What Our New Patients Say About Meridian Dental

""Today was our first visit after having used the same dentist down south for over 15 years. Needless to say we were apprehensive particularly since my wife has severe Alzheimer’s disease. We found an exceptionally friendly office staff, hygienists and dentist. The modern equipment and approach made everything less stressful and somewhat interesting. Our plan had been to primarily use Meridian Dental for hygienist services while maintaining primary care down south during the winter. But after today, Meridian Dental will become our primary provider."
Darrell B.

“We are new to the Valley and heard about this dentist through a family member. I was so pleased with how quickly we were able to get in and get work done. The staff are very helpful, smile all the time and know their stuff!! The doc is great and quick and was very precise with where the numbing needed to happen. I usually have numbness up to my eyebrow and down my neck, but not this time. Excellent experience and my kids had a great experience as well. Thank you for being so awesome!!”
Angie W.

“Dr. Gurr and staff are always so comforting. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a new dentist. My visits are pain free and quick, thank you!”
Blainey D.

“Your office is the first office that I have felt comfortable being there. I want to say thank you to everybody that helped reach one of my goals.”
Tonya F.

“I am a new patient , I was extremely impressed on the first visit with how efficient and friendly and knowledgeable the staff was. This dental office has state of the art equipment, they do an excellent job and their prices are extremely reasonable. No question I will stay here for dental care!”
Richard O.

“This dental team was able to see me on an urgent basis as I had broken a tooth, which was jagged and made an ulceration on my tongue. I was able to be seen right away, and I was a new patient. The service was friendly, professional and excellent. I can’t say enough good things about them!”
Laura F.

“My son and I had our first visit today at Meridian Dental and had a great experience from start to finish. The entire staff is very friendly, thorough and knowledgeable. The office itself is brand new and very high tech with some added touches to help you relax (heated massage chairs!)”
Denise S.

“Had a fantastic visit with Dr. Gurr recently! Nice office and a very friendly staff. If you're looking for a new dentist, Meridian Dental is going to be your place.”
Taylor R.

“Dr. Grr and staff are so friendly and professional. The office and exam/work areas are pristine. I have allergies and asthma, and there’s nothing about this place that offends my intolerances. I would recommend Meridian Dental to anyone who is looking for a new dental practice.”
Mark T.

“Excellent service! They fixed all of my teeth on the same appointment and used extreme care with my medical disorder. After a horrific experience at a previous dental clinic I was nervous to start over with a new dentist (explain my medical issues over again). DR. Pieper and the staff were fast and professional.”
Lindsay S.

“My first visit with Dr. Kris and I left way impressed! His needlework was excellent, my crown and fillings were painlessly taken care of, his assistant was awesome, the facilities were clean and his office staff was super friendly. They have all the up-to-date goodies and have obviously spared no expenses to treat their patients with the best care and tools possible. If you’re new to the Valley and looking for a dentist, look no further!”
Danny U.

“Wow! What a great experience. If you are looking for a new dentist, well look no further than Meridian Dental. Also, make sure you ask for Kelsey. Kelsey is a superstar Hygienist. Andy S.All of the staff was friendly and professional. This was my first visit, and this is going to be my new dentist from here on out. Highly impressed. They are honest and don't try to get you to do unnecessary treatments.”
Stephanie S.

“In my 50 years of life.... never met a dentist that took only a few shots to completely numb me. Well, the dentist there was the first ever. From reception to chair and out the door, it is the best dental visit I have ever had.”
Julia I.

“It was our first visit to the office and they absolutely went above and beyond for my me and my son. Everyone, from the front staff, to the dentist and his assistant, went well above basic service. We were in and out in record time and my son was out of pain. Would highly recommend!!”
Sophie S.

“I had made an appointment for a regular cleaning, but my husband's tooth started hurting the same day I made the appointment(later that evening). So the next day I called to see if I could get him in early and they said, "No problem!" We were able to get in that very day as new patients, and they fix my husband's tooth problem. They also rescheduled our previously scheduled cleaning for that day since we were already there, which meant that we didn't have to make the hour drive to the office the following week! Super accommodating and really nice hygienist and dentist. Also really appreciated they gave us a cost estimate before any work was done so we knew beforehand and could make the decision to have work done or not. There was no sticker shock at the end. Office staff were also great! Overall really excellent customer service and felt they bent over backwards to accommodate us despite their busy schedule. Highly recommend Meridian Dental!”
Trouton S.

“I have had some bad dental experiences in the past so I was very cautious when I was choosing the next dental office. After my first appointment, I was put to ease. Dr. Gurr and his team are very professional and sympathetic. Thank you. I highly recommend Meridian Dental.”
