Fantastic experience: Super warm, friendly and human staff. They got me in same day for an emergency exam. Dr. Hassani was thorough, communicated and informed me very clearly of my options moving forward. Answered my questions patiently, thoroughly and considerately. Even though it was bad news for me, my experience there was positive. They treated me well.
Thank you, we are happy we were able to help you.

Would highly recommend choosing Academy dental if you're looking for trusted & professional dentist that does great work. Best dentist office in Victoria!!
Thank you, Armon for the glowing review.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Hassani was extremely reassuring and thourough. I very much appreciate the care and time he took to make a traumatic situation bearable.
Happy to hear we were able to be there for you when you were in a stressful situation
Fantastic experience: For about five years I had been avoiding regular visits to the dentist, but couldn’t keep going that way. Everybody at Academy Dental has helped me in my quest for happy teeth. Welcoming office staff, efficient dental assistants, skilled and thoughtful dental hygienists are the friendly competent team who are absolutely essential for a great dental practice. Academy Dental has a great team. My dentists are skilled in the craft of their profession with an apparent focus on comfortable patient care. I am happy. I felt welcomed by the whole team - and it is good to be back on the smiley side of the street. Comfortable, efficient, friendly and reassuring care! What more could you ask for in a great comprehensive dental practice?
Couldn't agree more, Mike! We truly have a great team
Fantastic experience: The dentist was exceptionally kind and took great care to make me feel comfortable. As a very nervous dental patient, I truly appreciated the calm and positive experience. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Academy Dental office and all personnel are very welcoming with comfortable surroundings. I’ve had my dental needs at Academy for many years and have found all the Hygienist to be friendly and easy to talk to. My last appointment was with Jillian who did a fantastic job on my teeth. I personally would recommend Academy Dental for all your dental needs.
Negative experience: Zero stars for being the worst neighbour ever. Leaf blowers going weekly at 6:45 am in pitch dark. Waking up all the residents in nearby buildings. Seems they don’t care as we have told the woman at the front desk. Can’t imagine if they would care much about your teeth if they don’t care about their neighbors By law is 9:00 am . Fines are coming !!! Definitely would not use their services. A total lack of respect for the neighbourhood.
Fantastic experience: Always a great place to get your teeth checked. The dentist and staff are great and always joyful. I am glad to have found Academy Dental Victoria. Happy holidays everyone their. :)
Fantastic experience: The most recent visit was for a cleaning only. Amber was friendly and professional. 100% recommend Academy Dental.
Fantastic experience: Hello, This is Lorraine Henry-Rothermund. My experience with your team has always been outstanding. The entire academy team is professional and display tremendous dedication Thank you
Fantastic experience: I have only been going here for about a year and I will never need to move dentists again! Everyone is so happy and helpful! It’s always quick and I have never loved going to the dentist more in my life! Thank you for being such an amazing team of individuals ❤️
Fantastic experience: The offices are warm and beautifull . The classic home converted into light filled spaces. Professional staff and excellent care.
Negative experience: Very poor technique… My partner is now suffering sensitive teeth after being treated the dental cavity by Dr. Sue Stakiw. He cannot even floss the teeth. The problem did not exist before he received the treatment. If you have to go to this clinic, avoid this Dr. Sue Stakiw….
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Academy Dental. On my most recent visit, Dr. Stakiw and her team of Bev and Anna took great care of my needs. Academy Dental is a warm, friendly and organized office; you can be assured of the best care in a comfortable setting. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: All the staff are great at Academy Dental. Doctor Sue Stakiw is the best dentist I have ever had!
Fantastic experience: New review from Oct 22, 2025 Had a crown done recently. Found the staff to be very accommodating in getting me an appointment quickly and in ensuring my comfort during the procedure. The dentist was excellent...I had absolutely no pain or discomfort during the procedure! Would not hesitate to recommend Academy Dental and Dr Amarali.
Thanks so much Kate !! It was nice to see you
Fantastic experience: The Academy Dental Fort St. Provided excellent care with friendly staff. The environment was clean, comfortable, and welcoming!
Fantastic experience: Friendly and profession staff there. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a dentist or hygienist.
Fantastic experience: It’s a pleasure to go to Academy Dental. Polite, professional and perfect in every way. Excellent standards of care and customer focus. Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient at Academy Dental Victoria for 47 years and have always received excellent service.
Fantastic experience: Academy Dental is number 1! I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to Dr. Hassani and the professional team members for providing such a warm environment and excellent services.
Fantastic experience: I love this office. Amber is fantastic, as are all of the staff here.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at Academy Dental. The staff were professional, friendly, and attentive throughout my visit. Everything was explained clearly, and the service I received was excellent. I truly appreciate the care and attention to detail, and I would definitely recommend this clinic to others.
Negative experience: If I could give zero stars, I would. I had my dental bondings redone three separate times here because they were never done correctly. The front office staff were consistently rude and unhelpful, and to make things worse, they tried to claim my coverage wasn’t up to date—even though I’m covered through my Status card. After switching to another dental office, I haven’t had a single issue. Save yourself the frustration—I do not recommend this place.
Thank you for your feedback. The team at Academy strive to ensure patients have an exceptional experience. Please contact our office directly and we will be more than happy to discuss your concerns.
Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Academy Dental! From the moment I walk through the door, I always feel genuinely welcomed by the friendly staff. It's like walking into a place where everyone knows your name and cares about your well-being. The hygienists are simply amazing—gentle, thorough, and always eager to share helpful tips for maintaining a healthy smile. They make what could be a routine appointment feel like a personal wellness session. The dentists are equally fantastic. They take the time to explain procedures clearly, ensuring that you're comfortable and informed every step of the way. Their professionalism and warmth make every visit a pleasant experience. Our entire family trusts Academy Dental with our dental care, and we couldn't be happier with their service.
Negative experience: Look, individually, they’re all very pleasant people. The dental hygienists were friendly and knowledgeable, and the receptionists, polite and courteous. So instead of pointing fingers, I would like to simply detail my experience with the clinic here. I went in for a general checkup and cleaning, which they spread out to two appointments. On the first day, the hygienist clicked a few pictures of my teeth, and took some X rays, all at their own discretion, in order to prepare for the next day. The next day, a different but equally lovely hygienist performed a deep clean on about half my mouth- THEN I WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $250 TO HAVE THE OTHER HALF CLEANED My insurance, the Canadian Dental Plan, only covered the first half of my jaw, turns out. For the other half, I’d have to pay out of pocket. Now, sadly I wasn’t prepared to shell out $250 on the spot, so I had to decline their offer. I write this review with the left half of my mouth thoroughly deep cleaned, and the right half left as it is. It’s funny, to be honest. But nevertheless, I believe I’d have liked to have been informed prior to the start of the procedure that it would be dropped mid-way unless I paid more. I’ve since received emails from Academy Dental, trying to convince me that I have yet some more “outstanding balances” from the two aforementioned appointments. Let’s see how much I end up actually paying (despite insurance) for half a set of clean teeth. Meanwhile, here is my review.
Fantastic experience: i love this place, lovely heritage house , cosy.and personal. Staff are welcoming and super friendly. Eases going to dentist . Has a great nmassage chair while waiting.
Fantastic experience: Everyone at Academy Dental has been welcoming and highly skilled. Bev at reception on the second floor is warm, caring and welcoming. I appreciate her management style as related to the ebb and flow of those of us who visit. Dr. Stakiw, Anna and Pat the dental assistants and Mina the hygienist are kind, competent and good teachers for those of us who benefit from new ideas and new ways of thinking about the art of dentistry.
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Academy Dental for years now and have always been very impressed by their service. From the receptionists to the dental cleaning staff and the dentists they all make you feel comfortable and confident in their work abilities. They really are the best!
Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend Academy Dental more! I’ve had extensive dental work completed here and won’t ever be switching dentists because I’ve been so satisfied with the service. Dr. Hassani has worked with me for years on a personalized dental plan and a timeline to make the dental work more affordable. Academy Dental is by far the best dentist I’ve ever been to! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Great place , very professional and accommodating. Courtney, was thorough, very polite and pleasant. Great service ,and courteous. Pretty much impossible to find these days. This is where my appointments will be, moving forward.
Fantastic experience: As someone who doesn't like the dentist they do amazing work! I'm an anxious person and they are very patient and understanding and communicate very well. I recently got a crown put on one of my teeth and they did it all the same day very seamless and well done.
Fantastic experience: If only all of our health care could be provided at this standard of service and professionalism. I have been a patron of Academy Dental Victoria for many years now, and have never failed to be impressed with their competence and caring. Dr. Hassani is a true professional, and I can't recommend him highly enough. The beautiful and immaculate office is a definite bonus.
Fantastic experience: I avoided the dentist for 10 years due to unpleasant experiences as a young adult. Once I decided to get back on track I was convinced to come to Academy Dental. I experienced zero judgment, just a swift plan to get my mouth in good shape and cleanings and procedures were all way less uncomfortable than I imagined. I've seen multiple hygienists there and they have all been gentle and fun to chat to. Front staff is also incredibly friendly and reassuring. I can n't recommend highly enough.
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient with Academy Dental for almost 10 years. I have never had a bad experience. Everyone is kind, upbeat and sympathetic to all my needs or concerns. I trust them, they have earned it from day one. Highly recommended to anyone who asks. In fact I just did again today.
Fantastic experience: With each visit to Academy Dental Fort St, I truly feel like I’m in excellent hands. The clinic itself is beautiful, spotlessly clean, and the waiting room is both spacious and calming—an ideal space to ease any dental nerves. The equipment used throughout the office is state-of-the-art, ensuring top-quality care. But it’s the staff that really make the difference: – The hygienists are not only highly skilled but also incredibly informative. They always take the time to share helpful tips and insights to support my dental health. – The administrative team is wonderfully accommodating, making scheduling (and rescheduling) simple and seamless. They’re also proactive with benefit plans and client updates, which is a huge help. – The dentists provide thorough evaluations and always offer clear explanations with well-considered treatment options. I also appreciate the seamless referrals to trusted specialists when necessary, which has always felt like a smooth extension of their care. It’s rare to find a dental office where professionalism and care meet so consistently. Academy Dental Fort St has earned my complete trust.
Fantastic experience: You are in good hands at Academy Dental from the minute you walk in the door, and if you’re handicapped like I am, you might be greeted outside the door to see if you need any assistance. The dental work itself from cleaning to surgery is all well planned and you are consulted every step of the way. If you have a few nerves, you will find the staff very welcoming, genuine and calming. Needless to say, I highly recommend them
Fantastic experience: Dr. Rosy McCrodan and team simply rock. Today I had a challenging filling location completed in 15 minutes as efficiently and professionally as an F1 pit crew. They always go the extra mile to make sure you're comfortable and well informed. I also had a challenging implant that was addressed by Dr. Rosi McCrodan with good humour and skill...a winning combo. Front desk staff are cheerful and the premises are slick.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to this same office since the 80’s and it’s changed a lot since then but has always been and excellent experience. Not only great hygienists and dentists but they also help educate you on proper oral care. So many little tips here and there that add up to help improve your oral health in addition to proper professional care. The staff is so great to deal with and just gets stuff done, properly and professionally.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a patient here for over 8 years, and every experience has been outstanding. The entire team, from the front desk to the hygienists to the dentists, is thoughtful, professional, and genuinely caring. Dr. Rosy McCrodan is incredible, and she’s not the only one... Everyone I’ve seen at this office has been amazing. They’ve consistently gone above and beyond, and I’ve always felt well cared for. Highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for a dental team you can trust!
Fantastic experience: Amazing staff and doctors. Dr. Hassani was so kind and professional. I truly enjoyed my experience there. Everyone is so kind and polite and they really take care of the patient and make you feel comfortable and respected. I apprecite their hard work. Good luck and keep up the good work.
Fantastic experience: When I go there I always have the most kind and compassionate time from the Staff there. Having going here for most of my adult life mean lots! there worth every penny a stand out is Bev one of the receptionists who's just a joy to catch up with and talk too very good energy
Fantastic experience: 5 stars! I didnt know who to call for a dental appointment so i went off google reviews and well this team lives up to it. Professional, thorough, very friendly, and what? massage chairs?
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love Academy Dental! Being going here for decades! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by an incredibly kind and welcoming staff who truly go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. The atmosphere is calm and peaceful—honestly, it feels more like a spa than a dental office, which is perfect if you’re someone who gets nervous about appointments. The service is nothing short of professional and top-tier; you can tell everyone here really cares about both your comfort and your dental health. Highly recommend—this place sets the bar!
Fantastic experience: Academy Dental staff accommodated my sensitivity. Both the dentist and hygienist were respectful, gentle, and calming. The atmosphere was very friendly. My teeth cleaning today was actually a positive experience.
Fantastic experience: By far the best dental office I’ve ever experienced! Professional, warm and inviting, beautiful aesthetics, convenient location and a staff that is connected and well cared for creates an ideal ambiance. I appreciate the way they hold children as well. The massage chair in the waiting room is a perfect addition and such a great way to wait and transition. Dr. Rosy McCrodan holds impeccable, professional space as well as a calming and inviting presence. So grateful to have these folks as part of my healthcare team!
Fantastic experience: yes you have to pay upfront but its not painful even after a 5 year gap, they went above and beyond spent ample time on spots that need it and even made fun conversation! 10/10 would highly recomend (new perm dentist)
Fantastic experience: I am pleased to share that I have completed my Dental treatment, I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to dr. Farzad Hassani and his dedicated team for their exceptional care professionalism and support throughout the process.
Fantastic experience: Been going to Academy for several years now and highly recommend! Very professional, high quality dentistry and super friendly team
Fantastic experience: The best dentist I’ve ever been to. Both Dr’s in this office are fantastic and it’s always a positive experience. I highly recommend Academy Dental to everyone I know.
Fantastic experience: My dentist retired and I needed a new dentist, I decided to go to Academy Dental. I was in need of some detailed work. I was a little apprehensive because changing dentists is not easy for me, but fortunately, I happened upon a great dentist at Academy Dental. Dr. Hassani was wonderful, finally I found some one who was very thorough, listened to me and took the time to explain what I needed to have done. He is very gentle, and knowledgeable. He explains everything he is going to do. I also had a cleaning done, and the hygienist was wonderful. The office personnel are great...from the time I entered the clinic and was greeted by the friendly staff, through to the full appointment it was a great experience.
Fantastic experience: Friendly, thorough, honest(Dr. Stakiw could have recommended very costly dental work but instead recommended that I just have the tooth extracted by an oral surgeon), clean, in a beautiful heritage building. Samantha did a thorough cleaning and was also very friendly.
Fantastic experience: I have always had a very positive experience at Academy Dental. My appointment this morning was no exception. Staff at reception are always friendly, courteous and helpful and Courtney is an exceptional dental hygienist!
Fantastic experience: A wonderful, compassionate dental team. Dr. Rosie and her assistant Sophie have been so kind to my daughter. Top notch dental care, we are so relieved & blessed to have found this office. The admin team is also friendly, warm & well informed. Clearly this dental practice places patients FIRST. Thank you Academy Dental!
Positive experience: I’m a very nervous about going to the dentist; even for dental hygiene. However my hygienist at Academy Dental is so lovely it’s a pleasure to go for my regular appointments. Amber is very efficient and thorough and my teeth have never felt more clean.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Stakiw, Bev, Anna ... all lovely people. Going to the dentist is no laughing matter, but I always find myself smiling and laughing when I'm there. The best.
Fantastic experience: I had a dental cleaning today and I could not be more pleased with my experience. My hygienist Jill was fantastic! Probably the most gentle and comfortable cleaning I have ever had. Based on my first experience, I would highly recommend this dental office. I had a wonderful experience at Academy Dental. Reception staff were very kind and able to accommodate me on short notice, making the extra effort to contact me when an appointment opened up due to a cancellation. Dr. Hassan was also very efficient, professional and compassionate. After having already tried several other dentists who were unable to address my issue, Dr. Hassan was able to quickly identify what was causing me pain and take care of it. I had to have a wisdom tooth removed - they booked me in right away, gave me an accurate cost estimate and the extraction itself was quick, painless and extremely well done. I have had many uncomfortable experiences with dentists in the past, and found Academy Dental to provide caring and excellent care. Thank you to all of the staff.
Fantastic experience: First time visit and felt looked after and heard. Everyone is friendly, efficient and communicates. I felt safe and looked after. I have dental anxiety and they made me feel totally comfortable.
Fantastic experience: As someone who struggled with going to the dentist regularly, I have to say, academy dental is the best! I have excellent service every time Dr. Rosy is awesome but my most favourite hygienist in the world is, Courtney. She has healed the little girl in me that was fearful of going to the dentist All the staff are awesome
Fantastic experience: I am a real chicken when it comes to dentists. Dr. Sue was absolutely the kindest dentist I have ever had. Her team is amazing! Nothing but good things to say about these people!
Fantastic experience: Always a friendly and thorough job when you need restoration or cleaning. Dr. Rosie is a “teeth artist” and will give you the honest advice good or bad and will recommend a course of action
Fantastic experience: I’m very picky about dentists because I’ve had many bad experiences in the past, but Dr. Hassani is truly amazing! He is patient, kind, and takes the time to explain everything step by step, ensuring you feel comfortable and fully informed. I completely trust his expertise—his skills are outstanding! One of the things I appreciate most is his integrity. Unlike some dentists who take on procedures outside their expertise just for the money, Dr. Hassani is different. He always prioritizes his patients’ well-being. For example, when my partner needed a procedure, he could have done it himself, but instead, he referred us to a specialist to ensure the best care. That level of honesty and professionalism is why I trust him so much! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I will admit that I am a poor brusher, this said.. This crew and Doctors are amazing, they explain everything, take the time and make sure you understand what is happening every step of the way. Thank you all at Academy Dental!
Fantastic experience: I needed to get a new dentist in Victoria, BC who accepted the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), and, based on Google Reviews, I decided to try Dr. Rosy McCrodan at Academy Dental. I was not disappointed. Dr. McCrodan provided excellent service in every way. Her examination was very thorough, and she provided answers to all of my questions in a knowledgeable and helpful manner. I would highly recommend her. I also had a dental hygiene appointment at Academy Dental, and while I imagine that all of the hygentists there are very good, my appointment was with Amber who was excellent. She was meticulous, careful and also was very willing to answer any questions that I had. I should not forget the office staff who also deserve to be mentioned. They were all very pleasant, courteous and helpful. All in all, I would highly recommend Academy Dental and the services they provide.
Fantastic experience: Once again, another peaceful, kind and compassionate experience with Dr. Rosy McCrodan and her assistant. The front staff are attentive, helpful and also very kind. Leaving the dental office stress and trauma free feels like such a gift. I beyond highly recommend them!
Fantastic experience: This is the best dentist clinic of the town from skilled and friendly dentists (Dr.Hassani and Dr. Salchert) to welcoming front desk staff ( Sara and Shelly). You won’t forget the experience and it is highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at Academy dental! From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming. Dr Hassani is incredibly skilled, patient, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. They explained everything thoroughly and answered all my questions. The office is clean, modern, and well-equipped, which added to my confidence in their care. I couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Dr Hassani to anyone looking for top-notch dental care!
Fantastic experience: Wonderful and technologically interesting new crown yesterday with the outstanding team of Dr. Rosie and Sophie. An all round great team and, yes, Dr. Hassani is a very cool dude !
Fantastic experience: Academy Dental has given me excellent service for many years and continues to do so. Friendly, helpful and caring, from the dentist, Dr. Stakiw, to the dental hygenist, Mina, to the reception staff, Bev and Pat. Just got my crowns renewed, I can eat with confidence once again!
Fantastic experience: I have always been uncomfortable in the dentists chair. However, Dr. Stankiw is so gentle, kind and knowledgeable, that being in the chair feels very safe. The staff in the office are always pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable. I will always recommend this practice to anyone who is looking for dental care.
Fantastic experience: Academy Dental is the best! All of the staff are so kind and caring. I take my mom there, who has mid stage dementia. From the front end staff to the dentist, they are all so good to her. I highly, highly recommend going here.
Fantastic experience: Went this morning and, as usual, it was a perfect experience. No pain, no discomfort, just a sweet hygienist, performing her magic. Thanks Laura.
Fantastic experience: Academy dental staff provide a personal approach to their care: they understood my unique needs. I had a cleaning today that went exceptionally well.
Fantastic experience: Everyone is lovely, from the front office staff to hygienists to dentists, and they do exceptional work. My kids actually like coming here. They also have the best massage chair in the waiting area, it's such a treat! I can't recommend this place enough.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Dr. Hassani for the past two years, and I’m very satisfied with the care. The clinic is modern and well-organized, and the staff are always friendly and professional. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient for nearly three years at Academy Dental, and have had a wonderful experience there. Dr. Susan Stakiw is an excellent dentist, takes the time to review my file, discuss options for my teeth, and she also respects my needs and wishes regarding my dental care. I really feel like she has my best interests at heart. My dental hygienists have also always been wonderful and very friendly. The office staff are friendly and patient in discussing payment options as well and in booking appointments. Thank you, Academy Dental!
Fantastic experience: Had my first exam with Dr McCrodan today and was very pleased! She is kind and understanding, and alleviated my embarrassment at having delayed dental care for quite a long time. While I am booked for cleaning another day, she took the time to do some scaling on a permanent retainer that was difficult to care for, and it feels 1000% better. I also want to add that I work for a dental specialist and patients we see from Academy Dental always have great things to say about the office. The office atmosphere is cozy and the staff are super friendly. You are in good hands here!
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at this dental clinic. The environment was very warm and welcoming, and the reception staff were friendly and helpful. Dr. Hasani and their assistant were incredibly kind, patient, and professional. Highly recommend this clinic!
Negative experience: I have been a patient at this dental clinic for several years, mainly because Dr. Hassani is an exceptional dentist. His expertise, professionalism, and care are unparalleled, and he is truly the best in the field. However, the scheduling system and some of the reception staff have been a constant source of frustration. One of the receptionists, who manages Dr. Hassani’s appointments, has consistently been rude to both me and my partner. The scheduling process itself is also poorly managed: appointments are booked out three months in advance, which is inconvenient but something I could accept. What I find unacceptable is that these appointments are frequently canceled at the last minute, and we are then pushed back for another three months without any consideration for our schedules. Despite booking numerous appointments over the years, this pattern of cancellations and rescheduling without accommodating the patient’s needs has been incredibly frustrating. The reception staff's dismissive attitude only adds to the problem and leaves me feeling undervalued as a patient. The only reason I continue at this clinic is because of Dr. Hassani's outstanding work. If it weren’t for him, I would have left a long time ago. I hope the management takes steps to improve their scheduling system and address the behavior of certain staff members. Patients deserve better.
Fantastic experience: I have been lucky to find such great dentist and the team who are helping our experience to be so smooth every time you go for your dental care. Even thou going to the dentist and getting your teeth clean hasn’t been a very easy service that you want to do. But every time has been very pleasant to have my teeth attended to. That’s why I keep recommending to my family and friends.
Fantastic experience: The Best Dental Office all around! Dr. Hassani, his Associates and Secretaries are One of a kind. Extremely Professional all of them. I recommend everyone to visit/contact Academy Dental Office. Your Teeth will Thank you
Fantastic experience: An excellent dental office, including client service, appointment reminders and follow ups. Dr, Stakiw and her dental assistant are attentive, and highly skilled professionals - I have overcome my anxiety of crowns and dental work as a result of their exceptional work!
Fantastic experience: The team at Academy Dental are fantastic. I have been a patient there for well over a decade and have always had caring and compassionate care. I would recommend them without hesitation.
Fantastic experience: From reception to hygienists to dentists everyone here is so professional and friendly. I also always feel like when an issue/procedure beyond the routine cleaning comes up, it's always explained well to me what the problem is and how urgent it is to fix, so I can make an informed decision about my dental health
Fantastic experience: Excellent service for dealing with my dental issue. A very engaged and professional team. Highly recommended for those needing dental care.
Fantastic experience: I had needed a tooth extracted and the infection drained! Not what you look forward to, but Academy Dental brings in an oral surgeon to do this procedure. I expected at minimum this appointment would take an hour, but I was very surprised by the gentle manner and professionalism shown in what took only approx. 20 mins. I was given instructions of what to do to help the healing process, and happily left the beautiful Victorian building - not exactly smiling but knowing the surgery was perfectly executed! Kudos to this dental office and its staff.
Fantastic experience: I would recommend Academy Dental to anyone I know. The staff are professional, reliable and honest. The office is very clean and relaxing. My dental hygienist gives great advice on how to maintain healthy teeth. Dr Hassani is incredibly kind, he does his research and I value his honest opinion.
Fantastic experience: i have never had better experiences at any dentist than i have had at academy dental. kind, thoughtful staff (not just the hygienists and dentists, but the med secretaries as well. will never go anywhere else!
Fantastic experience: The staff are exceptional! Talking to the front desk, they are so accommodating and friendly. I feel that all of the hygienists I've seen over the years that I've been a patient, genuinely care about you and your health and they have been helpful when I have questions. I also really appreciate the reminders I get as my appointment gets closer! I would recommend them!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been visiting Academy Dental for 2 years now, and I’m consistently impressed by the calm atmosphere of the clinic. Every appointment has started right on time, which I really appreciate. My experience is that the staff are kind and make you feel at ease from the moment you walk in. They take the time to explain everything thoroughly and ensure you’re comfortable throughout the visit. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a dentist in town, very professional.
Fantastic experience: I just had a porcelain on lay upgraded to a crown. I’m very pleased with the process and result. Dr Hassani is so professional, efficient, helpful and gentle. The dental assistants/ hygienists and administrative staff are superb also. The dental office is in a great location in a beautiful heritage building. I would recommend this dental office to anyone!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Hasani is very professional and also incredibly kind and attentive to his patient. He took the time to explain every step of my procedure and made sure I was comfortable.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a patient at Academy Dental for 40 years. I first went there as a pre-teen when I started getting my orthodontic work done. Their customer service and dental work has always been outstanding. Even though some of the long term (30+ years) staff have now left, I am enjoying to get to know the newer faces and everyone is still very warm and welcoming. My original dentist/owner retired several years ago, but the two newer dentists I now work with are second to none. My last hygienist cleaned my teeth twice a year for 30 years until her recent retirement. I was sad to see her go, but was pleasantly surprised to make a connection with my new hygienist right away. Often being greeted by name the moment I walked in the door, I always felt like I was part of the family when entering the office.
Fantastic experience: I’ve gone through a lot of dentists over the years and have finally found one I am comfortable with because he is very skilled, gentle, and kind.
