Children's Dental Center Of Southeast Iowa

Update: the next day after I posted this the secretary called stating she would send us our x-rays and that our son's work needed to be done as it's a deep cavity so I will say they stay on top of reviews, but would still prefer another dentist and glad we found one for our son and got his appointment going and all set up for him to get his cavity work completed. They called first thing this morning while we were still having breakfast. They didn't try to keep a customer they simply were saying goodbye basically to my spouse who answered the call. Odd, but oh well!! We have been to alot of dentist in Colorado where we moved from. Having left an excellent dentist who truly cared about the parents and the child, we knew finding a good dentist to replace ours was not going to be easy.

A friend had recommended this and to be honest I was not fond of how things went overall. I don't feel they truly cared about my children but more about making money. They seemed to rush my discussion and did not break things down in terms I could understand. Seemed to only have one dentist who had several patients to get too. Overall, I would not use them again as I like to be involved in what is going on in my children's dentist apt.

And they keep parents in waiting room till completed, something some here in Iowa say is normal but even coming from a large city like Denver- this is not a normal routine. Overall again I will be finding another place that cares more about the child and the parent rather than their own protocol of how they do things.

My child was referred to Dr. Mike’s office, and had some dental work done today. Everyone in the office explains things well, so there is no doubt in what to expect. The office ladies are extremely organized, which is very obvious.

Dr. Mike and his staff are good people, and you can tell they take pride in their work and their patients. This office is the definition of teamwork because everyone does their job and does it well! I would recommend them to anyone!

Dr. Matthews and his team are amazing with children. We live about 45 minutes away, but choose to travel to Children's Dental Center since they were nervous at the regular dentist. They help them feel calm and safe and then reward them with fun toys when they're done.

We were with Dr. Matthews and his team for approximately 3 years and were extremely pleased. The only reason we’re no longer with them is because we moved far away. Everyone always treated us so well. They made sure to make the experience as enjoyable as possible for my little guy. Highly recommend Dr. Matthews and Children’s Dental Center of SEI!
