I had my teeth cleaned here and needed an initial exam by the dentist, and found the doctor and hygienist to be very professional and knowledgeable. I will be coming back for cleanings. I didn't have any dental work done but I would reccomend this clinic for cleanings.

Report
This dental office is the best I have ever experienced. I originally started going to them when I lived on Saltspring Island because the local dentist was not taking new patients... I have since moved back to Victoria but continue to bus to Sidney and back just to get dental work done here. The staff are all SO friendly and incredibly helpful with insurance stuff, and Dr. Braun and the dental hygienists are amazing as well. The whole team of staff are just so ready and willing to help meet your needs, and they appointments are always punctual as well. I'm so grateful for the amazing service
