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.

Very likely to return
My check in was a breeze because I filled in everything on line. I was promptly taken in and xrayed without pain. I waited about 5 minutes then was cleaned, polished and flossed.

Did not submit X-rays PRIOR to preparing a tooth for a crown, did not submit the information requested by the insurance company and had the claim denied. We paid about $550, she insisted we pay the remainder. We refused, contacted our insurance company who provided us with records and the reason the claim was denied. Since the crown was already made we attempted to pay and Dr. Jolivette refused payment. When the procedure was scheduled Dr. Jolivette was angry and inflicted pain on my wife, possibly with intent to do so. She caused an abscess on the tooth in question which was corrected by another dentist. We will not be returning.

Dr. Jolivette has been my dentist for the last 5 years. She always goes above and beyond to make sure I am comfortable during my visit, and she works hard to make show that she cares about every single one of her patients. I have gotten many fillings and a few extractions with her, and I was very pleased with each of my visits at her office.

She made an extremely inappropriate and uncalled for comment about my daughter, therefore I will not return. Also, she attempted to charge me for a fluoride treatment that I declined and did not receive. They sometimes just apply the fluoride after cleanings without telling the patients that insurance doesnt cover it beforehand. Its only $39 but its the principle of it.

Dentist is VERY unprofessional and UNFRIENDLY. Does not build repport with patients or parents of patients. They use HIGH VAC suction on children to suction saliva. IF A CHILD (or adult) CLOSES THEIR MOUTH WITH THAT IN, THEY WILL CUT THE ROOF OF THEIR MOUTH. She DID NOT increase Nitrous Oxide slowly for 5 minutes before turning the Nitrous up to %40 on my 5 year old son! She also lets assistants "clean" teeth and write it off as a Hygiene visit with insurance.

When i first met with Dr. Jolivette i was a vit embarrassed. Because i have not been to a denitst in over 20 years, therefore i had a lot of cavities. Dr.Jolivette made me feel comfortable about my teeth and helped toget the healthy smile i always wanted. She is very nice, gentle and explains everything she does. If you have any fear of seeing a dentist i suggest you see Dr. Jolivette she will make you feel at homeand make the whole process easier. I would recommend her to anyone.
