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.

Cant even make an appointment
I have tried twice to schedule an appt with this office. The first time, I was told the doctor does not retreat failed root canals done by other doctors. Fine. Fast forward a few months, I am now in need of a root canal on a totally different tooth. I called to make an appointment, and I am told that new patients are booking out 4 months. Fine. So I ask if I can book for 4 months from now and if something opens up maybe I could be squeezed in sooner. NOPE. I was told they are not making appointments for new patients. I am so unsure of how that works but I am so unimpressed with the receptionist who called me back and spoke with me on the phone. I have no idea how doctors offices are allowed to get away with this kind of treatment of people who need their help.

Phenomenal Endodontist
I just came back from a retreatment for a failed root canal done by a different dentist 10 years ago. Dr. Blume was amazing from start to finish. She put me at ease right away with her friendly, calm and pleasant demeanor. I must stay, I didn't feel one ounce of pain throughout the entire procedure. Dr. Blume was gentle, yet meticulous and thorough. I left the office feeling confident that the procedure was successful, and that my choice to use Dr. Blume was an excellent one. Thank you!

Dr. Blume is so pleasant and efficient. This was the first time my daughter ever walked out of a dentist's office smiling and this was after a tough root canal! She really makes her patients feel comfortable and not anxious. Highly recommend

I had a great experience with Dr. Blum. She is very friendly and makes you feel as comfortable as possible through the whole procedure. I saw her for two root canals, one more complicated than the other, and she did a great job on both. I would recommend her to anyone!

I have been seeing Dr.Blume for about 4-5 years now. I can tell you i am a person who has a lot of anxiety and fear to go to the dentist especially for root canals. I can not say enough good things about her. I have never in my life been so calm and looking forward to having a root canal. She literally is the BEST! I travel about 45 minutes to use her and I would travel hours. She is amazing! Talks me through it and i never feel a thing not even the needle. She also has an amazing staff That always tries to accommodate me in the best way possible. Her dental assistant Roma is the best. One of my favorites. They are just the sweetest people and i will never stop using Dr. Blume I give this office five stars across the board no doubts about it

After a string of painful and stress-filled dental visits, we were so blessed to find Dr. Blume. Not only did she provide a pain free and stress free experience, but she was able to see my husband quickly and provide multiple, fantastic references when he needed further work. We could not be more grateful for Dr. Blume, and proudly give her our highest recommendation! Go see her, you’ll never want to go anywhere else!

I was referred by my dentist for a root canal. Dr. Blume gave an honest opinion and said that "a root canal is not necessary." She saved me a lot of money, time, and pain. I appreciate her honest, ethical, and clinically-sound decision.

I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Blume and her staff. Not only is she a great clinician, but a kind, solicitous, intelligent and funny person as well. I went into her office in horrific pain and quite nervous, in anticipation of the procedure and never having been to this office; but I actually left smiling and without any pain! (And my case was particularly difficult) I am exceedingly grateful. If you need endodontic services, this is definitely the place to go. And she takes insurances other practitioners refuse. This shows the high level of concern Dr. Blume has for her patients, which exceeds by far, the singular desire to just earn an income.
