PARENT REVIEWS
Tremendous staff and Dr. Applebaum is great- our kids actually like their visits (the toy selection doesn’t hurt either)! ✪✪✪✪✪ — Adam K.
We started seeing Dr. Applebaum when my oldest was 18 months. 13 years and 3 kids later, we wouldn't dream of going anywhere else! We drive just over an hour one way but the quality of care, the easy going atmosphere, and the fact that my kids actually look forward to their appointments is worth every mile. These folks don't just throw cartoon pics on the wall and call themselves a pediatric dentistry - they create an experience every time, every child, every day!✪✪✪✪✪ — Candace J.
Dr. Applebaum and the staff are wonderful! They always make the kids feel relaxed and comfortable. Thank you for making this an enjoyable experience!✪✪✪✪✪ — Reagan T.
