Happy Client from Mercer Island Office
“Dr. Nguyen and the dental hygienists are super nice! I felt comfortable and safe—even the time I started crying when I had a panic attack before getting some cavities filled. (Sorry about that lol.) Anyways, Dr. Nguyen was very kind, gave me space to chill out, and didn’t make me feel embarrassed, even though I wouldn’t have blamed him if he did.”

“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!!!”
Mark Detrow

“Had such an amazing experience, and I would highly recommend coming here. I was incredibly thankful especially for how helpful and sweet Marna was. I typically do not like going to the dentist but she made me feel very comfortable and did a wonderful job! Will be back here soon!”
Vanessa Hoffman
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“This was my first dental visit and I must say they were definitely unorganized as their X-ray machine kept freezing the images delaying my appointment and they’re not put together. The manager Carmen told me I was going to have to pay a $70 balance. Which I completely agreed on no problem. I got a bill for $140 and was never told I had a $50 co-pay on top & they don’t use silver filling so I had to pay extra for a white filling. I was not told about any of these extra charges. The manager Carmen hung up on me over the phone without trying to fully explain everything and was very rude to me. I would not recommend this dentist because they are not truthful and they want you to pay double your bill so please be careful.”
Tyler D
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.”
Jordan Hansen
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“Kathy D is fantastic and I definitely recommend her for routine cleaning. She is very thorough and cares for her patients. I greatly appreciate my visits.”
Christy Shiers
Happy Client from Mercer Island Office
“Dr. Thomas is professional and knowledgeable. He is well suited for both kids and adults.”
Susan Slagle
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“I just recently transferred over to Thomas Dentistry and I’ve had two appointments so far, which I have had positive experiences with. The front desk is very friendly and accommodating, and they let you know about costs up front. I’ve had two different hygienists and they both have been good and thorough. I saw Dr. Jaswal both times and he has a very calm demeanor which puts you at ease. He also has a good sense of humor. Thomas Dentistry takes the unpleasantness out of going to the dentist!”
