Our Patient Testimonials
This was my first appointment with Dr. Joseph Akhikar at his new office. He’s been my preferred dentist for years due to his high-level of expertise and the fact that he cares so much for his patients. His staff was absolutely wonderful from Janelle in the front to Nahrain who provided me a fantastic cleaning and made me feel so relaxed and comfortable. Not to mention, the office was stunning and equipped with the most technologically advanced equipment.
It was truly an amazing experience for me today. Started with a very welcoming staff ,great atmosphere, beautiful clinic & amazing Dental service. Dr. Akhikar went out of his way and took his time to take care of me and made me feel like family. His expertise and knowledge exceed my expectations. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone in need of any dental care.
Dr. Joseph Akhikar is wonderful and can be highly trusted. I had been seeing Dr. Akhikar at his previous locations, but once he opened up Glance Dental, I made sure to visit him in his new location. Glance Dental is a beautiful, brand new office that seems to have all the high-tech equipment that every dental office should have. Highly recommend Dr. Akhikar to all my family and friends and you won't be disappointed if you are looking for an incredible dentist.
My visit to Glance Dental was first-rate - a wonderfully pleasant experience! From the moment I arrived, the uber modern office design and the warm and caring reception by the staff gave me the sense of a spa experience. Add the state of the art imaging equipment and display screens, and Dr. Akhikar has completely raised the bar for a visit to the dentist.
A few things that I look for in any business, but especially a medical setting, are cleanliness, professionalism, and awesome people. I found all three at this office and have nothing but the highest praise for my two favorite people, Dr. Joseph Akhikar and dental hygienist Nahrain. Dr. Akhikar helped me get back on track after nearly two decades of not seeing a dentist. Nahrain is super friendly and has a precise attention to detail (I dare to say it's a big deal).
Let me start off by saying that I have had major anxiety at the thought of going to the dentist. The only reason I come back every 6 months is to see Nahrain who is an amazing dental hygienist. She is the only person that I trust with my teeth. She understands me and works with me, especially when taking x-rays. She takes her time and makes sure that I am in no pain during the cleaning.
I am one of those people who are daily flossers. So imagine my surprise when a good thing turned out badly and resulted in a crown popping off. I made a call to the office and explained the situation and was able to get an appointment that day. Dr. Akhikar examined my mouth, cleaned the area and resealed my crown within minutes. Mission accomplished.
The minute I entered the Glance dental office I felt relaxed with the design. I was welcomed with a big smile. Doctor and his team were working with me not on me. I recommend this office to all my friends and family members . May our almighty God shower his blessings upon this place and those who serve in it .
I've been a patient of Dr. Akhikar for over 8 years. I'm always treated like a top priority and I trust him explicitly. Dr. Akhikar is the best, incredible personality, down to earth - always makes me laugh when in the chair, and a great Dentist as well! His bedside manner is unbeatable and he takes his time with me every time and answers all my questions and concerns.
