I'm so glad that I found Dr. Snell. The entire experience was great. She responded immediately to my request. Her entire staff were friendly and professional. Her touch is gentle and very welcoming. She is very engaging and operating in her gift

Dr. Snell is one the best dentists I've ever experienced. It was very important to me to find a respectable black dentist to patronize. I lucked out and found a Queen who understands people from all walks of life especially special needs children and their parents. I not only stand with Dr. Snell (except on HBCUs), but I support her in ANY endeavor she has.

Cannot overstate how great my experience here was. I came in for a regular cleaning — had been looking for a Black dentist for a while, but unfortunately there were none in the area where I used to live. After my cleaning, I talked to her about some pain that I’d been experiencing. She took five minutes to file down two of my fillings and I’ve been eating pain free for the first time in two years. CANNOT thank her enough. And I cannot recommend this establishment enough.

I have a special needs daughter, and it was relaxing to know Dr. Snell knew how to care for her during her office visit. The prices were reasonable and the office atmosphere is friendly, clean, and inviting. Thank you, Dr. Deidra Snell for a wonderful dental experience.

UPDATE: After my first visit, I was pleasantly surprised that Dr. Snell personally called me herself later that evening to apologize for the type of service I'd received and rescheduled my appointment. She said that she'd use that experience as a training opportunity for her staff. When I arrived for the rescheduled appointment, the experience was quite different...in a positive. The wait time was only 15 minutes and she even gave me a Domino's Pizza gift card. I really appreciated that she and her staff remembered my experience the first time and made the effort to correct it. I will certainly return to her and refer my family and friends. ORIGINAL: Based on the other reviews, it appears that most people have had a pleasant experience here. Today is my first visit. The sitting area is very welcoming and smells great. I've had the chance to view every square foot of it because I've been waiting here for more than an hour, with no explanation. I've watched as other people, with appointments scheduled after mine, be called to the back after a 10-15 minute wait. Communication is key and I'm EXTREMELY frustrated right now. I hope no other new patient has this experience.
