Dr. David R Deforest

I highly recommend Dr. DeForest and his staff! I have been going there for several years and do not have one single complaint or concern. The great news is I have never felt a thing no matter what procedure Dr. DeForest was performing.

Great job as always. Excellent patient care.

Dr. Deforest and his staff are very professional and personable. They always do an amazing job. When your appointment comes up they take care of you in a timely manner. It is not like other places were they keep you waiting and waiting. Again, very professional and satisfied client.

I called the office as a new patient. I was in pain and they got me in the same day! I never expected that! The staff is so pleasant and professional. Dr. Deforest is very, very precise and explained what I needed and what my options were in terms I could understand. He is not pushy at all. So happy to be a new patient!

Exceptional service as usual!!

Once again I had a great experience at DeForest Dental. Everyone there is professional, polite and gentle. Dr. DeForest, as always, explains everything in detail and is never pushy when procedures other than cleaning are needed. His staff is the cream of the crop!

Friendly and kind staff. Dr. Deforest was excellent. Great experience except for the staff in the reception office not wearing a mask when addressing patients. I can understand not wearing a mask when being in an enclosed office space but I would have appreciated it had they put on masked when the sliding glass window was wide open and they were communicating with me and passing me billing documents. Not such a minor point at the level of COVID-19 cases are raging. Would have received 5 star rating except for this. I feel had I said something while there, the staff would have accommodated. I'm encouraging my wife to become a patient as well.

Dr. Deforest is wonderful. I have been going to him for years and his office staff is great as well.

I love Dr. Deforest and the staff. Friendly and welcoming, and excellent dental care. Since moving to the area, I have transitioned my whole family to him and recommend him to others. They also have a nice automated system to remind you of upcoming visits if by chance you forgot to put it on your calendar.

I was concerned about going to the dentist during COVID, but after Carla explained how they were following all protocols, I made an appointment. I felt as comfortable and as confident with their procedures as I did before COVID. Dr. Deforest has surrounded himself with an excellent staff who treat me as a person, and not just another patient. His expertise is outstanding, and I have been very satisfied with his work. I can recommend him without any reservation.

Of the various dentists I have used in the past . . . None come close to the excellent quality of Deforest Dental

I’ve had several procedures performed at DeForest Dental and I literally don’t have one complaint! I have never felt anything, not even the normal pressure felt when a tooth is pulled. All of the staff is polite, professional and always take the extra step to make certain they personalize conversations with me. Justine is such a gentle hygienist that I am completely relaxed my entire time in the chair. I also look forward to our conversations.

I would recommend DeForest to everyone I know! The staff is always friendly, helpful and willing to do whatever they can to make you feel comfortable. I hate to admit that I was lacking in taking care of my teeth. My first visit to a dentist since my childhood and they were so awesome. Everyone made me feel comfortable and calmed my nerves when I had to have a tooth pulled. It was even done during my lunch break! Haha. I went again today after they were able to squeeze me in and took care of me as always. Wonderful people, thank you for everything you do!

I literally cannot say enough good things about DeForest Dental's staff and Dr. DeForest. I have had crowns, a tooth extraction and cavities filled there. Everyone has talked me through every step of the way and what to expect. The huge plus is I have never felt a thing! Each member of their team is genuinely kind and very professional.

It was my first time going to Deforest and everything went great! I am someone who is very anxious about going to the dentist and I felt super comfortable and calm. They are very kind and really care for their patients! Very calming atmosphere as well! I will be coming again!

He milked my mom out of a lot of money over the years. He even started to do a root canal before obtaining her consent for this procedure to be done!! Then he left the root canal 1/2 done after she told him she did not want a root canal completed. Mom has had 3 separate rounds of antibiotics so far. I am checking into another dentist, hopefully they maybe able to fix the damage that was completed.

Everyone I come in contact from Dr DeForest’s office are top notch. I feel at home and comfortable each and every time I am there for a visit. I would recommend Dr DeForest to anyone!

Thanks to hygienist Erin & to Dr. Deforest for making my routine hygiene clinic visit once again a pleasure. Erin so competently performs the routine cleaning that I feel like a new person when she finishes. And Dr. Deforest lends his professional expertise to address any dental issues that need attention. I especially appreciate the wonderful positive attitude of the clinic staff from assisting with making a convenient appointment through the entire office visit encounter. Great clinic! I would highly recommend Deforest Dental to anyone searching for the best in dental services!

First time visiting office. It was a semi-emergency as I broke off a crown and it was in the front. Dr.Deforest was recommended by a friend and I got in the same morning I called. Office staff very friendly and professional, service preformed was excellent and I didn't even cry.

Believe I began going to Dr. DeForest in 1990 .. before being his patient I was a nervous wreak just thinking about going to the dentist (bad experience as a child) .. almost from the beginning I was relaxed in his chair .. more so as time passed, even falling asleep during a root cannel!! He and his staff make going to the dentist a pleasant experience .. Don't think I've told him this, but telling him now: he's not allowed to move or retire until I kick the bucket!!

The practice has many kind, thoughtful, caring peole there. I am very sensitive and they take extra time with me, use warm water instead of cold which hurts and listens to any issues that I may encounter. Both my grandkids live to come with me Dr DeForrest always takes the time to ask them how they are and chat for a minute.

As always, Deforest Dental staff goes above and beyond to provide great service...from my call to Bridget re. the impact of my head cold on my hygiene visit today through Erin's customary efficient and thorough cleaning...to checkout with Arin! Thank you all for making this another great experience! Since my next appointment is in January 2018,I wish all of you a wonder-filled holiday season! Peace and joy to you and your families.

After 3 HORRIBLE experiences with 3 different dentists, I believe my 4th try I've found a dentist (and a wonderful staff) who cared and listened to me. If you need a dentist who cares and treats you like a person and not a number, and would enjoy the comforts of a clean office and courteous staff then DeForest Dental would make a wise choice. The music and sound of the water fountain are just bonus! And to find out through conversation with Dr. DeForest that he believes in recycling, saving energy etc. is another bonus. Give them a try and you won't be disappointed.

BEST DENTIST AND CREW I HAVE EVER HAD I have always had the best of "highly professional" dental care from all the friendly workers at DeForest Dental. The office works on time per appointment scheduled and is neat, organized and comfortable. Dr. DeForest has cleaned out the silver fillings that were so noticeable (placed over the years by others) and has given me a wonderfully beautiful smile of teeth without chips and jagged edges. The whole office cares that my visit is a good experience.

Started on time, which is normal actually, and finished quickly with no time wasted. I have never been disappointed with the staff or the service here. They always take care of the details - nothing gets missed or overlooked. People often talk about going to the dentist as some kind of an ordeal, but I never feel that way here. Always comfortable, like dealing with family.

One of my colleagues recommended Dr. David DeForest. Both Dr. DeForest and DeForest Dental are worth their weight in gold, as, in my experience of dentists, they could /should be "The Gold Standard." From the front office greeting to the dental assistants to Dr. DeForest, each was very knowledgeable, very courteous, and exceptional in their capacity. Indeed, very professional. My first visit consisted of an evaluation. Recommendation: a crown to relieve the mistake of another dentist, and to strengthen the worn down tooth. Okay! The return appointments settled in for the crown fitting and the placement of the crown itself. What relief! "No ka oi!" In Hawaiian that means: THE BEST! Putting it differently and in the exclamation of how a new patient felt after the dental work was completed: In the vernacular of English: "SHOULD HAVE GONE TO DEFOREST SOONER!" "This was "Worth it!" Mahalo nui loa -- Many thanks! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
