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.

Unprofessional service
The staff was extremely unprofessional. Something was said to me by a staff member which she denied later. I was disrespected and slandered.

Mr
From the time I walked in the front door, everybody was pleasant, knowledgeable, and seemed to want to do a make me comfortable and do a good job. That of course included Dr. Mader. He was friendly and explained the procedure options well. I am hard to impress, but I was today.

Enjoy Going to Dentist
The staff are very friendly and seem to care about me. Dr. Mader/Michiana Smiles has been my dentist for nearly 25 years. They use the latest technology. They keep to the schedule and don’t make me wait beyond my appointment time.

5 Star rating all the way for Michiana Smiles
I had a broken tooth that needed to be fixed. I wasn't even a patient of their's at the time, but they got me in quickly to fix it. Very welcoming, friendly and professional staff. The dentist took his time in explaining everything and answering my questions. Totally painless repair. This office is a class act all the way. I am now signed up as a regular patient. I highly recommend!

Doctor or Magician?
5 stars isn't enough! I seriously can't express how incredibly happy I am to have Dr. Mader and his staff as my go to dentist office. I have had so many bad experiences with prior doctors and as a result I struggle with severe dental related anxiety and fear. Even the smell of a dental office, that ground enamel smell, will make my heart race and have me nauseous. Then we found Dr. Mader and I can't even properly explain how much of an impact he has had on my life. Every visit I feel years of anxiety shed off like weights being lifted from my shoulders. You can tell they care about their team and hand pick the best of the best, which then means you get people who work on you with great attitudes and are just genuinely pleasant to be around. I am tempted to call these doctors magicians because their work is Magic!
