Sharing something like this isn’t really something that I do, but I feel it’s important. The dental staff and the doctors here are without a question one of the most knowledgeable and kindest people that I’ve gone to in recent years. . The reason I’m leaving a two star, is not because of a quality of work. We’re Leaving Peninsula Cosmetic & Family Dentistry because of the front office, not the clinical care. The office manager and assistant managers are condescending and short on the phone, with little patience or empathy. Callers are often talked over and treated as an inconvenience. My wife is a patient here, yet months ago the office told her she could not schedule or discuss anything for her son because her ex-husband had medical authorization—and then refused to speak with her about his care at all. also, most recently a mouthguard was made for her and the only way we could pick it up was to make an appointment at 4 PM, my wife is a teacher and she could not get there till 415. I’m not gonna run around and make excuses for anything but the lack of empathy here is definitely obvious , Although they will never see this or realize it That combination of rigidity and dismissiveness is why we are taking our family elsewhere.

Dr. Thomas and the Peninsula staff made the Invisalign process so easy and painless. From the first tray to the last tray, the staff and Dr. Thomas were there to answer all questions and give updates at all times. Couple this with Dr. Thomas’ genuine passion for his craft and service to his patients. I recommend Peninsula Cosmetic Dentistry for all dental health.

I’ve started on the Invisalign journey a few months ago and Dr. Thomas has been extremely helpful and knowledgeable. It’s been a great experience and I would recommend Peninsula dentistry for anyone!

I'm a person who has had a life long fear of dentists. I have been a patient of Dr Wisner's for over 20 yrs. He and his staff are most competent and compassionate. They make me feel like I'm an old friend and we catch up on what is new in our lives. Today was a cleaning appt. The Tech was kind, efficient, adept and skillful at her job. I am grateful to have found this practice and I trust them completely.

I’m so glad I picked Peninsula as my new dentist! I have bad medical anxiety but the whole staff was so kind and understanding, they really make you feel comfortable. Luke Severance was truly awesome, and so was Casey, who did my cleaning. Liz is actually the best and she really made me feel a lot better about being there. After just one visit, I feel so much more at ease going to the dentist. I can’t say I’m looking forward to the next visit, but thanks to the staff, I’m no longer dreading it. I cannot give them high enough praise, thank you guys so much!!!
