I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Rios. I
have been a patient here for a number of years as are my children and husband. I have no hesitation recommending the whole practice. Dr Rios takes a real pleasure in his job, he is knowledgeable, professional but also very kind with a nervous patient such as I. Emily understands the patients and our needs. She remembers layered details about our dental care and family history that makes arranging dental care for our family so much easier.

Wonderful and thoughtful dentist and office staff. I had a broken tooth and they fit me into the schedule same day because they truly care for their patients. When I called, they ensured that I wasn't in severe pain and could wait a couple of hours for an appointment. They are extremely professional and make you feel like family.

I was so lucky to have found a family dentist who are dedicated and compassionate about what they do. The staff was very friendly from the time I walked in to the time I left everyone is very pleasant. Dr. Rios and Mrs.Emily made sure I was very comfortable and satisfied with the information that was given to me on how to move forward. I would recommend them to anyone who don’t know where to begin on their journey, and become a part of a wonderful team and family.
