    In general, I get nervous visiting a new dentist. The dentists at Lake View Dental Associates made me feel welcome confident in their dental care. I had a great experience here that put my concerns at ease.

    Great experience and I hate going to the dentist! (Doesn’t everyone?) Friendly staff and dentist who fixed me right up with a broken crown. Will definitely be going back.

    Overall experience was exceptional. Everyone was incredibly receptive to any discomfort and helped to make the whole experience less stressful. The break down of any necessary treatment was concise, transparent, and incredibly easy to understand.

    Great experience and felt super safe even during COVID. The staff had great procedures for making sure risk was minimized. Everyone was kind and communicative and I didn't feel any sort of shame, despite not having seen a dentist for years. Def recommend visiting.

    Today was my first visit to Lake View Dental Associates with Dr. Scott A. Emalfarb. Everyone in the office was pleasant, the dental assistant who took my x-rays was great, and Dr. Emalfarb was a very nice dentist who made me feel comfortable. Dr. Emalfarb also made an effort to talk to me about more than just my teeth which is a great relationship-builder to get return patients... like me!

    Very sweet man, great staff who were empathetic and understanding both during my general check up and my cleaning. I not only feel comfortable at this office, but also know I can get my wisdom teeth removed through the Oral Surgeon that also sits out of Dr. Scott's practice (which is awesome - makes travel easy). Overall, after not visiting the dentist for almost 3 years, I am so happy to have finally made it back and am getting on track with my mouth health!

    Dr. Emalfarb is warm and welcoming. He explains every step of the process so you understand exactly what is happening. He also made sure I knew what my treatments were going to cost before I continued. Highly recommend.

    He is a excellent competent dentist! I can be pretty bratty and demanding when it comes to healthcare and he’s so nice that I couldn’t resist but to be his patient. He’s thorough and seems to really care about what he does. Also he does not push cosmetic treatments like crazy which can be stressful when dentists do. I’d say the only down side is xrays are a little more painful than what I’m used to. But still a 10/10 experience because the dentist is great! Friendly receptionists.

    Dr. Emalfarb was awesome! He stopped in the hall to say hello even before the appointment. He was honest about the work I needed to have done, but kept the conversation light and presented me with options on how to move forward.
