Since 1996 my entire family would see Dr. Kunkle. We moved in 2015 and can't find a dentist half as wonderful as he is. He is thorough, honest, and doesn't recommend treatment you don't need.

I'd highly recommend Dr. Kunkle. He's a great dentist. Recently did an extraction which was both painless and quick. Thank you

I won’t go anywhere else. Dr. Kunkle has been our family dentist for a while now and we always have a good experience. I had one filling, a cleaning, and one extraction done when I was younger. My brothers and sisters all had various things done throughout the years. None of us ever had any complaints. Would strongly recommend him to anyone.

I’ve had a deep cleaning done with Dr. Kunkle, and felt a lot better after having this done. I put off having this done for a few years, then we had this covid mess. I came in and everyone was wearing a mask, and I was out pretty quick. Would recommend him.

A five tar dentist. Takes the time to thoroughly explain things. Never experience any pain with Dr. Kunkle. The front desk ladies sent me a reminder prior to my appointment which I thought was a nice touch (I almost forgot). Would recommend him.

Dr. Kunkle has been my dentist for a good decade now. Seems to be quite caring, understanding when it comes to dental phobias. Never had any problems when coming to see him.

Had extraction done, was worried it was going to be painful but he was able to get it done really fast and without any pain. They were able to see me on short notice too. Had a good experience with Dr. Kunkle. Would recommend his practice.

About 8-9 years ago, I had a filling that I completely forgot about it. I guess it fell out! I was terrified thinking I needed a root canal. But that wasn’t the case… This filling just simply fell out. Long story short he was able to fix the problem. I was out of the office pretty quick. Thank you !!

I’ve been coming to Dr. Kunkle for a very long time now. He seems to be very understanding when it comes to dental phobia! Very understanding of my anxiety when it comes to dentistry. I appreciate all his hard work and understanding.
