I recently had my first appointment with Dr. Kim at Waukee Dental and my experience was awesome! The office was very clean and inviting, and they even had a children’s area with a tablet to keep kids preoccupied if needed. Sarah was my hygienist for my cleaning and she did a great job. I think it was probably the least painful cleaning I’ve ever had. Dr. Kim was wonderful as well! She was very kind and personable, and I never felt like I was being rushed out of there so she could move onto the next patient, which is something I’ve experienced with other dentists in the past. It was the best dental appointment I’ve had in years and I would highly recommend Dr. Kim and Waukee Dental to anyone looking for a new dentist.

I am so thankful for Erica and Dr. Allison. I had a very traumatic experience as a child going to the dentist and getting a lot of teeth pulled, they have completely eased all of my worries of coming back to the dentist as an adult. I was very nervous about coming back after so long and a little embarrassed. They did not make me feel judged at all and educated me. Dr. Allison had to numb my mouth today and made it so quick and easy. They are amazing!

Had a wonderful first time visit to Waukee Dental, the office is new and very nice. The staff were extremely friendly and Dr Kim was excellent, very easy to talk with and did a great job building rapport with and put my child at ease in a new environment…which is NOT an easy thing to do! 100% recommended and will be back again.
