I was reffered to the Cornerstone Dental group by my son John L. Lopez. When I got there my husband and I were received with courtesy. The wait was not long. We met the staff there which they were very nice. It felt like we knew each other from before. The atmosphere was very warm. We met Dr. Malatesta and Dr. Valerio they were very delicate and professional at what they do. I thank John L. Lopez for being that connection, you did a wonderful job also. I felt that I was with family. Also will like to thank the nurse that did the intake she was very friendly. Will recommend the Cornerstone Dental Group.
After avoiding the dentist for years due to past experiences, I can honestly say that my visit to Cornerstone Dental completely changed my perspective on dental care. From the moment I walked in, the entire team made me feel comfortable, respected, and genuinely cared for. My hygienist, Jeni, was absolutely incredible-knowledgeable, gentle, and extremely thorough. She took the time to explain everything she was doing and made what I normally would have considered a stressful experience feel calm and easy. Dr. Valerio and his entire team are truly impressive. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and patient-first approach are evident at every step. I never felt rushed, judged, or uncomfortable-only confident that I was in excellent hands. This is the best my teeth have ever felt and looked, and it's given me an added level of confidence I didn't expect. I genuinely can't wait for my next cleaning—which is something I never thought l'd say. If you've put off going to the dentist for any reason, Cornerstone Dental is the place that will change everything highly recommend.
Cornerstone Dental is the most amazing organization that I have had the pleasure of working with. Dr. Matt Valerio and his staff did extensive work solving my dental issues and rebuilding my teeth. Using the latest technology along with an excellent skill set he achieved results that far surpassed all expectations. I highly recommend Dr. Valerio and the rest of the staff at Cornerstone Dental. You guys are the best!!!!
This place is absolutely wonderful. I’ve been a patient here for many years, and I can honestly say I have no intention of ever going anywhere else. The care, professionalism, and warmth that everyone shows make each visit a positive experience. Dr. Marc and Sandy are exceptional people—genuine, kind, and always willing to go the extra mile to help. They take the time to listen, explain things clearly, and make you feel completely comfortable and cared for. It’s rare to find a place that combines expertise with such a personal touch, and that’s exactly why I’ll continue to be a loyal patient for many years to come.
I wanted to take a minute to recognize April and Allison. I came in last week for routine appointments for my three daughters, they tended to our needs quickly, competently and efficiently. They were able to professionally engage my kids in good general conversation and have personable conversations as well. Employees like this have kept my family coming to this practice for over 40 years.
