Our Patients Say It Best

The whole staff was amazing, patient and extremely thorough. Dr. Patel’s bedside manner was incredible, and I was very impressed with how much time he took to explain results and procedures to me. This was hands down the best experience I’ve ever had at a dental office before.
Sandra Pafford
With a history of dental anxiety, finding a new dentist to trust moving to a new area was a tough one. I’m glad I chose Vitalize Dental. Dr Patel was very honest, knowledgeable and very passionate about what he does. The office is also very posh, clean , and modern. Along with a happy positive staff to match. It’s easy to say I’ve found my new dental home. Thanks Vitalize Dental
Adela Allen
Dr. Patel and staff did excellent work on restoration of a tooth I had to have extracted and replaced. The Team made sure I understood every step of the process and the implant feels like a natural tooth. Dr. Patel is very personable and he knows you by name when you come to see him. From the receptionist to the Hygienist and Doctor you will find no better. (John Patterson) Great experience once again. This is the most professional staff I've ever encountered for over 6 decades of going to the dentist.
Ned Holliman
Dr. Patel and Dr. Apana are both very professional and personable. Their staff is warm and kind, the office is beautiful, and the technology is impressive. I felt informed and equipped to make decisions about the next steps in my dental care. After another dental office left me with months of terrible tooth pain, Dr. Patel quickly found solutions and returned me to pain-free days in no time. I wish I had switched to Vitalize Dental sooner!

I had an exceptional experience at Vitalize Dental. From the moment I walked in, the team provided a detailed and thoughtful assessment, ensuring I felt comfortable and well-informed. Dr. Patel set SMART treatment goals, Charity prepared a clear and personalized plan, Amy made my dental cleaning a smooth and enjoyable time, thanks to the latest technologies they use. Highly recommend Vitalize for anyone seeking top-notch dental care!

One of the best provider experiences I’ve ever had. Linda at the desk was patient and super helpful with my questions. The technicians and Doctor Patel were caring and thorough yet efficient, and explained everything to me. The technology is amazing. I came to Vitalize because I did not have confidence in my former dentist. I couldn’t be happier with Vitalize. They’ve earned my trust and my wife and I are delighted to be patients of this amazing team.

As a new patient I felt welcomed and that every step was explained very well to produce less anxiety for me. The dentist really seemed to care about me and how I was feeling and communicated knowledgeably. He definitely gave me more ease through my process.

Yesterday morning I woke up with pain in a tooth. I'm relatively new to the area and without a Dentist. I was blessed to have been seen on the same day, actually within a couple of hours of first contact with Vitalize Dental. They compassionately took care of me and now I am pain free with a follow up appointment set for early next week after Hurricane Milton passes. 5 stars for effort, empathy and service from the entire staff. I now have a local Dentist that I trust.

Super friendly, it’s nice to see faces and people with a smile that care about how they help others. Dr. Patel as well I’ve talked to with every visit that I’ve been coming to for 3 years.Great place to come too and they got TV’s on the Ceiling so even if you aren’t comfortable while having your teeth cleaned on you can relax by watching your favorite shows 😊

I recently had my wisdom teeth extracted by Dr. Patel, and I couldn't be more grateful for the care I received. Dr. Patel was incredibly patient and gentle, taking his time to ensure I was comfortable and at ease throughout the entire procedure. His assistant, Juliane, was a constant source of support, staying by my side and making sure I felt calm.Julia, the hygienist, did a fantastic job making sure my teeth were sparkling and bright, while Charity was extremely helpful in assisting with the financial aspects, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Claudia, the practice administrator, has the office running like a well-oiled machine—it’s clear she ensures everything operates in tip-top shape.The entire experience doesn’t even feel like a typical visit to a dental office; you're truly treated like family here. Highly recommend!

I’ve been a patient here for about a year now and the care they provide is above and beyond. I have anxiety surrounding dentists and Dr. Patel goes the extra mile to make a calming, supportive, caring environment to fit his patient’s needs. Every person working there is always pleasant and seems to truly enjoy and care about their patients.I highly recommend this business to anyone who’s looking for a new dentist. They truly go above and beyond every time I see them. I even look forward to my visits!
