List of Hillcrest Dental's Reviews
Dawn got me right in for an urgent appointment. Best dentist around! Been coming here for 7 years. Wouldn’t change it for anything.
Rosie was great! First time with her. Sharon is GREAT!!! She is gentle and efficient. No high speed cleaner and it was a piece of cake. Highly recommend her. Enjoyed meeting the new dentist that has joined the practice.
Everyone is so kind and welcoming! Ellie is the best; so gentle and sweet!
Great fast service, no hassle on getting charged for different things when you wanted just one thing done this is the place to go
I’m honestly disappointed to be writing this, especially because this used to be a wonderful practice and my husband has been a patient here since he was a child—nearly 50 years. Over time, the experience has really changed. I find the requirement of a deposit just to schedule an appointment, along with the excessive calls and text messages repeatedly following up on appointments—often very early in the morning—to be excessive and unprofessional. What was most disappointing was my husband’s recent cleaning. Sharon was a big reason he continued coming here all these years, yet when he arrived for his appointment, he was switched to someone else without any communication beforehand. Unfortunately, my interaction with Dawn also left me feeling uncomfortable and as though we were more of a number than longtime patients who had built a relationship with the practice. I also have to be honest that lately it feels like there is more emphasis on getting a Google review than on making patients feel genuinely valued and cared for. This is simply my personal experience and opinion, but after nearly 50 years of loyalty, it’s disappointing to feel this way. My husband and in-laws will now be looking for another dental practice. After almost 50 years, that really says something. Wild. …and no I am longer a patient of theirs!
horrible doctor who does cosmetic procedures without consent.
Dawn was helpful and nice.
Everyone here very nice and knowledgeable. Will come back. I have been a patient at Hillcrest Dental for nine years and have always had great care by Dr. Akkara and will definitely miss him. Dr. Nalini treated me this past visit and she was a great choice to take over the practice. The staff at this office is also wonderful and caring.
huge shout out to Dawn and Kat... absolute magic makers. I was in severe pain and they were able to get me in same day. Could not be more greatful!
Awesome visit 😊

Selection Criteria
All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
