Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best dentist appointment for both of my kids that they have ever had! Dr. Fishbaugh and his staff are all AMAZING!

After a bad experience at Kalamazoo Pediatric dentistry a friend referred is to north pointe. It’s a little out of our way but the drive is well worth it. All of the staff goes out of their way to make the kids feel safe and welcomed. Dr. Fishbaugh did the same caps on my sons teeth that Kalamazoo pediatric dentistry wanted to do but without putting my son to sleep and in two short visits. The caps were applied in less than 10 min and for 1/4 or less of the cost Kalamazoo pediatric dentistry quoted me. They are friendly, clean and all around an amazing place. They had my 7, 3 and 1 year old all in and out in an hour today. We will never take our children anywhere else.

Dr. Fishbaugh was very kind and caring for both our 3 year old son and 6 year old daughter. When my daughter needed a filling, she asked Dr. Fishbaugh if it would be hard to do, and he said their motto there is, “Everything is easy.” I can attest that it is! He and his staff are wonderfully equipped to handle children’s dental needs. I would highly recommend the friendly, competent, compassionate staff at North Point Pediatric Dentistry.

Dr Fishbaugh and his staff are amazing! They have worked with my son (with special needs) for several years. The care he has received is outstanding, but beyond that, they have worked to get him comfortable with visiting the dentist and cleanings.

Just finished another great check-up with Dr. Fishbaugh and his team! Every visit my children receive terrific care. The staff are easy to communicate with. They have built trust with my children and with me. Our appointments are always on time. Dr. Fishbaugh remarkably seems to remember my kid's interests and takes time to ask them questions. I have been willing to travel nearly an hour each way for the last 10+ years so that my children have the very best dental care from the very best team. I highly recommend Dr. Fishbaugh and Northpoint Pediatric Dentistry!

He is the best, he had even offered to help me pay for the office procedure for dental extraction if my insurance company was to deny. I can never go any where for my children’s dental care. There are so many words to use all I can say is that Dr Fishbaugh is the BEST we love him. His staff are kind warm and welcoming (MB)

We were recommended this dentists after my son had some bad experiences with other dentists. North Point is amazing place they are kind and Dr. Is so nice and professional. My son no longer has meltdowns in the chair instead he just lets then do what it's needed. It is worth the longer drive.

My 6-year-old daughter needed to have a tooth extracted. I had no idea how she would handle the procedure. Dr. Fishbaugh and his staff were comforting and gentle pros through the whole procedure. She did great and is still excited to go back for cleanings!

My very shy daughter has been going to see Dr. Fishbaugh for 13 years and loves him. He is kind & patient, does not do unnecessary procedures and his assistants are the best also. I couldn't ask for a better pediatric dentist.
