My appointments with Rochelle are great- she is knowledgeable and kind. However, some of the receptionist staff are VERY cranky and unpleasant. Mgmt should help them understand the importance of their role in making or breaking a successful visit or call to the office.

On vacation in Tampa with my daughter I had sudden intense tooth pain. I was able to get a same day appointment when I called. I saw the doc and she diagnosed my problem, but didn’t fix it. Told me to go home and get treatment. I’m forced to suffer for the rest of my vacation. Health totally disregarded. Unfortunate event.

Ibet was absolutely amazing! Her kindness, compassion, and understanding made all the difference during my visit. She talked me through both of my extractions every step of the way, helping to ease my anxiety and making me feel completely comfortable. This was, by far, the best experience I have ever had at Th read any kind of office. I am so grateful to have found Mrs. Ibet and Dr. Lopez. Their professionalism, patience, and exceptional care exceeded all of my expectations. I will definitely be returning for all of my future dental care and will be recommending them to all of my family and friends. Thank you both for making what I thought would be a terrifying experience so much easier. I truly cannot express how thankful I am!

The team at SPDC is simply the best dental team in St. Pete—I’d even argue they’re the best within three counties! Dr. Lopez inspires complete confidence with his expertise, while also being genuinely kind and caring. He takes a thoughtful, conservative approach, carefully explaining your options and focusing on solving the problem the right way. The entire staff is second to none. They’re thorough, welcoming, and truly make you feel like a valued person, not just another patient being rushed through the door. You can tell they genuinely care about your comfort and your health. And when it comes to cost, they’re refreshingly fair and honest. Exceptional care, amazing people, and great value—it’s hard to imagine a better dental experience. I've transitioned my entire family to their dental care and encourage you to set the appointment and see for yourself. I couldn’t recommend SPDC more highly!

One of the worst experiences I've ever had... the quote is never the quote.... the office on 4th street in st petersburg fl is the worst... you go in to discuss a bill or but their recommended tooth paste or mouth wash and no ecknowledgment I've stood in the office 30 minutes and I may as well be invisible. I also feel that they are doing things that may not need to be done... after thousands of dollars of my own money I have found another independently owned dentist office and not a corporate money grabbing office as I have come to to believe they are. Ypu would be better served going elsewhere. I give them a zero
