Patients reviews:
"My family has been seeing Dr. Sendroff for about 20 years. I would characterize his approach as very conservative. He looks out for his patient's best interests in their dental health while not promoting the most radical, expensive treatment. Dr. Sendroff is truly the dentist for cowards -- he goes above and beyond to minimize pain and discomfort. He has even called us later in the day after a procedure to check on pain levels. His hygienist, Lori, is excellent, thorough and a breath of fresh air. His wife Paula and assistant Brenda are always cheerful and flexible when you need a fast appointment or to make a last-minute change in an appointment. Although they are not a participating provider with any insurance carrier, they are willing to process dental insurance claims. I think their charges are often within the reasonable and customary range. Visiting their practice is like going to an old-fashioned family physician. They are very committed to the patient relationship and to giving excellent service. I would highly recommend them."
"Our family have been patients of Dr. Sendroff for over 30 years and we believe he is, literally, unique in the service and care he provides. Dr. Sendroff offers personalized dental care at reasonable rates in a caring, supportive atmosphere. We have never been kept waiting more than 5 mins, never received a "sales job" for expensive procedures, never felt like just another patient being hurried through a busy professional service. Dr. Sendroff (and his staff ) genuinely care about their patients. He will call after a procedure to check up that you're doing okay and not in undue pain, suggest a specialist if he feels they could do it better, discuss options in dental care giving sound, practical advice about cost, reliability, and necessity. We called him when we were on the west coast and needed to see specialist for possible root canal. He phoned back within minutes with name and address and phoned the specialist to ask for emergency appointment. His staff know you by name and provide a welcoming family atmosphere. They bend over backwards to help with insurance, billing and appointments when you want them. The hygienist is excellent. We recommend Dr. Sendroff without reservation. Tom and Roses Graham"
"I have been a patient of Dr. Sendroff since 1973. In all of this time, I have been very satisfied with the treatment he has given me. Almost all of the reconstructive work he has carried out has lasted over 30 years. Even when I have resisted, he has ins
