I love coming into this office, it is full of the friendliest people. They take special notice of events in patients lives like Birthdays and talk to the patient about them. The Hygienists take special time with younger kids to help them see the tools are not something to be scared of. My one small complaint is that the dentist who is very nice can sometimes get to focused on getting the exam...

I love this clinic. We have had very stressful dental appointments prior to switching to Olympia Pediatric Dentistry. They have been so gentle, and wonderful with my kids.

Please take your children somewhere else.

They're able to answer most of my questions, and the only ones they don't are the...

The office is fine, not great, but fine except for their lack of consideration with regard to finances. You literally pay for visits as you exit. You have to pay in advance for procedures.

There is no compassion with regard to finances.I have not encountered a medical office that has such an emphasis...

Have been going to Dr Allinder for almost 10 years. He is a great and back staff is great. Front Office has changed over the past year or so. They are not hepful and marginally rude most of the time. Dr A needs to look real close at what's going on or he is going to lose a bunch of patients. Of the now 13 reviews here 8 are negative towards the Staff. That should tell you something.

I had been to several pediatric dentists in the Atlanta area when...

Good place to take your kids for check ups- they are not equipped for special needs children, so maybe find a different dentist. But he's been grea for my children. He accepts TRICARE AND is rigth next to Dr.Smith who is a fabulous adult dentist.
