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.

Dr. Nichols and all the staff are playful, gentle, and kind, and they easily calmed my anxious two year old. They are also quite professional, giving expert advice and skillfully assessing little teeth.

Dr. Bill is the smiliest person on Earth! He and his staff are friendly, helpful, and fun! They make going to the dentist easy and pleasant, even with a 2-year-old who's chipped her tooth!

Best dentist for children ever!!!! I honestly wished I had a dentist like him when I was a kid... having an excellent dentist as a child sets the path for adulthood and he is awesome. My child loves! Going to his appointments! The ENTIRE staff is also excellent! Professional AND friendly to children and adults. The office is clean, kid friendly clean and my husband loves the coffee selection. Very professional and modern.

Dr. Bill and is staff are so welcoming, kind, and encouraging. My kids love going to the dentist and seeing “their friend” (as they call him) Dr. Bill. He takes the time to talk to the kids, explain things to them, and answer any questions. I highly recommend his office!!

He saw all four of my children and it wasn't a crazy or hectic experience. The kids (2-8 years old) were allowed to be 'kids' and they had a very positive experience. Dr. Nichols is very patient and good with kids of all ages. They love going to the dentist. Great Dentist and staff!

Los Alamos Children's Dentistry exceeds expectations by far! In addition to Dr. Bill's obvious love for his profession and love for children, all staff are friendly, flexible, helpful and simply amazing with children. The confidence and comfort I have in trusting LACD with the care of my children (ages 2 and 4) is a true reflection of the positive experience my girls and I look forward to.

Dr. Nichols saw my 4 kids ages 1-11 today. He was warm and helped everyone feel comfortable. He took time with the kids and answered any questions I had thoroughly. He was especially good with the one year old who enjoyed his visit and will be happy to go back. The office is set up well with a cute toy area in the waiting room and movies to distract nervous patients. So happy to find a competent kid-friendly dentist office.

My child had a bad experience with a previous dentist and became terrified of going to the dentist. Now everything is a-ok again--no more fear! Dr. Nichols has a great manner with kids, and is clearly a knowledgeable dentist as well.
