We had a visit with my 2 girls today and had the best time with amazing people. Bree could not have been more patient and kind to my kids. Her partner in crime, Becky , was just as kind and professional and put my kids at ease.

The atmosphere was welcoming and everyone from the receptionists to Dr. Hertzberg were too notch. Thank you for a great experience and for taking care of the most important people in my life , my kids Best regards, Hugh

UPDATED Feb 2025: My 5yo son just had the best experience with Dr. Anne and Becky (hygienist). Becky made him feel SO at ease - I joked that she was the Max Whisperer! I thought x-rays would be a battle, but she got him through it without a moment of hesitation. And Dr. Anne is always wonderful! They even followed up with a note to reinforce his positive experience! What kid doesn’t love getting mail telling them how awesome they are?! A+ to the Chestnut Dental team! Summer 2023: My kids LOVE going to the dentist - yes, you read that right! Dr.

Hertzberg (and the whole team at Chestnut Dental) make the experience fun for my 4yo and 6yo. Dr. Hertzberg (aka “the unicorn dentist”) is amazing with kids - she’s gentle and kind and just the right amount of silly. I recommend her to other parents all the time, and I’ve had several of them reach out to thank me after their own successful dentist visits!

Chestnut Dental is absolutely the best. My daughter had a tooth bothering her and they were able to see her the morning I called. Our hygienist, Jill, was great. She walked us in right away and was so kind and patient with my daughter. Dr. Hertzberg is amazing—she is warm and funny, while making sure to be calm and reassuring with my daughter. Dr. Hertzberg and Jill make an excellent team, working together to fix my daughter’s tooth.

The dental staff is incredible, we have had nothing but good experiences (even when dealing with difficult dental issues). I’d also like to mention the support/front desk team as well. They are a well-oiled machine and are always kind, greeting you with a smile. They are super helpful over the phone as well. In my opinion, Chestnut Dental is the best practice around—for kids, adults, and orthodontic work. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Chestnut Dental does such a wonderful job taking care of the whole patient. My son struggles with anxiety and the staff has always been incredible explaining everything they plan to do in a way he both understood and felt comfortable with. He often has MANY questions about what’s being done and they always take the time to answer everything he asks. He recently had a procedure with Catherine as the hygienist and she did an exceptional job.

In the end made it a very enjoyable visit for him. I cannot say enough positive things about all the staff at Chestnut Dental.
