 then refunded but can this office be more unprofessional and thirsty for money?!!”
Patrick Dion
Happy Client from Kirkland Office“Best dentist I’ve ever been to. Not only are they prompt and quick but they walk you through your care clearly and explain the how’s and why’s. For once if feels like having an office that has a comprehensive plan for me rather than me checking a box every year. The hygienists are empowered to spend time with you and even book appointments with them right in the chair. Could not recommend more.”
Robb Kristianson
Happy Client from Kirkland Office“Very happy with the prompt service. I would highly recommend Thomas Dentistry!”
Janelle Denson
Happy Client from Mercer Island Office“I love coming here & I’m always greeted with smiles. It truly makes me feel great that the staff remembers my name & even though I visit every six months for my cleanings, our conversations pick up right where we left off. Marna, Rosie & Dr. Thomas are THEE BEST! I’d leave ten stars if I could.”
Linda Scott
Happy Client from Kirkland Office“I visited Thomas Dentistry as a new patient on 9/9/21 and was impressed with their friendliness and professionalism. While there, multiple staff joined in to help resolve a personal issue, for which I was very appreciative. My husband and I will definitely schedule again with Thomas Dentistry Kirkland, and I’ll recommend them to family and friends.”
Barb Patterson
Happy Client from Mercer Island Office“I needed a dentist close to home and they are close enough for me to walk. I've been twice now and both times had a great experience. Dr. Jaswal has a wonderful chair-side manner and super sense of humor.”

Sarah Gielgens
Happy Client from Kirkland Office“I have been a patient at Thomas dentistry for over 10 years and have always appreciated their open and friendly atmosphere, knowledgeable and helpful advice, use of new technology and methods, consistent and kind care. Dr. Thomas, Dr. Nguyen, and Dr. Jaswal have all demonstrated genuine care and interest in their patient’s lives, dental health and history, and other medical concerns. I admire their dedication to providing excellent solutions to dental problems, and patience with special issues. I would recommend this team to everyone!”

Happy Client from Mercer Island Office“I just started going here this year after bouncing around different dentist for years and have had a great experience each visit. I have had everything from cleaning, fillings, root canal, crown and they have all gone well. The office is nice, conveniently located and has off street parking. The entire staff is very friendly and helpful. Dr. Jaswal is excellent, takes his time not only with his work but explaining what you have going on, your options etc. Overall only good things to say about this place and definitely recommend it.”

Happy Client from Mercer Island Office“Dr. Thomas is professional and knowledgeable. He is well suited for both kids and adults.”
