Clean offices. Friendly staff who are skilled and informative. I would definitely return and send my family there.

Dr. Deratnay's team is incredibly kind and clearly very focused on what's best for their patients. Everyone from reception to my hygienist, to Dr. Deratnay himself was top notch - Highly recommend!

Professional, kind, and detailed.

Great experience. Very professional and accommodating. Susie was friendly and knowledgeable while performing the cleaning. Nice added touch with Lynn at the front desk who cheers up your day. Thanks again, looking forward to coming back for a follow up.

I do not like visiting the dentist. But my experience with Dr. Paul Deratnay was amazing from the beginning - from my communications with the receptionist Lynn, to my Hygienist Susie, and finally meeting Dr. Paul. My highlight was Susie - she is warm and approachable. She made me feel very comfortable in the chair, plus gave me details on what she's doing and how I could better care for my teeth. First time I felt a little more relaxed at a dentist! I'll definitely be going back to see Susie soon!

Very nice team! The hygienist was kind and friendly.

Every one was so kind and just absolutely fabulous! Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience. Hadn’t been to a dentist in some time , and the entire staff from reception to the Dr himself were very welcoming and supportive. Thank you !

Very rigorous cleaning, with a friendly staff. The hygienist Sonia was wonderful. Kept me calm with a friendly demeanour.

Processional and friendly staff, great treatment and good advice.

Great staff! They were friendly and very professional.

I had a really great experience with Dr. Deratnay's office, a lot was done to make sure I was comfortable, and a plan for my care was well explained during my initial examination. Everyone was friendly and professional, and other great perks like my future bookings and insurance coverage being handled for me. I feel confident that my dental health is in good hands at this practice!

Great experience, friendly doctor and staff. I was a bit late and they rolled with it + still finished on time. Would recommend!

Loved my experience. Barb was welcoming. Dr. Paul was great. But Suzy was the highlight of my visit! She was very nice and made me feel comfortable. What I enjoyed most was how informative she was, providing explanations for what she was doing or her recommendations for how I should take care of my teeth. 10/10 would recommend.

They were able to book me in fairly quickly. The visit took place on time and everyone was very friendly.

Cleaning and check up was quick and pain free and everyone was super friendly!

Can’t describe how awesome my first visit was. Everyone was so friendly and professional. I highly recommend this to anyone.

Dentistry can always be a bit of an intimidating thing. That being said, from start to finish, Dr. Deratnay and his team made me feel as comfortable as I could possibly be. I'm looking forward to my return visits!

Wonderful, so pleasant and did an excellent job cleaning my teeth and giving me tips for overall care!

Very gentle cleaning. Informative and educational. Fantastic clinic!

Dr. Deratnay and his colleagues were all very helpful, professional and informative. By far my best experience at a dental clinic.

I was brought in for my cleaning only a few minutes after my scheduled time. The hygienist was very friendly, helped me understand what she was doing and how I can improve my dental health. Dr. Deratnay was also very efficient and unlike other dentists did not attempt to get me to get services and products I do not need. The offices are in a great location and everything is very clean and modern. The receptionists were also easy to work with and made sure everything was sorted out with my insurance properly, and called me to confirm. My teeth have never been cleaner.

Everything was so timely and friendly and they really made me feel at home even though it was my first visit. The hygienist was kind and gentle and described the whole process as it unfolded. I’ve never had a better experience in a dental office. Also, I have never been to a dentist where so many of the staff have remained for such a long time.

Very professional and friendly staff. Found it easy and convenient while they explained everything to me.

Friendly and welcoming practice! I went in for a routine clean and really enjoyed all service provided by the receptionist, hygenist and dentist! Highly recommend :)

Very nice dentist. The hygienist, Susie, was so gentle and it was greatly appreciated. Lots of tips for what to do at home to avoid having to come back. If you go, it’s up the stairs on the left of the building address (had a little trouble finding it as I was running late.)

Only my first visit, I felt welcome and enjoyed the conversation with both the hygienist and Dr. Deratnay. Great location, great people, and they brought me into my appointment in a timely manner - something that doesn't happen everywhere!

Polite

Very family friendly clinic, lovely staff. They are accommodating for busy schedules. Very glad we found this dentist.

Great visit. Pauline (hygienist) took her time with the cleaning. Dr. Deratnay was very professional. Clean, well-maintained, professional office, did not feel that like unnecessary services were being pushed on me.
